I was banned from your thread and I couldn't be happier! Kind of like being kicked out of a car going cross country with your mother in law. alan w

"Every ban has my approval...... Now if you want to do what you say you would namely carry on a intellectual discussion, then surely you are welcome...." Gee, you banned me & I didn't engage in personal attacks or anything that would have violated the standards for discussion on your thread. All I did was respond to a few posts & provide factual information that refuted what another poster said. I was prepared to continue my intellectual discussion until you summarily banned me. So could you explain precisely why I was banned? TIA

You ban me because I called you an ignorant facist braindead bozo. And I stand by my statement. I think I also said it must suck to be you.

I banned you and nobody else C'mon, I didn't just fall off the turnip truck. You did in fact ban me after I made a few civil posts you simply disagreed with. In fact, the thread heading, unless it has been recently modified, suggests that the board is essentially a cheerleading venue, which is fine, but no one should expect an honest discussion at a place where groupthink is the coin of the realm.
