"skeeved out of his part of the bargain and had no intent on supplying his side of the debate deal"

As they always say "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions" so it is hard to tell if he had "no intent" all along, the evidence only shows that he didn't keep up his part of the bargain for whatever reason whether he intended to or not.

He was given every opportunity to fulfill what he agreed to but the fact remains that he failed to keep up his end of the bargain

So that only leaves the conclusion that Delia won the challenge because she did her part and there is nothing to show otherwise to refute the evidence she presented in her argument.

what movement? what bet?

bowel movement ? Money?

is this gonna b on u-tube?

I replied wayseeker. I figured out it probably isnt neo congo. He would at least have enough balls to get on the story and call me a dick to my face. He has done it before and I am sure he will do it again. Dont really care what you think, Never really did. You are a non issue to me.

How many times do I have to tell you argon I responded to the debate. I understand that you may have trouble in the reading and comprehension skills department but your friends should be able to tell you what I wrote.

Have a nice day

::giggle::

Yes. It seems now-a-days it is the thing to do to accept and condone everything others do least we be seen as intolerant. Being old fashioned I guess, I feel no need to suppress an intolerance for what I and others such as I consider too be tasteless behavior. The f....y... image Ihatethemall has chosen to represent himself with is an insult toward other Current members who would like too see our site represented decently on the web. That may be alright with other members but I incur my right to say is not alright with me.

Had to stop in to say hello Neo congo. Its obvious that you made up this name because whoever you are you are afraid to post what you had to say with your real name. Really kinda pathetic. You posted on one story before this one and have only posted on a few after it. Be a man and say who you really are. Grow a set will ya.

Thanks Argon! You're right, there's no reason for us to replan a debate except that the debate thread got something like 90 comments without it being a debate, it might get a little muddled but hey, I'm down for whatever works. I got Skype BTW!

Well couldn't he post his rebuttal as replies to your arguments? That would make sense and keep everything easy to follow. That is what ibrakeforrappers13 did under the video clips to keep it simple

It is only fair after all since you went to all the trouble of composing an answer to his challenge that he respond in kind.

That is unless he doesn't think it is worth it to try because you proved your point.

The other option is to concede since that is the honorable thing to do

Wouldnt have expected any thing else from a coward who is too afraid to use their real name. You made up this name, posted on one story before this one a few after it and nothing since. You are a coward. Grow a set and act like a man.

LOL !!! Did I interrupt your narcissistic groove? My bad, you are a great hero for all to see and emulate.

Really nice how I would have gotten a letter from our friends at current but you seem to get a letter in the open forum and not even get the comment deleted.

Dont really care what you think about me wayseeker, never really did. You are a coward for not using your real name.

and still you are offended by my finger, why so sensitive? its not aimed at you or anyone here at current. I dont hold you in high enough regard to use a pic just to piss you off.

Thanks. I gotta be me, who else could I be right. I am brutally honest even when it comes to myself and my own actions.

I knew we had a lot in common other than just...well our political views. Thanks

Those recreational activities sure can take a toll on ones body though cant they?

I am glad I have met you offline via e-mail. send me a email and let me know if you are anywhere between chicago and wyoming or chicago and lake charles LA. I will be out on the road in the coming days. Maybe we can meet up for coffe or something

@Maasanova, that is nothing; I can run up to 50 yards if a large Rottweiler is chasing me!

Thanks for reposting it.

Yes my Brother we have had our fair share of disagreements in the past. Those days are over and we have become friends here Keith. Thanks for the words of encouragement. Glad to hear you too have beaten the addiction. Stay clean.

Thanks for being a friend Keith

@indecisiveh, have you been to the mall? Men hate the mall; except for watching the pretty girls, otherwise we HATE IT!

Just never understood the shopping thing. I want a pair of jeans, I know my size, I walk in, take a pair off the shelf, pay for them and walk out. Even that much is painful, but bearable.

A fellow Chicagoan North or Southside? Southside here. 63rd and Harlem.

Thanks much Sam. I did send you a PM. thanks again

Lucky for me I really dont have to job hunt just shop hunt. I still have my job with the railroad but if I want to keep it I will have to transfer to either one of the coldest place in the states or one of the hotter more humid areas of the states. WYO or the gulf coast in LA.

Thanks for the kind words.

Thank you my brother. We all have a past but its how we look to the future that will determire our final outcome. Take care MoonLoon and thanks again.

Thanks. We all have skeltons in a closet, I am not ashamed of mine. I cant change them I can only learn from them

Thanks much. I will do my best donchaknow

What makes you think its aimed directly at you or anyone here? I dont think you are telling me to take a slow boat to???????????

I always assumed ihatethemall was saying "F Them" (hence his screen name) as opposed to "F You." But he can speak for himself, of course...

Exactly CZ. Its F-Them not F you. He took it or takes it to be aimed directly at him for some reason and I dont know why.

