Excuse me but Mr. Ryan could it possibly be the way that you have your font and styles set on your computer. Because rbd3's post is comes across clear on my computer and I am able to follow right along without any confusion. And he has posted no different than anyone else

Actually, rdb3 isn't formatting correctly. rdb, you can't have just one italics tag for multiple paragraphs. The italics won't carry past the 1st paragraph in some browsers (Opera for instance). This is what your reply #30 looks like to me:

I am very conservative and support any amnesty bills. America is a nation of immigrants who deserve a chance just as our forefathers did.

If Bush passes an amnesty bill future generations will be blessed with conservative leadership. It's a smart thing to do, plain and simple.

Quick! Don your best asbestos suit!

You're gonna need it...

Thus, it looks like the words in the second quoted paragraph are actually your words. You need to put an italics tag at the beginning of each paragraph and an end-italics tag at the end of each paragraph if you want to avoid confusion.

Oh, so the HTML is parsed differently in Opera. Didn't know that.

I see your point.

However, if you read that entire post, the first two sentences don't logically flow towards the last two. It would make it appear as if I'm talking to myself, right?

Anyway, I see your point. Thanx for the tip.

What I see in rdb3's post #30 is that the first 2 paragraphs are italicized.
