Each day this stealth fake Jew reveals more of his deceptions. i do not understand a Jew who bases their beliefs on the writings of those who have swindled, libeled, tortured and slaughtered Jews for 2000 years and many belonging to that same org continue the same today. He quotes from the writings of those who stalked the Jews for centuries. why would a Jew cite the publications of jew killing orgs? When I observe such consistent long term despicable behavior from an org i cannot give credibility to any member of that org, just like the nazi org or the KKK org.
dweller Said:
Thus demonstrating Dwellers ability to mimic the Pauline behavior of deception and evasion. I have no idea what this bit of evasive drivel means. Apparently you are incapable of honestly answering a simple question, just like your heroes whom you quote and mimick.
You demonstrate this same charactger trait with your numerous evasive, obfuscating, deceptive posts ALL concocted with the simpe purpose of evasion.
You call HB Twinkie, you have used this term since the 7o’s to describe and address that “certain type of woman”. When asked the simple question of what type of woman you do everything to avoid a straightforward answer. The reason for that evasion is that answering honestly would likely demonstrate that you are a misogynist smearer and a liar….therefore you cannot answer honestly.
dweller Said:
not asking for the reason, just your definition of your term “Twinkie” for a “certain type of woman”. What type of woman, in your own words? I predict that you will once more slime out of an honest straightforward answer, as usual, proving once more that you are a liar, deceiver, smearer and evader.

@ bernard ross:
No lie. No deceit. And no evasiveness either — regardless of your lame attempts to so characterize it.
You are simply (among other things) a humorless twerp. You assumed that nobody but you gets to play this little game you’re playing. Well, you assumed wrong; party’s over.
What ‘smears’ would THOSE be, Mr King-of-Smears? I’ve shown you the very
meaning of the word and you have YET to demonstrate anything I’ve done that remotely fits the description. Derogatory, yes. Smears, NO.
And what’s wrong with derogatory? Bloggers on this site use terms of derogation all the time. Since when does HB come in for special, kid-gloves treatment?
Oh, please, spare me your sanctimoniously stale farts, you self-important, witless gasbag. There is no ‘deception’ here — far from it — and if I were truly as sleazy as YOU are, you’d never find out it — because I’m more than capable of sufficient subtlety as to hide it and keep you from knowing it.
It’s only because I do NOT stoop to availing myself of such cheap-though-effective defenses that you are even able to accuse me of such ham-handed clumsiness that you could DECLARE me ‘suspect’ in the first place.
Nor is there anything ‘low’ about my above response. HB is herself by no means ‘innocent’ in this. I’ve told you that if it’s important to you to know why I gave her the moniker, you can ASK her. However, she, for her part, could — on her own — either discuss it with you or tell you to take a hike.
She has done neither, and instead resorted to one of her OWN little evasive maneuvers which make up the larger balancing act she maintains at all costs. I merely drew attention to it while keeping my very amused tongue firmly implanted in my cheek. Alas, authentic drollery and irony are both alien to your temperament. You are INDEED humorless.
@ bernard ross:
That was no ‘description,’ jackass. That was a rhetorical flourish.
(Why? — did you feel the OC need to ask?)
To which I would only add: and it serves you ruddy-well RIGHT.
The posting record would take issue with you over that.
I daresay that even this commentator’s other detractors on this site would challenge your claim in THAT regard.
Begging the question again (can’t rid yourself of the habit, can you?). You haven’t established that my remarks constitute ‘ravings’ — regardless of whether you find them correct or not.
No. Some such assertions do; others don’t.
Those which allege wrongdoing or moral turpitude DO require evidence — indeed, they DEMAND it — and probative evidence at that.
Those which don’t make such claims require merely the discipline of an open & questing mind.
Why would you need to do that in ANY case? — That’s strictly an assumption, and a silly one.
Science does nothing of the sort. You’ve created a false dichotomy, but true science is NEVER a binary tyranny. When something isn’t clear, science has no problem with maintaining a “wait-and-see” attitude. It’s only YOU who cant. So you palm off your own insecurities ONTO what you call ‘science.’ Yet there is nothing scientific about such an outlook.
It’s nothing of the sort. Common sense says when you don’t know
— KNOW that you don’t know, and keep an open mind until you DO know.
Then why are you doing that? You’ve tried DESPERATELY and PERSISTENTLY to discourage, dispirit or silence my remarks in these matters — when you could easily let them pass. Oh, it’s clear that there IS obfuscation at play here — yours.
Repeat: you’re fullovit right up to your eyeballs. You aren’t the least bit interested in ‘helping me understand’ SPIT. You’re simply making your standard, usual play for reader support in these matters, because you can’t stand on your own — so the Numbers Game is vital for your fragile, scheming ego.
What’s more, there’s nothing for me to “commit to memory,” Slime Bucket. The words you offered were MINE — I drafted every single word but two of them — the two which you altered in order to invert the legitimate Burden-of-Proof, which does not (legitimately) lie with me.
@ bernard ross:
You been shown the meaning of “smear” [post #37, above], but have YET to prove me to be a smearer
— while you, OTOH, have indeed been so shown [post #38, above].
“Admitted”? — you make it sound like a cuss word, or something even reprehensible. It is nothing of the sort, and I reject your imputation. I have indeed called her a Twinkie, but there’s nothing wrong with that. (She IS a Twinkie) — and CERTAINLY nothing to ‘admit.’
Again, nothing to ‘admit.’ When the name was appropriate I used it, as I do today; you betcha. (Just like I, quite suitably, use dickhead and shmuck when I refer to PresentCompany. Does that sound ‘sexist’ to you? How ’bout derogatory? — sure hope so; wouldn’t wanna be misunderstood.)
There’s no ‘running away,’ imbecile. (The concentrated might of the American State couldn’t make me run run away. You think a puny putz like YOU can??? You’re a classic case of reverse hubris.) I refrain from giving my reasons for using the term in re HB for reasons that are none of your phuqing business.
YOU’VE been called a misogynist, HAVEN’T you? — perhaps by multiple women — and you can’t handle it. That’s what this dorky little game is about.
Nah; to be fair, more like half & half.
Half about me — and half about you.
It tells us that YoursTruly is possessed of a wry wit, verging on the caustic when occasion demands
— and that PresentCompany finds the oddest places to store valuables (well, presumably valuable).
You’re in denial, Bozole. You aren’t tossing ‘bones’. You’re just giving me opportunities for a work-out. Mentally, I’m in the gym — getting stronger, sharper & clearer — each time you ‘toss.’ So don’t let me stop you now.
I’ve got a better idea. How ’bout you kiss my arse in Macy’s Window this Sunday?