I said that indivdual rights is the political issue I am most passionate about. I did not exclude anyone. We all need to protect our individual liberties. color or sexual preferance has nothing to do with it as far as I am concerned. no one should be discriminated against for any reason.

Slarabee,

I know when I received the set of questions for my interview, I was given a list and asked to rank them. The task rocked me back for a minute or two because the 7 or so items would all have made my top 20. So I prefaced my response by saying they were all important but then made an honest effort to rank them. Thus, number 7 was by no means unimportant, but I just didn't feel it was as critically important as, say, numbers 1-3.

So I don't think ihatethemall is necessarily saying that his lower-ranked items are unimportant (maybe he is/maybe he isn't)...the (admittedly imperfect) analogy that occurred to me when I did mine was if someone asked me to please rank the members of my extended family in order of their importance to me. Out of 20, my cousins might rank down in the teens, but that doesn't necessarily mean I don't love them...

Thats cool Slarabee. It was one of the harder questions to answer for the reasons CZ gave. Which is least important? Which is most? Its almost a crapshoot ya know. They are all very important.

Good one bud. gotta find humor in every aspect of life. I remember Richard Pryor doing a bit on his crack addiction. Pretty funny really.

Your welcome. we all have a past. its how we look to the future that counts.

Thank you

Thanks for that. Made me laugh out loud. I never thought of Ishotthesherrif. Would have been a cool name. Thanks again for the chuckle. and thanks for the favorite hater status.

Thanks Nurse diesel. The wife makes dam well sure my nose is clean. She has piss tested me in the past. That was an agreement I made with her when we left Vegas. and they are observed tests. There is no substitution or adulterations of the piss. She knows all the tricks. I never came up dirty, but she still has a few of those tests sitting around just in case.

It's great to have a long term investment in some one you know has your best interest at heart. It's a rewarding life experience.

Thank you

Its the way I feel about 99% of politicians.

So he's not afraid to rub people the wrong way. I find it respectable. Don't be jealous of the attention :)

I for one applaud that he was chosen, and was allowed to speak his mind and have it be featured.

I truly respect you, Jan, and all the good information that you contribute to this site, but you appear to become more bitter everyday. And I don't understand it. You're smart, you're well informed. You're great. So, why are you so bitter? When one believes another person is obnoxious just because they do not entertain a similar belief system... that is strange to me. I disagree with Ihatethemall often, too. But to visit this post just to belittle him makes no sense to me. Why is this a farce? He laid his whole life out on the table for us. I just don't understand.

I knew you'd show up with another one of your negative comments. Quite predictable really. Last time it was "I'd interview all of those who agree with me." (of course this interview disproves that notion). This time you're improperly using the word farce to describe this interview. I wonder what it will be next time.

Oh, and btw keep tagging this as comedy and not news. Its very passive aggressive.

Thank you for your honesty, Jan.

I was wondering if anyone else was going to say something. I read this interview to try and understand where this user's previous sentiments have come from, desperately searching for a source for all the Hate... I did not find it.

Whenever I read the username "I Hate Them All" my mind has instinctively begun replacing it with the words "I Hate The Jews" because of all the of anti-Israel stories that this username has been connected to here on Current over the past year.

At one point, I actually thought this user had an unhealthy obsession with posting, commenting on, or recommending literally ANY story that would paint Israel or Jews in a bad light - it seemed as though this user actually wanted his name to be synonymous with any and all Anti-Israel sentiment expressed on Current. I wanted to be proven wrong about this user, but so far the mean spirited sentiment towards all things Jewish is all I've seen. In fact, his contributions actually inspired me to start the "Anti-Xenophobia" group here on current.

This is not an insult or a personal attack. I do not think that this user would consider what I'm saying to be an insult or an attack. Look up this user's activity history [type: "Ihatethemall, israel" or "ihatethemall, jews" into the current search box] and you will see that he is not shy about his opinions of Israel, or his feelings about the Jewish people as a whole.

For one example amongst many, read this user's comment on the following story, where he calls the Jerusalem Post the "Jew Post"
http://current.com/items/89681774_ap-dozens-of-hamas-terrorists-captured.htm#896...

I find "I Hate Them All" interesting, because, even after reading this interview, I still do not understand the source of all the self-proclaimed Hate.

It's not bitterness, it's honesty. Sad some don't know the difference, so there is nothing for you to get. He is one of the most obnoxious, rude, and degrading posters on this site proven by his own posts and responses. I don't intend to walk on eggshells here to please the favorites constantly looking for attention.

did I miss something? I thought he very clearly explained that "IHateThemAll" was in reference to politicians, not Jews. But if he is including Jews in there, then we at least have to give him credit for being an equal opportunity hater.

I thought it was funny, but hell, I must be one of those right brainers who refuses to see the world as sharply delineated and certain.

