Thank you devolve, I am very touched!
I do not now, nor have I ever, done drugs.
And if you happen to look at my profile page again, please note that it says I left the Libertarian Party.
Also the reason this kerflufle bothers me as much as it does is because normally I have tremendous respect for potlach.
If he really were an idiot, or someone I didn’t like, it wouldn’t hurt for him to practically call me a liar to my face. I’d just ignore him.
BTW, thanks for mentioning that you were able to get your passport without providing an “acceptable” birth certificate.
