Misread the post in haste.
Things get too personal here sometimes. And ugly. And a lot uglier over there than here that's for sure by your testimony. That's why I stay away from that place.
Some jerk over there said that we should round up all the suspected terrorist's relatives and shoot them summarily too. They're all crazy as bedbugs.
Makes folks nervous when you threaten to pull the chain on filters, though. You might want to swear that kind of thing off for the duration.

#9 Businsess were taken over and confiscated during WWII for the war effort even when the owners did not want to sell or relinquish their goods.

Shoot.... during WWII just about everything in life was rationed and all grease and fats, ashes etc were saved for the war effort. Housewives used to have contests to see who could save the most. Many tourist areas such as in Hawaii and areas on the coast of California were put off limits to casual travel, but who had the gas anyway?
All gold and silver mines, many of which produced other valuable metals and minerals were closed by edict too, putting many, many middle aged workers out of a job. Some of those mines remain flooded and closed to this day, too expensive to reopen.

You could ask Schlocky-Lox what, exactly, she intends to sue over? She clearly has no idea how internet filtering, etc, works.
What's she gonna do, go on a cross country trip suing every library in the country who blocks her site?
And Mr Gumplist himself, reaganisright, has added an interesting twist by saying he knew Goldi personally...

I can't believe with an incisive mind like that, and your obvious knowledge of world geopolitics, you haven't been tapped for a position at the state department.

1. What is incisive about it?
2. Let's talk about geopolitics of muslims. In Europe, muslims have committed riots in Frances, terrorist attacks in the UK and Spain, and have committed a number of crimes in the rest of Europe; ranging from robbery, rape and murder.
In China, muslims have rioted in western parts of China.
In Pakistan, a muslim nation, there have been muslim terrorists attacks because the Pakistan government dares to even talk to western nations.
It is you who don't understand the geopolitics of the situation.
3. So, self-preservation is a "terrorist" act. How Orwellian of you.
4. If that your response, for every act against you, you will attack us with great destruction.
Sir, you are being hypocritical in complaining about my statements.

That's clearly nazi occupation doctrine. My old man saw such. He witnessed, but did not have to participate in, in a reprisal such as this. He recounted it for me on one occasion. He thought that it was shameful. All the men from a village were rounded up and shot in front of their families. All in reprisal for potshots at German soldiers. The detail that was called to do it got drunk beforehand and afterward.
Two things show weakness in warfare. Suicide attacks and massacring the innocent. Both sides are losers here.

In March 2001, a US assistant secretary of state met with representatives of Aslan Maskhadov’s government of Chechnya, including Iljas Akhmadov, the self-declared "foreign minister" of Ichkeria. The first encounter between the Bush administration and Chechen rebels was the highest-ranking US meeting ever with a Chechen official. Stopping short of recognizing Chechnya as independent, the Bush administration clearly wanted the Russian government to understand that Washington would meet with whom it liked, regardless of Kremlin opinion.
State Department spokesman Charles Hunter asserted that the United States would emphasize the need for a political resolution of the conflict in Chechnya, the renunciation of terrorism and the importance of human rights. Kremlin spokesman Sergei Yastrzhembsky responded quickly: "Russia views such contacts," which can only have "a negative influence on Russian-US ties," as "absolutely unacceptable." The view in the Russian press was no more equivocal, announcing: "USA supports Chechen fighters," and "Russian Federation against contacts between the USA and Chechen separatists."
Indeed, as late as 5 September a senior State Department official announced that US Ambassador to Russia Alexander Vershbow would be visiting Chechnya (pending Russian permission), as the US government was "distressed that no progress appeared to have been made in bringing Russian soldiers to justice for alleged atrocities in the republic." The official stated that the visit was aimed at showing "we are genuinely concerned about the path the Russians are on."

The whole flaw in your statement is that the violence in Chechnya started in 1994. Years before Bush took office.
There is no point to talking to you because you blame almost everything on the U.S.
You need to start taking responsibility for yourself.
When you can start talking rationally and admit that those who commit the actions are the ones to blame. Then I will talk to you again.

I think of him as "Evap", for the same reason. (That's a quote from a Stephen King novel about this chemical spot remover called "Evap", and how it sounded like a sound a chronic drunk would make, to wit...'EVAP!' croaked the old drunk, simultaneously crapping his pants and blowing lunch.)

There is no change in policy of the shadow govt between presidents and I did not state the CIA/USA started the war in Chechnya only that it gave aid and comfort to them even after 9/11. McCain wanted to arm the Chechens or hinted as much in his first go around as president.

Goldi tries to save face after a devastating round with reaganisright, and comes up with some true gems in the process.

