Good lord, have all you people lost your collective minds. Someone posts a political "satire" that gets expected results. Some scream foul and fire back in kind. Others salivate that "OMG! George W. Bush is a terrorist!" while compatriots complain the the responses were below the belt. And somebody brings up Omar Bradley, for God's sake! It has gotten too damned predictable and boring. So I committed the ultimate sin. I figured very possibly the most insignificant issue available, other than most of your arguments, was the grammar. So I brought it up. Susan saw the facetiousness and hopefully the humor of it. Look at her 10:36 post. If others missed it, too bad.

Regardless, you're all taking your opinions too damned seriously and not only refusing to accept anyone else's but seemingly you're denying them the right to even have them. Believe it or not, you do not know everything in the world. Your views are not sacrosanct. We can all learn something from others, whether we agree with them or not. In fact, generally we learn the most from those with whom we disagree. But first we have to listen.

If any of my language offended anyone, eh sorry. However, please do not clean it up. If you must, just delete the thing. Tirade over.

[renielarson]

Hey Muncle...you're slowly coming around.... :bigthumbsup:

[Boomer]

I am so sleepy and I cannot stop watching this. When are you all going to kiss and make up? I can't stay awake much longer.

I always duck this stuff. I did not even know it was happening. I was blissfully writing about cabbage. I really do hope though that someone will tell me if I used the wrong kind of onion.

Goodnight.

gfmucci, if you think I'm going to look up and log the crimes committed, around the world, by people named "Smith" in the last month, you've really gone over the edge. Much better things to do with my time, like campaigning for Obama. :bigthumbsup:

[samhass]

Muncle, That was an excellent post. Thank you.

* Somebody's got to go over the edge now and then.* Might as well be me.* Oh, and there is no comparable list with "Smith". I've checked.

Yeah, that's what other Democrats have told me...that I raised her to think for herself. Another sign of offspring throwing off the influence and wisdom of their elders.
