Well, then - let me explain it to you. This is one of those "news" items that does not demand immediate resolution. You can afford to set this on the back burner and let it ripen in the fullness of time.
A typical news addict/junkie (no names, but his initials are sinkspur) will jump into a thread like this spewing classless stuff like 'the Unsers are drunks' or "Something tells me these boys never venture out without a little liquid fortification under their belts."
These typical news junkies don't know the Unsers - they know OF the Unsers, so why are they making comments like these?
Because they don't like the Unsers. So, preface your classless remarks about the Unsers with something like "I've hated the Unsers' guts for like FOREVER, so something tells me these boys never venture out without a little liquid fortification under their belts."
As I said, there's a difference between these types of "news" threads, and the actionable ones, like the current Media/Hezbollah stuff, or the old Dan Rather/phony documents, or the impeachment war stuff.
Learning to recognize the difference can change you from a news junkie (who gets ceaselessly drunk on the never-ending flow of "news" from the Fountain of Truth) to a news observer, who is able to exercise some discernment when it comes to jumpin' in the waller.
Sinkie's comments about the Unsers were uncalled for. If you go back and review them, you'll notice the viciousness of an anonymous keyboard commando going after a public figure's character, knowing that he won't be called to account for it*.
Well, I called him to account for it.
*Disclaimer - I've said really mean things on FR about both Clintons in the past, though I don't KNOW them (of course they DID come after us, so we sort of got called to account) . Also, I don't have much of an idea who the Unsers are in life, other than the obvious stuff. Golf's my game - no other sport will do.
And furthermore, I know I didn't "ping" sinkspur to this post, and I don't care.
Except she's actually crazier...
Jesus, please let her force her way onto a crime scene. All the bluster and bravado would be tased out of her...