I had an assistant for a short time named Sharon, but never had an "office". Seems she took home the "movie" the guys shared, and lost all of their respect afterwards. She had some issues with socially accepted language, and loved the Greaseman.
Was Speedy the guy who retired at 40, having saved $1M? Never met him. If not, dunno who he was.
I had a cubicle. In fact, several over time. And even shared one in the closed area. So, chances are we both were in the secure area. But there were 80+ people in there, and some I had no idea who they were.
Re the Management club meetings, I think I only went to one or two. They were mostly social, and I attended for career reasons only. I do recall attending a crabfeast, but not sure if that was the company picnic, or the management club. The only meeting I recall as interesting was the one with the Astronaut speaker.
I guess it's only a slight if you notice.
The Dale Carnegie speaker thing was for posers.
Regarding the yellow cup and all that, I didn't notice, and if I did it then I was only being polite.
One day I had a NASA t-shirt left on my desk as a gift. No idea who put it there or why.
I worked a lot with J Gates, the Govt Rep. He had an office in the corridor, and I had to share "as built lists" with him on occasion when there would be a fuze failure.
Tom (the Manager) who was bitten by a deer tick, and lost all his short term memory still haunts me. He was so brilliant, and was doomed to carry post-its around to remember what he was doing from minute to minute. I wonder if he ever get any better?
The Sr Engineer who came from Westinghouse was a brilliant engineer, and it's good he realized that being a Manager was a totally different skillset - one that he didn't have. He saved himself a lot of grief with that assessement.
The job I had was boring. No mental challenge especially after they did the ISO upgrade and downgraded the position. At that point any idiot who could type could do it.
My main focus there was going to graduate school so I could get a job that paid better, and had some intellectual challenge. I finished in 2 1/2 years - and most folks go 4.
I was really sad to see the guy in the front office pass away from prostate cancer the day of his daughter's wedding. He was so nice...yet I can't recall his name. Tall, 60ish, grey hair, silver glasses...I'm a visual learner, so I can see his face, but the name is gone. Maybe Dave?
The young girl who worked up in the front offices (I was never close to her) who survived that horrific car accident, and had all that metal in her back, legs, and skull...and was in tremendous pain...I sometimes wonder about her. She was out about a year until she could come back.
Do you remember Judy R ? (sat at the door near the end of my time there) she is now living retired in Virginia.
My secondary focus was politics. Always politics. I was pretty involved in the 1992 Perot campaign by then, and later the Reform Party.

Early on in my 10 years there, I met someone outside of the office who became my soulmate. We are close emotionally - and very spiritual. I never had any reason to look beyond him for anyone else, and remain so to this day.
There was one guy there who really didn't like me from day one. Visceral I think. I just avoided him. You can't change people or make them like you. He sat just as you came in the door, one aisle over, near the classified computers. He was tight with Sharon the red-haired girl who used to be the gatekeeper for the closed area (and she wore a lot of peach).
But he was brilliant! Brilliant to the nth degree. He was the heart and soul of the program he was on. He designed/created the P-fuze. And I can't say any more about it than that. If you worked there, you'd know why.

Having been an only child, and with tendencies to be a loner at times and very self sufficient, how others perceive me is really only "just interesting".
I've always been truthful, outspoken, opinionated and bright. Sometimes that offends people. I just never saw the point in wasting time sucking up and saying what I had to say in bits and pieces. In THAT respect (the outspoken part) I really identify with the "Bones" character, but I wasn't quite as offensive as her (I hope).
I'm afraid I have no idea who of the 80+ you could be if you were in that closed area.

I was commenting to Destro, not you. Destro, for years, has literally blamed almost everything bad on the U.S.

If the blame fits...

I'm damned if I know. But a policy of blowing everyone with any connection to insurgents to hell will, in the long run, lead to general opposition to us. And that is what is happening.
First US official resigns over Afghanistan war
Matthew Hoh, 36, a former captain in the Marine Corps who fought in Iraq before joining the US State Department, resigned from his post as the senior US civilian in Zabul province, a Taleban stronghold in Afghanistan. He said that he believed the war only fuelled the insurgency, the Washington Post reports.
"I have lost understanding of and confidence in the strategic purposes of the United States' presence in Afghanistan," Mr Hoh wrote in his resignation letter, dated September 10.
"I have doubts and reservations about our current strategy and planned future strategy, but my resignation is based not upon how we are pursuing this war, but why and to what end."
He said that many Afghans were fighting the United States largely because its troops were there. While the Taleban was a malign presence, and al-Qaeda needed to be confronted, he said, the US was asking its troops to die in Afghanistan for what was essentially a far-off civil war

War calls him Otis for the town drunk on Andy Griffith.
