Hey Jim,
While I agree with your point of view in general, please, consider that
namecalling cheapens your points, and by proxy, the points of those who
agree with you. With so much substance of the clinton/gore/kerry camp
to disagree with, we really don't need to resort to petty namecalling.


Those are my names for the lot. It's better, I suppoed, than the
Blowjob King, Dumb**** Gore, Useless Kerry and the Bitch, eh what? :-)



Allow me to be more clear, since polite and/or subtle appears not to
work on you. When you do what you're doing, you make everyone who
agrees with you look bad. What you are doing, is the opposite of help.
Your rhetorical tactic is not effective. Make your valid points, sure,
but when you combine them with namecalling, it gives those who might be
neutral and interested in learning and changing, automatically ignore
your argument.



I've always said, "If you don't like what I'm writing...DON'T READ IT!"
It's simple really, I won't try to stifle your right to say what you
wish if you don't try to stifle mine. Fair enough? I don't mince
words. I say what I think and say what I mean.

Jim
