Well bear, it's nice to see you leap to your buddys defence, too bad your too stupid to get the joke
Cato Institute: Ladders pose greater risk than terrorism
- Thread starter mentalfloss
- Start date
OK, I am going to be as gentle as possible here.
Mr. Sachs is a fool.
A damned fool.
"........the fight against ISIS (the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, also known as ISIL) is a fight that the region itself should lead."
WHO?? The Turks, who hate the Kurds, who have been the ONLY real resistance to ISIS?
http://mobile.todayszaman.com/_govt...luding-isil-ak-party-founder-says_361342.html
The Iraqis, who already surrendered to ISIS a major part of their equipment? Saudi Arabia and Qatar, who have been funding nutcase Islamists for decades? Syrian resistance fighter...oh, they ARE ISIS.
"It is also a fight that should be waged more through politics and economic development than bombs."
Yeah, that's right, because nothing stops a religious fanatic like a good political lecture and an economic development handout. Is this guy Obama writing under a nom de plume? He sounds almost stupid enough.
"The United Nations can and should provide the framework for an effective response......."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....ask Rwanda how waiting for the UN to stop genocide worked out for them.
"Yet again, as with George W. Bush, Obama will needlessly set the US up as the leader of a crusade against Islam."
I only WISH. Had the US and the free world realized 20 years ago that we are at war with Islam, and have been for 1300 years, we would not be in this mess today. Oh, and Iraq was a secular nation. ,
" President Obama is getting us still deeper into this never-ending battle with monsters stoked by our own ill-advised policies."
True. Because Obama is such a drooling twit that he withdrew from Iraq completely.
And on and on and on...oh PLEASE have the UN save us!!
HISTORY: the United Nations has lived up to its Charter TWICE in its entire history.........In Korea and in the First Gulf War.
BOTH times it was a tool of US foreign policy.
The UN is useless.
Mr. Sachs is an idiot.

So basically he's a fool because you don't agree with him.
But hey, just a bit of background on this fool..
Sachs is known for his work as an economic adviser to governments in Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the former Soviet Union. A trained macroeconomist, he advised a number of national governments in the transition from communism to market economies.
In 1989 Sachs advised Poland’s anticommunist Solidarity movement and the government of Prime Minister Tadeusz Mazowiecki. He wrote the first-ever comprehensive plan for the transition from central planning to a market economy, which became incorporated into Poland’s reform program led by Finance Minister Leszek Balcerowicz. Sachs was the main architect of Poland’s successful debt reduction operation. Sachs and IMF economist David Lipton advised the rapid conversion of all property and assets from public to private ownership. Closure of many uncompetitive factories ensued.[9] In Poland, Sachs was firmly on the side of rapid transition to “normal” capitalism.

Only a risk to you MentalFloss. I think you fell from the top rung and your head hit every rung on the way down.

Oh I got it, but you're just a clown, so stop your crying. It makes you look like a bitch, lol.
Oh wow, that's pretty impressive.
So all that makes him an expert on human rights, military strategy, geopolitical crisis management, etc...
Ummm, ya, no.
But I can see how you would want it to. You're failing, badly.
Any word on whether or not you'll take me up on my offer? I have the kickstarter account all set up and ready to go.
No he didn't, he tried to catch a train, and failed miserably.Ladders pose greater risk than terrorism

No.
He is a fool because he is not even remotely dealing with reality, as I pointed out.
He is a fool because his analysis steps way out of the realm of his own expertise.
There are lots of high-level fools with great credentials. Have you heard of Barack Hussein Obama? I fail to be impressed by a fool simply because he has credentials. I will be my own judge of his (in this case absolutely non-existent) abilities.
Exactly.
You have to love Flossy's logic though Colpy.
I mean he's opened the door for so many fields to offer "expert" opinions on the subject.
I'll be back in a minute with a report by a professor of Christian theology, on the subject of abortion. According to Flossy, it will be above reproach.
Flossy says they're a bigger threat than ISIS.
Yes. But they aren't ladders, so they're OK, according to Flossy.
Okay, so, if I need to get something off a really high shelf, am I supposed to be calling terrorists now? Is that how this whole thing works?
Okay, so is there a toll free number? Multiple purchase discounts? Cuz you know, I'm 5'3"......I need help getting a lot of shyte.
