Participant[quote=gandalf]BTW, I suspect jfiq and Marion are related. Soul mates, cut from the same cloth. Both of them from crazy-land.[/quote]
Comparing the DNA between you and Marion would be a treat.

ParticipantMost people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one’s self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all.

Participant[quote=partypup]”Maybe you’re right about housing & economics losing traction, but it’s sort of sad that people like jficquette & partyup have hijacked this site. I have to admit that jficquette is entertaining in an off-color sort of way at times (partyup just flat out rambles), but I do miss the well articulated, fact-based arguments we used to frequently see not that long ago.”
Actually, I have only posted one thread in the entire two years I have been visiting this site. And I have only responded to about five threads, in total. Does this qualify as “highjacking” an entire site?[/quote]
Anytime you tell the truth on a forum dominated by Democrats its called “Hijacking”.
Democrats have a hard time with the truth because it doesn’t fit their world view as dictated to them by Chris Mattrews, Network news, CNN, New York Times etc.
