Generally one is expected to give a reason or reasons for making such a strong utterance as "I HATE George Jr.!" There is always somebody ready to take up the cudgel in poor Junior's defense and yet another incendiary thread with 500 posts is born. You haven't been around here that long? This IS The Cellar, after all! :eyebrow:

it just doesn't make a lot of sense to me. It's like you and others are participating in a pissing match, trying to out-do the others with your reasoning and your ability to substantiate our point of view. Seems like, after a while, you'd find it a waste of time. unless, of course, it's just another way to toot your own horns and demonstrate your typing skills....

Each side is guilty of this - in the 90s a substantial contingent of the right was convinced that Gov. Bill Clinton ran coke out of Mena. It's almost as if you have two options:

1. I disagree with my opponent's position on taxation, and therefore I shall oppose it.

2. I disagree with my opponent's position on taxation, and therefore I believe he has sex with goats.

Well, I'm pretty worthless at pissing matches. I leave those to the ones with the equipment to piss high and far. I always dissolve into puddles, myself. As for my typing skills, well Wolf keeps my ego pretty in line about those. My reasoning? I bet UT has a pithy comment about THAT!

Nah, to tell the truth, the debates around here are pretty clever for the most part, and keep me amused. They also keep me off the streets for which my neighbors are deeply grateful. ;)

While in that position, lest we forget. :blush:

As for Mena, Arkansas, well, that Clinton pair are famed for incontinently moneygrubbing 24-7-366 on leap years and for doing the wrong thing whenever possible at any time. Such evidence as there is in the matter suggests the smoke has a fire under it, rather than that there's nothing there.

Actually, if ZippyT ever makes mention of your ability to type, THEN you have truly been schooled.

As long as they separate church and state, I guess. Well except for Waco, I guess.

It looks like we're in trouble, then. :eek:
