1. Well, they're certainly being used that way.
Regardless of who did the killing.

Lot's of enablers around.

18. I am still not convinced it's al-qaeda behind these beheadings.
I know, I know...but what proof do we have of who is really behind these killings except what these people claim? Do we even yet know who really was behind 9/11? Remember, the American public is the same public that believed a black carjacker drowned two little white babies because the mama said so until it was proven that she did it. It's easy to get us to believe what we already want to believe.

4. Is there a reason that the posts. . . . .
on all of your new threads that have all dealt with the same topic wouldn't fit in with the first thread you started?

27. Hmm, I've noticed a pattern: reverting to sarcasm when you can't explain.
Not surprising.

You do know the difference, right?

11. I guess the only thing I have to go on...
is the preponderance of evidence, whereas you have innuendo.

Of course I don't know "for sure", but I know that it is extremely likely, that the evidence thus far points to it, it is in keeping with established patterns, and it is the simplest explanation.

13. They also reported...
that today was Friday. Does that automatically make it untrue?

If you have actual evidence of what you are saying, I would love to hear it. I don't discount what you are saying out of hand, I believe it is very unlikely given all the evidence we have seen thus far.

DO you have any evidence other than a knee-jerk reaction?

16. Again, that's a "no"
Instead of trying to sound clever, why don't you just say "no, I don't have an actual evidence for what I am claiming."?

Like I said, I don't reject the possibility of misinformation, I just prefer to save my energy for the cases where there is at least a shred of evidence supporting it.

22. do you think any actual "evidence" will be forthcoming?
I highly doubt it, this administration has sidetracked, mis stepped, lied, blamed everyone but itself and has restored honor and dignitude to the whitehouse. Think, think of all the swept under the rug investigations that have begun, been underfunded, been let to rot. Think about 90 million spent on hanging a President for an extra maritial affair. If the same amount of money was spent investigating Plame, 9/11, Halifuckingburton, and I've lost count of everything that has materialized and then gone away. Of course, your gonna come back with the innocent until proven guilty scenario, well weigh up what is known and then decide if we should take it a step further.

29. detract, distract, works both ways
It knocks some of the more embarrassing stories off the front page.
Distract

and convinces people that when "they" behead one of "ours" that it isn't so bad when "we" let one (or more) of "theirs" get ripped apart by dogs.
Detract
