Today's most recent social media posting is a "perfect" example of a perfectly imperfect sample of how to converse using the English language..... Here's what was posted on the Brian Fox for City Council Facebook page at about Four O'clock this afternoon: "Brian Fox for City Council [@ 4:00 PM, 9/17/2021]... I look forward to working alongside our phenomenal Congresswoman once in office!... How it started... How it's going..."
Let's just leave the photos that went along with "... How it started..." and "... How it's going..." --- and the bad visuals --- out of this, this time around.....
Just focus on the words --- "... I look forward to working alongside our phenomenal Congresswoman once in office!... How it started... How it's going..."
I put it to you --- is there any rational meaning that can be ascribed to that melange of words, spaces and punctuation --- whether making references to the pix that accompanied them, or without any pictoral linkage whatsoever ?????
You think fox has communication issues try listening to the explanation on drone strike that killed 10 people in Afghanistan on August 29th.
ReplyDeletePentagon explanation of details leading up to strike, if taken as true, dont justify a drone strike. It was just a van of 7 kids and a US Aid worker. If the NY Times didnt stick with it nothing would have been said.
822, General Mark Milley said that this strike was "...Righteous..." long after it was known that there were several civilian deaths at the site of the attack, and that no "kills" on terrorists had yet been confirmed. General Frank McKensie said that we didn't order the strike because we thought we were wrong, but because we thought we were right. Similar sentiments were expressed by some of the Nazi defendants at the Nuremberg Trials. And if they're pressed further, I'm sure that these generals will resort to the principal "Nuremberg Defense" about following orders.
ReplyDeleteI keep hearing Generals say they accept full responsibility. Sounds like bullshit.
ReplyDeleteHey Gale that big fellow Dennis "DQ" Quirk resigned. Didn't take much for DiFiore to slap DQ into place.
ReplyDelete1226, we'll get a properly militarized military and "resposibility" from flag officers, especially the senior careerists, when the truly "righteous" "warrior" junior officers start capping the bad generals and admirals. They should start with the recently retired flag officers that got "payoff" jobs elsewhere in the defense establishment.
ReplyDeleteQuirks wife is named Janet?
ReplyDeleteHow do we know DQ isn't for Dairy Queen?
ReplyDelete955, Janet DiFiore isn't Quirk's wife, but maybe there is something else that went on there. This whole thing is much too personal.
