Lebell,
No that post was just in response to the article posting I did above it.
I am very outraged that ANY politician calls the NEA a "terroristic group" and thinks it's funny. I'm sorry but I find no humor in a cabinet member calling a legitimate group terroristic, in this day and age.
If a Dem. during Clinton, (say Robert Reich) had called the NRA a group of Nazi-istic thugs, do you not think there would have been an outcry for his job within hours?
I just truly get upset over this double standard. The GOP during Clinton could call him anything, and today, Bush's people can say and do whatever they damn well want but someone says something about them, well, then that person is humiliated, thier name savaged and they get treated as if they are unpatriotic treasonists out to destroy the country.
To me, my dad always said if you have to resort to name calling you lose the debate. But today, you almost have to name call because noone debates issues anymore civilly. Noone seems to respect that someone has a different view.
We are all so wrapped up in taking sides that the true issues are being forgotten and when someone does want to talk issues they are treated like imbiciles that have no idea what they are talking about. It's both GOP and the DEMs that are guilty. and it has to stop.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
