Usenet is self-policing which means anyone named "SELF" can
police Usenet including Timmmmmay his ownSELF and mySELF.
And Timmmmmmmay is right, your posts are rude. The only
quibble I have is that he calls your posts a "bit rude".
I disagree. I think your posts are extraordinarily rude.

Posting the way you do, (nonsensical gibberish), shows that
you have no respect for the readers of your posts. If you have
so little respect for the readers of your posts why in the hell
should they respect you ?

Timmmay gave you some good advice. My advice is to take it to
heart.

Um...if he were to declare you as being full of ****, then your opinion
of the folks whose opinions you value would be suspect...further, their
opinions would be suspect as they choose to not only associate with, but
opine to persons who acknowledge their own full-of-****ness, albeit via
proxy...therefore, it would seem that given the above you being full
of **** and all, the fact that you trust Tim's opinion based on the
afore-demonstrable suspect opinions of others, wouldn't mean ****
because Tim's opinion of your full-of-****ness might be full of ****...

That said, I don't need to know other folks' opinion(s) about Tim to
come right out and say that if he said you were full of ****, well,
****, I'd say that he knew his ****, too...oh, OK...G...

based on your writings

Timmy my man!

All I'm saying, Fred, is this place is one where what you write is
important. It is the only means anyone here has to judge your stance or
understand what you're saying. A typo here or there is not the problem with
your posts. Most of the time I have to read them several times before I can
even venture a guess at what you're trying to say. Slow down, read what you
wrote, adjust it so the points are clear, and THEN hit send.

If so then go after those who post their politics on ROFF without an
OT '


Posting politics without OT in the subject isn't that big of a deal, and,
IMHO just stating OT doesn't make it okay to post anything you want. Go back
through all ROFF's posts over the years, and you'll find precious little
regarding my politics. I've made enough forays into some of the political
threads so my politics aren't a secret, and that's about all. The people
here know I dress to the right - so what. I can't help it if all those
left-dressers are dead wrong. ;-)

Otherwise find something better to do than pull my chain
Work on your car?
Paint?
Pull your own chain?
Legthen your acronym list for ROFF


DAMN! I should have known you were writing in acronyms. Can you go back and
explain them to me?

or even masturbate.


Hmmmm . . . got a thing for masturbation today, have we?

My posts do make a modicum of sense to many in the English speaking
world


Shall we take a vote? ;-)

Now if you do NOT like my politics, Timmy , or you do not like me or
if you really want to pull my chain - - Don't waste my time


sigh Once again, this has nothing to do with your politics. If you want to
damn Dick Cheney to a life of boils and pestilence, go ahead (not that you
haven't done this on an almost daily basis), but please make sure I can
understand what you wrote. THEN I can tell you you're full of **** for
something other than your communication skills.

I do have better things to do than respond to your BS. so
Instead - put your head in the toilet bowl and flush.

But really behind all the words what I am saying loud and clear is

Nope. I'll be right here waiting for your next set of instructions.

Comprende hombre?

Well, I think you made yourself clear (?) to me, and have probably exposed
some deep nastiness you didn't intend to others here as well.

Wow. I'm going to have to meet this Tim guy one of these days. He sounds
like a great fella! ;-)

Thanks, Jeff. It may not all be true, but it was nice to read anyway. . .
and, it goes without saying ('tho that never stopped me before) that I've
never found you to be full of ****. Wrong-minded, yes, but not full of ****.

I do believe you Dave. I believe you hate the n-word the same way I do.
Which means you practice PC. That was my point.


Are you sure you are not confusing PC and non-bigot?

This is pretty hot stuff. I still get smoke coming out of my ears
now, some 40 years later, when ever I think about it. And yet a lot
of readers managed to weigh in and say what they think without resorting
to flames and insults. That part was gratifying.
I respect Dave LaCourse. I don't agree with much he has to say
politically. But I do respect him (redneck mf that he is).

Hmmm...to paraphrase Sol Wachtler, if a halfway decent prosecutor can
get an average grand jury to indict a ham sandwich, it would seem a

baloney...and as with most tubesteaks and bologna, one would be left
asking, "where's the beef...?"


that was my thinking.....sort of.

And lastly, there's the numerous potential dangers in it - for example,
if something particularly ugly had been found, but kept secret for
security reasons, can you imagine the backlash if the House attempted to
impeach and had their case totally destroyed? Or worse, suppose the
ranking/entitled members already know, yet allow something to move
forward?


Rick, you're overanalyzing here, I think.....still and all, there certainly
IS a track record for impeaching with a shaky, almost non-existent chance
for conviction. When all is said and done, though, any talk of impeachment 7
1/2 years into an 8 year term is political theater, and all concerned here
know it.

if there are Usenet rules of ANY type, number 1 might be:
Don't tell others what to do or not do. It's asking for trouble.

ahh, here's where the problem lies. You believe the above. Sadly, you are
mistaken. Many of your posts are nonsensical gibberish that either annoys,
insults or bores
those attempting to give you the respect required to read it. Sorry if that
statement cuts, but go back and call up your own posts and try to read them
cold.

But really behind all the words what I am saying loud and clear is ****

Talk of impeachment at any point in Bush's time in office thus far would
have been "political theater" (which is not the same thing as me
offering any opinion on Bush's Presidency beyond the evidence required
to impeach). But are you suggesting that most members of the House are
above political theater? I'd offer that if the Dems thought they had a
decent script, they'd have happily struck up the band and began singing
"Springtime for Hussein" (with all the Dem Reps doing the can-can,
forming a big spinning Scud launcher). Unfortunately for them, the
script they have would make "Showgirls Go To Ishtar" (A Bialystock/Bloom
Production, Directed by Roger De Brise) look like "To Kill A
Mockingbird."
