Give us <br />hard facts, good or bad. All the <br />assertions all the promises <br />mean zilch. <br />Personally I don't care what <br />Better Together has to say, <br />most of it is nonsense. But if <br />the SNP want me to take a <br />chance on Independence best <br />way to do it is to state some <br />cold hard facts. The promise of Nirvana, milk and honey ain't gonny happen. <br />Grow up Hamish and learn, snake oil salesmen will tell you what you want to hear.

“You usually report my comments accur...Dear Hamish<br /><br />“You usually report my comments accurately and fairly, but on this occasion tou are putting words in my mouth. I did not say I would vote for the Nazis”.<br /><br />I am happy you have decided to public state that you would not vote for the Nazis.<br /><br />If you remember I asked in the moral maze question:<br /><br />"If the Nazis got into power and wanted Scottish independence, would you vote for it?" <br /><br />You replied:<br /><br />“Yes, of course”.<br /><br />So, you won’t vote for the Nazis but in the hypothesis you would vote for one of their policies.<br /><br />I am sure you can understand the confusion because in politics, people claim that if you vote for them then you have signed up to their whole agenda.<br /><br />“Your hypothesis was that the Nazis were in power in the current UK, pre-independence. All the more reason to leave the Union if that were the case”.<br /><br />Obviously I was talking about the Scottish setup rather than the current UK, I hope you are not trying to put words into my mouth Hamish?<br /><br />You will be glad to know that someone has picked up the story.<br /><br />http://paper.li/RealDavidMc/1334314237<br /><br />Apparently my little blog is getting quoted and spread about the place.<br /><br />And the answer to the moral maze question is still No!<br /><br />Yours sincerely<br /><br />George Laird<br />The Campaign for Human Rights at Glasgow UniversityG Lairdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07634338820731652821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7972114991869354050.post-38744280243513714632013-10-30T08:22:10.897+00:002013-10-30T08:22:10.897+00:00THERE ARE MANY NATIONALISTS OUT THERE WITH THE SAM...THERE ARE MANY NATIONALISTS OUT THERE WITH THE SAME VIEW GEORGEAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05065926261039203144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7972114991869354050.post-16110921437571367052013-10-30T08:21:07.895+00:002013-10-30T08:21:07.895+00:00WELL SAID MR LAIRDWELL SAID MR LAIRDAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05065926261039203144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7972114991869354050.post-22581816324179220482013-10-29T20:06:16.029+00:002013-10-29T20:06:16.029+00:00Dear George.
