There really is nothing interesting to read in your sarcastic comments to me. But the article spells out everything clearly. Are you a hater? Do you have sense enough to read the article for all the information you need?
If you don’t like what I post, don’t click on it. Grow up in 2016.

Great answer, BlackFemaleArmyCaptain. And FWIW . . raybbr has wasted a lot of MY time having to read through his/her whining about the manner in which you posted. Very childish.

For someone who's been posting here for four years, you seem to have missed out on the customs and courtesies normally expected in this forum.

FreeRepublic operates under the protections of "Fair Use" of copyrighted material. The excerpt function is there only for use in posting material from adversarial sources or those so motivated by profit that they have specifically requested of the management that we not post more than excerpt.

You can educate yourself on this matter by reading Jim Robinson's comments at this link.

Many of the sources you've been excerpting in this latest campaign are not on the "Excerpt Only" list. There is nothing preventing you from doing a favor for all of your fellow FReepers who might wish to read the material without going offsite by simply posting the whole thing - or at least the relevant parts of it.

You seem to have a penchant for telling others to "grow up."

Perhaps you could learn some site etiquette before you try passing judgement on other folks maturity.

Oh, boy! There was nothing sarcastic about my comments. They were honest questions. That you take such offense tells me I’m pretty close to on the mark. Get over yourself.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some of these bandwidth nannies here are simply supporters of some of the kiddie candidates, getting angry that their candidates couldn’t get media coverage if they shot up a movie theater, whereas Trump makes national headlines if he does a lane change without signaling.

Don’t take their bait!