Free speech for all, Jan.

I had to get on here to see how the story went. I knew you would speak so highly of me Jan. For starters you are wrong when it comes to Sarah Palin. I have said in the past that she is a babe and has great legs. At one time I may have supported her. In the last 6 months or so I have said the exact opposite and given my reasons which are obvious to anyone who reads my responses. She is a supporter of israel building larger settlements. That is something I cant support and never will.

So yet again you are wrong with your assessment.

I will be heading to the coalfields of WYO in a couple days to look at their shop. Want me to sed you a load? I hear you can burn it cleanly now.

And just to clear things up. I do not hate jewish people. only their government.

I agree with Jan, the mall is awesome.

Jan said Ihate is "one of the most obnoxious, rude, and degrading posters on this site proven by his own posts and responses." ...?

Hmm. Teapot, this is the kettle. You're looking awfully black today!

Wow. That really was a pretty mean spirited response to a personal interview post. I am not usually one to invoke etiquette but this really wasn't the post for that kind of response. It detracts from the good work that you do, Jan.

Detracts from my good work? I don't think so. You get what you give. And just what "etiquette" are you talking about? A post is made and people respond. I responded honestly not in a vulgar manner. Anyone who doesn't agree can overlook it, but of course here no one can give an honest opinion without being jumped on by the usuals. So much for free speech for all.

ihatethemall you're not allowed to say or write the word "Jew" you hear that?

To: I Hate Them All (and Massanova, while we're at it...)

Above, you say: "I don't hate Jewish People, Only Their Government"

Seriously?

You really don't hear the anti-semitism in that statement? Are you entirely oblivious to the fact that you are insulting every AMERICAN JEW when you say that? How about the Jews born and bred in England, or Ethiopia, or Peru? Are you simply unaware that MOST JEWS ON THIS PLANET ARE NOT FROM ISRAEL? It seems as if you literally refuse to comprehend that Israel is not the home of all the Jews in the world. Whether you wish to believe it or not, millions of Jews are born and bred Americans, just like you! When you say you hate the "Jewish Government" or you "Hate the country where Jews come from," you are expressing Hate for America.

I know I have attempted to explain this to you many times before, but I will do it again. The words "Jew" and "Israeli" are not synonymous. Judaism is a religion, NOT a nationality, and NOT an ethnicity.

When people use the word "Jew" and "Israeli" interchangeably, they are showing their own ignorance. Until you learn to express your opinions about how much you loathe Israel with more clarity, and less ambivalence, especially with regards to these two very important words, you will likely be "misconstrued" as an Anti-Semite by every American who actually knows the difference between the two words.

This is not about "semantics" or being "sensitive" or "PC."
This is simply about a person literally not understanding the meaning of the words they are using.

@JanForGore

"So much for free speech for all."

They're just giving their honest opinion about your opinion. Or are you the only one who can give an honest opinion? Free speech is a two way street.

@Found_Avenue

I strongly disagree with almost all of ihatethemall's views and I do believe his choice of words is regrettable. However, these interviews aren't about whether I agree or disagree with the participant, its about providing our fellow community members a greater understanding of their fellow commentators.

First, it was "current89 only interviews his friends!" Now it's "89 interviewed someone I don't like!" sprinkled with the usual "I can say what I please but I'll bitch and complain when others do!" as well as "anything I don't consider important is stupid!" Poor Jan, everyone calls you out on your mean bitterness and your hypocrisy, and this somehow impedes your free speech. Let me go get my violin for you!

It just comes off as bad form. You don't see that though. To each his/her own. I was exercising my free speech rights by observing how it looks.

this is sad. Jan take a vacation you seem to be angry with everything

Gosh I really never even mentioned the Jewish folks or the government of israel in my interview but I guess I will have to say that it may have been a bad choice of words. Seeing as how I am not a fan of the governments in ANY country, if a jewish person is born in the states and considers the states their home my original statement holds true. If they were born in england of france or wherer ever you feel like naming I would have to say chances are I am no fan of that government either. I certainly am no fan of the israeli government and that was the point I was making or at least trying to.

Mr. HateThemAll, you are correct. You did not mention Jews or Israeli's in this interview.

But with the amount of anti-Israel posts (and "misconstrued" Anti-Semitic comments) that you have uploaded to Current, your name has become synonymous, to some, as a vehicle for anti-Jewish sentiment on this site. This is the only reason I felt compelled to comment about this. I was shocked that someone on Current had interviewed you, without mentioning your self-expressed, long-term hatred for things connected with Judaism. It has seemed like one of your most enduring qualities here on Current, and based on all your comments, I thought you wanted it that way.

Either way, I thank you for your reply earlier, and I am happy that you are now attempting to understand how your choice of words on this topic can be interpreted as vehemently offensive by American Jews who have never set foot in Israel.

Very cool idea and project.

Nice to meet you too mojojuju
