The Brink of Madness

Tom, I was just about to wade in on behalf of your POV.

Not only was I about to enumerate a list of facts supporting your argument; but I was also poised to rip midget to shreds.

However, that vomit green font has caused me to completely reassess my stance! :laugh:

S'OK, MHP, I do have an agenda - of following reason where it leads, and not imposing some preconceived view on things. It's not the only thing I took from the article, but if you think that the way Hanson used the Dingell quote is good journalism, then I can only say what I said before - you are not interested in following reason where it leads, you are interested in finding confirmation of your preconceived view of the world. That's your agenda. You read John Dean's new book, Conservatives without Conscience? I suspect you might find yourself in those pages. Hanson fits squarely. Not everything he says is correct - that much fo the world is anti-Semitic, e.g. - but much of the article is the usual name calling one gets from his kind of "journalist" - e.g., the "serial ravings on the Middle East of Pat Buchanan and Jimmy Carter - that's just crap.

Sorry, your logic is as fuzzy as your choice of color/font of your text. If The fact that Dingell is playing both ends against the middle escapes you, then you are not as smart as you think you are.

:D :p :D :p

P.S.

Sartre references are a dime a dozen!! Hint (the internet)!!

Sadly, most of those references are wrong, or at least, inaccurate. :(

Have you ever actually tried to decipher the ramblings of a drunk Frenchman? ???

‘It’s all in the mind’ as John Lennon once said.

Or perhaps more pertinently, as Keith Richard said (repeatedly): "What the fu…! " :D

Sigh, Midget Hot Racer (Small sized, High temperature, In a hurry to get somewhere without any apparent reason to get there), seems to have gone. :(

Ah well, “Tomorrow is another day!” as someone once said. :laugh:

Did I mention or quote from Sartre? Sorry about that, just an innate reflex, I suppose. I read a few things by him, when I was working on my dissertation which was partly on his Critique of Dialectical Reason.

Anyway, perhaps this is a more appripriate color?

Sorry about that - I had changed it to green for envy in response to DrG’s post that he had purchased a certain guitar. This better?

Anyway, I don’t think it was drink that was the problem in the period of the Critique - Sartre was taking over the counter uppers, IIRC. Wretched prose was the result. Brilliant, but wretched.

So, where does the handle midget hot rink come from? I played midget hockey years ago, but hot rinks were not all that desirable, IIRC.

“A rag man” once suggested it to me, so I adopted it.

Time after time you totally wreck our our preconceptions of a drummer! :D

I’ve just spend four days trying to figure out the anagram of Midget Hot Racer that is derived from Teej! :(

So, good one Mike, you certainly had me fooled. :)

So, the lesbian goes to the gynocologist for a check-up and the gynocologist say’s, “that’s the cleanest pudendum I’ve ever seen”

To which the lesbian says, “it should be, I have a woman in twice a week”…