@ bernard ross:
That is a bald-faced LIE. He has never posted a single example of ‘deception’ on Paul’s part that I have not only not DENIED, but not also proceeded to TAKE APART and leave in shreds .
If YOU have an example of such to offer, then you BRING IT. I repeat, you’re a character assassin — every bit as much of a one as Huff’n’puff.
You’re fullovit. Produce one; right here, right now. Put up or shut up.
I used the imagery ONLY to illustrate a point regarding what ANY intelligent person does when introducing himself & his ideas to a strange culture — he adjusts himself superficially to the customs & other externalities of the other culture so as to avoid distracting the strangers (thru the strangers’ own prejudices) from the essence of his message. That’s not deception; it’s courtesy, and there’s nothing dishonorable about it. It’s a simple matter of respecting one’s hosts.
It’s about meeting them on their own terms. Would you show up for a fancy dress ball in a speedo & tank top? If you do, don’t expect them to be prepared to take seriously anything you have to say, especially if it’s something heretofore alien to their sensibilities.
There isn’t a word Paul wrote that could be justly characterized as deception or lying; not REMOTELY so. And until you’re willing to read him FOR YOURSELF, you won’t be in a position to express an opinion on the subject w/o showing yourself for the ignoramus which, in this matter thus far, you surely are.
But beyond all that, by associating the imagery of marketing with lying & deception, you are REALLY telling us something very significant about yourself:
— what you’re really saying is that, at bottom, YOU regard commerce — i.e., marketing, etc — as essentially larceny on one scale or another, IOW: lying and deception, cheating (and yes, no doubt, ‘SWINDLING’). Not at all a negligible observation concerning one whose OWN career seems to have been in business. . . .
@ bernard ross:
Uh-huh — because you said so, right?
If it’s ‘irrelevant,’ you should have no trouble showing us what’s ‘irrelevant’ about it by taking details & phrases from it to illustrate your point. Put up or shut up.
ROFLMAOBSST! I’m the only regular poster on chit chat these days who isn’t compulsive.
WHAT ‘common sense’ would that be? Sounds more like common nonsense (it’s common around here of late).
You think you can just use my language against me? You’ve got all the traits of the Cargo Cult (google it sometime), thinking you can go thru the motions of putting on the trappings without having the substance that led to the language and gave it meaning in the first place. Repeat: You’re a phony.
No. The undeniable reality is, I’m YOUR obsession.
If I had those traits — I don’t (yet even if I did) — only a malicious a—hole would get-off (as you’ve just admitted to doing) — at somebody else’s expense. It’s most revealing; you show your true colors in such moments.
The obsession here is clearly your OWN — in trying to ‘catch’ me ‘lying.’
— You remind me of Inspector Javert. (Shall I tell you what became of him — and why — or do you know?)
You can keep using that language, but USING it won’t make it correct or appropriate or legitimate just BECAUSE you use it. It’s unmistakably bogus. You’re like a little kid dressing up in Daddy’s clothes and expecting to be taken seriously.
Told you already: You wouldn’t recognize truth if it were close enough to spit in your eye. You have no sense of PERSPECTIVE where truth is concerned. A slimy character assassin like PresentCompany has YET to establish that he gives a rusty screw about the truth — let alone, that he’s prepared to follow wherever it leads.

