Message to Ehren Watada

"You may recall the case of Ehren Watada, a U.S. Army active duty lieutenant who refused to deploy with his unit to Iraq because he believes that the war is illegal and immoral.

Apparently, he expects us to look past the fact that the war was already on when he took his commissioning oath, stating that he makes his commitment freely, without any mental reservation, or purpose of evasion, 'so help me God.'

Well, he's got a website, it turns out, called thankyoult.org.

I just wrote him the following message:"

Even me, the LIBERAL guy, agrees. What a poser.

Who are you to call a poseur? You are posing as a liberal!

Yes, it is spelled "poseur" http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/poseur


Only the French and the pretentious (but I repeat myself) spell it "poseur". The American vernacular is poser.

It's considered poor form to criticize someone's spelling in an informal forum. You look even worse when you're wrong. You come across as a complete moron if you fail to properly punctuate comments that are critical of someone else's English skills.

Further, considering Tom is a Cuban-American, I think he does rather better with his English than you do with Spanish, so give the guy some credit.

There is nothing more pretentious than alternating upper- and lower-case letters in your name. It's so 12-years-ago, not to mention so 12-years-old. You're a 28-year-old pretending to be a skater punk. Cheesy. It's high time for you to develop some maturity.

On top of all of that, you list both Che and Bakunin as interests in your profile. I've never seen anything that screams pretentious more loudly than that.

You're a pogue.

Posing as a liberal?

No, I am not posing as a liberal, I come from a great tradition of liberal's that stood up to tyranny though out the history of this country.
It's you, and your surrender first friends that are posing as liberals. Had you fools been the majority of the liberal thinking people you would have turned over the keys to the front door a long time ago. Better known as domesticated sheep. Quietly lining up at the slaughterhouse

Jon Sikz is just reacting to comments I left here

It's just a calling card to let me know he posted a response.

Jon,

You have just become a subject of the discussion over at Khalids. Seems you have a few friends over there. I am awaiting the next response were I think I'm going to find out all about you.

I wonder Why Skiz deleted his comment?

I wonder if he's aware that there is a permanent record

MT - "You have just become a subject of the discussion over at Khalids."

Have I? Nothing good I hope. Been too busy with work lately to spend much time with the blogs.

Hi Jon,

Well for some reason the conversation seems to have turned back to the subject. They tried but could not use you against me.

Thought maybe you were on your way to a new time zone.
