That's right. The iceberg should never exist because everyone in this board is supposed to be adult. That means your emotions need not appear. Adults learn to not care. Adults are logical and tolerant of the children. Adults read everything and respond only logically.

Children get emotional. Adults who remain children then do silly things like need carry concealed guns, pit bulls, insult others, and need other symbols of their manliness such as sex without condoms or imposing their religious beliefs on others.

And so I desperately wanted gasoline. More insults and drunken posts would have been useful. It would have been great entertainment - and an example to others of what happens when adults insist their emotions have credibility.

Remember what started this thread. Policitians could not even reply with facts. Emotion was added in irrelevant posts later. Politicians who are supposed to be leaders did not even have dirt under their fingernails - could not answer with an honest grasp of reality.

It is both fun and educational to watch the children play in nursery school - as they struggle to learn what is necessary to be an adult. Unfortunately some forget that life means learning every day after graduating after nursery school. Learning to think logically and without emotional bias means learning every day. Emotions never once justifies anything - be it a war, illegal immigration, or censorship.

do you actually honestly think you are emotionless in your posting? can you honestly say that you read anyone's posts except to look for an opening to drop your re-posts?

E=mc^2.
Clearly that is no longer correct because it is a repost. Is that your logic?

Funny thing about history. The one who did not get all hot and bothered using 'them verses us' hype accurately disagreed with the majority about Kuwait and accurately disagreed with the majority about "Mission Accomplished". How can that be? One of us routinely ignored the emotional hype to first see facts. One of us also had no problem with any posts from marichiko or april. However this same one had serious problem with their censorship when it was based in emotional bias - not in anything logical. In each case, where is the logical justification stated?

Others had posted obvious spam. They were banned - and rightly so because the censorship was based in logic. Can you tell the difference between emotion and logic? One reason why posts are longer (when they are not factious) is that I post reasons with those posts. No reasons? Then I am no different than a scumbag named Limbaugh. Meanwhile. lookout123 - explain why a repost of the same idea makes the concept wrong? It does only if you are posting propaganda spin without supporting facts and examples.

I see no logical fact posted that justified so much hate of marichiko. I see plenty of emotion. I can grasp one fact that might justify the censorship. But I have yet to see anyone post that justification.

No. His logic is that you don't read anyone else's posts and just post the same thing in every single thread in which you participate. His logic is quite correct. As you just proved.

explain to me why reposting them over and over is proof of their accuracy. oh nevermind - i just remembered that in the last couple of years, you have not answered one single question i've asked of you.

but, i don't think i questioned the accuracy of your statements - that is a different debate. what i question is why you choose to use every single thread as a place to drop the same post - regardless of the original thread topic. something about everything looking like a nail to a guy who's only got a hammer?

you claim that you and you alone have the superior skills that enable you to utilize the "ONE RIGHT WAY"patent pending in analyzing info. you seem to think that you discuss things without emotion, yet you are usually one of the first to stoop to personal insults and name calling if everyone doesn't immediately say "shit, why didn't i think of that? why did i even think about posting before asking tw what the truth was??"

seriously get over yourself. you might actually win people over to your way of thinking if you considered that people who don't always agree with you might not be inferior to you. *gasp* just a thought.
