Our country has a load of thesauruses and dictionaries, so IMO, there are plenty of othey ways to slam home a point of view.

If it isn't the criticism of obama....honestly....then I stand corrected.

And, to a degree, I understand your objection to a writing style as well. An objection, I might add, you are perfectly free to voice.

But I think you could have voiced that objection without this:

"I have no idea why, AS7, you present these articles by Karl Schwartz,"


The fact of it is, that just as you are free to voice your opinion of a particular writer, and not read what you find lacking in eloquence if it bothers you so much, AB is just as free to post whatever he chooses to post as long as he's not in violation of any of the TOS.

I just think you could've made your point without taking a swat at another poster, that's all.

Agree there az. It was a cheap shot, but as you can probably tell, I have a short fuse when it comes to such unabashedly biased rhetoric that has to be "bleeped". And AS7, may I offer my apology? Getting swept up in this author's blatant slant, slamming other opinions while attempting to slander those offering the opinions in words equivalent to "they got cooties," I tend to grind my teeth, chew wallboard and take a blood pressure pill.

thank you.. no offense taken ... I am looking for the truth, that is it... no secret agenda, nor do I wish to offend anyone.

I have cracked 2 crowns from grinding my teeth and anger from a couple of posts so I do understand

Thank you Vortex, for taking what I said in the spirit it was intended.....a gentle reminder and not a vicious personal attack which isn't my style anyway.
