Your remark about my belonging to the 80% crowd, refers to the article title and that title includes a so-called, "moron alert". See the connection now? Your insult was quite obvious. Now, if it was an oversight, on your part, okay. I'll accept an apology.

It is not obvious to me. I believe you make a common mistake of believing headline writers and article writers are the same people. That is not true here nor in the papers.

The article says 80% would give up some freedom for security and that is the 80% I put you in. If I even insult you, rest assured you will know it, and there will be no debate. All I did was place you in the majority, a position you took without any help from me.

This is FreeRepublic. The title of the article, as posted, is the real issue. After all, I can't read your mind, but I did catch your inference. Since you say, it wasn't a mistake, I'll take you at face value.

>>>The article says 80% would give up some freedom for security and that is the 80% I put you in. All I did was place you in the majority, a position you took without any help from me.

Thanks, I'm very proud to stand with such an overwhelming majority of American's, on most of the points in this specific issue. It's nice to be right, but it's better to be right and have your fellow citizens agree with you.

>>>If I even insult you, rest assured you will know it, and there will be no debate.

OMG, I can't wait to be insulted, with no strings attached. Come on, don't try and fool with me, or play silly games. I can read between the lines.
