Re: "I'm at 1580 SAT combined, match that mofo. " Well, others have pretty fairly put you in your place for that one, I'll only add honestly, that reversal is the order of the day as you place my intellect in fifth grade, then continue on to brag and bitch, exactly like a fifth grade bully. What was that you were saying about how you could tell when you were winning on these threads? I think I'm winning by your criteria. Too bad for the cause, comrade. So long as you believe George Bush ordered the attacks of 911, desires to create a police state, and etc., you are quite logical in your thinking(IMO). However, the rest of us know that your premises are just a B.S. Reality. Libertarians won't follow you, Republicans won't follow you, few Democrats will follow you...but as you've stated, "I am the one that's sane." I'll remember you said that, indeed. Dan B
