Starkers! (Where's me mate when I need him?)  Remind me...please..... to get me spec's adjusted!

WebGizmos: How right you are! It's amazing how much I find myself agreeing with you in this and several recent posts.

Hey WOM ! Nice ta see ya here!

Choosey...you bet! Especially when a) No one cares what we think and It makes us look good!

LOL.....what funny creatures we are!  Thanx for helping keeping the laugh going. Otherwise we'll croak from terminal seriousness.

I always thought Tina Fey was very attractive ... maybe a bit skinny for some though; especially those that are partial to zoftig women.

To be frank, I wouldn't wanna handle that woman... would be too ashamed to got to confession afterwards.

Starkers: You haven't seen RoseNell....so me hardy, ya dinna ken! She seems very nice to me.

You'd better get to confession and don't let the Missus know...she'll skin ya...

<------You'll need it!

More often than not it makes people vent out of the 'wrong' orifice ....

cute clip Bebi.....reminded me of the Dr Who Angel statues episode....blink...and they're closer.....lol

Ah ha, but I have seen RoseNell, and yes, she is a very lovely lady. We have met and spoken many a time in the screenshot gallery and I consider her a friend... and as far as I'm concerned, RoseNell has more poise, grace, dignity and integrity in her little finger than Sarah Palin has in her whole body.

..................................... RoseNell for VP....Oh Heck, RoseNell for President ...........................

Yup, some people take politics and Party preferences far too seriously, and yes, it is sad to see people arguing, fighting and name calling over it... but then, maybe there wouldn't be so much community anger if the politicians did the right thing and not brtray the voters with broken promises, ill conceived policies and giving themselves fat pay rises while the majority of voters are doing it real tough.

I don't like politicians any more than the next person, and I will take tongue in cheek pot shots at them at every opportunity, but one thing I will never do is become angered or aggressive over somebody elses political views, the resulting hostility and unpleasantness is/would never be worth it.

Starkers, me m8 as usual has hit the nail on the head!

HG, well said....as I maintain "Shouts are heard, whispers listened to."

Civility is the key to Eclectic Discourse.....to contribute to 2 threads at once! Ahhhhh....Efficient Discourse!

No, it is based on job for job.  They are not comparing clerks to managers.

Point to where he is. If what you say is true, links should be easy to find.  And indeed, you are just proving my point about the first 150 comments.

There is a difference between defending if even to the death, your opinion ,and getting aggressive if others opinions vary from yours. Understanding that other people may have different opinions etc does not make one weak or conceeding.

Fight to defend your beliefs, opinions, not to make others believe what you want them to. I read nothing in the post that said he willingly offers up his beliefs to the loudest yeller. Simply that he will not yell back or get angered for people having views different from his own.

Typically those who yell the loudest, are the least believing in their own rhetoric.

Is actually the attacking of each other that ruins what could be otherwise real elections/debates on the matters at hand. So caught up in a blaze of slander and smear campaigning, the real issues are muttled in the murk of cameras and lies.

I will not get in to the debate as it were but I will defend every ones rights to post freely and openly their opinions as long as they are civil.

The saddest part is.. Elections in the media are no more about whos the best candidate for the job. It's all about trashing the other guy.

Voting due to media sensationalism and politicians who lie, has over the years reduced to voting for who ever will screw up the country the least, *as the truth and issues have been lost to the wind*, or if you will, merely choosing the lesser of 2 evils.

Did you make that up?

Typically those who yell the loudest are the ones that have been suppressed the longest.
