Came across your website off of a Google search for the Pillar story and I must say that you are a complete and total moron.<BR/><BR/>Your writing style and arguments are laughable in their obviousness and simplicity. Let's see...I disagree with a potentially valid point that someone's made but rather than address the specifics of their argument I:<BR/>1) Change the Subject (news flash! - Saddam was a bad guy) <BR/>2) Attack the Messenger (bad things happened in the Middle East - shocker! - during the 28 yrs he worked there so his opinion is worthless) <BR/>3) Appeal to Authority (Bush was reelected - nevermind perhaps under false pretenses - he's still the president so everything he says and does must be right and should never be questioned) <BR/>4) Guilt By Association (he's part of the CIA so he's also responsible for their Cold War failures against the Soviets).<BR/><BR/>Anyone who's ever taken even a basic course in philosophy, debate, or logic should see your "blog" for what it really is...the worthless ramblings of an ignorant blowhard.<BR/><BR/>Have a nice day!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475986.post-1139616733267726022006-02-10T19:12:00.000-05:002006-02-10T19:12:00.000-05:00nicely said - the two of you's.nicely said - the two of you's.Reliapundithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12942299527008194753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475986.post-1139614430043364032006-02-10T18:33:00.000-05:002006-02-10T18:33:00.000-05:00I meant to add about John Gibson - it was as if he...I meant to add about John Gibson - it was as if he was using this post as his talking points.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475986.post-1139611675535708462006-02-10T17:47:00.000-05:002006-02-10T17:47:00.000-05:00Paul Pillar claims he speaks for the analysts at t...Paul Pillar claims he speaks for the analysts at the CIA.<BR/><BR/>So be it.<BR/><BR/>These are the analysts who thought the Soviet Union was going to last forever.<BR/><BR/>These are the analysts who failed to warn President Reagan about Hezbollah.<BR/><BR/>These are the analysts who failed to warn us about attacks on our embassies in Africa, on the Khobar Towers, and on the USS Cole.<BR/><BR/>These are the analysts who failed to warn us about the terror attacks of September Eleventh.<BR/><BR/>Anybody who thinks that these analysts should be calling our shots is just plain stupid, or insane, or a traitor.<BR/><BR/>In a decent country they wouldn't be writing articles in prestigious publications, they would be paraded through the streets in tumbrils and spend the rest of their lives begging for forgiveness and alms.Gandalinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09196550750055246901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475986.post-1139611611652644952006-02-10T17:46:00.000-05:002006-02-10T17:46:00.000-05:00John Gibson on Fox News "Big Story" just blasted P...John Gibson on Fox News "Big Story" just blasted Pillar big time.
