I thought the sarcasm was obvious. Tatiana Jan 2015 #66

Do you really want to go there? Aren't you worried that this makes you look foolish?: Vattel Jan 2015 #18

Go where? You are the one who is coming into the thread to see if you can find one thing NoJusticeNoPeace Jan 2015 #20

WTF? What do you mean by that? countryjake Jan 2015 #26

I'm guessing you didn't understand what I meant. Vattel Jan 2015 #30

Okay, so you were making reference to the OP, itself... countryjake Jan 2015 #32

I had raised the issue of whether Wright was advancing a whacky conspiracy theory Vattel Jan 2015 #36

Well then, I do disagree with you that what he's said about drugs... countryjake Jan 2015 #50

I guess I was thinking about the more extreme theories that suggest Vattel Jan 2015 #53

If you're referring to Gary Webb's series in The San Jose Mercury News... countryjake Jan 2015 #80

no, it's not a 'wacky conspiracy theory'. i'm guessing you just don't know much about it. ND-Dem Jan 2015 #71

Poor people are more likely to become drug addicts treestar Jan 2015 #102

There is nothing wacky about it. zeemike Jan 2015 #35

I guess it depends on what theory you are talking about. Vattel Jan 2015 #43

Well if they were involved in drug deals why is it so hard to believe? zeemike Jan 2015 #45

Interesting. I guess I will have to give this story a closer look. Thx. Vattel Jan 2015 #48

where is the part where the CIA made people buy and use drugs? Skittles Jan 2015 #55

Why would they make people do drugs? zeemike Jan 2015 #59

I do not buy the consipracy theory Skittles Jan 2015 #70

Released on April 13, 1989 the Kerry Committee report concluded ND-Dem Jan 2015 #73

And about which assholes were making the money. zeemike Jan 2015 #77

well they certainly get a lot of assistance from people not wearing suits Skittles Jan 2015 #78

and got to destroy communities that they could later buy up cheap and resell for high prices. ND-Dem Jan 2015 #72

Yep profiting through chaos. zeemike Jan 2015 #74

America was not ready for Reverand Wrights's truths. Truth is religious free. Maybe now? Fred Sanders Jan 2015 #60

I'd say it tells you something about Obama. He & Wright went back some ways. ND-Dem Jan 2015 #75

Loonie left? Are you saying that is what I am doing? NoJusticeNoPeace Jan 2015 #17

"Do you think Jeremiah Wright is loonie?" NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #31

NO, but that you do makes perfect sense...believe me NoJusticeNoPeace Jan 2015 #33

I'm hardly alone in my opinion of him. NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #38

Oh I know the entire teaparty agrees with you, and the republican party... NoJusticeNoPeace Jan 2015 #40

I would venture that most Democrats agree with me too. NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #41

I venture you are wrong. Fred Sanders Jan 2015 #62

Of Wright's statements quoted above, with which do you disagree? Scuba Jan 2015 #83

1, 2, and 3. NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #85

Just to clarify ... do you think the statements were wrong, or that Wright was wrong to say them? Scuba Jan 2015 #86

I think they're wrong. NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #87

Yet there's mountains of evidence that all these claims are accurate. Scuba Jan 2015 #89

Really? We may have different ideas of what constitutes evidence. NaturalHigh Jan 2015 #90

So you deny that "three strikes" laws have been passed? You deny that we're locking ... Scuba Jan 2015 #91

Had he stood by those comments, we would have had John McCain and Sarah Palin NoJusticeNoPeace Jan 2015 #23

That doesn't address the issue at all. If someone is right, they are right period. sabrina 1 Jan 2015 #57

When we own the media then we can. Or get them to remember their press freedoms come with duties. Fred Sanders Jan 2015 #63
