Seriously, i'm not normally this combative, but how can someone with a masters be so dumb whom can't understand the armchair metaphor.
And before you call me a sheep i'll point out I too have multiple degrees and certifications.

I don't think you're a sheep, you're just simply being a jerk.
In this thread I was talking specifically about my being one of THOUSANDS of protesters at the RNC in NYC in 2004. An insignificant face in the crowd adding to the strength in numbers. I doubt anyone knew who I was when the RNC was over. So I fail to see how this was self-promotion. I was one of thousands voicing opposition to Bush's policy of preemptive war and specifically the invasion of Iraq.
What do you mean I don't understand the armchair metaphor? You accused me of being an armchair critic, meaning someone who just plays e-commentator from behind his computer screen instead of actually going out and doing something to make the world a better place. I responded that I do more than just commentate on online forums and do take anti-war / 911truth protesting to the streets. I think I understand the metaphor quite well.
Go ahead, have the last word.
