Tell me about the common interest that will reunite West Virginia and Virginia. Why do these two states not share a budget, laws, a two state wide government? Why doesn't rich Virginia at least give money to support poor West Virginia? Why don't they at least erase the border between them? Because a common interest doesn't exist.
So obviously there are common, shared reasons for states to stay in the United States.
So I'll re-pose the questions again:
What is in America's interests?
What is in Americans' interests?
SECONDRATE hates America and he hates Americans. That's why he wants to see Americans fighting each other, and dissolving into chaos. The thought of America, and Americans, uniting on their common interests scares the crap out of him for some twisted reason and he's doing his level best to make sure that it doesn't happen.

His last four emails explain his views, those of a stereotypical Republican dentist:

The only way that the rich keep their money is to keep everyone else fighting each other.
Second chose to be a rich Democrat so he can pretend to be a good guy.

Quote:I chose Democrat because Republicans passionately talk nonsense. Their anti-Communism rhetoric talked me into Vietnam, but the strategy they used was absolutely the stupidest I have ever seen. It was not funny how the Republicans misunderstand how ridiculously that war was fought. Since then, there has been even more stupid from Republicans. I can't join those guys, even while they try reducing my taxes to nothing.

Nah. You chose to be a Democrat so your fake rich online persona can be a fake good guy.

Quote:You seem to have forgotten that the Vietnam war was mostly prosecuted by Democrats- JFK and especially LBJ - and that it was Nixon that wound it down.
SECONDRATE: It was not funny how the Republicans misunderstand how ridiculously that war was fought. Since then, there has been even more stupid from Republicans. I can't join those guys, even while they try reducing my taxes to nothing.
The stupidity that got you into the tail end of a losing war continues to this day. Instead of taking responsibility for your mistakes and learning from them, you've spent a lifetime blaming others and bitterly hating those not responsible for your own stupidity. Also, blaming others for your own greed and your other slimy moral choices.
And that translates to hating an awful lot of Americans and wanting to see America destroyed.

Quote:Oh yeah? WHAT exactly is a stereotypical Republican dentist? And do you want to add any more qualifiers so that you don't have to admit not all republicans are uneducated bubbas? Humble beginnings? Put himself through school? Hardworking? Ex-mayor?
those of a stereotypical Republican dentist
Sheesh.
OH! And THANKS for once again avoiding the questions you obviously can't make yourself answer:
What is in America's interests?

You know Signy, there are things I don't want to think about too deeply or for too long. And one of them is whatever is going on in SECOND's head. I think he's far more deviant than I'd care to imagine.
And his interactions here are nothing if not tactical. For example, he uses information from his PIs to probe here for weakness - looking for defensive responses from people as he pokes them about various personal topics (or has induced other people to do, for example his recent focus on Jack and suicide).
As for his claim that he paid a PI to look into is own history just out of curiosity, I suspect he was looking for holes in his alibis - what could he be 'got' on - just to make sure his official history was airtight.
It's not important to him to BE moral - truthful, honorable, charitable - it's important to not be caught at being everything but.

Yup. I really wish I had been reprogrammed to be such a fine, upstanding individual such as yourself.
You seem to be on your best behavior today though. I assume you actually looked into the prison time you could be facing if somebody half as tenacious as I were to press the issue.
Good doggie.
