As the anniversary of 911 approaches.....
« on: August 25, 2011, 04:03:06 PM »
...I'm reminded of a great quote, in a great movie, called Jurassic Park.  It sums up the Mosque debacle quite well

" Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should" ..... Dr. Ian Malcolm

The "scientists" in this case being the small minorty that support the notion of an Islamic mosque being built in such close proximity to the thousands murdered, in the name of that religion, and wrongly accuse those that disagree as some form of racist religious bigots

Just MHO

Part of the price of freedom is that sometimes you must allow others to exercise their rights under the law, even though you may not agree with them.

There is no way to prevent the mosque from being built without infringing on the rights of those who want to build it.
They SHOULD permit it being built. It is not a threat to anyone, anyway.

How insensitive you are to the sensitivities of those who don't want the mosque.

The problem is those who are insensitive to the sensitivities of those who do want the mosque built - and have the law on their side. Maybe those are the ones you should be tsk'ing.

Sarcastro is one of the students of Tick's superhero class, and he holds the distinction of being the only one to flunk. He fights crime with the razor sharp sting of sarcasm, but he needs to improve his aim as he usually uses sarcasm on the other superheroes as well. Some of his lines are absolutely hilarious, and it's too bad he doesn't show up until the last episode of the series; they could have really used him.

Appearances: Tick vs. Education

Sarcastro was voiced by Charlie Adler

And since I know for a fact, I never did, you either recall wrong, or you'd be lying.  I'll let you decide which

You like to lie and are pretty much wrong all the time.

I really pay no attention to the gas you emit at regular intervals.

Wrongly lying about me supposedly lying wasn't a 3rd option, unless it's a carry over of the lying option.  Is that your choice, rather than simply "recalling" wrong?

And FYI, typing neither requires nor provides the reader any chance to pay attention to any form of gas.

Speaking of lying -- Did you intentionally vote for a liar (Obama) or was it out of ignorance?
