this thread wasn't started to promote R or make light of what a D might see in it.
Face value...no between the lines...no hidden meanings...forget the author...forget defending to the 3rd decimal point...it was the rationale most of which is possible and hence notable that is the point of the thread.

It seems there can be no issue/thought/thread/what ever that can escape the auot defense mechanisms or the partisan snipping.
