ah ah ah my dear Shelli,
you are *damn* good at keeping things straight and in line. my claims as to the topic of these posts may easily be proven wrong...
i wish i'd been on debate team, damn! then i could have kept my shit in order....my posts are generally a drunken jigsaw of whatever i feel/think...i'm often wrong and contradict myself, but here are 2 things i can say in my defense:
1. politically, i'm very anti-U.S. even though i am a born & bred american. i do feel that we are exploitative, corrupt, and that most of the american population does not know of the horros we inflict upon others.
2. at the same time, i believe, the 6,000+ killed in the attatck certainly were not guilty for my above statement. they were innocents who died in a political attack. they were, to the opponents, pawns.
i cannot separate my emotional and political responses as they are so inherently tied to one another! what am i to think of abortion on an intellectual level? (Cruel, unjust.) What am i to think of it on a socio-economic/individual level? (Needed and justified.)
Shelli, i've been reading your posts for quite awhile and appreciate your attentiveness and ability to dissect arguments and discussions. but to be totally honest with you i post alot drunk, i post alot sober, i'm not good at forming formulaic arguments ABC, all i cab do right now is give you my wine-jigsaw-babblw response and hope that you'll make some sense of it...
i've respected your presence on te boards since i joined 6 months ago.
love,
sar
