  1. Here is a poster who engages in the most vulgar racist,misogynist and homophobic rants – just like his stated hero – and you talk to him like he is just some cute rascally fellow.

    Why thank you Benson : ^ }. That comment is a badge of honor.

    Mr. Sonny Carson was fighting in the trenches of the Ghetto why you was voting for elements to destroy Black Men and Women. Mr Sonny Carson was a friend to my family for years and It was an honor to have known him!

    Let’s take a look at your hero Ronald Reagan. This president did a end around Congress and instated the Greatest Covert Operation in American history!

    Iran-Contra affair

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran-Contra_affair

    Iran-Contra affair (Persian: ماجرای مک‌فارلین; Spanish: Escándalo Irán-Contra) was a political scandal in the United States which came to light in November 1986, during the Reagan administration, over an arms-for-hostages deal with Iran and funding for the Nicaraguan Contras.

    It began as an operation to improve U.S.-Iranian relations, wherein Israel would ship weapons to a relatively moderate, politically influential group of Iranians; the U.S. would then resupply Israel and receive the Israeli payment. The Iranian recipients promised to do everything in their power to achieve the release of six U.S. hostages, who were being held by the Lebanese Shia Islamist group Hezbollah. The plan eventually deteriorated into an arms-for-hostages scheme, in which members of the executive branch sold weapons to Iran in exchange for the release of the American hostages.[1][2] Large modifications to the plan were conjured by Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North of the National Security Council in late 1985, in which a portion of the proceeds from the weapon sales was diverted to fund anti-Sandinista and anti-communist rebels, or Contras, in Nicaragua.[3] While President Ronald Reagan was a supporter of the Contra cause,[4] there has not been any evidence uncovered showing that he authorized this plan.

    Plus this Covert Operation produced Blow-Back in the form of Drugs being sold on the streets in America in most Black neighborhoods…

    Gary Webb

    Webb was best known for his 1996 “Dark Alliance” series of articles written for the San Jose Mercury News and later published as a book. In the three-part series, Webb investigated Nicaraguans linked to the CIA-backed Contras who had allegedly smuggled cocaine into the U.S. which was then distributed as crack cocaine into Los Angeles and funneled profits to the Contras. Webb also alleged that this influx of Nicaraguan supplied cocaine sparked and significantly fueled the widespread crack epidemic that swept through urban areas. According to Webb, the CIA was aware of the cocaine transactions and the large shipments of drugs into the U.S. by the Contra personnel and directly aided drug dealers to raise money for the Contras.

    Webb’s reporting generated a large controversy and the Mercury News backed away from the story, effectively ending Webb’s career as a mainstream media journalist. In 2004, Webb was found dead from two gunshot wounds to the head, which the coroner’s office judged a suicide.

    See Benson you can suck my Balls. This was the greats PWNING ever. I used the truth to hang you….. Pick yourself of the floor and reply..

    The What (Na Na Na)

    Someday this war is gonna end…

  2. “see this site continue to degrade into a political echo chamber”

    Benson, I completely understand the logic behind your reasons for not wanting to provide a platform for the What. However, I think that if he were not here (or his alter-ego BHO) this site really could become an echo chamber. And a few of us here have figured out that What is really a performance artist and an invented personality and as such is kind of entertaining. SO I wouldn’t fault anyone for taking your position on this and I definitely wouldn’t begrudge cobblehiller or biff or myself for that matter the odd indulgence of mixing it up with him. Its kind of funny if you look at it the right way.
