By the way, lest silence is seen as assent, I just want to note that the TIHTWWDDI position while resulting in a (not so) short acronym, does not reflect my position (and I suspect others on this blog who have a difference of opinion with you on this aspect of the world view) - unfortunately the devil is in the details and acronyms don’t capture them. You can go ahead and use it as a strawman, but pummelling it into shreds may be pointless.

Bravo.
For the sake of the “gentle readers” as blogger papi calls ‘em, the seemingly weird title of this post has its roots in the following comment made in an earlier post by our acronym loving kinnum:
“This Is How The World Works, Don’t Demonize It” (TIHTWWDDI, for easy use by myself from now on).

Kinnum, You still around. I thought that you’d have joined some kibbutz by now.

Bravo indeed:
A JohnKerryism?
BTW, another pummel: http://snipurl.com/mtgs
Maybe this is not obvious to you kinnum, but cherrypicking what people say is not a way to establish their position. Happy pummelling.
