I've been back through the various diaries and threads pertaining to last night's "intentional walk" by the EU powers (it's a baseball term, pertaining to not being willing to pitch to a key opponent). since my open disgust, rather frustration, has been central to arguments here, i'm forced to respond.

PFickoff.

Most of what i posted was not an attempt at being rational, it was an outpouring of frustration. Including the backstory of the ineptitude of progressive politics to make much headway anywhere in the world. I still can't get over having The Guido represent the country i live in, or that the "social left" in Yurp still can't get its story straight.

Today i still FEEL shitty about the picks, and even though raped might not have been the most appropriate word choice, it did express how i felt.

The closest i got to rationality was in writing about the EU's missed opportunity, and perhaps in questioning the wisdom of a UK appointment, not to mention a possibly capable lightweight Peer.

How this became an anti-Brit theme is beyond me. As afew tried to point out, it was a political opinion about Britain's place in the current EU, which wrongly or rightly, i still hold.  Frank's arguments were also political and rational.

I did take offense at Migeru's characterizations, making some comment about me being a prominent anti-nuclear something here, and taking my comments completely out of context. And also how he responded to Frank.

I didn't understand how Colman got his dander up, but easily recognized he never pushed it.  non-issue.

I was so frustrated by this discussion that i was considering telling the truth, how i do hate brits as much as i hate niggers, kikes, gypsies and fuckin redskins, not to mention malaysians, mothers and bayern münchen. Thankfully i didn't post that.

(See how much you pissed me off, Migs?)

And i'm still not certain Baroness Ashton is my choice for addressing the EU's interest in Afghanistan, Iran, Palestine, Laredo, Shanghai and other global hot spots, not to mention dealing with restructuring global finance and warming.  although of course her trade negotiation experience will come in handy setting EU positions between Russia and Ukraine.

Pfick, i don't know why i just took an hour to read and write this post, i don't care if i get skewered.  You all should have listened to The Roches video last night.

PS. I hate women too, and engineers, and space debris. and cleaning out chicken shacks. and people who can't understand another's viewpoint before...

Cleaning out chicken shacks really stinks.

Peace, CH.
