    What? We still have 122 of them in Guantanamo, 216 more in federal Supermax prisons, and over 2,400 have been wasted in drone strikes. We own the farm.

    "Girlfriend" never answers me so I have to assume she is one of those people who likes to hit the ignore button, which frankly is the very first sign of ignorance.....when someone cannot engage their opponents in debate except the kind where they get to spew their bull shit and storm off the stage before allowing response or rebuttal. I will grant you that she has a laser focus but the problem is not that she is unclear...it is that she is ignorant and her posts lack anything other than foul-mouthed insults toward the President and anyone else doesn't want to "kill'em all." It is admirable that you want to defend her but stating that she doesn't beat around the bush doesn't make her logic correct. Far from it....

    Don't you ever wonder why? You are correct that she is out of lock-step with just about ALL politicians, even the bat shit crazy ones. Why? Because no sane person would ever advocate the things she does. Not even Ted Cruz or Tom Cotton want to "kill'em all!"

    Not true. I often engage Winston in discourse, LSUPride123, Bengal B, Gyver and plenty of others too.....including you. I cannot help that I disagree with most of what you say, but I never ignore you or fail to respond. This is an internet political forum, it's not supposed to be all cozy and warm. People call me names all the time....I don't take it personally....they don't even know me. If you think that I am too abrasive or you don't like being called by the very stances you are espousing then I suggest you find yourself a different stance or steer clear of political forums.

    Now, let's she is she is big enough to show up and respond for herself. My money is against it.....

    No idea. Perhaps it's a style thing....she responds when and to whom she wants.

    I find humor where you find ignorance I guess. I was defending the idea that she has a point of view and doesn't back off....totally different from a politician which is what she was compared to.

    No.

    Lock-step and "different" are not the same. She's not running for office. It's just a bunch of pretenders here, including moi.

    My mistake and I apologize if that is your norm. My perception has been that you just as often dismiss posters and replies because they are "rightists", "cons", etc. I see you first disagreeing with a perceived political affiliation and then perhaps the argument itself.

    I hadn't noticed. ;)

    Lol. Thick skull, I don't got. Thick skin, I got. No worries but I won't engage in the name calling/labeling nonsense, it's a waste of my time. Does it seem like political forums scare me off?

    I also see the humor. I wonder if she does or is she totally serious.

    Whoa Tiger, I hear your passion, and you clearly grossly disagree with what she says; but you're throwing the 'I' word around pretty freely. What makes you the judge and jury of ignorance? Is that the way you say "I really really don't like what you said"? And gee, I don't know how can she believe its OK to use foul mouthed insults of the president on an internet forum? The nerve!!

    She's edgy. She sometimes uses humor, even dark humor. Ignorant people don't do that. But they tend to really piss off people who are overly sensitive about the subject of the humor. Besides, this president has worked hard to earn such insults. It would be wrong to deny him what he so richly deserves. .

    Ignorance and a low IQ are two different things and you need to know the difference my friend: Having a low IQ means a person has a learning disability and are incapable of learning. I didn't say that her IQ was low. I said that she was ignorant. Ignorance is when you have the obvious capacity for more critical thinking but failing, or refusing, to include all relevant knowledge as it pertains to any particular issue. Advocating that we just kill all the Muslims in the world is the absolute anti-thesis of using all relevant knowledge to formulate her position. I know third graders who could put together a more nuanced and complex strategy to employ for foreign policy. She continually calls Obama a Muslim when he obviously is not. She continues to believe that the man wasn't born an American when he clearly was.....except to a radical and ignorant sect of our society who have a hard time grasping facts and realities.....even when they are right in front of their faces.

    So to answer you directly: No, I got it completely right. She is ignorant. Furthermore, you make the second person who has come to her defense yet she won't even directly engage me in debate. All alone, what does this say about her intellectually? That she is unwilling to engage those who disagree with her? I'll tell you.....not much.

    Well sleep well tonight Sally I don’t ignore anyone, although I’m pretty sure I’ve been ignored, but that’s neither here nor there. You just aren’t interesting enough to deem a response to anything you say, you are like Ed Shereen without vocal cords to me. Don’t mean anything personal by it, just is what it is I guess. Spare me any rhetoric about not responding to anyone who opposes me, I’ve been round and round with Red on topics and probably will again in the future…….I guess you just don’t “intrigue” me enough, but I’ll consider your sensitivities in the future…..
