The FL GOP machine picked and groomed the wrong candidate.

My posts, including #461, tells why.

Of course, you social liberals are happy that a social liberal won.

[Sun]

Well heck, Peachy, well then, why did you send me a ping saying: "Don't ping me."

[Sun]

All of your posts say that anyone who disagrees with you have a third grade mentality. Silly, silly girl.

You REALLY don't mind looking like an idiot do you? ROFL

all right ADJECTIVE: In proper or satisfactory operational or working order: checked to see if the tires were all right. Acceptable; agreeable: Delaying the repair is all right by me. all-right (ôlrt) KEY Informal Satisfactory; good: an all-right fellow; an all-right movie. Correct: Your answers are all right. Average; mediocre: The performance was just all right, not remarkable. Uninjured; safe: The passengers were shaken up but are all right. Fairly healthy; well: I am feeling all right again. ADVERB: In a satisfactory way; adequately: I held up all right under pressure. Very well; yes. Used as a reply to a question or to introduce a declaration: All right, I'll go. Without a doubt: It's cold, all right.

Usage Note: Despite the appearance of the form alright in works of such well-known writers as Langston Hughes and James Joyce, the single word spelling has never been accepted as standard. This is peculiar, since similar fusions such as already and altogether have never raised any objections. The difference may lie in the fact that already and altogether became single words back in the Middle Ages, whereas alright has only been around for a little more than a century and was called out by language critics as a misspelling. Consequently, one who uses alright, especially in formal writing, runs the risk that readers may view it as an error or as the willful breaking of convention.

Most, if not all, English teachers would frown upon the use of 'alright'.

That is correct, it is like clockwork. First, it is "you are an idiot or stupid". Then it is "you are a liar". Then it is "you are on drugs or drinking". Then it is "you must live in a trailor".

"Yes, that particular person needs all the help she can get. Can never stand on her own two feet, always calling for back-up. It is one thing for silly women to show up and defend her but when grown men feel like they need to cower to her....it is just embarrassing...
Boy, people really feel the need to defend Crist around here. One would think there would be no need to defend him since, as they put, Florida loves him and he will be the next governor. However, I think many of them are worried about the Dem. winning. I wonder why that is?"

The social liberalbots sure ARE nervous about Charlie Crist.

Guess it's because we're pushing their buttons, which makes me very happy, but you would think they would get some new material.

I love pushing social liberalbots' buttons.

Well now I KNOW you aren't in college.

This word is spelled that way ALL the time in business, hon, but go right back to sucking on the bottle of ignorance.

[Sun]

Catch her post 1244. She must be a brain surgeon NOT. lol

[Sun]

Why are you spending such a long time on a stinkin' word. Have you no life, woman?

[yellowdoghunter]

You will have to excuse me if I do not spell it that way in my business dealings. It may be used at times but I would rather not take that chance, it reflects badly on the writer. Best to stick with the accepted use of "all right".

It is all they have.

Main Entry: al·right
Pronunciation: (")ol-'rIt, 'ol-"
Function: adverb or adjective
: ALL RIGHT
usage The one-word spelling alright appeared some 75 years after all right itself had reappeared from a 400-year-long absence. Since the early 20th century some critics have insisted alright is wrong, but it has its defenders and its users. It is less frequent than all right but remains in common use especially in journalistic and business publications. It is quite common in fictional dialogue, and is used occasionally in other writing.

I guess you missed the part from Merriam Dictionary that says the word is commonly used in business.

[Peach]

Why are you spending so much time on one word? Have you no life?

[Sun]

I'm NOT spending my life on one word, YOU are.

[Peach]

My life? It's been about 10 minutes. But hey - don't let the facts get in the way of your lies. You haven't so far.

Getting back to topic...........

TALLAHASSEE - Republican gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist told a radio talk-show host on Friday that civil unions between gays are "fine."

Crist, the front-runner for the Republican nomination, added that he has not decided whether Florida should lift its long-standing ban on allowing gays to adopt children. He hasn't yet "reached a conclusion," he told Miami radio talk-show host Jim DeFede.

"Haven't taken a position yet," Crist told DeFede.
"Not thought about it one way or the other?" DeFede asked.
"Not extensively," Crist replied. "I haven't reached a conclusion, is what I said."

Later on Friday, when asked to clarify his position, Crist backed away from his radio comments.

Charlie is nothing but a flip-flopping PHONY!

If it weren't so sad, it would be funny.

I was just on another thread and saw several spelling errors, should I alert you so you can go correct them and let them know how stupid they are? I have a feeling your spelling will be watched a little more closely by quite a few people.

You're perfectly capable of letting everyone know your IQ all by yourself. You know - with those posts that black kids were better off before we let them drink from water fountains with the whites and scary black cars driving by your home.
