Libra says to Doc,"I do know your football preference and that doesn't make you bad."
Yes, it does!
Bunni says,"Now Neroter is displaying delusions of grandeur. Delusions, paranoia, intense obsession with lesbian sex, and garbled diatribes that make little sense. The evolving picture is not a pretty one..."
Ditto, but ya gotta laugh at the mental picture of her pounding the key board, spit flying, eyes rolling, and the dictionary at hand(for the big words).

HELLO FENIX!!! So I finally meet my mystery person.LOL
From the first day I signed up with Vendio and introduced myself here there have been a few who questioned the validity of my ID. But they didn't say who I was supposed to be..
So Fenix, I've gotta ask you.. what the he!! did you do to these people to make them Love you so much!? LOL
I don't know if my posts sound the same as yours, or if it is because I am a Democrat or if it is because I align myself with some of the other more crusty types here...it's been a puzzle..
Well, now that I know who I am...LOL.. I will have to go back and read your posts and see what all the hullabaloo is all about.

Dr.D - Just my opinion....but I always enjoyed fenix's posts....she had the ability, as you appear to also share, to discuss and disagree with issues without making it into personal insults. I've always considered her a moderate democrat...a fair minded person who's posts I long enjoyed.
As far as helen comparing you to skylite and maggie....I think by showing her approval/supports of their posts, she has highly insulted yours.

yellowstone and neroter -
Just so you both know...I believe that by the constant mis-characterizations that cf uses - the ones that pertain to me personally - only shows her own twisted thinking, sad lack of civility towards others and an inability to discuss issues without turning each of her posts into a 'slug-fest'.
But I do appreciate reading that others have taken notice of her continuing immature, distorted rantings.
Thank you.

LOL DrD - my appologies for any problems the paranoia of others has caused you . aS for what I did to inspire such love... it's my dazzling beauty, quick wit, and enclopedic knowledge of seemingly uselss information that made me the beloved diva that I am (did I forget to mention the pinch of sarcasm tossed in for good measure?).
From Linda's (thank you for your kind word BTW Linda) comments it sounds as though you picked up my dropped baton and have been carrying well.
BTW - anyone who accused you of being me must have left thier detecting skills at the door. I see no evidence of my atrocious typing skills anywhere in your posts.

Along with the other qualities fenix has mentioned I'd add she's the QUEEN of run on sentences....and I aspire to take that title away from her, someday.

Linda, thank you. I appreciate your comments. And yes, I do like to look at the issues from every possible angle before I form an opinion. And yes, often times the things I choose to believe, cross over Party Lines...
I have no idea who Fenix or all the others I have been compared to are. I have never compared myself to any of them.. and in another thread.. Twelvepole took it upon himself to let me know that I was to "Stupid" to be any of them...while Helen tells me I should be proud to be thought of in such a high caliber group. LOL looks like I just can't win.. so I will just continue along and be myself.. that's good enough for me... LOL... Doc

I wrote to Drdolitte on anoter thead, "I don't see anything in your posts that would align you with any of those posters so I would guess, none of the above. You should be proud though to be considered in that high caliber group. Whoever is behind the Maggie persona has the ability to create a Drdolittle, however."
Then I added a LOL to let him know that I was joking.
Linda writes..As far as helen comparing you to skylite and maggie....I think by showing her approval/supports of their posts, she has highly insulted yours.
Damit linda, why don't you get your facts straight before you post. I stated after reading Drdolittles signature containing the names of several posters that I did not see anything in his posts that would align him with any of those posters.

Fenix.. I don't know if I should kiss you or kick your butt! LOL.. But I am sure glad you have returned.. now at least I will have one less of my several personalities to defend..LOL.. now if only Spaz, Maggie, Borrillo, skylite and the others would pop in and say hello.. maybe then people here could begin to hate me for just being myself!! Doc
Just read that post again Helen..ouch, again!

Thanks Bunni - it's a part time at best return - I have inherited a stuffed garage, basement and storage unit to be cleared out, organized and archived (HUGE boxes of photos, negs and slides) or sold off with the threat of more to come. I climbed out temporarily for my return but must dive back in soon.

Drdolittle, My focus of comparison was on content and delivery. Skylite usually posted topics that the right wing here disliked immensely including long texts of articles. The posts of Spazmodeus and Borillar don't resemble yours either in content or delivery...Of course the mention of Maggie was meant to be humorous. ( did you see the "LOL"?} No harm intended.

Hi Linda. Reference your post: Just so you both know...I believe that by the constant mis-characterizations that cf uses -the ones that pertain to me personally - only shows her own twisted thinking, sad lack of civility towards others and an inability to discuss issues without turning each of her posts into a 'slug-fest'.

