"...If RooRooBird had come on Free Republic to report that she saw Mr. Gore treating other people rudely..."

I hope you won't take it personally if I disagree. I distinctly recall her saying that Gore stared at her husband first. I pointed this out to you in my previous post. Perhaps you overlooked it. That's ok. Afterall, we're all just human, right?

And I realize that you called her behavior boorish, but don't you see that using a characterization like "boorish" hurts people's feelings? You could have communicated your point without applying the hurtful adjective, no?

There's still time to repair the damage you've done and apologize to her. I think you would feel much better, and I know RooRooBird would feel better also. How can you expect others to follow your advice if you don't lead the way by setting the proper example? Go ahead, do it. I fully support you in your personal growth.

Remember, mason123, another precious human being's self-esteem is at stake here. It takes so little time to say the simple words, "I'm sorry" -- and you always feel so much better when you are big enough to reach out to another human being with a goodwill gesture like that. Do it. It will make you a better person.

Actually, Bonaparte, if my feelings were hurt, that lasted about one millionth of a nanosecond. I'm having too much fun on this thread!!!! (Freeers are so much fun!)

Posters like Mason123 (a conservative---NOT!) are at best irritating for a moment--they're not worth any expended energy, especially, if that takes away from a ROTFLOLing time at the expense of a LOSER like Al Gore. Take care..
