Well, you boys have a nice break. I'm outta here for an adventure for a
week and a half!

May your big jib always draw..... and the wind be at your back.
Have fun sailing and don't agree to any purchases until you have a chance
to
return home & sleep on it.

Come on Don. If anyone really thought about it, nobody would buy a
boat ;-)

You just get caught up in the moment and come home with one.
That is why they have boat shows.

I guess.
I've been on the very edge of buying a couple of boats this summer....
one, a small Boston Whaler, and the other a 17' daysailer.

I'll give you a very good deal on a gently used Parker and the surrey top is
already installed.

Bingo! The Tea Party is not a racist org.

How many large tea party rallies have you attended, Jackoff?
I've walked by two of them in DC and noticed plenty of signs,
tee-shirts, and what-not of the attendees with blatantly racist
artwork and phrases on them. Tea party types remind me of a time in
U.S. history when we were plagued by the "know nothings."

Many on the left (including some here) conclude that if one does not
fully endorse Obama and his agenda, one is a racist. Simple as that.

Complete BS. Please show us an example of this. You can't. You're
just
lying.

I don't have to try hard. Let me see. Let's start with the signature
favored lately by one of this newsgroup's frequent liberal posters:

"The Republican Party is racist, and so is its base, which forms the
bulk
of the tea party."

At the last GOP national convention. what percentage of the delegates
and alternates were blacks or latinos?

No clue. I suppose if I were really inclined to notice such things, I
might be a racist and your accusation might have merit. Could have been
10 percent. Could have been 60 percent.
I really didn't notice or record the stats.

Do you really pay attention to such matters? Are you a racist?

When one of the two major political parties fields candidates for
national office, I think it important to consider who that party and
its candidates represent. Oh, and it was 1.5 per cent.

From CNN:

"After seating a record number of African American delegates in 2004,
next week's Republican National Convention in Minneapolis/St. Paul
will have the lowest black representation in 40 years, according to a
convention guide that will be distributed next week to delegates at
the Republican National Convention by the Joint Center for Political
and Economic Studies (Joint Center).

"Blacks and the 2008 Republican Convention, released today by the
nonpartisan research institution that focuses on minority issues,
notes that African Americans will comprise only 1.5 percent of the
total number of GOP delegates, substantially below the record setting
6.7 percent in 2004.

"The 36 black delegates in 2008 represent a 78.4 percent decline from
the 167 black delegates at the 2004 GOP convention."

The GOP represents white Americans. I have no interest in voting for
candidates of a party that represents only white Americans.

Watch for the "change"!

Sure. More boats to store and admire from your window...
