Very nice post. Neat. Well punctuated. Precise language. I guess you've said all there is to say on the topic. Wish I'd said that!

No, correct on all counts. Now stop trying to distort what I said.

And the GOP certainly fits a LOT of clowns in their tent.

But not nearly as many as the Dimmycraps.

I think maybe we should start debates with a rendition of "Send in the Clowns."

No, if oyu'll go back and read the post on which you were commenting, you'll find that I did not write what you claimed I did. Then you insist that what I didn't write is wrong. Is anyone home where you are?
