I have never had any desire to "change the minds" of any here who disagree with my political views. And I only plonk juvenile assholes, like your good buddy in Florida. I don't know that Gore won. But I am sure Bush lost. -- Religion: together we can find the cure. |

His plonking buys him time to research or think up, what he thinks, is a clever response. I've seen him go from a nasty, bitter, self centered, asshole, to a bumbling idiot, over the course of a few short years. Nevertheless Harry IS Mr. Entertainment for us boating enthusiasts. What would we ever do without him? Imagine someone like Harry having a boat in a slip up in Situate and openly carrying on there the way Harry does here in rec.boats. He would be booted out by marina management before half the season was over under demand by his slip neighbors. In the real world nobody would tolerate his political proselytism for very long. BTW, Harry says proselytism turns his stomach. Proselytism isn't limited to attempted conversion of religious views. It also applies to views or opinions on any subject. No doubt Harry has his share of belly aches. ;-) It would be funny to see him booted from the cradle of liberaldom. -- "The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure.

Exit polls typically do not reveal "results" from a polling place but, rather, the results of people who were asked a series of questions as they left the polling place. There is no law against exiting polling or posting the results of exit polls, contrary to what you claimed. Live with it. The media posted the actual results from the polls counts while the Western part of the state was still voting. So what law was broken? |
