Rookie mistake, AB.
Hardly, but you keep on posting how witty you are and how other people aren't, it's really convincing.

This has nothing to do with Beer.
His lack of self-awareness is only surpassed by what he doesn't know about me. :think: And that's saying something...now if only he would.Hardly, but you keep on posting how witty you are and how other people aren't, it's really convincing.
But no...I see you're starting to fall apart at the seams.
You know what I love about that?Good for you. I wish you luck in trying to find new appropriate material. I sincerely desire you to catch up with me. I may soon have to purchase a pair of Binoculars in order to see how far back you are. I'll, periodically slow down a bit so you can catch up. This is my promise to you, TH. You can take it to the Bank of your choice. Unless you keep your money buried in the backyard or under your mattress.
But not nearly as much as:Don't be angry TH, I'm just doing my job. My job is to keep you humble.
If your back was an ocean we'd all be under water.I know you pride yourself on being one of the most pretentious/arrogant posters on TOL,

Truly, this is "Praise from Caesar."
I was under the impression that the holy spirit saves people, not lobotomizing them. You do not get to get away with denying reality just because you claim to have a spirit that tells you otherwise. How long will you fundamentalists abuse the teachings of Paul on the wisdom of the world as opposed to the wisdom of God? It has NOTHING to do with Christians knowing the truth about empirical reality as described by the natural sciences, it has to do with overturning Greco-Roman worship of power, instead he preaches Christ crucified and the values associated with that.
It's not praise at all dude.
You should know when to cut and run...
Great speech.
With this qualifier...
Some years ago, when I first began my adult work life, I found myself with a severe injury that did not allow me to put food on my table and was let go.
After much soul searching, I finally went down to the local Welfare office to get some sort of financial aid.
The woman behind the desk right away began to give me that attitude of people who look down their noses at others in such a predicament.
I let her have it; and good.
I still recall the gist of what I told her - "Look you; I'm not here for your help because I want to be, but because I have to be until I can work again, in six months or so. You have a job because I need your help; either earn your pay, or find yourself some other line of work - are we clear?"
At which point, she earned her pay, life, went on, and six months later I was celebrating to high heaven my freedom from that dependence with my new job.
I was on cloud nine. I was also greatful that financial aide had been there when I'd needed it.
These issues are NEVER as extreme black or extreme white as the ever clueless in his own vacuum of reasoning the extremist on all sides of the fence ever make them.
Case in point, it is obvious in that video that two extremes are at odds within his audience.
He, on the other hand appeared much more objective than said audience.
Which side were you on, while watching that?
I was in the middle - where objectivity as to all sides of a thing is possible.
It's not praise at all dude.

Your threats are quite endearing. However, Brits don't happen to cause fear in the hearts of Americans.
What regiment were you in? lain:You tell him, Gros. Spanked their boy Cornwallis
What was the fighting like and how much of it did you and your buddies see? Or, you could as easily say the West owes Britain for holding on as long as it did, giving us a base to fight from, etc. They took a brutal pounding, that little island. A great people.then saved their island from hailin' Hitler.
I'm always proud of my nation's contributions to freedom and its role in fighting the evil Hitler represented. But I'm fair enough to understand America didn't come into the fight until the Japanese forced its hand. Our nation turned away Jewish refugees and shared too much of the bigoted sentiment that strangled conscience and allowed it to become a force to begin with.The Brits owe us more than most of them realize today and few will admit.
I knew a Marine who saw action in both theaters. You'd never know it to look at him later in life. Soft spoken, mild fellow (mostly) with medals his wife had to force out of the cupboard. He fought with and admired his friends across the pond. What he called them affectionately, isn't for reprint on this site.The old, good ones remember and are still grateful.
Oh put a sock in it already.The punk AB doesn't even count.

TOL's leftists say that the old man with the hammer and the guy at the end are inauthentically black Uncle Toms.
