To Steve Soto: I refer to your earlier post "Scoping W" below. You really need to add a feature that enables bloggers to rate comments. Several of the posts are truly over the top!
Wow, I really can get to Bains, can't I? She dedicated several long posts to analyzing my whole life, and telling everyone who I am. Amazing talent that little girl. Bains is as common as all the other trolls, only this ones uses big words.

They certainly are Redstater.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 02:44 AMNot everyone is a fan of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, but comparing them to one of the most dastardly pieces of human excrement of all time -- that might be bit much. Especially for a presidential candidate.
TMZ obtained photos of presidential candidate Mitt Romney trying to win over grammatically challenged South Carolinians Thursday by holding a sign that said, "No to Obama, Osama and Chelsea's Moma."
Picture here:

"Death to the Green Zone."
Steve, you may want to reconsider letting someone who wants are troops dead posting on this site. There is a very fine line between ranting about political parties and those who want to dismantle Democracy, but giving someone the right to wish harm to our troops puts this site in a very bad light. The above statement is just one of several where the author feels that a dead American soldier is not only desirable, but wished for.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 03:12 AM"The troops were not drafted or forcibly conscripted and had a choice not to enlist. The decision was their's to become emissaries and agents of an Imperial fascism aiming at world domination. That, to me is unconscionable and unforgiveable. They should be defeated and destroyed similar to the agents of Nazism. It is of no relevance to me how many of these people, as individuals, may be wonderful human beings."
So, those of you who are veterans, the defeat and destruction of our soldiers along with death to the Green Zone is desirable and hoped for. There was a day when you called people like this traitors.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 03:45 AM"Sorry to beat up on my own people yet again, truly. Relevant truth is never ignored at The Left Coaster, and if it makes my people, the Democratic Party, look like weak chumps then that’s tough shit. Denying it won’t make it better, and it’s my party, too."
Paradox, it's not beating up on the Party, it is the truth. I speak for no one on this site (as Miss Manners has accused me of), but for me personally, coming to the realization that our own Party will not fight is discouraging and disappointing. I never dreamed that we would have to fight the opposition and our own Party.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 04:02 AMHouse Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers told progressive radio host Bree Walker if three more Congress Members sign on, he will start the impeachment proceedings even without Speaker Botox. I doubt Pelosi will even know or care, since she's busy penning her autobiography.
Christoper, that is the best news I could have received this Sunday morning.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 05:30 AMHow about forced implantation of microchips in humans.
CityWatcher.com, a provider of surveillance equipment, attracted little notice itself, until a year ago, when two of its employees had glass-encapsulated microchips with miniature antennas embedded in their arms.
The "chipping" of two workers with RFIDs, radio frequency identification tags as long as two grains of rice, as thick as a toothpick, was merely a way of restricting access to vaults that held sensitive data and images for police departments, a layer of security beyond key cards and clearance codes, the company said.
"To protect high-end secure data, you use more sophisticated techniques," Sean Darks, chief executive of the Cincinnati-based company, said. He compared chip implants to retina scans or fingerprinting. "There's a reader outside the door; you walk up to the reader, put your arm under it, and it opens the door."
Talk about a 'slippery slope.'

