But I must ask you, is calling someone "MORON!!!" polite?

It may not be polite...but as I have used it and seen it used on this thread toward certain folks...it sure is accurate.

"is calling someone "MORON!!!" polite?"

Save me from "polite" people and "nice" people. People who are not phoney (people with values) are either for or against something or another. I value people who have values and judgements. Pretending that phoney morons are not phoney morons is a game for dummies. Bill is a straight shooter, as are many on this thread.

Maybe calling somebody a rapist is not polite, either? So should we all stop making judgements?? Should we all suffer Baboons of Ban and their ilk and be "nice" to them?? I'm nice to people I respect. Give me a straight shooter any day. We keep this world ethical; we keep this world proper.
