So what party do you represent?

Also, I fail to see how just because a party doesn't make 'blatantly racist/homophobic remarks' (although that isn't true, but if it were) would make it somehow superior.

I've often thought that the sole difference between the south and other parts of the country in terms of blatant remarks is that in the south, you know who doesn't like you up front. Elsewhere, you find out when you wake up with a knife in your back.

Thank you for your response, Bob. I appreciate the time you took to post your opinion.

Can you point out to me where I said my party was superior? I have reread what I wrote and I do not see that I said that at all. I see where you may have inferred it, but I did not say it.

Plus, are you assuming my party choice? I did not state that either so I am unsure of your meaning there as well.

In the future, it might behoove you to consider exactly what is written before you make statements like "patently false" which seems to imply that I'm lying intentionally.

Thanks.

Arwen, if you're going to make patronzing replies in an attempt to have an actual conversation, try it with someone else.

I simply pointed out that your statement, which I quoted verbatim, was demonstrably false. Nowhere did I claim you were a liar. Perhaps you INFERRED that? It would appear so. That being the case, perhaps you'd like to reconsider chastising others who make reasonable inferences such as 'my party is superior because it doesn't make homophobic or racist remarks'.

Nowhere did I make any statement, real or implied, about your party affiliation. Again, an incorrect inference on your part.

In the future, it might behoove you to consider exactly what is written before you make statements like "I see where you may have inferred it, but I did not say it." In addition, it might further behoove you to actually address what was written, rather than attempting a weak rhetorical diversion from the substance of the comments made.

Thanks.

I have always been a democrat. I am just like Apocalipstic in that I lean to far far far left. No war.