This had me snortin' and howlin' with laughter yesterday on my way to our family picnic. My hero *sigh* (I must listen to that show more often!)
Posted by Sharon at July 22, 2007 05:51 AMJudith, why worry about what Bains thinks? It's what I think of you that matters and I think you're wonderful.
Posted by Mal Feasance at July 22, 2007 05:59 AMMal, thanks. It's difficult to care when you think of them in the realm of Bagley, Scout, and Peter. Although I must admit, at least they don't preach death to American soldiers.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 06:05 AMWhat's the deal with the MSM grieving over Tammy Fay's demise? She and Jim screwed scads of people out of their life savings. In Tulsa, OK, years ago, my sister worked for the Red Feather Agency. Her major duty was finding money to give to believers so they could get a bus ride back to their homes, afer giving Oral Roberts ALL of their money at revivals he held in Tulsa.
Why can't the MSM profile Tammy and Jim's victims of their PTL club? Mrs. Baker spent over a half-million dollars on one dress, she bragged years ago; their friggin' dogs had air-conditioned dog houses! All of her fortune was tax free. Church properties don't pay any goddamned taxes! TV preachers have to join the TV personalities union, which has medical benefits. Martha Mitchell appeared on Laugh-In during Watergate and she had to join the union, American Federated Television and Radio Artists
which paid her medical costs when she contracted leukemia. If it weren't for that TV appearance, Martha would've demised sooner than she did, because her attorney general husband wasn't about to help her.
Tammy had medical insurance, which a lot of us don't have. Regular citizens, law-abiding, Christ loving citizens of this half-assed country just can't get a break!!!
Criminals in the USA are elevated to stardom by the MSM; look at Bush and Cheney! They have medical insurance! They're rich! MSM treats them like rock stars!
Oh, by the way, do y'all realize that bloggers like us will have to register with the government to keep track of our disloyal feelings?
Posted by Mal Feasance at July 22, 2007 06:18 AMUsually anti-war people want "peace for all, not just a select few" at least that's how I understand it. Wishing for defeat for either side negates the "anti-war" label if you ask me. Getting the agressors to stop is the goal. Wishing for crushing defeat is wishing for a continuing of the war until "your" side wins.

I promise to ignore Ms. Manners from here on out, but I have one last thing to say. She is definitely known around the liberal blogs
Sharon, that has always been my definition of those in the anti-war movement, including myself. Give Peace a Chance means all people.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 06:33 AMI wonder if Ms Bains is looking to get some agreement on the lefty blogs, inciting violence or hate speech? It's ok for the righties to do it, but I'm sure the feds/tappers would have a thing or two to say if lefties were so inclined (good thing we're not, eh?)
Sharon, I agree. Coulter can get by with it, but let a liberal say the things she has, then off to Gitmo. In this day and age, I would be careful about saying you want American troops dead.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 09:37 AMHate devous your very soul. Hate is why this Administration is trying to subdue the "bottom feeders", aka, "chattering class."

