Doesn't matter to me. I was simply reminding you that you're the guy who
recently came up with a bunch of excuses for not getting involved in town
politics,

Which was based on personal experience. When you hit yourself on the
head with a brick, and you find out that it hurts, do you do it again?

Awwww....poor Dave. It was too difficult to get to your local politicians,
so you stepped out of the democratic process for good.

Not for good, just from different means.

Sometimes, doing some sort of maintenance in your attic requires getting all
itchy from the fiberglass insulation. But you still do it.

There is a point where the hassle becomes much easier to deal with if
you pay someone else to do it.


and that this suggests the unlikelihood of your taking any
intitiative to find out how your president or representatives vote.

You have absolutely NO idea of just what I am currently involved with
politically. To give you a hint, I was invited to attend the
republican convention, but I declined because I just don't have that
kind of money to throw around.

Oooh. That must've been a really exclusive mailing list you were on, along
with 23 million other people.

It wasn't a mailing list, it was a personal invite.

You don't seem to absorb much.

I'm not the one trying to pass off emotionally charged rhetoric, and
pure speculation, as fact.

What good does knowing more do for you, when most of it is wrong?

There's no doubt there's little in your head but right-wing extremism
and selfishness. Wait...they're the same thing.

Yep, along with the other 23 million "personal invites".
