You really are an imbecile. He made two tweets and you totally ignored

still apply today.

You're not much of a people person, are you? Philo is obviously not an
imbecile. What he IS is someone who cares about what actually happened
to the people at Pearl Harbor.

If you understood people, you'd understand he's probably not the only
person to "hear" the same thing from the comments Gingrich made. It's
an emotionally charged issue, and you've shown you've no skill to
understand how or why people would respond emotionally to anything.


Thanks. Gingrich's statement was just not the thing to do.

I dunno. I think what he said wasn't wrong...

My issue was not only calling the dastardly attack "brilliant", it was
that he completely ignored America

What he said made me think ... I read his words many times. If it had
been the US who had done that to an enemy of ours, and we destroyed
their ships and planes with a gigantic surprise attack like that, we'd
be calling it "brilliant planning and execution" of epic military
strategy of the day. So, I understand what he was saying.
