I started this thread after seeing some disturbing things written by an anonymous person on a newspaper I was reading in a resturaunt. It bothered me and I thought it would bother most any reasonable person - I was wrong. Then another poster claimed it was all racially motivated, which I never said in my op or any subsequent post, but I got accused of making it racial. Then several said something like my guy was treated as bad as your guy, even though I thought I made it clear that Obama wasn't my guy, and I did think that Bush was treated poorly, though not to the same level. Then a poster takes umbrage with what I said and starts attacking me personally and I retaliate, and the thread begins to totally deteriorate and come apart at the seams. Anyone reading the last half of this thread would have little or no idea what the thread was begun about. And some of you wonder why there is little substantive discussion on this forum?
