111 Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Do you think we will have to go back? Do you think that Iran will force its hand into Iraqi politics? Will they try to force Iraqs hand militarily? Ever read Tom Clancy? He wrote about an airliner terrorist attack, then Iran invading Iraq to form a larger Islamic Nation, then we go in there and tear shit up. (we went in early in reality and bungled it hardcore, in reality) He also wrote about China invading Russia, but that is a whole nother thread... Quote

Serenity Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 As compared to a Harvard graduate 'conditioned to not react above their monetary ranking' , who surrender their intellect to a torpid community of intellectuals who have never left the hallways of power they shine with their asses? Quote
scott_harpell Posted June 10, 2008 Author Posted June 10, 2008 Nice. Now again, why would I ask someone who's "not paid to think above their pay-grade", trained to follow orders without question, willingly accepts their role as a tool of the State, and surrenders their intellect and identity to the chain of command anything about matters of policy? Uhm... you aren't; He's asking you. Try to keep up. Quote

mattp Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 They may be less likely to support an aggressive military response, Serenity, but I bet that torpid community of intellectuals will be a lot more likely to grasp your arguments about our relationship with the Saudi's than most Americans. Quote

Oddly Harvard intellectuals pull the strings on the Right as well as the Left. Quote
mattp Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 The only odd thing about that is the degree to which people such as Serenity hold them in such low esteem. That was part of chief chimpy's attraction as a presidential candidate - the guy you'd rather have at your barbeque than smartypants Al Bore - and look what we got? A moron. Quote
Hugh Conway Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 A moron. Who went to both Yale and Harvard. Quote
lI1|1! Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 I think Newt should STFU. elloquently stated Eloquently too. Quote
mattp Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Just because he went to those places doesn't make him an intellectual. He was in the National Guard, too, and that didn't make him a soldier. Quote

mattp Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 Does anybody but me find it odd to equate GWB with "success?" Quote
