(c'mon mark - easy spell check, huh?)



Not at all - you forget that I know those people and they know me.  But that's not the point.  Most of them live in a bubble and people like you think they are something more than average.  Very few of them have a grasp of the real world, and those that do, came from a self-made background.  Most are old money.  The likes of brett and his buds all had college paid for and a six-figure job waiting for them when they got out.  They were predestined for the most part.  Their world intersected very little to that of what most Americans see.

But envy is the last thing I have for people of wealth.  I've seen how these kids were raised.  I've seen what they "worry" about.  Their lives are spent moving the pieces of the chessboard in their favor.  Profit and power over all else.  No exceptions.  I honestly couldn't live that way - I wouldn't want to.  I hate to break it to you, but salesmen and anyone that labors are only a means to an end.  They don't care about those people or their people's families.

I'm quite happy where I am in life and where I'm headed - as if you couldn't tell.

what an overstatement!!!  Kavanaugh's life was NOT being destroyed, he just wouldn't have gotten a promotion to the Supreme Court, he would have gone back to this job as JUDGE on a powerful Federal Court and kept on living how he was before. NOTHING ELSE.

That's my problem with that crap, such an exaggeration, you sensationalize it to make you feel like some grand injustice was being done, NOT EVEN CLOSE. He'd still have plenty of money for all the beer he wanted.

cry me a river for Kavanaugh....  a rich white man wouldn't have gotten what he wanted... wah!!!! WAHHHH!!! the injustice!!!  

not like he was killed or even being threatened for reporting on a corrupt government.

Quote:


I don't think he was a reporter. Even the US MSM has backed off calling him a "journalist" and are now referring to him as a "columnist". He wrote opinion pieces, which , in the eyes of the Saudi Royals,  were largely  Muslim Brotherhood propaganda. The Saudi Royal family doesn't like the Muslim Brotherhood. They told him to knock it off. He didn't.

Like I said in the disappeared thread that Eu started. Pis*ing contest among the Arabs.

So lets not make him out to be some sort of superhero. "TRUTH, JUSTICE, AND THE ARABIAN WAY !.  Or something.

. isn't it sweet how Web is such a slave to traditional cultural values of success....    almost like that's all that matters to him, how much money you make and how much of a success you are, if you aren't successful you might as well be dead according to "Master Web"....   . sh*t, that made me laugh

"... a rich white man wouldn't have gotten what he wanted... "

Why are you saying this ? What does the color of his skin have to do with anything ?

And before you said this:
“…  you're just supposed to believe them, they are white guys after all, just believe them..."

Again, both sound like completely, ‘Prejudicial’, statements.

Are you Prejudicial against Kavanaugh, the ‘Kicker of the Pro-Life person, me, JOG ?

Well, all I can tell you is that you're wrong.  You're entitled to your opinion.  As I am of mine.

You seem to be bitter, a little scared and frustrated that you're not in the majority of Americans.

You see your party as not being popular, nor relevant.

Of course, that's just my opinion.  I don't know who you are, just like you don't know me.

You may want to leave it at that, or you might say something else that you're going to have to apologize for.

not judging, just establishing a baseline of reality here. his life is NOT RUINED, because he doesn't get to be a Justice..... far from it.

you are completely blind to his privilege and power already attained, he has NO RIGHT to the Supreme Court, yet you assume it'll destroy his life if he doesn't get it.. phhhhhh, pul lease!  

So, I presume that the point of this conversation is no longer to discuss the demise of Mr. Khashoggi, If it ever actually was.