@ bernard ross:
Now, THAT is what is known as a SMEAR. . . .Courtesy of this forum’s KING of smears.
@ bernard ross:
I ‘imply’ nothing, and you have not identified ANY ‘lie’ from me.
Furthermore, if I truly were ‘OBFUSCATING,’ which I am not (does someone pay you for each time you use that word?) — if I were obfuscating, you surely would NOT find whatever was being ‘obfuscated’
— because you cannot outfox me, and you know it. You just like to match wits, thinking someday, just maybe, you’ll luck out (dream on!).
I said I had used the term, Twinkie, to REFER to certain women in the third person, but did not recall directly addressing any that way (as I do address HB).
And if I had, what of it?
I use language as I find it appropriate, and I answer to NOBODY for that.
If had I personally & directly called somebody a ‘Twinkie,” it would’ve been because she’d have had it coming — just as I call you an obnoxious a___hole because YOU’VE got it coming.
I don’t smear people. I told you before: smearing requires conflation of 2 (or more) items to falsely defame by implying w/o stating — via proximity of the 2 items to each other — something derogatory
— or it isn’t smearing. Well, I don’t do that. If I think you’re the eastern end of a west-bound horse, I’ll tell you so, right out; no innuendo, no conflation. (You ARE the eastern end of a west-bound horse; got it?)
@ bernard ross:
No, genius, I call her “Twinkie” BECAUSE she defames herself — and because she is content to do so. She is her own victim, and is content to REMAIN so — and she knows exactly what I mean in saying that.
Since you’ve never read anything written BY the man, you’re only admitting to your own buffoonery in alluding to anything about him.
What’s more, you take what comes to you second-hand, or third-hand, in this regard — and you twist even THAT to your own putrid purposes. You’re a character assassin and a phony — a twenty-four karat fake, fresh from the sewer.
It’s no ‘evasion.’ She apparently doesn’t think it’s any of your damned business at this point, or she’d have told you by now. And if SHE doesn’t think it’s your business, then YoursTruly doesn’t think so either.
She & I have discussed it between us, in the past, on this very forum. Exchanges here are not private, but you obviously weren’t paying attention at the time, or you wouldn’t be so doltishly ignorant in the matter. It’s a little late for you to be playing catch-up at this point.
@ dweller:
If you had some money and a brain you too could move to Texas. 😛
@ honeybee:
Of course not. After all, somebody’s gotta pay for all the illegal aliens the CA state govt allows (actually, encourages ) to stay & suck up medical, emergency-room, educational & other public services — not to be ignoring the $12 Billion incurred in muni bonds for outrageous and phony embryonic stem cell ‘research’. . . . while it absolutely REFUSES to drill off-shore (or onshore) or sell off vacant govt buildings to corporate interests willing to pay handsomely to own or lease them.
Mmm, yes; I wonder why. . . .
And it must be purely a coincidence that businesses & industries have been annually leaving the state in droves — taking massive numbers of jobs with them.
But then, you think I would support the Demo Gov. Moonbeam for President??? (That WAS the subject, right? — presidential possibilities?)
‘Somewhat’? [harrumph!] — somewhat MANDATORY.
He could’ve just made it available, with an option to opt-IN.
Instead, he made it automatic with an option to opt-OUT — knowing that most people will avoid making waves and will just go along with the program (ANY program), without even checking out the details (let alone, making the conscious effort to climb out of that hole).
Sorry, but that’s “somewhat” MORE than somewhat. . . .”overbearing.”
paving stones of the road to tyranny. . . .
And the lesson is:
Find a less public way to repay campaign sponsors (or entice potential ones) like Merck & friends? (Sound cynical?)
Unlike Calif, Texas isn’t afraid of its enviro-wackos — so it has no problem with drilling.
A lot of the Calif businesses & jobs that left the state
— are now in Midland. What a surprise.

