But he is not a civil/public servant acting on your behalf.

So you are saying that everyone exposed by Assange has been? These people who want complete, uncensored openess should start by setting themselves as an example.

What ever you say chief but....... Again public/civil/govt. are all servants doing the peoples bidding.

As opposed to a *private* citizen not being paid by the taxpayers. *private* being the key difference there

They work for We The People & if they are fukcing up ....We The People want to know.....At least most of us do

As for "setting an example".....

Not too consistent

I can accuse her of lying all I want. She is a public figure. I can say all kinds of things about her if I so choose.

I'm not for the leaks so I don't need to set an example. If you support them, please post your emials or ST*U.

As for legally being able to say what I want about a public figure I am a great example for people to follow. While I have the legal right to "say all kinds of things about her if I so choose", I show the sense of decency not to. You should try it.

Oh the chagrin when dirty laundry is aired publicly!

If I was a rapist, burglar, thief, murderer, whatever type of criminal, and someone exposed me to the public as being such....what merit is there when I try to supress the information, or condem the exposer?

How do we know that you aren't? Please post ALL of your private correspondence from over the past 20 years and let the world be the judge. Maybe we'll find something else in there that isn't so squeaky clean then it will all be justified. Right?

A tad ad hominem there....What has my past (squeaky clean as it is ) got to do with the notion that the US is upset that it's DIRTY laundry is being aired, and my suggestion that there is no merit in punishing the airer?

Call a spade a spade and be punished?

Do you forget? It was only 9 (or so) years ago....... The Patriot Act was signed in by the VIT, not Obama.

Sorry I figured you would like him as well as the original village idiot that signed it into law.... Since both are basically the same controlled puppets

1) Obama and the Democratic Party had TOTAL control over the Executive and Legislative branches of the US govt for two solid years - 2009-2011. Republicans could do nothing to block them from repealling the Patriot Act. The Dems had total control over the Legislature from 2007-2011 and did nothing.

2) From just last week: Obama signs temporary extension of Patriot Act. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/02/25/AR2011022505562.html

Now you know, VIK.

Now you understand why I thought you would like Obama as much as your other buddy

See?....Different puppet same masters

Left wing....right wing...same corrupt bird....

Can you honestly say that you do not know in the context of this forum? It was your aged friend that coined it (previously it was the TVI)....so why not ask him?

Your constant throwing about the word "cowardly" is baiting. Why don't YOU just say what YOU mean?

I have no idea what it means and Google does not seem to either.

OK...I suggest you have made a personal insult but hid it in an acronym that you could pretend was something else. If you are not cowardly (or dishonest), then you would come right out and say exactly what your VIK was meant to mean.

I asked you what you meant by "VIK". So far, you have declined to clarify......dishonest or cowardly...or both?

"Insults" that no one understands do not count. Calling some one "cowardly" does.

I did ask if you can honestly say......considering that it has been bandied around OTB for probably more than 2 years, you would appear to be either very forgetful or dishonest.

Couching insults in language that nobody understands is indeed cowardly.

Are you saying that YOU did not understand what VIK was meant to mean?

If no one understands, then how do you know it is an insult?

I really doubt if I EVER knew what VIK supposedly meant.

As you will claim....and so it reflects upon your abilities.

And in the meantime, UG's claim to ignorance aside (a claim with alot of merit), Koheesti continues to decline to answer the question, "what did he mean by VIK?"....cowardly, dishonest.....or have I got the wrong end of the stick? Simply by responding, he could resolve the issue.

OK guys. This is a bit more open forum that the rest, but this back and forth bickering has to stop. Next off topic/derogatory reply will result in a warning.

Now about that Max Hastings fellow....
