Integrity? Check the dictionary |
The facts speak for themselves. Issues such as integrity and decency are of
the utmost importance to the American people. ACLU take note.

200,000 who surfed onto Webster's site for definition may show U.S. concern
about values.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass.-- In a year filled with political wrangling, natural
disasters and pop culture curiosities, Americans turned to Merriam-Webster
to help define it all.
Filibuster. Refugee. Tsunami. Each was among the dictionary publisher's 10
most frequently looked-up words among some 7 million users of its online
site.
But topping the list is a word that some say gives insight into the
country's collective concern about its values: integrity.
The noun, formally defined as a "firm adherence to a code" and
"incorruptibility," has always been a popular one on the Springfield-based
company's Web site, said Merriam-Webster President John Morse. But this
year, the true meaning of integrity seemed to be of extraordinary concern.
About 200,000 people sought its definition online.
"I think the American people have isolated a very important issue for our
society to be dealing with," Morse said. "The entire list gives us an
interesting window that opens up into what people are thinking about in
their lives."

You idiot. If you traced the IP addresses you'd find that most of the
queries about "integrity" came from the Whitehouse, and they STILL haven't
figured out what it means!

So explain to us and everyone else how you traced the White House's IP
addresses. I'm sure they'd love to know.

1. Which American Civil Liberty guaranted under the Constitution of the
United States would you be willing to surrender?
2. Which American Civil Liberty guaranteed under the Constitution of the
United States would you be willing to have some other American citizen's
right taken away?
3. Do you oppose the Civil Rights of any American?

you continue to demonstrate your ignorance of usenet newsgroups,
scumball, and your disrespect for readers' ability to decide for
themselves what is and is not appropriate.
do you feel like a hypocrite criticizing others for doing what you do?

Isn't is great when superstitious assholes define what, exactly,
integrity and decency is.
The same people that ignored the Holocaust until it was obvious,
the people that shuffled pedophiles to protect them, until it was
obvious, the people that kill because of no contraception, until it
was obvious and it's okay to eat meat on Friday... now....
Stutter...stutter... stutter....
And are now hawking the same 'we are wonderful and perfect' bleat
to the world.
Have you no shame?

Indeed.
You wouldn't understand "integrity" if your life depended on it.
