“I don’t suppose you would care to offer any evidence to the contrary?”

Rumsfeld… the surge…

in a few years chavez will have the ak factories, the dragunov factory, and grenade launch factory that russia is building, then the groups will be much better funded, and beleagured states caught between a rock and a hard place will end up wanting help.

though we may not have enough of a military to do so if obama wins… which will cause the world to blame us for NOT doing something… of course we get blamed if we do do something too.

the real issue here is that they are playing the if it isnt perfect then its so different it is ridiculous.

so if guilt by association can be wrong at all, then its always wrong, which is completely fallacious.

we accept that our children can be in trouble for running with a bad crowd, or hanging out with a known pedophile.

when ideology and power control is in play the left then asserts what is logically and statistically correct, but fallacious to live by.

we live by maxims, many that are not correct. one is the concept that logic dictates that future performance is not related to past performance, but we apply it to everything thanks to the left.

so a man/woman that sexually abuses a child is not judged by the previous abuses they have visited on children.

so a woman who has been in a situation that causes her much misery, can apply waht is legally valid in court (the victim is not reponsibile), and flaunt a legal principal and end up on the short end of the stick in reality.

this is the difference between understanding the spirit of meaning and only having a concrete view in which only the hard meanings of the words count.

in such a thing, one can argue that i am ok even though i am hanging out with people that are not ok. or that i shouldnt be judged by who i hang out with.

all that is applications of such things without understanding the spirit of the meanings, which allow us to bridge the gap between what we cant verbalize yet.

we know porn when we see it, but we cant define it.

thats spirit verses waht language can actually do.

we know that a person who spends their whole live with people of a certain kind has to have the same kind of mentality, or else it would be too uncomfortable.

it may be too hard to verbalize it, but we understand it through the spirit of the meanig of guilt through association.

all this is, is claiming that context is either meaningful or not.

the left is claiming that when its benifits them, context is crucially important, and when it doesnt, then context is meaningless.

obamas life is not good, so context must now be meaningless and so who he hangs out with is not to be use to contextually ball park his zone of beliefs.

but if age is an issue, you can be sure that we are going to be good and not mention mccains age and in so doing, end up mentioning it and using the context against him.

in this way, things are defined as meaningful, or meaningless.
