@JTT,

i know what a search engine is, i thought i knew what i was talking about regarding that situation, maybe i did, maybe i didn't, i don't know, and as far as kerry is concerned i don't really care, as i've stated, he's a nonentity

i don't take others posts seriously, i don't expect them to take mine as gospel, if i really care about something i will look into it

Ummmm, Ican, I believe you missed this post from MJ;

Quote:

It's no secret--it's widely known. The CIA guys published books about it. The US and Britain overthrew Mohammed Mosaddegh, because he wanted to nationalize the very one-sided deal for oil the Brits had imposed on the country in 1913. We dragooned the Shah into it and lavishly backed him and his hated secret police for the next quarter century for going along with the coup. Go to wikipedia and read the article on Mosaddegh if you don't believe it--there's a lot of detail there.

Incidentally, that's not the only country or free election we overthrew-

It's two pages back, in case you're at all interested in the truth.

Hey Ican, since you and Okie live in a world where tax cuts are tax increases, black is white, and right is wrong, here's some more solid info for you. I know this is going to sound crazy, but I heard on the Glen Beck show that our bodies have changed so much in response to all the preservatives in our food that rat poison is actually good for you now! I saw it on the Glen Beck show, so how could it be wrong? You can drink the stuff now! Let us know how it tastes.

God Bless Glen Beck.

@djjd62,

That's a pretty ******* lazy attitude. If you're not willing to do any heavy lifting, perhaps you should consider keeping your mouth shut when it comes to calling someone a liar without going to that tremendously onerous burden of clicking your mouse a few times.

You don't go about it in any way, dj. You make a pretense that you do, but your little inane jibes have all been done before, millions of times, by Americans themselves.

i don't pretend to be original, very little is, there are only so many ways to say that all politicians are scumbags

That's the miracle of the search engine. There's no need for originality. There are numerous researchers who have done a great deal of homework. There is a desperate need for some floodlights that will show what's already out there.

@JTT,

The problem is that so many here don't bother to look for all those factual information that are readily available. If they do, it doesn't show up in their opinions.

He pulls them out of thin air or makes them up, JTT. That is part of the reason I have dyslexia on ignore. The truth is I was not an officer, I was a drafted guy that attained Spec 4 in Vietnam before finishing my tour of duty, as part of the infantry units of the Big Red One and later the 25th Division after the Ist Division was withdrawn from country by Nixon. The First operated out of Lai Khe and the 25th out of Chu Chi, if my memory serves me correctly, so I don't recall ever visiting Saigon at all, and if any of our convoys encountered it at all, it was only the fringe of it. And I am not a beer drinker, nor did I visit any "Saigon hooches." Apparently dys makes a habit of making things up. I have never been able to glean much of anything worthwhile out of his posts anyway, so no loss with having him on ignore.

The truth is dyslexia is a fraud.

Look who's talking about pulling something out of a hat; the opinionated know-it-all who has it all wrong.
