Hello Andrew N. Cothran,

My comments are not as silly as they might appear. I am engaged in a rather subtle attempt to "answer" attacks on my character by the more "liberal" posters on this thread.
I think you know what I am talking about and to whom I refer.
So if they come forward and come clean, I will not have to be so obtuse in my comments.
And at least I don't load up the thread with Latin poetry.


You see, this is exactly part of the problem: Everyone is in Attack Mode and we can't even have a little fun.

If you have been reading the past 130,000 posts, I'm sure you have found we often share a sense of united purpose and friendship even while having opposing political positions.

I think it is an exercise in self-disipline to suppress our hot political opinions (God knows I've tried) for the sake of some incisive analysis and good-natured discussion.

Best regards,

P.S. I'm not picking on you. There are plenty of offenders right now but you seem to be on a roll this morning... :o)

P.P.S. "to whom I refer" has been a long-time contributor who has demonstrated strong support for the goals I've espoused to you here this morning.
