Deja vu .. Here's TJ's brand of Christianity.. We've made mistakes along the way, but that's no reason to start tearing up the best flag God ever gave to any country. ~ The Duke of Christianity I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to the point of responsibility. I don't believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people. ~ The Duke of Bigotry Have you ever heard of some fellows who first came over to this country? You know what they found? They found a howling wilderness, with summers too hot and winters freezing, and they also found some unpleasant little characters who painted their faces. Do you think these pioneers filled out form number X6277 and sent in a report saying the Indians were a little unreasonable? Did they have insurance for their old age, for their crops, for their homes? They did not! They looked at the land, and the forest, and the rivers. They looked at their wives, their kids and their houses, and then they looked up at the sky and they said, "Thanks, God, we'll take it from here. ~ The Duke of Stupidity God loves genocide, the American Flag, white skinned males, John Wayne, and Louis.. amen ~ Baby Jesus

Excerpts from Trapped in the Mirror: Adult Children of Narcissists in their Struggle for Self, by Dr. Elan Golomb (1992) "People who are relatively free of narcissistic traits (most of us have some) do not attempt to place themselves above others. They are unconcerned with such comparisons. They stay in touch with their feelings and try to do their personal best. Their standards are internal and realistic since they have a good idea of who they are and what they can accomplish (such objectivity is not insignificant). They are not free of idealistic wishes and dreams. Narcissists are wholly different. They unconsciously deny an unstated and intolerably poor self-image through inflation. They turn themselves into glittering figures of immense grandeur surrounded by psychologically impenetrable walls. The goal of this self-deception is to be impervious to greatly feared external criticism and to their own roiling sea of doubts. This figure of paradox needs to be regarded as perfect by all. To achieve this, he or she constructs an elaborate persona (a social mask which is presented to the world). The persona needs an appreciative audience to applaud it. If enough people do so, the narcissist is relieved that no one can see through his disguise. The persona is a defensive schema to hide behind, like the false-front stores on a Western movie set. When you peer behind the propped-up wall, you find . . . nothing. Similarly, behind the grandiose parading, the narcissist feels empty and devoid of value. Because his life is organized to deny negative feelings about himself and to maintain an illusion of superiority, the narcissist's family is forcibly conscripted into supporting roles. They have no other option if they wish to get along with him. His mate must be admiring and submissive to keep the marriage going and his children will automatically mold themselves into any image that is projected upon them. Here the tragedy begins. A narcissist cannot see his children as they are but only as his unconscious needs dictate. He does not question why his children are incredibly wonderful (better than anyone else's) or intolerably horrible (the worst in all respects) or why his view of them ricochets from one extreme to another with no middle ground. It is what they are. http://www.sustainedaction.org/Exploration/narcissism_and_narcissistic_wounds.htm

My concern lies here.. shudder .. it's not pretty boys and girls.. trust me.. Adult Children of Narcissists - Their Struggle for Self From the outside, looking in, the narcissist family does not appear dysfunctional. Notice that the N family history - filled with unquestionable mythology - is replayed over and over till it sounds like the truth. No one questions present actions or past history of the narcissist. Guilt plays a big role in the family. Head games are the norm; little routines and pet names are used to brain wash children into thinking they are loved. Nothing is ever given to the child permanently. http://www.narcissis...sisticpare.html Narcissists are wholly different. They unconsciously deny an unstated and intolerably poor self-image through inflation. They turn themselves into glittering figures of immense grandeur surrounded by psychologically impenetrable walls. The goal of this self-deception is to be impervious to greatly feared external criticism and to their own roiling sea of doubts. http://www.zimbio.co...+Their+Struggle

Did you just actually say that? Really? That's high ground to stand on? I think I'll step down.. you can keep it, cap'n morality. So.. you're ok with Iran making mistakes and standing on the high ground of the bodies of you and your children.. enough said.

Whatever TJ... it is hypocrisy.. we stand on no high ground.. we take the low road and cry foul when it blows up in our face.. The alternative would be honesty, integrity, and admitting the truth, like you just did. A bigger mistake would be continuing with might = right business as usual, like you've been advocating for.

