Can You Be A Part Of My Life...

(ED: I have resurrected this post because I feel

that I'm being misrepresented by this blogger...

yet again.)


As you can see by this comment below, I'm

responding to an accusation that I make offensive,

horrid and biased comments and that's why she

won't post them.

Well read on and judge for yourself, and


see if you can pick up where I show


my hatred for America... good luck.


Have a look at this...






(ED: This video has since been taken down. As


to her thinking behind that action, I can't say.


I did comment on it, but unfortunatelyI didn't


take a screen shot of it, otherwise I'd publish


it here for you to read.)

If nothing else, it's clear from Lauren's

video that she holds two things to be

true, her opinion of me, and the

sanctity of honesty.

So in the interest of honesty, and perhaps some
integrity thrown in too, I've decided to do this
post.

I've been reading Can You Be A Part Of My Life
for some time now, but due to an unfortunate
run in with Lauren some time ago, I ceased
commenting and just stuck to reading the blog
through my reader.

I was originally attracted to Lauren's blog by her
stated goals of dealing only in 'truth, facts and the
right of people to express their beliefs', and I'm not
here to criticise her in the general content of her blog.
She has every right to present content of any type, in
any way she
likes. But in the interest of fairness, and
honesty, I feel I must point out that Lauren is
presenting something on her blog that is far from
honest and does not reflect truth, but rather is a
misrepresentation of the truth, is less than honest...
or if you prefer, is a lie. I prefer that term for
what she's saying in reference to me.

Therefore, as
a result
of a lack of opportunity on her blog to
defend the
charges she makes against me personally,
I feel
compelled to resurrect this blog so that I may
have
a voice.



A little while ago, this post appeared...
Turning Neighbor against Neighbor.

I commented on it expecting a debate, discussion,
discourse or whatever you prefer to call it, but all I
got was abuse, name calling and vitriol. For your
information, Lauren, I provide here a definition of
debate...

An informal and spirited but generally civil discussion
of opposing views
.

That's all I was looking for on your blog, but what
I got was very disappointing. Amusing, but
disappointing none the less.


Below are actual screenshots
of the ensuing communication that went on between
Lauren and myself. Now I do realise that the accusation
can easily be laid that I have constructed all of this
and it didn't really happen as I say it did. I can only
ask you to trust that the record below is true and
faithful to what actually happened. And in the end
you'll have to weigh it all up on the basis of probability.





Original Post;



The Obama Administration has asked for on the
White
House website for anyone to turn in links
to any sites online
that "give disinformation"
about any of the proposals
they are trying
to ram through the Congress.


All I can say are the following few things:
1. wake up Obama followers...this cannot be what
you
wanted. Please wake up from your cool-aid
induced high
and realize that those who
disagree with Obama are not
your enemy and
that we pretty much all want the same

things as you, we just completely disagree
with the methods.


2. Obama wants you to hate your neighbor and
act
like the Hitler youth, turning in your parents
and friends
and maybe even people you've
never met, simply for
writing their own analysis
of the proposals that do not
push his
agenda and stated outcomes.


3. And if you must turn in links of disinformation
after
reading my list I suggest you turn in
whitehouse.gov
The biggest offender of lying
sack of shit crap ever
to come across our country.

Go ahead and turn me in. I will not go quietly! I
will
use my freedom of speech to voice my concerns
and
disseminate information I agree with as it
is my birth
right as an American and don't
you EVER forget that.


For all your anger and hatred toward George
W. Bush
and his policies, his administration
never asked
neighbors to turn on each other and
spy and bring
information on those who disagreed
with him to
his attention. And why should he
or any government
of ours do so.

If Obama has the truth on his side what would
he need
to do this for. Please wake up
before it's too late.


Below are shots from the comments window,
I'm sorry about the quality, I'd insert a link
to Lauren's blog for you to read them there, but
unfortunately, the comments in yellow are my
comments that didn't get posted. As I said, I have
engaged Lauren in 'debate' in the past, and that
experience taught me to take screen shots because
of the manipulation of her readers that she
readily engages in.

(I have omitted a few comments here that
were off
subject and amounted to a discussion
with a friend.)





As you can see, my final comment was as much
an indication that I would leave Lauren to it...
unless... unless she mentioned me by name. It was
some days later that Lauren felt compelled to
purchase a web-cam in order to continue her
pursuit of honesty, and that's when the video at
the head of this post was published on her blog.

I would like to finish with a personal note to
Lauren...
"Please feel free to comment here, Lauren, safe
in the knowledge that what you say will indeed
be posted in the interest of honesty and integrity."

So there you go... Cheers.
