It isn't me, blame someone else. He/she is prolific though. I
stopped posting political stuff for our truce and have kept my
word.
I always thought jps was HK but will give him/her the benefit of
doubt. If y'all will look back at Toots first posts, you will
see
that I tried to discourage him/her due to said truce.

Hey, a couple of us are discussing philosophy in another thread
and
we
haven't come to blows yet. I think boating is a philosophy. I was
never
much
of a power boater.. don't see the attraction.. if I want to go
fast,
I
take
a plane. Sailing on the other hand, seems very zen-like.
Ms Plume has been a cogent poster here and I enjoyed our
exchanges,
even if we don't agree on a lot of things but I think I am joining
the
"trusers" myself. When discussions simply become insults I don't
want
to participate anymore.
Thanks! Agreement is over-rated anyway. It doesn't add much to
understanding if all you have is a bunch of people nodding their
heads
in
agreement. When I'm with my close friends, we argue all the time
about
politics and religion. A couple of them are Born-againers and we
can
have
a lively discussion without screeching.
I'm afraid you won't see that happening here, Sweetie. There's some
folk
here that are programmed to holler racist, bigot, moron, and insult
family
members at every opportunity. It's usually in response to someone
expressing an opinion on politics or religeon.
You never answered John about why you get so aroused over talking
with
a
bunch of nasty old men about religion and politics. Don't you have
anything better to do?
Pot, kettle, black. Looks like you're outnumbered by reasonable people

Like most liberals, you're numerically and judgmentally challenged.
Like most people, I call them the way I see them.
Hmm... the two aren't mutually exclusive.
Have a good weekend!
Hmmm... I don't disparage those who have a different political philosophy.


"Unlike Republicans, Democrats are much less monolithic."
"Perhaps they're clinging to their guns and bibles"
"Or are you talking about Republicans, who didn't lift a finger when
Bush spent
like crazy? "
"Sickening. Glen Beck/Rush Limbaugh mentality."
"Are you telling us you condone what the previous president *you* put
in
office did? Feel free to insult me or say it's Bush rationale if that
makes
you feel better. "

That's just a quick review of a few of your posts where you most
definitley *did* attempt to disparage those who have a different
political philosophy. I'm sure you'll now say that they are just your
observations, but they, by definition, "disparage those who have a
different political philosophy".

Words do have meaning, you know.


Reply: Nothing was disparaging in anything I said. I didn't insinuate
anything about you personally. However, you have no problem doing that with
others.

Words definitely have meaning, I do know.


Sweetcheeks, you have your bloomers all wedged up. Lighten up. Forget
about politics for a while. Tell us about your boating adventure with
that older couple. After all you signed on here to discuss boating,
didn't you?
