From Last Week

May 8, 2007 @ 08:47

A follow up from last week. There was great response to "Compost Bag" regarding Elizabeth May's comments about the Conservatives environmental plans.

It turned into a bit of a pissing match between a guy named Larry and a few other readers.

Larry tried to explain what May "really" meant, but it all comes back to the same thing.

You don't go there. When you're talking about a government strategy, never do you compare it to anything "Nazi" - no matter what angle you want to attack it from.

It was cheap and there was no excuse for it.

Freddie: I stand by my opposition to the characterisation of Ms May, and insist that this type of lazy thinking is really the APATHY we have been urged to get out of over the years.
Were all of your readers ASLEEP in History class?
Do they all think that Neville Chamberlain was a NAZI ????
Freddie you even managed to properl quote Liz as saying that "... Harper's stand on climate change represents a grievance worse than Neville Chamberlain's appeasement of the Nazis."
Then all of your brain-dead idiot readers proceed to accuse HER of comparing Harper to the Nazis.....?
Am I the only one who cannot see the terrible inconsistency in that logic?
Her comment, was, if anything, comparing him to Neville Chamberlain - NOT the Nazis..!!!
When we are urged to LEARN from history THIS is exactly how we can DO THAT - by NOT mixing up a plea to NOT be like Chamberlain & his ilk at the time or the threat could turn out greater BECAUSE of not addressing it sooner than later!
If you told the Dutch they should reinforce their dykes because they didn't want to UNDERESTIMATE THE DANGER of flooding a la Chamberlain.... Would it be sensible to claim you were comparing the Dutch to a huge FLOOD?
Anyway, if we can't pull of THAT tiny little mental challenge then we really are doomed to more of whatever the powers that be continue to TELL us is acceptable in the corporate mainstream media's mind-numbing wall of distraction.
To my fellow commenters on "Compost Bag":
Wake up and pull your intellectually-lazy heads out of your "Sweet Pam"'s!!!

I was at The beach Restaurant last week by the recommendation of my friend. At the first time there I'm attracted by the view point of Banf Niang Beach very long around my eye sight. I love that kind of location, you can image of beautiful sunset with the light song and the sound of sea quietely... I falled for the beach restaurant at the moment. It's so wonderful, The sand beach nearby the restaurant made me relax. The service of the restaurant is cool they take care me very well and also serve a delicious food... I love it!!