-(Kid Chalamagne,Digby site, transposed by Judith.)
Judith, Charlamagne was an idiot who got torched by me one too many times and had to go behind my back, to another blog, to seek revenge. He soon disappeared from Digby all together.
I may add here that never once was I asked to leave the Digby site or was I censored.Nor was I the only one who took my position. Nor was I asked by fellow posters, no matter how much animosity, to ask Digby to expel me. These people had too much belief in their own opinions to be bothered by mine.
"Steve, you may want to reconsider letting someone who wants are troops dead posting on this site." -(Judith)
Here you are entreating Steve Soto to do just that. You should mind your own business and simply not read my postings. Judith the cop; a textbook example of why there is no real left in America.
"Wishing for crushing defeat is wishing for a continuing of the war until "your" side wins." -(Sharon)
Not at all. A "crushing defeat" is but one way to end the war, not the only way to end the war. I want the war to end by any means possible, but for it REALLY to end, and that means no imperial presence. like the Green Zone shall be left standing ,no oil rights for capitalist thieves, and no fascist permanent bases.
It seems that you do want the Green Zone to continue qua Green Zone.
You, on the contrary, want to select the way the war ends, which in my opinion would not be a real end to the war. I have no problem with American soldiers as long as they are not in the field brutalizing Iraqi's. You seem to have little problem with the brutality; and I call you on it.
Now here we go, an actual veiled threat:
"Sharon, I agree. Coulter can get by with it, but let a liberal say the things she has, then off to Gitmo. In this day and age, I would be careful about saying you want American troops dead."
-(Judith )
Sounds like you and Sharon are ready to drop a dime on me to your beloved fascist Bushian police? No?
I am not surprised. Not even saddened.
Maybe it is you and Sharon who should be asked to leave this site.
You give it a bad name.
Provincials, both of you.
"Hate devous your very soul." -(Judith)
-Not at all, quite the contrary.
My position on the Iraq war is an intellectual construct, something objective and dispassionate, not subject to personal emotions or feelings.
You seem to sentimentalize everything, which prohibits you from thinking clearly.
Posted by Jill Bains at July 22, 2007 12:04 PM"I wonder if Ms Bains is looking to get some agreement on the lefty blogs, inciting violence or hate speech?" -(Sharon)
-I am not looking for agreement or camaraderie, nor am I looking to incite hate or violence.
I simply state some opinions and it is not relevant that I have agreement or camaraderie.
There are others who share my opinions, and anyone who read the Digby blog in the last year can attest to that. That blog draws a wide range of diverse opinion, and is not in any way provincial or small potatoes.
This blog (so far) is very cloistered, quaint and restricted in the variance of opinion and seems to have a censorious propensity among the thread commentators. Denizens here seem to want to impose a restrictive quarantine.
I do not advocate in an active manner for hate or violence. My position on the occupation of Iraq by all foreign forces is hard, cold and clear not clouded by the wishful thinking which muddles the thinking of those who do not understand America.
When I say "Death to the Green Zone"perhaps I should say something like "No more Green Zone." The Green Zone is the epicenter of a loathsome and unconscionable state terror of an imperial program responsible for untold violence on a civilian population. That is not accidental.
I then don't have a problem with calling for its termination by any means possible.
Why you don't, is your view.
I respect that view, but see it as a problem.
Your problem, not mine.
Posted by Jill Bains at July 22, 2007 12:31 PM"Sounds like you and Sharon are ready to drop a dime on me to your beloved fascist Bushian police? No?"
No Bains, what that meant is with Government wiretapping, saying you want our troops dead is not a very good idea, but you are too stupid to figure it out.
"Maybe it is you and Sharon who should be asked to leave this site."
I can assure you Bains, that Sharon and I will be here long after you are gone.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 12:32 PMIt seems that you do want the Green Zone to continue qua Green Zone.
You (and I think you were addressing me), on the contrary, want to select the way the war ends....You seem to have little problem with the brutality; and I call you on it.
Sounds like (Judith) and Sharon are ready to drop a dime on me to your beloved fascist Bushian police?
Yes, you DO seem to think you can read minds. I'll just say you really suck at interpreting what people write. I've never advocated violence and your "calling me on it" justs make me laugh. Ha, as Baba said to Al Franken, "I'm done with you" so 'talk to the hand'.
Posted by Sharon at July 22, 2007 05:09 PMSharon, this chick is worse than Scout. Her dislike of me was because she decided she could read my mind also. My sin, posting the number of Americans killed to date, without listing the number of Iraqis also. From that she made all sort of crazy value judgements, and of course, was wrong on every one. This girl has a serious screw loose.

Sharon, what kind of response is that? That's how I know she is one sick puppy.
Posted by Judith at July 22, 2007 05:32 PMI don't know, Judith. It tires me out to try to read and understand some people so I just scroll on by. They're not worth my time.
Posted by Sharon at July 22, 2007 05:50 PM"They're not worth my time." -(Sharon)
There you go. Now that is more like it. Do that, if you can.
But you know you can't.
But you would be a liar if you didn't catch yourself reading me in secret, now wouldn't you?
The following quotations are so perfect, I just could not resist some personal dedications to the lovers of the Green Zone, and the intentional butchery of Iraqi civilians by their beloved 'troops.'
For Sharon-
"Donkey's would prefer straw to gold."
-(Heraclitus, Fragment 102)
For Judith-
"Pigs wash in mud and domestic fowls in dust or ashes."
-(Heraclitus, Fragment 103)
For Jill-
"The Sybil with raving mouth utters solemn, unadorned, unlovely words, but she reaches out over a thousand years with her voice because of the god in her."
-(Heraclitus, Fragment 79)
