Please tell us about your deep-seated fear of Obama. Compared to previous presidents, he seems pretty good to me. Your statement confirms my analysis. Fear Obama?? That's idiocy. I fear the led-by-the-nose disciples that voted for him. And for Bush. And for Clinton. Obama would make a great class president, like Bush would have. Bush and Obama's legacy is that they make CLINTON look good. That's the same as being stranded for years on an island and Rosie O'Donald washes up on the beach - then, she'd look good too. (sorry about the horrid mental imagery) 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. With YOUR voluntary input, I don't need to insult you. You're doing fine by yourself. I didn't put Bush in office, and never voted for him. (The reality is NO one voted for Bush, or the losers that ran against him. Or for Mr. Magoo or Obama) You have confirmed that your you have a sycophant-affection for a political party, as about 25% of "Americans" do. That again confirms the deficiencies. Mindless affection for a "party" establishes dysfunctional status. You have LOADS of company. You never answered - government "employee" or union member? BOTH?????? Neither. Feel free to call me some more names. What a loser. Why would you consider "government employee" and "union member" names? And isn't calling someone a "loser" calling a name? Why would consider re-reading all his previous posts, since it would be obvious what I'm talking about. What would you call him? -- Nom=de=Plume Correct. Thank you, but calling him a loser more than once isn't appropriate. -- Nom=de=Plume There's that lack of reading comprehension again. Or are you being intentionally bitchy? reply: Debating with Nom=de=Plume is like debating a jellyfish and contesting the results. As Nancy Reagan said, JUST SAY NO. Too similar to 'debating' Harry. Probably is... De Plume is the quintessence of sophistry. Chaos has no better ally. De Plume is simply a 'little' better mannered De Krause. I suspect that, in person, De Plume is affable and considerate. But, her propensity for disconnected thinking and her penchant for sophistry in these threads is disquieting. I was tempted with the thought of encouraging the title "Queen Quintessa of Sophistry." That would be mean-spirited, though. In the long run, I have no doubt that she means well, unlike Harry. I'm affable and considerate here also. I didn't say that you weren't, Miss De Plume. However, you have demonstrated in these threads that you can be patronizing and condescending, at least in tone if not in intent. And those particular qualities are not in accord with one who can also demonstrate substantially poor powers of reasoning. That does not take away from your affability, in any event. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

And to be honest, there isn't a person in the world that isn't capable of lapsing into occasional episodes of poor thinking.

It seems to me that you do try to be civil and engaging; but, there has been at least one instance in responding to me in which you were overtly patronizing (and that's forgiveable). That doesn't rob you of your overall comportment, though, which appears benign. And that's a characteristic missing in far too many conversations in this group.
