Bully for you! To whom do you "think" you ascribe it?

Really? How did he do that... ...aside from winning lots of golf
tournaments. Got a quote? Anything?

Nah. It was all because of Frostback. :-)

There ya go! The resort to personal insult, an admission that you were
in fact lying, and cannot substantiate the lie because it is, in fact,
a lie.

I don't watch the golf channel. I don't think it's that tough a shot,
and I reserve the right to think for myself. You want to let the media
tell you what to think...well that's none of my concern.

Another personal insult...you clearly didn't understand what I was
saying...not much I can do about that. Lots of overeducated stupid
people out there.

So what? If you don't know the issue in question, you shouldn't
comment on it. You could have 200 degrees, it would still beg the
question.

More evidence you don't know what you are talking about. Eddie Taylor
and Rock and Roll. Has nothing to do with the 1920's. It's the theory
I accept. Doesn't mean anyone else has to accept it, but it is a
legitimate theory with good substance to it...despite the fact you are
totally unaware of it. One wonders why you would comment on it given
you don't know anything about it...if they didn't know you!

Nonsense. My first post to this thread was the 3rd posted. Your post
#163 was an attack on me. I didn't even read it till just now. You
really didn't like my post 213, but I was relating an honest belief I
have about racist liberals. I had earlier commented that you generally
offer nothing of substance, just criticism. Again, either that is
legit or not. Anyone can read through the archive and see for
themselves.

What's a downward move? I moved because I wanted to move, to suit the
life I want. If it is something you would choose not to do, then that
gives me more evidence that I have made a good choice. In any event,
it's irrelevant.
