I take it you have this marked on your calendar or something?

I don't think she'd like it if she knew you were trying to mate with Mr. Bush.

What the heck is generating a "Palestinian spin" against me so the mods and other posters will generally consider me guilty when I've committed no offense.

It's important that from now on I report his every false accusation. That's the only way to stop him. Take a look at his recent posting history against me. He's been very mean spirited and vengeful. He has accused me of things that I haven't done. I've laughed it off. But over time if he keeps making false accusations without suffering anything for his maliciousness he will continue doing it.

He says I have posted and run a few times. Each time falsely. He has said these things knowing they were false.

He has accused me of rule 8 violations, each time false.

There was a news report the other day of a police force in southern california which has a citizens' complaint procedure which forces each citizen complaint to be investigated and during the investigation the cop has to be put on admin duty.

Well, the drug dealers have figured this to be the way to get good cops off the street.

They complain, the cops are taken away and the rats play.

What the Heck should be made to pay a penalty for making false accusations. If he isn't he'll just say, "what the heck, why not **** with marden? I won't get caught and there's no penalty for false reporting. If I falsely accuse him 10 times and it results in his being banned there'll be no skin off my ass and the mods won't do anything to me. So why not? And if I can get all the posters to just take my word for it that he broke the rules I can make him a pariah, like Palestine has succeeded in doing to Israel over the years."

It isn't, Kevin. He is throwing false accusations at me trying to create a false belief among mods and posters, alike, that I am a rule breaker. In doing this he suffers no penalty for making false accusations so he has no reason to stop doing it.

He's playing all of us. No one is going to check on every time someone accuses another of an infraction. But after it happens a few times the average poster, without any proof, will just get the impression that the accused must ALWAYS be breaking the rules. But the fact is that the accuser has just taken advantage of human nature and the mods.

In the NFL whenever a coach challenges the ref's call and asks for a review of the preceding play, if he is found to be wrong in his challenge his team loses a time out.

I say that anyone making a false report should be banned. That will stop that crap. And if not then I will give thought to reporting anyone and everyone I don't like and I would also think about emailing everyone I know and asking them to do the same.

ASIDE: This is akin to the situation in Iraq. Let's say What the Heck is a Shiite and I'm a Sunni. If I can rely on the central government (mods) to protect me then I will allow them to do the job. But if I can't get justice then I will have to defend myself by using my own methods.

Well, false in your eyes. Your post & run's did violate the forum rules, and I specifically asked DH before I reported you because I wanted to be sure that you were.

I'm sure your reporting me is worth sh!t after you just exposed your intentions.

Ah, so you are implicating DH in making unfair judgments? Can no one make a post and then go to work? Or sleep? Or do chores? Or must a poster remain glued to the computer for an hour so you won't be able to harass them, with or without official sanction? I don't believe DH would let you manipulate him like that. You must have caught him at a busy time.

I'm trying to make DH aware of the situational dynamics so that your abuse and harassment will be stopped.

I stick to the topic and don't bear grudges or carry animosities over from thread to thread.

You do.

And because I have stuck to trying to take the high road you have been encouraged to keep on attacking me and even increasing your attacks on me.

This is like the WAR ON TERROR.

Unless it is opposed it is human nature for the aggressors to continue or increase their aggression.

I am now opposing your aggressive efforts to harass me.

As you can see his tactics rely on a certain ignorance by you, the posters, as well as by the mods in order for it to be effective.

I am illuminating his crap and informing you of his strategy & tactics to keep you from being duped by him. Your post illustrates that he has been successful with you already. You are mistaking his personal attacks with my exposing them.

Unless you LIKE being manipulated.

Seriously.

How can this go from a pedestrian 'Happy Birthday' into a dress down of what you view her accomplishments or such being worth?

And, be mindful your arrogant snubbery of a mother and teacher as having 'not accomplished anything in her life' is a judgement on nearly every weekday mother and teacher…ever.

So, I ask, with all due respect and apologies for asking in Mrs. Bush's thread, who the frak are you Monique and what the hell have you ever done that I'd have heard of?

Oh, and just to stoke the fire… 'has not accomplished anything' might be said of Canada. (No, not really)

Sheesh!

What have you done in your life besides blame men for all your problems?

I suggest you read this

Laura Bush - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Then come back and apologize.

That's really not very nice of you. The idea of using someone's occupation as a means of insulting them is a very liberal thing to do.

Even if she hadn't asked us to pray for her brother who has cancer.

Are you sure this is where I am working?

Let's see with all the first ladies the U.S. had, let's compare Ms. Clinton with Laura. Laura was a librarian for a little while, she got married and had a nanny raised her children, a housekeeper clean her house. If she was the one who raised her daughters she transformed them into drunks.

Let's see the biography of Ms. Clinton:

She entered Wellesley College in 1965. Graduating with high honors, she moved on to Yale Law School, where she served on the Board of Editors of the Yale Review of Law and Social Action. While at Yale, she developed her special concern for protecting the best interests of children and their families. It was there that she met Bill Clinton, a fellow student.

In 1973, Hillary became a staff attorney for the Children's Defense Fund. A year later she was recruited by the Impeachment Inquiry staff of the Judiciary Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives to work on the Watergate Impeachment proceedings.

As First Lady of Arkansas, Hillary continued to work tirelessly on behalf of children and families. In addition to chairing the Arkansas Education Standards Committee, she founded the Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families. She introduced a pioneering program called Arkansas Home Instruction for Preschool Youth, which trained parents to work with their children in preschool preparedness and literacy. Hillary also served on the board of the Arkansas Children's Hospital. In recognition of her professional and personal accomplishments, Hillary was named Arkansas Woman of the Year in 1983 and Arkansas Mother of the Year in 1984.

Like her predecessors, Hillary Rodham Clinton brings to the role of First Lady of the United States her own special talents, experience, style, and interests. The President appointed her to head his Task Force on national Health Care Reform, one of his highest priorities on taking office.

During that time she worked as a full-time partner of a law firm, chaired an education committee that set public school standards in Arkansas, managed a home, and cared for her husband and child.

And there is one more first lady in mind Mrs. Blair that is also an excellent Barrister.

Which one wins, well it is not Laura.

You're right -- Laura has never done anything but put library books on shelves.

That's why he's gonna kill us. So we got to beat it. Yeah. Before he let's loose the marmosets on us."

Which you were dead wrong about.

Then you gave her a SMALL amount of credit while still being dishonest when you posted this.

That doesn't sound like an apology to me.

And I suggest you re-read that link again.

You don't care about the truth Monique.

You forgot about the fact that she killed her first boyfriend. Can you imagine if she was a liberal the conservatives got hold of that information? It would be on AM radio every single day.
