I like IKE.

He reminds me of me.

He reminds me of you too, though you don't have his prickly persecution complex. You're just a lovable blowhard.

Good point. Gladys wasn't really as silly as she was made to look....

Heh. So am i the Gladys Kravitz, or is Ike? Both?

I could make of of these cases. But i deny in my own case, because I don't thinks I'm as 'serious' and 'compulsive' and 'fundamentally silly' about it like a real Gladys. Ike makes a big noise, I comment a little. Maybe I'm on to something, maybe I'm not. I do have some compulsion to analyze and explain things, and this is also my little passive-aggressive game to counter Ike's overt aggression. See, I'm willing to turn my tools on myself is a self-critical way....

If there's a reason to walk out of this joint it's all the fucking whining about aggressiveness.

Here's where the aggressiveness started...from my perspective, of course. It's where it always starts for a pro-Israel progressive on any left leaning forum. As soon as the other "liberals" find out that you're a pro-Israel liberal, Sarah Palin might as well be your outside woman. Within a week of my first posts on the subject I'm tagged a Muslim hating bigot, and that was just the beginning of it. My fate was sealed the day I first stated that I will not question anything the Israelis choose to do in their own defense. It's like James Ridgeway said about liberals and democrats after the 2000 election, related to the treatment of Ralph Nader, "They are the meanest bunch of motherfuckers I have ever run across." That goes double for the treatment any liberal supporter of Israel by their alleged ideological brethren. And if you or anybody else on this forum thinks I'm gonna lay down and die when my door is kicked in you're fucking crazy.

So you can take your whining about my bad attitude, fold it six ways, and stuff it where the sun don't shine. I did not start this.

You were dissed to a slight degree in this thread, and chose to go absolutely fucking ballistic. Why? Because you want to, and found you had an excuse to do it.

The theory you present as to why you have trouble strikes me as nothing less than silly. Very few people go around hating on the Jews, and I don't know of one currently posting here.

You don't get to decide how badly somebody's been dissed. Jesus christ you're as fucking arrogant as boreas.

I know of at least two. But hey look, they put Hitler in the driver's seat and looked the other way...that was a whole country, and in effect the whole world looking the other way. This is just PC.
