		<description>some people are very easy to rule because they question nothing and buy what they are told. Andy is Bush&#039;s favourite citizen : the unthinking serf. And talking of brainwashed ranting extremeists? Well, this may be the pot calling the kettle black, but our kettle is very shiny, and we are proud of it.</description>

		<description>Ross can continue to be foppish and inappropriate however I do wish our president acted like &quot;an educated adult who has done his homework instead of brain-washed, raving extremist&quot; that I could take &quot;seriously someday&quot;.</description>

		<description>Thanks Andy, I appreciate your comments. 

Now, to treat what you&#039;re saying seriously, I linked to the relevant articles, assuming in this case that they&#039;d speak for me, add the facts and background, thus laying the groundwork for valid criticism. Also, I (perhaps wrongly) assume that most people here are familiar with what I&#039;ve written before, and thus, I don&#039;t actually need to add billions of footnotes each post. You can read through the site and determine for yourself if what I&#039;ve written constitutes valid criticism. You might also note when I&#039;m ranting, for catharsis and Choir-preachings sake. And you might try actually addressing the points made, because &#039;round here, we like it when facts go to war.

Unfortunately, it is true that I am actually quite stupid and possess, at best, a rudimentary education, so I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll be taken seriously anytime soon. My apologies if you somehow got the impression that my intention is to be taken seriously. I&#039;m a fop Andy, a complete dilettante, and if I were taken seriously I&#039;d consider it evidence of my own failure.


But an &#039;extremist&#039;? And &quot;manifesto&quot;? To quote my idol, Fezzik the giant, I don&#039;t think that means what you think it means. 

Anyway, I&#039;ll note for my own peace of mind that you actually didn&#039;t bother addressing jack or shit in this post, nor did you actually offer any defense of Bush beyond accusing me of being ideologically opposed to him, which only a blind illiterate could somehow miss. 

Now to be sure, you had the time and inclination to come over and clumsily rip me a (well deserved?) new one, and I thank you for the amusement. I haven&#039;t been so blithely dismissed by someone clearly, but unconvincingly, trying to sound nonchalant since high school. I only regret that you didn&#039;t throw in a variant of &quot;pimp&quot; along with your other, ahem, charges. Perhaps next time, hmm?

But I&#039;m forced to wonder why you didn&#039;t seem willing to explain why I&#039;m wrong. I mean, you obviously seem convinced that my wrongness and total stupidity contains multitudes, layer upon layer of nuance and complexity that would take you at least a week to discuss in detail. I mean, if my lameness is so vast, why couldn&#039;t you at least, you know, throw me one little bone, give me an hour&#039;s worth of ass-handing? 

I think if you&#039;ll read through the site you&#039;ll notice a whole lot of actual, valid points explaining why I think Bush is such a collossal fuck up. I welcome your thoughts. I&#039;ll add a bit here: I just pointed to absolute proof that Bush is using valuable public defenders as props, and I pointed out that bush appointees are questioning the patriotism of people who object to it. You&#039;re allowed to think that&#039;s a good thing, though that would be lame, but Christ man, can&#039;t you at least muster up something?

I can only assume that either your time is far too valuable, or that you are a tool.

And by the way, as I always say, I can dish it out and take it. So in case you feel the need to insult me, by all means feel free. As I told Neocon last week, I am, in fact, a bellend. 

Sir?</description>

		<description>If you want to generate a little bit of dialogue, you might consider including a few valid points of criticism in your rants.

Your little anti-Bush manifesto is so utterly devoid of merit, it would take me a week to rip it up line by line.  Who’s got that kind of time or the inclination?  Write like an educated adult who has done his homework instead of brain-washed, raving extremist and maybe someone will take you seriously someday.</description>
