Honestly, not really. I was trying to help clarify the accurate statements that judoka was making. You need an education because you don't seem to understand what people write. You argue using distractions instead of staying on topic, which seems pretty common in Republican circles these days, because, Beghazi, IRS, Solyndra, and Obamacare.
You know nothing about the subject, I need an education. You just repeat the argument of rocketsjudoka, I am the parrot. Are you like a crazy person?
I voted for Obama twice though is was more because of the alternatives. Obama is pretty much going to undermine his whole legacy for not sending ground troops into iraq. We need wipe this infestation out. Granted this wouldn't have happened if bush didn't invade in the firstplace, but we are where we are.
I think the point is, you won't wipe out the infestation with American ground troops. The Middle East needs a fundamental change in the Shia/Sunni war by proxy. You could invest thousands of US soldiers lives and another trillion dollars to remove the proxies but the State perpetrators would be unaffected and unchanged.
It would take Turkish ground troops. Too bad that Sunni Islamist dictator Erdogan has actually been on ISIS' side (and been supporting them) all along.
I think the point is that the issue will be punted for the next election with a wait and see approach.
It's not American politics that matter here. The US should provide humanitarian assistance and try to slow down genocide but this pressure on the various governments could actually be positive in the long run, in that, they need to compromise and assure minority rights to achieve stability. Of course tens of thousands will die and be displaced and we are looking at maybe 20 years of chaos. But the US cannot be anything but a broker between the parties, it would be physically and fiscally impossible to impose order over the region.
I wouldn't say I know "nothing" about the subject. I have had extensive discussions with my father, who was an Air Force pilot. Desperately. You seem to just buy everything that they air on Fox without even the slightest amount of critical thinking. I didn't exactly "repeat," I supported his argument. Interesting that you can't tell the difference. Yes, you seem to parrot everything you hear on Fox, without examining the statements for factual content. Yes, idiot Fox parrots drive me crazy.
I have an MS in MIS, an MBA, and am working on a PhD. Who exactly is "not very intelligent or educated"? I'll accept "loudmouth," I haven't been able to be described as quiet since my ninth grade theater teacher taught me to speak from the diaphragm. However, I'll put my education and intelligence up against anyone, particularly the right wingers whose projection causes them to disparage my intelligence.
Sorry, you don't get to claim you know anything about the subject when you wanted to put F-22 jets on a carrier. I don't care what your dad did, that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. I don't think I have ever read your posts before this, but avoid all military discussions like the plague. None of my arguments in this thread are even conservative, they are just factual. You might have noticed Deckard isn't exactly a neocon? You are the parrot who just jumped in on RJ's failed argument HE parroted from an article he read. It isn't projection that causes us to question your intelligence, it is the r****ded ass ideas you are posting in this thread.
Guys, can't we turn down the heat a bit? Insulting each other isn't terribly conducive to a good discussion, in my humble opinion. I've been known to "beat someone over the head" if I thought they deserved it (usually in retaliation), but it's truly not helpful, no matter how good it might feel in the moment. Just a thought.
Was he bragging? I thought he was responding. And where did he say computor science was "too hard?" I must have missed it. My son is 23, with a degree in computer engineering and a degree in computer science, getting both in 4 years. He's been working a year and 2 months for a small software development company in Austin, and has already had his salary bumped up 20K per year. How are you doing? What have you got? Who cares? What's the point of posts like yours?
yes he was completely bragging. What was he responding too. His entire strategy after being exposed has been to insult my intelligence to make himself look smarter. Total meltdown.
Insulting each other's intelligence is not the way to go. Many right wingers are intelligent enough, but are fact challenged due to excessive consumption of Fox and friends like Rush.
I heard that FAUX was criticising Mr. Obama for not naming the War On ISIL, I propose Operation Clusterf**k. Turkish Airstrike Hits Kurds, Complicating Fight Against Islamic State http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/15/world/europe/turkey-airstrike-kurds-isis.html?partner=rss&emc=rss For his part, the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has insisted that ISIS and the P.K.K. pose the same threat and must both be confronted. also “Turkey is against both ISIS and Assad,” the Turkish prime minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, said Tuesday. So basically Turkey isn't for.... anybody. And maybe that's the right tact for them, if everybody else kills everybody else, they don't have to fight.
Rather than asking what school your MBA is from, I'll just politely leave it at "your academic background does not show in your posts very often". Good luck and much success with the Ph.D.
