Community Messageboard 2: Alrighty, then by Wil Ohmsford

Alrighty, then Wil Ohmsford - 16/01/2003 10:54:56 PM

Which is why I was wondering what he meant, too. He bugs me, as he makes some sweeping statement, then doesn't explain himself.

Reminds me of some people here.

I'd have to disagree with him then...I'm not a real cultural expert, but to say that the US is the most fanatic/fundamentalist nation on the block is a bit absurd.

*shrugs* I really dont know what I'm talking about and have run out of bullshit, so I'll stop

I think Chomsky has some axes to grind...so I think he's off the mark *NM* The Voice of Lews Therin - 16/01/2003 10:25:05 PM 3 Views
