Hey, way to raise the level of discourse.

It was a long post for such a short retort. Were you unable to read past the first line newbie?

"Level of discourse"

I have not heard such nonsense for about four years now. Some phrases are so Clintonian.

Stirrin up a hornets nest, throwin cowpies, starin down a bear, sure.......

But no level of discourse. What does it mean? Ratchet up the jabber? Cry in yer beer? It's too boring a phrase for Bubba. That's a Maddie phrase for sure.
