Madisonman is doing just fine and I am proud of him. I noticed that these comments may be slanted against him. But ,I hope he keeps on, keeping on!! I think he is being realistic, and has good topics that need discussed. If his opinion does not agree with mine, I will not try to belittle him or try to bulldoze him over. It is very obvious to me that some try to do that. Do unto others as you would have them do to you. We all may slip up a little at times.

didn't you know that madman is a Zionist??....

do you allways have to make personal comments that are off topic?

I simply think it is laughable that anyone would complain about a cut and paste. So many of you attempt to make this a personal issue and I find a cut and paste takes a personality out of the loop especialy if it a well documented fact, for example one poster tried to say that the war in iraq decreases the threat of terrorism so I posted a direct quote from our national inteleigence estimate on the subject, From Wikipedia "National Intelligence Estimates (NIEs) are United States federal government documents that are the authoritative assessment of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) on intelligence related to a particular national security issue. NIEs are produced by the National Intelligence Council and express the coordinated judgments of the United States Intelligence Community, the group of 16 U.S. intelligence agencies. NIEs are classified documents prepared for policymakers."

and it stated the opposit of this posters view .the comment was then."not in your own words" well I do my best to stick to facts and reality unlike alot of folks who rely on spin and propaganda

copy paste then post is a good thing

but the following two condition need to
be meet to make it a good thing

must post the link for verification
and none plagiarizing the information


and

you need to give your editorial (spin)
on the information you paste

if you do not meet these two issues
you are just a news deliverer

and frankly we all know how to use the net
and we could get it on our own if we want it

I am happy to deliver the news and drive traffic to alternative news sites.thank you all for participateing

it would be easier and less eye strain if you copy and paste the link so we can check it out in its original context then give your take on the article instead of pasting 9 page articles with no incite on why the article touches you .

It gives people something to focus on besides argueing about petty issues..... I'm always at service.....
