My kids spelling skills, no matter how much I work with them, are pitifull. It doesn't mean they're democrats, however.

LOL. Best of luck working with them. I homeschool, so I know what you mean. My efforts, however, regards my kids, center on the debate surrounding "the need for any education at all" (hope that doesn't mean they're dems). I always win...:-)

On the "vanity" thing... we might be onto something there. Granted, I've seen a few vanity threads that were intended to disrupt. They get zotted immediately, like the comment on this thread. But, here and there, they are usually cries for help. We should help them. On basic issues, we don't have to convince each other. The ones who need convincing shouldn't be summarily chased away.

As far as spelling and grammar, as far as posts here are concerned, the best way to make it better is through example, instead of berating. I agree completely. Thank you!

We should welcome them and see what they're about, before banning them.

You're welcome. FR has the potential to become a breeding ground for new conservative converts :-)

Pitifull=pitiful. My bad?
