Question then:

When you enter your voting booth, do you vote a straight Democratic
ticket?

Or, do you pick and choose, voting for a Republican here and there if
you
think the person running is better qualified.

Honest answer only, please.

You are asking for the impossible.

Yes, but he believes Harry respects him enough to be honest.




You *do* enjoy twisting things around a bit. I never said anything like
that.

All I ever said that was in terms of civil discussion, I try to afford
the
same respect to Harry as he gives to me.
Same with you, Loogey, justwait, ...... and the rest.

Eisboch


You don't believe he shows his respect by being honest?

I'd certainly not have much respect for one who couldn't be honest in his
discussions!




Since you brought it up .... consider this:

I have absolutely no way of knowing if Harry lies or tells the truth.
Other than this NG, I have no knowledge of him.
Same with all but a very few people (that I have met or otherwise know)
that frequent this group.

So, for me to claim Harry, you, or anybody here is lying or dishonest ....
would be dishonest in itself .... because I'd be making a claim that I
have no way of proving.

Therefore, I don't fret about it like some others. What difference does
it make anyway? It's only a newsgroup.

Make sense?

Eisboch


Perfect sense to me!
Johnny is upset because he can't control you or a handful of others here.
