HAARP also caused the tornadoes last week. Just wait and see. Jesse Ventura will prove it. [Wink]

I have a good friend who believes in the "sooth-sayers" like that disgusting fat sow who seems to have shares in the Montel Williams Show, Sylvia Brown. This cow preys on these sad people who have lost loved ones by murder and accidents, etc., and who are in deep grief and she just pull this nonsense out of her ass. It's maddening. And my friend believes it. I have to listen to him go on and on about her and other "psychics" as he recants their predictions.

The thing that kills me is he's otherwise a bright, intellegent guy. I just want to slap him up side the head and say, "Do you think Sylvia Brown could have predicted that...DO YOU?"

All you have to do is look at her and you know she's got body odor that would kill a horse.

You've made my day, Frank. [thumbsup]

Obviously Tom just loves playing "devil's advocate." Any point or development most of us support, Tom will take the opposing view just to get an argument going. He'll keep doing it until he gets group-flamed or pushes his luck with the moderators.

Or until he proves he's nuts, which he's done repeatedly.

Bobby, this part is not true. I just don't agree with everyone who just simply believes the US Government. Not only that, the Government lies to people all the time. There is also some propaganda going on right now...can you admit that?

The story of him being a participant in the firefight has been revised. Then the human shield...then being armed...all I am arguing that there is propaganda going on right now by the US Admin and spinning it their way of what "they" want to show us or tell...it is an advantage to the US if they do.

There are some who might argue, why was he not taken alive if he was not armed???

Kudos for killing Bin Laden...but I am saying that don't believe all that they tell us.

How is it an advantage? I would like you to type up just one reason why it is an "advantage" to the U.S. if they tell us (for example) there was a human shield when really there wasn't.

The whole thing happened so fast, it's not at all surprising there are differing accounts of what happened. Can you recount your every move every minute of every day? Could you do that if it was dark and you were in a big hurry and there was a gun-fight happening and one of your helicopters crashed?

You keep trying to cast the U.S. government in a bad light and I can't figure out why.

They did tell us that there was a human shield...then they changed the story

No, I am saying the U.S. Government like many other governments tell us what we need to know. There is nothing wrong with that.

The latest info is that the helicopters that were used were new helicopters with radar evading technology.....this was figured out because of rec that was found

oh sure mike.

Explain to me the helicopter?

Why would SEALS try and destroy the helicopter while the Pentagon will not comment on it????

Mike I have a question for you...The there was info found on the hard drives found in the complex...would you want that released to the public?

They explained that they destroyed the helicopter so as not to leave any of it behind. Why give "the enemy" access to any technology or material that might be on board that copter?

Also, if the Pentagon had to comment on every question asked it by random people around the world, they would never have time to do anything but answer questions. Plus, maybe there is intelligence that would jeopardize future operations if it's made public.

Would I want the info they found there at Casa Bin Laden released to the public? No. The public doesn't need it. Besides, if the government released it, what would Wikileaks do?

Yep. More devil's advocate stuff happenin'.

No. I can't.

I can't because the whole "the government lies to people all the time" thing is a form of group-think fashion. It is very easy for anyone to have it in for any sort of organizational body that has any authority, especially the United States government. So, NO, I'm not going along with it. Too many other SHEEP go along with all the conspiracy theories being pondered about the United States goverment when the reality is the government is being run by ordinary people not much different than any of us.

When a chopper goes down in any conflict or operation, it is destroyed. This has been the way for atleast the past 20 years if not longer. We are protecting out tech, its not like we can send in a tow truck to pick it up

Think of it this way Tom: do you really think the Federation wouldn't destroy a starship if the Klingons were about to blow their asses up?
