I don't anything read that Floyd posts because of the english either. And english is my first language. The oddly contrived prose stylings are at best an annoyance to me. <p></p><i></i>

GC,<br><br>You may, of course, comment however you want. However, if you disagree with me, it will be a clear sign that you support the Bushie agenda.<br><br>Oh, I did have some questions in that regard.<br><br>If I think WT7 was brought down by controlled demolition, but NOT the two big towers, does that mean I support the Bushie agenda? What about one tower but not the other? South but not North? North but not South?<br><br>What if I do believe in CD but also believe a plane hit the Pentagon? Bush gonna invite me to Crawford?<br><br>What if I think remotely controlled planes hit the towers but that the collapse wasn't intentional? what if I believe that the hijackers really were controlling the planes but were mind control whack jobs programmed to do so? Does THAT mean Laura and I will soon be knockin' boots?<br><br>What if I think that the US and England have been manipulating segments within the Arab world and within fundamentalist Islam, such as by using the Muslim Brotherhood but that US intell actually played little or no role in planning the attacks. However, knowing they were coming, they insured an easy path for the hijackers (stand down, etc.)? Does THAT mean I'll be hookin' horns with W?<br><br>What if I actually see some gray in the world and think that, though I know truly bad guys are running the show, maybe I don't really know all the details about exactly how they operate or who exactly is in on their plans or whether there may not be competing factions, each sincere in its effort to trump the other but none too interested in making my own life and the lives of regular folks any better. Will I be sipping champagne in the Lincoln bedroom soon?<br><br>What if I believe that some people putting forward conspiracy theories about 9/11 may be putting out disinformation precisely to discredit stories that hit closer to the truth? Will I be singing in Ashcroft's choir on Sunday?<br><br>What if I question why John "Men are from Mars" Gray, who has rather clear links to such luminaries as Adnan Kashoggi, became one of the founding members of one of the very first, if not THE first 9/11 truth organizations? Will I be playing Scruples at Camp David when next Blair comes to town? <br><br>What if I think that the neo-cons were clearly helping to lay the groundwork but did not, in fact, hijack our government into starting the Iraq war but that the Iraq war is completely and utterly consistent with U.S. foreign policy for the last 100+ years? In fact, tragedy that it is, it's death toll still pales in comparison to the official death toll in Vietnam and Cambodia. All without neo cons. Will I be hunting Quayle with Cheney at sunrise?<br><br>What if I believe my own government (with help from friends and on behalf of ultracapitalist megacorporate bad guys, is the one doing the hijackings, via assassinations, fixed elections, "low intensity warfare", coups d'etat, psychological warfare, threats, economic coercion, drug trafficking, human trafficking and intense, sophisticated and well coordinated propaganda? And have been for decades. Shall I make sure my "call waiting" is in order so I don't miss Bush's call?<br><br><br>Shall I part my hair behind?<br><br>Do I dare to eat a peach? <br><br>OOOHHHH, I have a great idea. Oh yes, this is perfect. All of you who have the whole conspiracy figured out and ridicule those of us mere mortals who still have a few numbers to paint in, write out a succinct paragraph or two about exactly who runs it, what secret organization they belong to, how long they've been in charge and exactly how they manage to run the world. Then, when I say "Go", all of you post your paragraphs at the same time. Then, if they don't all match to the letter, you can call EACH OTHER agents of disinformation and we can all laugh at you. <br><br>And the great part is, you don't have to provide evidence for this exercise. In fact, I'll even give a template Here goes:<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Anyone who is sane and not an agent of the NWO can clearly see what's going on.

'watchtower imprisonment, autochthonous barbarousness' is like something out of a William S. Burroughs novel.<br><br>Which is a compliment by the way ... <p></p><i></i>

Qutb, Who or What BEFORE the Verb....

Postby Floyd Smoots » Wed Mar 08, 2006 10:44 pm

Who ever told you that my opinions on what I believe is happening right in front of our eyes, vis-a-vis neocons, old convicts, newly convicted (of this or that), unconvicted (Clinton, Bush, Cheney, Blair, et al), con men, etc., Came from the following???<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>What evidence, exactly? A couple of perceived handsigns? I sure hope you're never asked to do jury duty.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>Funny that you actually brought up jury duty, so I'll tell it like it is, Not like it used to be. Just about one solar year ago, I was summoned to appear in my old hobotown of Poormouth, VA, for jury duty.<br><br>Because of my now decades-long distrust of my government, I told the judge my truth. He said that anyone wishing to be excused, should line up by the baliff, and that he would interview each of us privately, one by one, in his chambers, asserting, that whatever our personal reasons were, they were no one else's business.<br><br>I had, and still have little or no respect for this particular judge, our chief judge at the time (the position rotates here, on a pre-set basis). My lack of respect for him is personal, but, I won't bother any of you with that now. When he asked my reason for requesting excusal, I tried the truth, and, wonder-of-wonders, in my case, it worked!<br><br>I told him that I had long ago stopped believing in the "justice" system in this land. I said that I still believed in the "legal" system, as they had the police, guns, jails, etc. to enforce their will. I promised him that if I were not excused, I would show up religiously every day that I was called upon to do so. However, I promised him that I could in no way, render a fair and impartial vote on any case.<br><br>So, dear Q, i was released with the judge's note, which is now good for at least two more years. That should make you happy! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>My beliefs and opinions on "what's going on" go back more than three decades of: open eyes, reading many books (remember those ancient information retrieval systems, gentle poster?), the MSM (including their outed lies & spin), actual attendance at university lectures & forums, considered discussion with others, and many, many other venues.<br><br>But, as a gene-pool recipient of 1/4 Scottish blood, and 1/8 Jewish blood, I can say to you in apparent awe, "What a really cool cheap shot!!!". I know you got it at a bargain price at Mal Wart, because, just last week, I purchased two dozen of them at a quantity discount, myself. They were so economical, that I can actually afford to give you one for free.<br><br>I'll admit that it's a newer (6.66) version of the one I gave to D.E., and, alas, I was forced by logic and circumstance, to politely ask that he return his to me so I could bury it beside the hatchet engraved with his initials. But, yours is almost a brand new unseen version. I present it to you now as a reward for all your toil in the blogosphere.<br><br>"Eat depleted uranium-contaminated dirt, live a relatively long time, suffering far more than D.E., and then DIE!!!" Gotta admit, the new versions are the bomb, and they're cheaper by the "double-dozen". <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br> <p></p><i></i>