My husband and I we are conservatives. I’m sure TX is the same. Living in NY we always loose our vote. In order to keep the Conservative Party on the ballot we vote conservative except in those cases where they do not have a candidate for the position. In that case we vote Republican. New York is always Democrat and very liberal. We look forward to reestablishing our Republic with democratic values. We are a Republic with a democratic system. I think we are on the same page. This administration has too many controls. We should dismantle them as you said. BTW I have not checked how is it going in Louisiana’s elections. Even if Landrieu looses we
need six more Republicans to override Obama’s veto.

@ yamit82:
The increase in marches around the US and the race division is the cause of the Obama’s administration and all the Alinskytes in this administration. Inn every one of these manifestation you find the professional activists, paid agitators that go all over the US to where they are called. The first one of those was Occupy Wall Street where ou could see the old rag Piven leading the choir of sheep. The students from NYU were given credit by many of the professors for attending to the protests. Obama’s is a follower of Saul Alinsky and so are his trusted advisers in government.
I disagree with yaamit82. If ever a totalitarian government were to be instituted in this country we will never again know what freedom is. A totalitarian government watches every citizen from the time they wake up to the time they go to sleep.
If totalitarianism was ever to replace this form of government it would not be for a more conservative government.
The word itself tell you. It is total strangulation of the individual and of all institution that promotes freedom and value justice. Right now it has been an attempt only marginally successful of control through regulatory measures.
By attacking many of our institutions and business and controlling and even dismissing some of our effective agencies in government O has attained some of his plan. Starting to change simultaneously many of the changes before people can react. It takes years before many of the lawsuit to dismiss many of the changes reaches the Supreme Court and can be dismantled. Totalitarianism only works in the mind of those who have ever experienced it. How many countries have been able to break free of the suffocating yoke imposed by the system. How many years of suffering and misery?
What we need is to get rid of the cancer. It is going to be difficult if he gets away with legalizing and nationalizing the illegals already here. They are likely to vote for the Democrat party.
Yes, for the first time the communist ideologues have been able to control the government and its institutions. We hope that all that will change but how. As much as I like Honeybee’s conservatives choices realistically they are unlikely to secure the Republican nomination.
Well, as my daughter keeps on saying: If things continue going the way they are “We will move to Texas” I will rather she and her family moves to Israel.

