>>when I misspelled loosened

If you were quoting accurately you would not be misspelling. However, you were changing quotes and making it up.

>>you made a big deal out of it posting that it was sick but them misspelled sick as sic. So before you start correcting my spelling don't you think you should learn how to spell four letter words??

"Sic" does not mean "sick" - although you may be into a self-revelation there. "Sic" means that I intentionally reproduced your errors as you had written them:

Main Entry: sic
Pronunciation: 'sik, 'sEk
Function: adverb
Etymology: Latin, so, thus -- more at SO
Date: circa 1859
: intentionally so written -- used after a printed word or passage to indicate that it is intended exactly as printed or to indicate that it exactly reproduces an original <said he seed [sic]g it all>

>>What are you talking about? As Arsenal1 has stated the FED does not lower taxes. So get on board. Neither does Bush appoint Senators, nor congressmen nor governors. Governors are elected by each state. Please don't call my spelling sic. I understand your type and think you may just be trying to provoke me into indulging in name calling. With so many totally inane post, I realize it becomes difficult to understand when everything is not as it appears to be.

If I could figure that mess out I might have reason to question my sanity.
