I've read that one three times now and still don't get the joke, Mike. Perhaps I'm slow tonight but I would love a chuckle. Care to help me out?

Dear John,
Sure. Thanks for asking.

You seldom post links to substantiate your arguments...yet you constantly demand them from others when they argue a point you made.
You lambast everyone in sight at will.
You make individual and personal slams on a regular basis.

Yet you have no tolerance for similar heat. You can't take it.

I used to think it was funny too...An occasional jab meant in good humor is OK, but it has become impossible to engage you in meaningful dialogue.

Lately, everytime anybody gets close to that...you suddenly don't have time, or you rant for links...or worse you write off the poster with a personal dig.

It ain't pretty, and it ain't becoming, and it sure as hell ain't intellectual.

Of course you can ignore all of this critique because I'm just an old SF soldier...what could I know?

I can tell you what I do know about your latest arguments...You and the NYT reporters you quote and love so much do not have it quite right. This is one helluva great country and it wasn't made that way by the medicaid and sodomy you so favor.

Finally John, please do not make another dig about anyone else's military service. You need to walk a mile in their shoes before making any judgements. And I wish you would walk that mile..."For those who have fought for it life and freedom have a flavor the protected will never taste."

There, now you can chuckle.
