I wasn't talking about Lindh, but about the proclivity on the part of our fearless leader and his ilk to draw connecting lines where they do no exist. i.e. between say, Iraq and Al Quaeda, or to and from any group of folks matching the description I laid out.
Your willingness to join (lead?) a lynch mob is both disconcerting and unsurprising....
Wasn't he fighting for a group that we were at war against? That is treason isnt it?
I am not trying to start an argument, just trying to read it in black and white.
it was treason. however if they did not convict him of it then America fucked up
Dudes. He was not fighting for a group we were at war with. He was fighting on the US side, for the Taliban, against the Northern Alliance, which for all he knew America was still fighting against. The charge they convicted him with was not fighting for the wrong side, but breaking sanctions the US had on Afgahnistan.
The US was not fighting with the Taliban in the invasion. The Taliban and Al Queda did have ties to each other, but it was al queda that attacked the US on 9/11.
Cousin Lefty sets it all straight with some deft double speak.
You should quote the whole thing because I was correcting something and there is nothing confusing about it. Do you need me to drawl you a picture or make a flow chart so you can understand that the Taliban and Al Queda were two different groups? One was the ruling political party of Afghanistan and the other was an independent terrorist group. Though they were closely linked not everyone in the Taliban new about what Al Queda was doing. I have utter contempt for both groups, but unlike yourself I feel facts are important. If you care so much about what happened on 9/11 you should do yourself a favor and learn something. Don't both to reply I'm through with you, douchbag.

nor is your lousy argument. This thread is about Lindh and not Chimpy McHitlerburton and his connecting lines (which could turn out to be better connected than you think when all those documents get declassified).
"those who can do" asshole, Im sure you know the rest.
You "do asshole"????
you must wish it, cause you're always saying shit like that. Sorry I don't go that way Funky.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Deeply repressed.....
Why should I waste a minute of my time, reading an article about this guy written by his father. For real, where do you think an article like that is going to go? "John was born in Washington D.C ....." he was such a good boy.
boo-fuckin'-hoo
i just think it's huge drag that you never really add anything to the threads you participate in and actually end up ruining them.
a snide line here and there doesn't push the argument forward at all. what you do isn't really challenging anyone, at least not in the way you probably mean to.... you see that, right? it seems you want to be a part of it, but just can't be civil.
how come?

i think its a huge drag that every time I express a viewpoint that doesn't fall to the left of Noam Chomsky I get personally insulted. And if you think I'm going to just sit back and let it happen at the hands of these clowns (or that I should) than that's a drag too.
Grossly overweight.
Oh dear...can you sense my lip quivering and my eyes welling up with tears? Your rapier wit has cut me to the quick again....I bow to your superior intellect sir. Touche, indeed....