How could ANYBODY NOT notice? I've never seen such bitter biddies get so fixiated on a person because they dont agree with someone else's opinions!! The immaturity level is unreal!! You can almost just tell who that is and that they've never had children or any valid relationships themselves because of the way they act toward people. Its like they have never gotten around to growing-up even though they are supposed adults! lol

FIRST LINDA,
YOU lie! YOU defended torture of children in the Iraqi prisons. It's on record here unless you did some editing!
YOU did your "LOL" when Bigpeepea reported the total loss of life and wounded in Iraq. It's on record here unless you did some editing!
Excuse me, but anyone who can have these attitudes is the "twisted" one. But I'm sure you wouldn't agree because you're so deviant.
And NEXT , Neroter says, The immaturity level is unreal!! You can almost just tell who that is and that they've never had children or any valid relationships themselves because of the way they act toward people. Its like they have never gotten around to growing-up even though they are supposed adults! lol "
Ok,Little Miss Rubber Manure Hat Bunnomatic , I think enough people here have seen your rabid garbled posts to judge your level of maturity, not to mention that lovely poem Monty Python FORCED you to post using every slang word for penis.
You want to be believable when you judge someone on whether or not they had children ???
Where did ya learn that ...,from Dr.Phil?
Neroter , your knuckles are dragging again!
Now , pull your nose out of Linda's asp and let's have another mature rant from you....maybe something mature about "wigglies and ballz".
posted on August 27, 2004 05:59:48 PM new
Drdolittle, I haven't been paying a lot of attention lately so I don't know who thought you were different personalities. Whoever did compare you to those posters simply didn't know them well.
Spazmodeus and Borillar aren't registered here as far as I know and besides, they aren't puppetmasters. Furthermore, none of the people on your list would have been misled by Linda when she suggested on this thread that you should be insulted by my remark. In your case, that can be explained by inexperience since you've only been here less than a month. So, you are really doing OK!!!

What does putting more troops in have to do with torturing children ?
I was addressing the thread topic which is 'Another reason to get the H out of Iraq'. Just pointing out that won't be happening under a kerry administration either.

Plus I always notice that the dems never seem to have any doubt about actions our country gets accused of - it's an automatic GUILTY verdict!!! If someone reports we've done something terrible....the left automatically believes it...hook, line and sinker. No doubt in their minds it's all true....and no need to hear or listen to the other side...OUR side of the story.
Guess you all believe young children haven't been raised with this hatred of our Country.....and that they'd never, ever be capable of attempting to kill our soldiers....which might lead to their arrest. Guess no one even thinks they could possibly be lying about the charges being made....NOPE....we're automatically GUILTY.

The reality of children and war. And not just in THIS war....but we've read about it time and time again with Palistine children too.
US Troops Might End Up Fighting Iraqi Child Soldiers
By Derwin Pereira, SINGAPORE STRAITS TIMES, Tuesday, March 18, 2003
The Iraqi government has trained children as young as 10 to fight through ambushes, sniping, and terrorist-type operations. Now, coalition soldiers may be forced to confront the nightmare of armed children.
AMERICAN GIs may have a psychological battle on their hands if they invade Iraq.
Iraqi President Saddam Hussein has trained children - some as young as 10--to confront them in small-scale ambushes, sniping, roadblocks and terrorist-type operations behind the battle lines.
A recent report from the respected Washington-based Brookings Institute suggested that these 'child soldiers' could become problematic for US troops even if they have overwhelming military superiority over Baghdad.
The report noted: 'Because Iraq's child soldiers have been rigorously indoctrinated by the regime, the flow of the war and even the disintegration of resistance by regular Iraqi military forces may have little impact on their actions.'
The presence of children on the battlefield adds to the overall confusion of battle. Child soldiers could slow the progress of US forces, particularly when operating in an urban environment, and needlessly add to casualty totals on both sides.
Complicating this, it added, was the impact this would have on public opinion--especially in the Arab world.
"The US should expect that these children would be portrayed in the Muslim press as heroic martyrs defending their homes against the American Goliath," said military analyst Peter Singer, who authored the report.
The report disclosed that Mr. Saddam had laid the groundwork for the use of child soldiers over the last 10 years by extensive recruitment and training.
In addition to the boot camps, Iraq has also organised several child soldier units.
Some of these outfits fall under the rubric of the Futuwah or Youth Vanguard movement, a Ba'ath party organ formed in the late 1970s and aimed at setting up a paramilitary organisation among children at secondary school level.
Dr. Singer said that units of this force were even pressed into service during the nadir of Iraqi fortunes in the war against Iran in the mid-1980s.
The most important Iraqi child soldier unit, however, is the Ashbal Saddam or Saddam's Lion Cubs that was formed after the 1991 Gulf War defeat. There are an estimated 8,000 members in Baghdad alone now.
These involve boys between the ages of 10 and 15, who attend military training camps and learn the use of small arms and infantry tactics.
The camps involve as much as 14 hours of training and political indoctrination every day. They also employ training techniques intended to desensitise the youth to violence, including frequent beatings and deliberate cruelty to animals.
The Ashbal Saddam also acts as a feeder programme to the 'Fidayin Saddam' or 'Saddam's Men of Sacrifice'. The Fidayin, one of many internal security services Baghdad employs to intimidate its people, is a paramilitary organisation controlled by Mr. Saddam's eldest son Uday.
The report noted that historically, fighting child soldiers have often proven "demoralising" for professional troops and affected their unit cohesion.
For example, American troops fighting the Hitler Jugend or Hitler Youth in 1945 had the lowest morale of an US forces during the entire course of war.
Likewise, British forces operating in West Africa in 2001 suffered clinical depression and stress disorder after facing youngsters in battle.
Dr. Singer said that the challenge for American troops was to prepare for the unthinkable--confronting children in war.
This included coming up with better rules of engagement and psychological operations to convince these youths to leave their military units.
"In a war against Iraq, US troops will be put into a situation where they face real and serious threats from opponents whom they generally would prefer not to harm.
"Because of the increasing simplicity and lethality of modern small arms, child soldiers cannot be dismissed as military threats. A bullet from the gun of a 14-year-old can kill just as well as one from a 40-year-old."