Ya know TJ.. I'd like to believe that we stand on moral high ground as much as the next idiot but the fact is, we don't. Quite the opposite. I don't think people in Iran ever staged a coup to overthrow our government.. You're all about truth no matter how ugly, right Louis? What would you suggest doing to a country that overthrew our government 57 years ago and told us what to do on a continuing basis, or else? Spoken like a true hypocrite.. Iran is largely the way it is today because of things we've done to them in the past 57 years, just like builder pointed out. If you were them, would you have anything but hatred and contempt for us, let alone trust? You have hatred and contempt for them for doing what? Making threats? You wanna punish them for what? Trying to make a nuclear weapon? Yeah.. I guess I wouldn't want someone I been f cking over for 57 years having the capability to stand up to me either and say, no f cking more on your terms, if I was a hypocrite, that is. You just described yourself.. You're the one who has no problem with applying force as long as it suits and yours.. your only complaint is when it's used in ways you don't like, by people you don't like, in the exact same manner you justify. How does that jive in church on Sunday? You're always on the good side of the double standard, eh? How convenient.. If what you say is true, why would I say that Iran has the same rights to use force as we do? How would that suit me? Ya think I want a nuke dropped on my country? Here's my standard of measure.. What is ok for you to do to another human being is ok for every other human being to do to you. ~ wez Where's the hypocrisy in that? What's your standard of measure, Louis?

Burning Sky Bad Company The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire, You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire. Waiting for the van to arrive, The prisoners were lined up outside. Jumped a wall, hitched a ride, and now I'm here to say; Love you, baby, anyway, oh, yeah. The sky is burnin' I believe my soul is on fire, You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire. Ran across the country fields, in all terrain, they had guns and dogs and everything. Swam a river try'n to lose my trail, But they caught me, under the bridge. Oh yeah! The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire, You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire. Oh, yeah. The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire, You are, I am learning, the key to my desire. The judge said, 'this man's a danger to humanity, We're gonna lock him up and throw away the key' Now, baby, your love has sent me to jail But I'd rather die than see you with another man It's burnin' baby, mm, mm; I believe my souls on fire I believe my souls on fire, Working on the railroad, every day But they can't keep me here And I'm not gonna stay I got to get outta this place I'll see you, baby. It's burnin', yeah, it's burnin'. I believe my souls on fire, Keep on burnin', Ah, yeah, yeah, ah, oh, oho. Keep on burnin'

After I posted that I googled and saw some of that.. no doubt about the judge making sense of it.. is it true or a dandy excuse? I don't really see how a judge could say.. yeah.. ok.. you're free to go.. even it was true.

Ever seen the footage of the national guard murdering students for protesting at Kent State? Cops beating people senseless in Chicago at the Democratic national convention? Ever witnessed gay bashing here? Know who Andrew Shepard is.. I mean .. was? Why the double standard Louis? What is.. don't ask/don't tell? Interesting.. http://www.365gay.co...ulting-gay-man/ Course we have no corrupted officials.. do we Louis? Sup? It can be backed up by nothing but hypocrisy Louis.. like I told you years ago.. Reminds me of Bush likening our invasion to biblical bullsh t and using the term "crusades" and claiming God told told him to do it.. http://www.guardian....oct/07/iraq.usa Did ya read builders article, Louis? Propaganda and lies I'm sure.. right Louis? Seems to me the best way to end the tyranny would be for us to stop tyrannizing them like we have been for the past 1/2 century, eh Louis? Why the double standard Louis?

Prove it.. Poor excuse.. We had many a politician as well as citizens killed during and after elections.. Bobby Kennedy ring a bell? JFK? Honest Abe? Why the double standard for Iran, Louis? Hypocrisy? Peaceful people and innocents who are conducting 2 wars on their border for the past 2 decades and who also threatened to use tactical nuclear strikes against them, or else, Is that what ya mean, Louis?

