That's just lovely.

You are too...so is he...

You are too...so is he...

I'm not, actually. That's why God made me so good-looking so it makes up for me being an $#@!. That's for the compliment though and fyi I'm straight so don't get any ideas.

[Private Pickle]

Oh bother! It's true on the Internet. If you respect or like someone their opinion matters. When they don't matter, their opinion doesn't matter, either.

...even on the Internet.

If you say so! So no handicapped person will ever have a valid opinion about American troop involvement...Gotchya!

No? Not an American?

Don't shoot a brother down before you've heard all the benefits!

Valid and "ought to be able to weigh in on policy" are two different things. Have an opinion, write it down, put it in neon on the back of your wheelchair but unless you're willing to go and can go your opinion counts for $#@!.

Thanks man! Now back to the topic?

I was discussing the topic. You're the one that enjoys diverting off into irrelevancies and obtuseness.

We're not talking about picking out paint samples for the Congressional building but decisions where people die. I'm sorry, but no. You want war, go to war.

Gotchya. Handicapped people's opinion counts for $#@!. Does that apply to everything? Say for example if you've never been to Europe you can't debate about European current events?

So does that also work the other way? If you've never served you don't get a say on how the military is used?
