Since there’s nothing they can do about it, they decided not to press the point.

Sorry, even as lame as the current Congress is they wouldn't have let something this juicy slide by.

Actually, I’ve been checking some of FOX stuff out lately, having heard from others that FOX seems to be making a slight shift back toward the center-right. I have noticed a couple of things .. and it makes me wonder if they got the hint when so many of us stopped watching them.

Boy .. those ratings can bite you in the butt.

Correct, but the military also needed the State Department to get approval from Libya to go there

I do not remember us getting approval from Hitler to Bomb his sorry ass. I do remember Obama refusing to save Americans in Benghazi! All the military needed was Obama to say is,"use all means necessary to save our countrymen and do it now!"

I’ve been talking about CBA for 4 years to no avail.

[blueunicorn6]

Yes. I remember that you wrote about it immediately. I looked it up back then because of your posting.

I do think that it is very important. It is critical to understand it.

The first rule of rhetoric is,

Remember Your Audience.

Can your audience understand what you’re writing? Are they capable of comprehending your message at the level you’ve written it? If they can’t, then you might as well be writing in German for an American audience. It’s not your fault, but they can’t understand what you’re trying to say.

Add that to most people’s short attention span and you see that you have a tough job writing about CBA.

I have read one of your books. I know that you have the ability to write in a way that interests people. You just have to write about CBA in a manner that will cause people to want to read it and that they’ll be able to understand.

I’m no guru. I just think that this is an important subject and I’m trying to be encouraging.

[Travis McGee]

I can’t make it any more clear than I have, without typing “Goo-goo” and “Ga-ga.”

[blueunicorn6]

OK.