I know your just trying to start a fight, you must be bored again but I will give an honest answer anway: First of all, circumstances have nothing to do with each other, Iran having nuclear technology is an obvious security concern to America and pretty much everyone else in the world. We have to remember that almost all of the IED's used against Americans in Iraq came from Iran. If Iran does obtain the ability to produce nuclear weapons, they will share that ability with other radicals like them. Secondly, the stibility of the leadership is easily in question, from their comments that there are no gay people in Iran to their commentary to wanting to destroy Israel they certainly do not inspire confidence in the ability to have this kind of power in their hands without doing something stupid with it. Remember that Iran has had a couple huge meetings with hundreds of "experts" where they have proclaimed that the Holocaust was all a hoax. Why is ok for us to have 1000's of nukes and they can't have 1? You mean doing something stupid like using them to threaten people around the world with might = right who don't subscribe to your beliefs and actually dropping them on people like we do/did?

Damn Builder.. scary.. glad it turned out ok.. Ya know.. it's weird.. I don't think I've ever heard a "man/women dies or is badly hurt in sleepwalking incident".. but maybe they just don't know that's what happened.. I wonder.

Gee.. in one post you're talking about how the US should ignore the desire of the UN and how our President "handed over our security" to them.. then in the next you're talking about how Iran needs to be punished for defying the UN.. why the double standard for Iran, Louis? How does that work, Louis? Please explain.. Louis..

Hey Louis.. You're a moron, Louis.. Why don't you shut the hell up, Louis?

Then why do you care and see the need to give yourself positive rep everytime you log on? [attach=full]2795[/attach]

Wishing it Was Santana Beauty and grace is what touches me most Good time can put me in fear Always feel safe when things are bad So I cannot let you come near It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things I always feel alive when the death bell rings Now you have come and bring out the tears in me Pain never makes me cry but happiness does It's so strange to watch my life go by Wishing it was Wishing it was more like a fantasy Where everyone surprises me Wishing it was This feeling won't last cause I cannot survive I tell you I've been here before When it's movin' this fast It's a matter of time One of us walks out that door It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things I always feel alive when the death bell rings Now you come and you bring out the tears in me Give this some thought And I'm sure you will know This is the way it must be Emotions will rise, emotions will flow You bring out the tears in me It's so strange to watch your life walk and where everyday I've been burning the candle at both ends And lied the truth I can't pretend This is why I will not stay baby Just like that I'm on my way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLiE6fCMvb4

Yes, "Not Racist Times", everyone is jumping to conclusions based on your disdain for mixed-race people having children in the second paragraph and are supposed to ignore that you also stereotyped black and latino men in the first paragraph, that were from the same post. Yep.. and if they just moved and stayed on their own side of the tracks to raise their kids outside communities that are less accepting TJ wouldn't have to kill them.. Wont they ever learn personal responsibility? Sheesh..

Doesn't everyone follow you around oh great one?

Hey TJ.. I see you've commandeered another thread to attempt to repeat your delusions of superiority into reality and espouse your glorious existence.. good for you.. keep it up.. you might actually fool someone around here someday.. other than Gilligan that is.. hahahaha The true hypocrite is the one who ceases to perceive his deception, the one who lies with sincerity ~ Andre Gide Hypocrisy in anything whatever may deceive the cleverest and most penetrating man, but the least wide-awake of children recognizes it, and is revolted by it, however ingeniously it may be disguised ~ Leo Nikolaevich He who is passionate and hasty, is generally honest; it is your cool dissembling hypocrite, of whom you should beware ~ unknown There's some truth for ya TJ.. Here's some more.. you suck

We had a "conservative" president for 20 of the previous 28 years before Obama.. ~ wez When I would not give you more you did exactly what you always do, you used what was there to try and start a fight and lie about things like the last 20 years have only had conservative Presidents. TJ Reagan 1980 - 1988 "Conservative" = 8 years Bush 1988 - 1992 "Conservative" = 4 years Clinton 1992 - 2000 "Liberal" = 8 years Bush 2000 - 2008 "conservative" = 8 years Conservative = 20 years Liberal = 8 years What the f ck did I lie about? You used what was there and twisted it and lied at the very moment you're accusing me of it? .. Who's trying to start a fight? .. every post you've made since I asked you a simple question has been condescending, judgmental, and hypocritical.. f cking hypocrite.. wake up