Ben Franklin advanced his version of the credo not follow rule: Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.That’s the essence of republican or liberal democracy: people submit to majority vote if it does not infringe on their dear values.
For the first time in history, leftists are using the machinery of government to change the state. This situation is not likely to change anytime soon, leftists will never run out of social, economic and political experiments to conduct.
My hope is that the leftists will overplay their hand by resorting to totalitarianism. The more unnatural their demands become, more they will have to suppress the voters. Such totalitarianism may eventually result in the replacement of democracies with more conservative public orders, perhaps dictatorships. Though ugly, such dictatorships would stem social experimentation.

There is much truth in art, both human nature and the human condition as well as historical events.
My family had a neighbor a very strange man whose sons were even stranger. One day he arrives at our door with a painting oil, portrait. It turns out the painting was by a 16th century minor master and it hung in our living-room for 3-4 years. He was obviously hiding for safe keeping his treasure but nobody asked questions.
Wish I could remember the artist but as 15 year old was never interested. My sister might know but I doubt it. Looked like a Rembrandt but many painted in the style.
@ honeybee:
You are absolutely right. He did dare to paint what he saw.
and some of the paintings the ones that were more like drawings are extremely powerful. They have remained through centuries as an indictment of the horrors of the Inquisition. His testament to the world of the abuses of the Catholic Church.

another example of your lying, deceptive, evasive MO…
comment 25 is your comment, comment 26 is HB’s view of herself as a deflection of your smear, which is irrelevant to this discussion which is about your misogynist smears and derogatory use of the word Twinkie to describe and address her. Your attempt to use her deflection of your smear as a red herring is in itself a despicable deception used in sleaziest manner by the lowest of the low.
dweller Said:
considering that the source of this statement engages regularly in (LOL) “marketing” we should consider this attempt at evasion to be the frantic, pathetic, projections of a misogynist smearer trying to smear his accusers with his own proven behavior here.
Bottom Line: You have admitted to using the term twinkie at HB, you have admitted to using it to describe a “certain kind of woman” since the 70’s….. and yet you continue to run away from explaining what you mean by that “certain kind of woman”?

DuH?? thats why science calls for the proving of facts asserted rather than calling for the public to prove asserted facts wrong. Its simple common sense, no need to engage in obfuscation…..unless…..

dweller Said:
So now you emply the difference in the definition of alluding and of addressing to obfuscate your fact of lying about recalling the use of Twinkie since the 70’s. bottom line is you have been using the word twinkie to describe or address a “certain type of woman” and you used the same term to address Twinkie to HB. You smeared her but you lie about smearing, you lie about “recalling”, you lie about never lying, you lie about not using psychobabble…

Nobody with the mind of an assassin — like PresentCompany — ever does. The notion of a fair hearing runs directly contrary to such a man’s very purposes.
Still waiting for YOU to show me a single instance of Paul’s ‘deceiving’ — or attempting to deceive — anybody.
But of course, to do THAT, you’d have to read what he wrote, now wouldn’t you?

Not I. She defames herself.
But in any case, there’s no fault in defamation per se. What is out of order is FALSE defamation. This is why it is held that truth is a complete defense to a charge of libel, slander, etc.
There’s nothing to ‘catch out’; you’re grasping at wind.
It’s YOUR memory that needs refreshing. I said certain type of WOMAN. And it would appear that HB has answered your question [post #25, prev pg]. If you don’t find her comment satisfactory, you should take it up privately with her (if she’ll let you). At that point, it’s no concern of mine.
“At core”? — he wouldn’t know the core of OCD from the core of a Gravenstein Apple.

What would YOU know about the facts OR the gist? — I carefully described the basis, the cause, of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder a while ago, and it was clear at the time that neither of you smugly ignorant, obnoxiously arrogant Bozos had the remotest idea what it entailed — let alone, how to to recognize the real article. “Facts”? “Gist”? — ROFLMAO!
@ bernard ross:
There’s no contradiction. In the one instance, I was speaking of using the name in alluding to certain women. In the other, I was speaking of using it in addressing (or not addressing) them.
This shit is significant for you??? — If so, you’ve got your brains lodged between your cheeks. And I don’t mean the cheeks that sit on your face.
— I mean the cheeks you sit on.
I’ve told you, who was given a name like “Twinkie” was never worth taking careful note of — so even how carefully it’s remembered is MEANINGLESS except to selected shmucks like PresentCompany who are probably still smarting from having once (maybe more than once?) been labeled “male chauvinist pigs.” Never actually happened to me (and if it had, I’d have had a good belly-laugh over it).

