Wait a minute- just hold the phone!!

So you're saying that if we weren't alive when past presidents, philosophers, dictators, humanitarians, writers, etc. were alive, we have no right trying to educate others on the many people who left a mark in this world but who passed on hundreds or even thousands of years ago???

So, you're not in favor of teaching people- including children- about history.

Ah yes- you provide further prove that the dumbing down of America is in full swing with full steam ahead!

still no reply to the laws/treaties broken? hmmmm.... He did come home and end a pointless was that was dragging on with no end in sight.

No - I wasn't there for his presidency, but that shouldn't matter because we know how little first hand knowledge is worth around here.

war·mon·ger [ wįwr młng g&#601;r, wįwr mņng g&#601;r ](plural war·mon·gers)

noun
Definition:

somebody eager for war: somebody who is eager for war or tries to start a war

While people who GO to war might hate it, people who START wars to NOT hate war; hence the word "warmonger" and the definition I have provided for you which is from MSN Encarta dictionary.

Here is a another source: Heritage Dictionary Second College Edition:

One who advocates or attempts to stir up war.

Feel free to use any dictionary of your choice; you will find the meaning of "warmonger" to essentially be the same no matter what dictionary you use.

And by those definitions, do NOT be so foolish as to come to the WRONG conclusion that the word "war" is meant to also mean a heated debate- as that is NOT the meaning of the word "war".

Meant to say that people who start wars "do" not hate war- I said "to" in error- before you jump on me Granny, it's called a TYPO.

Dan, none of us were here for A LOT of history or for MOST of history, as of course, you know- and even Granny knows that as well.

I wonder how she reconciles her idea that she is an EXPERT on what the bible means when of course, she was not here when it was written.

And no, she will not respond to the laws/treaties broken any more than she will respond to admit that she was wrong about what treason is, wrong about the 2000 Supreme Court Justice's political affiliations, wrong about what waterboarding is, etc.

Granny has proven her MO which is that if what is told to her- ESPECIALLY FACTUAL and undeniable TRUTH- does not fit in with the NON-truths which she cocoons herself in, she simply ignores and overlooks and pretends that the truth staring her in the face is simply non-existent.

I guess the simplest way to say it is that anything that might disrupt the fantasy world she has CHOSEN to live in she deems worthy of simply ignoring in the hopes that the truth will just go away.

Kind of like someone who has cancer and is in denial that they have cancer and who tries to fool themselves into thinking that if they DENY the cancer is there, it really is NOT there or else it will just magically disappear.

Well, here we go.....another Democrat, who has denied for more than a year "having sex with that woman" (really just an affair), confesses today that in fact he did. And he did it while his wife was battling incurable cancer.This was the one talking about wanting to be the moral change for the country!!!! Anyone seeing a pattern here? Anyone care to guess what the moral change would have been?

<quoted text> SURPRISE! I don't read yours or SF's posts...unless you are sticking your nose in and answering something I have posted to someone else. As you said "Don't waste your precious time reading or answering mine"....that is unless you are the person I think you are and just have to have the last word. You certainly don't have the integrity to keep your word that's pretty evident.
Granny baby baby, we do not care if you do not read what we have posted we have posted these for people with a brain which it appears you are not in this category.

For those only with sharp minds which again leaves you out of this category.

Ones that is capable of knowing the truth when they read it which agains leaves you out of this category.

Ones with great Intelligence's which again leaves you out of this category.

Ones with great sense to know its the truth which again leaves you out of category.

Ones with good judgements which again leaves you out of this category.

Ones that do not feel they have to lie for Bush which again leaves you out of this category.

Now have I missed anything hmmm nope that said it all.

Granny may the sun shine bright for you little child.

Good evening OCB,

I know that must hurt your feeling something awful but you know you are better off without her even though you'd might miss a laugh or two you can still read her comments or as she put it opinions and get a side ache laughing at thoses. LOL

I loved mowing the grass and love smelling fresh cut grass and it went very well thank you for asking, how did your meeting go great I hope.

I think that we should just ignore Granny and go for it what about you. NOT

Stay on topic granny. You still haven't asnwered the laws and treaties that were broken by the Iraq war.

If you are keeping score - here's a great link:

I really can't stand her anymore- I told her I wasn't going to post to her again and then I did, so that alone provided her with some more of her silly and meaningless ammunition.

I tried yesterday morning to make peace with her, but hawks and warmongers are not interested in peace- whether it's to start a war or on these boards. So to hell with it, and that's why I bothered to post to her today.

But that's it- she's a rambling fool and everything is either HER way or NO way.

She just posted about a Dem having an affair- I assume she was referring to John Edwards, but of course, the many sexual escapades of the Republicans- men's room sex, sex with children, etc.- not a word from her on any of that.

A half truth is no better than a full lie, and all Granny deals in are half truths. I have no patience for it, as dealing in only half truths is sneaky at best, and just totally dishonest and IMMORAL at worst.

So she can live in her fantasy world in which she thinks that all is just hunky-dory here in the USA, she can continue to spread her lies and misinformation and by doing so, she will continue to dig the hole she has dug for herself even deeper. I'll just sit back and laugh.

Glad you enjoyed your outdoor work today- yes- the smell of newly mowed grass is so nice!

My meeting went fine- as I mentioned to the DENIER of truth- aka Granny- I am first VP on our homeowner's Board of Directors, and they asked if I would consider being President come January. I don't think I will- I've been on the board for 7 years now and even as first VP it's A LOT of work but MUCH more work is demanded from the president and I just don't have the time for it.

Gotta feed the kitties, then fill the outside bird feeder and change the water in the bird baths, but at least I don't have to water all the plants and flowers today- we had a short but rather heavy thunderstorm a little while ago, and now the sun is out once again.

Then I'll relax out back for a while with a cool drink and the book I am currently reading- actually RE-reading- it's a novel by Bernard Malamud- he is the author of the book "The Natural" which was made into a movie with Robert Redford- this book is titled "The Assistant" and is a great read, and it's like reading for the first time since it was quite a few years ago that I first read it. So I'll sip my drink, read my book, enjoy the birdsong and the playful squirrels, listen to the breeze in the trees, and then I'll come back in after a while, make dinner and then check back with ya later!

You know OCB Granny is one of a kind always wanting to argue about something I honestly think we should ignore her ramblings for thats all they are is ramblings.

you know the ones that tell's one lie and when they are caught in it they tell even a bigger lie until no one believes them anymore.

I honestly believe that we should get keep going with the good work and let her talk an argue with herself.
