    Hey its what works.

    In the same vein as the stock reply from MrFun's "Why did you hate freedom?" routine.

          Knowing Mobius, this treatment is overkind.
          I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

              It's accepted because its part and parcel for everyone of Moby's the US is getting slaughtered threads. (as presumably that is all he can post about)

                Scary I was going to say the same thing, until I wikipedia'd Argumentation resulting in Argumentation theory.

                Still from a grammar perspective Argumentation is a noun and so is skills. The more appropriate would be argumentative skills, or the like, with argumentative being the adjective modifying the noun, skills.

                  i admit i haven't read them all so i cannot say anything about their content. but why are you so sensitive about someone saying that 39 US soldiers died, and then blaming your governement for it ?

                    I'm not. I am merely sick and tired of the same old same old hackery of Moby. It gets extremely tiresome every new thread he creates.

                    And before you say ignore, I instead choose to call him out on his single track mind and lack of originality.

                      These threads bore me. Maybe if they weren't posted by someone who I felt probably needed to clean himself after hearing about the deaths before rushing to post here in obvious glee, I'd be more inclined to pay attention.

                            I was curious if MOBIUS posted anything worthwhile (I realize that it was a slim possibility but I prefer to live in hope.) since it had replies but I was disappointed.

                                The attacks on me, or the US soldiers?

                                The point is that the right-wing sheep that frequent this site in their droves have no argument whatsoever apart from their personal and slanderous attacks (at least I wasn't called 'clueless' though - that might have been the last straw!)...

                                For a start they appear mentally ill-equiped to realise that due to their thirst for war in Iraq, the blood is on their hands - if anyone in this thread should be accused of orgasming over the deaths of US soldiers it should be the likes of cowardly armchair generals like DanS, Dinodoc etc who have posted their hateful attacks whilst sitting in their ivory towers safe from the harm that the US soldiers have to risk everyday...

                                If it was down to me, no US soldiers would have died in Iraq because we wouldn't have invaded in the first place!

                                Instead we could have ploughed those hundreds of billions of $'s and hundreds of thousands of manpower into tracking down Al Qaeda to the ends of the Earth (nope they weren't in Iraq until the Coalition of the Killing invaded! )...

                                Perhaps Bin Laden might've been captured now - perhaps Afghanistan wouldn't still be the chaotic mess it still is because a certain numb-nuts president and his poodle lackey decided to jump into a totally irrelevant sideshow in the 'War on Terror'?

                                Maybe if the UK govt had spent all the billions it's spent in Iraq on its intelligence services, maybe just maybe the London bombers would have been intercepted before they struck? Maybe those bombers wouldn't have become radicalised in the first place if we hadn't invaded Iraq - cos they only became radicalised after the invasion of Iraq!!?

                                What about the events in Sudan, Iran, North Korea, Niger? By so effectively tying themselves down in a manpower quagmire the UK and US are little able to deal with the real potential threats and humanitarian crises around the World, and consequently people are dying from famine and genocide - and the world becomes a more dagerous place...

                                Nope, instead of actually tackling the issue at hand (Al Qaeda) the rightwing chickenhawks of which there are plenty on this forum, engaged in a massively overconfident ****ing contest.

                                I don't need to say I told you so, because I already did all that before the invasion - seems to me that since you guys are accusing me of having orgasms about this subject that you all are suffering from premature ejaculations for being so badly wrong from the start of this whole mess right the way up still taking unacceptable casualties so long after major hostilities were 'ended'. The were no WMD's, there was no Al Qaeda link - there is no exit strategy except to keep on getting soldiers killed and pouring billions into a vast festering black hole...

                                So keep with the personal insults - it means I know you guys have no credible answer, that you were and are wrong about invading Iraq and its aftermath...
                                Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?
