Hey, only liberal spew is allowed here. Chucky is gonna' be ****ed...


I just deleted my smart ass retort, leaving room here for you to post
an apology for your false and malicious characterization.

Fact is, last week you did not like what I said, so you outed me, the
nuclear option if you will in a news group. You have acted this way in
the past, no reason to think you won't do it again. Nothing more to
say about it.- Hide quoted text -

Odd. I don't seem to remember making any personal attack on you-
particularly of a "nuclear" caliber. Take another look, Scotty- it was
*another poster* who answered the question about your previous handles
in the NG. I merely stated that you had been posting here for years.

Your unprovoked personal attack in this thread is duly noted. While
you "think" that I "might" act a certain way in the future- you might
want to consider evaluating your own actions in the present.

I have commented unfavorably about political trolls from all sides.
Ask jps and Doug Kanter......and do try to pay some attention if
you're going to presume to be an authority on what I will or won't do.

Have a pleasant day.- Hide quoted text -

You too... still think your unlimited hydro driver and sponsorship is
cool, we'll get over it.

You shouldn't belittle moveon.org. Look how much it helped Kerry.


Didn't help him nearly as much as Swiftboaters did, eh?

Freakin' skanks.


All he had to do was sign his Form 180- then we'd all know the truth.

Probably could have sued the swift boaters for millions (if he wasn't lying)


What's a form 180? Never heard about it.

He didn't challenge any of the funny business in Ohio. Most people
there think he had standing to challenge some seriously suspect outcomes
in addition to a vote suppression effort.

All politicians are liars. Comes with the territory. Kerry wasn't a
professional politician in Vietnam.

Perhaps we could enlist them to suppress political speech on
rec.boats? Where's George Soros when we need him?

You can always tell when the weather starts to get cold in the north.

Things are still nice here in the Chesapeake however, although the
nights are getting cool. Our new inverter powered electric blanket is
doing a super job but that morning dash to the generator and heating
controls gets your attention. On our old Bertram I could reach the
electrical controls from the bunk, an unappreciated advantage of
smaller boats. The weather during the day has just been super for
over a week.

Meanwhile we are still awaiting our first sighting of a LT Parker.
Most of the boats out on the bay seem fairly substantial but we are
not yet south of Annapolis where most of the elusive LT sightings have
been reported. I'm keeping the camera constantly ready for an on
water foto op. Stay tuned.

Busy with his hedge fund creating havoc in the oil and money markets
trying to ruin the American economy.

39 freakin' degrees this morning at 5 AM when I rolled out to let the
dogs out.

Kind of like going to the outhouse in January. :)

(For the record, when I was an active hunter, I've done that - it
ain't fun let me tell you what.)

Keep us posted.

I've heard tales of LTPs in the lower Bay area.

A susbtantial reward will be offered for any images of same. :)

Chuck is correct. I am the one who highlighted some of your previous
posts but I don't regard that as "outing" some one. Everything we
post on Usenet is preserved for history somewhere. Google knows all
and tells all. That said, most of us who have been around for awhile
recognize writing styles, ISPs, geographic references and other little
factoids that make it difficult to hide behind a new handle. How many
conservative leaning boat builders, on the Connecticut River, and
active on the internet do you think there are?

Just another good reasons to take political posts somewhere else...

You're talking to a guy who has done Army bivouacs in the snow with a
pup tent. We thought it was tough at the time and then you look at
some of the recent WW2 footage of guys who spent weeks and months like
that. Same thing in Korea I guess.
