Talk about Skewed speech. Come on herb, give me a break. You have to be kidding me. I can't fathom you guys in this election choosing your reasons and issues you're supporting Kerry on. It truely makes me sick to my stomach, and it makes me sad. I really cannot fathom it, and it's just a totally different plane for me I guess. I'll leave it at that because yes, you guys are making my blood boil, and YOUR JUST NOT WORTH IT. All I can do at this point just like everyone else, is vote.

sorry to hear you say we are not worth it. we are Americans who have the same rights as the people who disagree with our beliefs as we disagree with yours.
regardless i still think you are worth it. have a nice weekend Jack

This one is done, I can't even get the educated members to stay on topic, let alone the IDIOTS who only post in an attempt to stir the pot.

Herb,

I agree with you on the post. I can't say anything at this point other than on behalf of the site, we apologize. We've posted the rules for all to follow, and we didn't follow them ourselves. I promise you that it will never happen again, and your opinions are definitely worth it, regardless of how I or anyone else feels personally. This site is an open discussion where all opinions count as long as we all stay within the rules. I know that politics are extremely sensitve, as well as religion. You, myself, Bill and others are very passionate about how we feel. Both Lary and I faild in keeping within the rules. Again, for that, we apolgize. I would hope that we could continue or discussions based on the issues and opinions, facts and current events without any more personal attacks.

LOL. It probably won't. They'll probably be in court for at least two weeks.

I'll be glad when its all over. The problem is it will never be over. The election will be so close that who ever looses will sue the other side and cry fowl. They (the loosers) will then call on some minority group to claim they we disinfranchized and we owe them $$$$$$$. They will sue us and win of course .............. the beat goes on.

My head hurts just thinking about it.

Yep Democracy has always been kind of messy and sloppy. You don't get that with your better dictatorships.... unless you don't agree with the dictator and them things can get real messy.

Herb I used the wrong word when I said idiots, I should have said "trolls". I was referring to those people who post only to try and incite a reaction by saying something entirely off the wall.

You have seen them, no actual thought of any kind just a blatant statement intended to shock and cause trouble.

Which side of the fence any of you are on means nothing to me one way or the other, and never has. My apologies if I offended anyone