Of course I got it right. The statement was addressed to Ross, because it’s HE that likes to play this little game of changing my words to reverse the Burden of Proof. But Huff’n’puff is only too happy to play along. So it certainly applies to him as well. However, the post was referenced to Ross — because I am under Ted’s direct and explicit orders to “IGNORE” [Huff’n’puff’s] posts.
And my understanding is that HE is under similar orders WRT my comments.
If he wants to flirt with automatic moderation (or worse) for crossing that line, that’s up to him. But I don’t intend to be referencing MY posts to HIM while the order is in effect.
The ice is thin enough without such flagrant crossings.
Nice try (I’m impressed)
— but no cigar.
@ honeybee:
honeybee, the name of the movie was Goya’s Ghost and I saw it when it first played. I had forgotten and my husband asked Netflix to send it. We received it today but I could not even listen to it. When I saw that movie several years ago my reaction was a mix of anger and deep pain. Frustration for the injustice of people who called themselves religious. I could not shake it off for several days. It is too close to home. As my father would say: The crimes of the Catholic Church committed in the name of Christ. Crimes against humanity not only in Spain but in the Orphanages of Ireland. Committed against
children everywhere where they have been in charge of an institution. In the ruins of their Convents as they demolished them. They have found buried fetuses. The product of some liaisons between some religious who had an affair. The crime of killing a baby was preferable to the scandal of having had an affair between a nun and a priest. How inhumane
of people who believe in G-d according to them. The Papacy and all these crap invented to subjugate the people. I could go on and on but I rather go to sleep. What is going on? Are you feeling well? Do you have a cold? You do not seem too well.
You have lost the spunk. You always make me laugh.
If you are interested I have lots more about the times when
the Catholic Church ruled with an iron fist and the sanctimonious attitude with which they ruled. Makes me want to puke. Good night. It is Sabbath already. Sunday I’ll be back.
He only thinks I don’t.
— But HIS posts tell a story too. . . .
I know him even better than I know HB.
He’s actually easier to “read.”
After their defeat by David, the P’lishtim remained in place, but were organized less as the confederation they had been and more like the individual city-states they’d first been. The evidence that the Philistines were still a distinct ethnicity BEYOND the “5th century” is that Alexander’s 5-month siege & capture of Gaza—the final city to resist his advance to Egypt (and later Persia) — occurred in 333-332 BC.
The Philistines held out until Alexander stormed the city. The defenders (assisted by Arabs) fought to the death, women & children taken captive. The polis was resettled by local Bedu seen as not averse to Alexander’s rule. (Of course, after that, who would be?)
In any case, this is peripheral to the original point: which was that the Philistines — although an existing people in the Land — were not proscribed as were the Seven Nations, and David (and his successors) made no attempt to exterminate or expel them EVEN AFTER THEY’D BEEN CONQUERED
— such that they continued to abide in the pentapolis of P’leshet for some 6-7 centuries afterward.
Only reference I can offer w/o lengthy research is John Bagnell Bury, The Cambridge Ancient History, Cambridge U. Press, p 147. It’ll have to suffice till Huffy comes up with something which authoritatively refutes that.

I expect he will deny or put it to “marketing”, he would never admit to those things he vehemently denies: psychobabble, lying, misogyny, smearing, insults, etc He just keeps denying, obfuscating with garbage, going on tangents, until it all goes away or the page expires. Its interesting to watch the extent to which he will go to evade and obfuscate his lies.
dweller Said:
LOL, more tangents and obfuscation…of course you are defaming her but you believe you can avoid being caught out as such as long as you evade the issue…. you are one of those who beleive that they cant be caught as long as they keep denying…LOL

I think he hit the nail on the head; you may quibble, as you are wont to do but it wont change the facts and the gist.
