The Bully is the US. The money is Oil. We've been jacking their lunch money for some time.

They have decided to stop giving in to us, not the other way around.

Amazing just how badly you can screw up your own metaphors; priceless, really

Cycloptichorn

You are incorrect, and badly so. I was being literal and not making a metaphor. I was talking about that member's childhood. What's priceless is that when I post clearly that I intended no metaphor, you still don't get it. I say something exceptionally simple, and then have to spoonfeed a simpler explanation to you people over and over until you finally grasp it. Many of you liberals seem to have the notion that if you induce an opponent to explain and justify some simple statement over and over that you have thereby won something.

Shall we speculate about your childhood Brandon? I'm guessing you never won any games as a kid.

Any time someone takes issue with what you say, then it's not that you're wrong, it's that they didn't understand. Here you've either used a poor metaphor, or made a snide comment about a new member. Seems you've chosen to be thought of as rude, rather than taking your lumps.

Only 10 posts and you've cut to the heart of it!

Although personally, I think Brandon has more in common with ebrown's little brother. His thought errors make him incapable of winning a straight-up argument, so he dances around trying to deny that he said what he said.

There is a .3 probability that Brandon will understand any given metaphor.

So if he keeps on butchering them... one of them is bound to be good.

It's simple mathematics.

If you want us, as a nation to meekly surrender to international thugs, it seems entirely possible that this is just a continuation of your personal behavior. Duh.

Jeez, it wasn't a metaphor! He was just stating that Freedom4Free obviously has a personality deficiency; ergo the initial post and Pape's argument were bunk. The merits of the argument weren't worth discussing, because Freedom4Free probably acquiesced to bullies as a youngster.

Funny you should continue that way with the metaphor...

After my brother busted open the head of the bully, the bully didn't aquiesce just because of my brothers act of terrorism.

The next time they were together, the bully pummeled my brother until my brother accepted democracy. They up with a new constitution where the bully left bases so he could continue to collect lunch money.

After that, my brother awaited him with candy and flowers. And was a model of goodwill for the bully in the schoolyard.

Okay, let's not dance around it. I challenge you personally to tell me where in that post I indicated that it was a metaphor. Now, I'll demonstrate that you're the one who dances around arguments.

Your technique is very simple, very obvious, and disappointingly dishonest. You feel mistakenly that if you harass a conservative about a post, then somehow you win something. I'm wrong, you say? Okay, show me where I indicated that it was a metaphor.

Someone has a little attack of cowardice, I think. Back up what you said or admit that it's not true.

The chances of Brandon actually having a personality or a sense of humor are inversely proportionate to the length of the stick up his behind....

I accuse you, here for all to see, of deliberate dishonesty. Show me where in my original post, I indicated that my statement was intended metaphorically.

I am just having fun with you Brandon. No need to take it so seriously. I just liked the metaphor... that's all.

Actually,

If I didn't know Brandon and read his reponse to freedom4free's original post

I would think he was justifying the acts of the terrorists.

You know what I hate about this site? I not only have to state my position, I then have to spoonfeed a simple explanation of it to people over and over until they get it.

when I hate something I just don't go there. Of course, I'm smarter than the average bear.....
