I was interested to know which of the behaviors I described, entirely accurately, you approved. As is your wont, you insult, and deny, but offer no evidence to support your denials. Where's the beef? It is really very simple, and I do it as a matter of routine: If you have made a mistake, or said something unfair or intemperate, acknowledge, retract, apologize. That's what decent people do, JLA. If one leaves the ugliness lying there, one shouldn't be surprised that the offended party remains offended. That is soooo simple. Which do you disagree happened yet refuse to contradict? Let's take them one at a time, because maybe i'll get some substance out of you if it's laid out simply. Here was my first question:Is it a refusal to eat crap to claim someone dissed our "young men in uniform" who are fighting against terrorism for this country, and then to refuse to either substantiate the accusation or apologize? (You guys are hilariously predictable. I fully expect Neocon to come and and obfuscate in a gentlemanly style any minute now, as he usually does when his minions have made complete fools of themselves.) Let me make the question above clearer. Did Poet diss our your men in uniform? Where? I'd be interested in "interpretations" and "feelings," that she did, too. I think you diss our service men and women, JLA. I have that feeling. Because you diss me and I am a woman and I perform services. In a minute I'm going to go make a chicken salad, for example. Give a little substance, and we can move on to the next question.
