JimH,
The problem with making rec.boats a political forum is it diminishes
the
value of a legitimate boating related posts. Since I am a proponent of
mandatory education, I wondered why the political comment was not
removed
by the person cut and pasting the post.

A non political post would have been more effective in selling the
concept.

You had to turn a good news story into a political one?

If so, how about offering specifics on the bill so we can see why
"uninformed Republicans" opposed it?


How about listing the party affiliations of those voting for and
against it?

*******

Start at the top. Read slowly. I passed along an e-mail, sent to
several hundred people around the state. I did not make the comment
about the political affiliation or the level of information available
to the people who opposed the bill.

Baloney. You would not have posted the "email" otherwise.

So how about a link and a detailing of who voted for and against it?



He also had to throw in an insult (start at the top, read slowly).

4 posts by Chuck, one insult, one personal attack.

Way to go Chuck.



In the time it's taken you to whine and type 2 messages, you could've
found
the web site for the state legislature in question, and checked the
details
yourself. But, the fact is, you don't really want to.




Neither "Smith" nor Hertvik have any interest in this newsgroup beyond
disrupting it and diminishing its value. Both of them log on here in
various "identities," and seek only to engage in 7th grade insulting.
That's why both of them are permanent members of my bozo bin.


Ho ho ho! If that isn't the pot calling the kettle black.

What about your senseless political contributions? Do you not think
that they are equally disrupting?

People in glass houses should not throw rocks....

Krause calling me on the carpet for these things is comical.

I know I post more on topic than Krause. I know I don't call names. I know
I can carry on a discussion without personal attacks. I generally do not
start OT threads.

I don't think it is a pot/kettle situation....Harry Krause is in a league
all by himself and does not even realize it.
