Your words are harsh and they upset me
..., but then I realized it's the only way you know how to talk...
..rather than argue the fine points..
..you know...
..civil discourse...
..Calling Dr.Dobson names makes you feel good/important.
Would that you ever knew as fine a man as James Dobson!
Dobson may be good in other roles — preacher, family-values activist. In general-election campaigns, he is sometimes a spoiler. I’ll take back the words “punk” and even “dog in the manger.” They were excessive in this case. You were right to point that out. Also excessive, however, was your claim that “it’s the only way” that I “know how to talk.” Not true at all. Most of my posts on FReep, even in which I disagree with someone, are pretty civil.
I’m sure that I’ve known several people at least as fine as Dr. Dobson.