helen - Please don't tell me you're going to start your cussin' again.
To make it easier for you to understand, helen, you said: You should be proud though to be considered in that high caliber group.
My point was to make Dr. D. aware that I do not see skylite nor maggie posts as being "high caliber" posts the way you obviously did/do.
To compare his/her posts to them WAS a TOTAL insult, imo. He has NEVER acted the way they did to other posters.

This is what I said to drdolittle, Linda.
"I don't see anything in your posts that would align you with any of those posters so I would guess, none of the above. You should be proud though to be considered in that high caliber group. Whoever is behind the Maggie persona has the ability to create a Drdolittle, however."
Then I added a LOL! to let him know that I was joking.
Then you slip in like a weasel and say...
As far as helen comparing you to skylite and maggie....I think by showing her approval/supports of their posts, she has highly insulted yours.
Now, lets see...what could your motive be in making that weasel remark? Did you intend to lead drdolittle to believe that he was insulted? I should think that he would have sense enough to draw his own conclusion.

Drdolittle
When I wrote my posts about the possibility of you being someone else I did not mention any names but I can asure you that I was not refering to Fenix03.
Hi Fenix03
I think that everyone really does know who I was refering to and there is still no need to mention a name. All anyone has to do is to go look up threads that she posted in and then right click on her smilies and they will see the similarity to your smilies.
To me anyways it seems kinda coincedental that you arrived here about the same time that she left and that your smilies are from the same place. A place that they are purchased from, rather than being free from a free smilie site, like most people here use.
As I said before, maybe you are this other person and maybe you aren't. If you really aren't then you have my most sincere appolgy, but I really don't think I am wrong.
posted on August 27, 2004 06:39:07 PM new
I would certainly not describe myself as a weasel, helen. But I do understand it is impossible for you, at times, to hold a civil conversation with me when you get your panties all bunched up for whatever reason.
First cussin' now calling names. tsk...tsk...tsk.
Did you intend to lead drdolittle to believe that he was insulted?
I think Dr.D is a big boy or girl who can form their own conclusions. I was adding my take to your definition of what being 'high caliber' means to ME. I think that was pretty clear.
I was just adding my own comments....are you not allowing that tonight, helen?
I should think that he would have sense enough to draw his own conclusion.
I agree...[don't faint on us now ] and he/she can do that in a more informed way when he/she has different points of views to use to draw his/her own conclusion.
I'm sure your intent, helen, isn't to be sexist by assuming Dr.D is a he, are you helen?
I've not seen Dr.D make mention of a specific gender. But maybe I missed it.
posted on August 27, 2004 06:47:50 PM new
Yes, I believe that was a weasel remark along with a misleading characterization of my comment. You can try to cover it up but if anyone reads my remark previous to yours, it's clear as a bell what you intended to do.
Let's see, I've said damit. Do they call that "cussin" in your neighborhood?

I accept your apology Yellowstone. But you made a little mistake, my boy, when you said that those smilies could only be bought..get my point? LOL I think you have discounted that statement youself..LOL but.. I hope that all this crap can end so my own voice can be heard.
Now, Yellowstone, Helen, Linda, Crowfarm..etc.. how about jumping over to my new thread and place your vote.. Doc
Just be yourself and let the chips fall where they may.
