You are mistaken as to the overall tone of posts from me and brees. Disagreement is not, in fact, looking for a chance to put you in the wrong. But thanks for the candor about your own motives. On the matter of indirection: if X may be A or B or C, then X does not directly refer to B, but only indirectly does so, and the correlation is conjectural. On the matter of brees' "hypocrisy": since he did not intend it as a real insinuation, but as an off the wall comment, he was not being nasty, and therefore was not a hypocrite. Yeah, I thought it dumb to not get it. Still do. That is not a general assessment, though. Lighten up......

You have been frank and honest about this more than once: "There is of COURSE a motive for putting Brees in the wrong I said that miles back." You are wrong about me having the same objective. Most of us assume motives in others match our own. I think it has something to do with another side of the golden rule coin; because sometimes it has to do with incidious and underhanded stuff. I have made it a point to find agreement with folk on both sides of the political perspective as well as disagreement with folks (especially if they might give the appearance of an alliance with me) on both sides of the political perspective. You assume I am a right winger. Well, I may be moving along the continuum but I have never registered as anything but a democrat. What you did yesterday was incidious and underhanded. I gave you the benefit of doubt for the first couple of posts. But it became abundantly clear that you had an agenda that was not innocent. It was inconsiderate and hurtful to promote an image that was based on hate and ultimately not true. Of course, I expect either denial or assurances that you simply don't give a crap.
