Thanks for your pity.

I am not bitter, no matter how often you and your other crony may say that over the years over and over. I simply do not like people like you and your crony(s) who find humor in mocking other posters...not speaking of me...you have been doing that publicly and privately for years. I am speaking of people who post how they feel on subjects they feel strong enough about to voice their opinion and are subject to a smart aleck one line barb which I suppose you find very funny.

I put nobody down and simply ask that folks explain why they would respond to someone who made a serious post like this......"Please go re-read your ninth grade civics textbooks. Even for you, this post is utter nonsense."

THAT to me was a put down and since I know you and your style, I just decided to call you out on it. I am sure that at times, with the guest moniker, I mistake you and your childish friends and have been rude to them and normally I end up apologizing when that happens. I might add that my put downs, as you call them, are reserved for those who mock this forum with the "cracks" and not simply because I disagree. Why you and your cronies do not just stay out of here if you are not going to reply in an intelligent manner is mysterious to me, but I suppose you guys enjoy the mocking.

The "other forum" you speak of is not somewhere I have been in many months, but since you mentioned it and that id'ed you, I figured you must have been up to no good again over there and thus I just came back and read a few of your posts oh LORD as you call yourself over there and of course you were talking about posters from this forum as you always do.

I apologize to anyone who had to read this but I know who I am speaking to and I still think he should be explain his comments to a poster who took the time to post his/her feelings and be responded to with "Please go re-read your ninth grade civics textbooks. Even for you, this post is utter nonsense."
