Russ:
I didn't defend it, I simply think if Red is a friend, and you want to keep your friend, that a PM might have been a little more astute and kind.
Red is very creative and in need of a good editor, but he's pretty funny. Also, DanC had something coming for his low wattage blunderbuss attack. (God help the employees who work under him.)
It's ok to snipe at complete strangers and treat them like sh*t, but you really shouldn't treat your friends that way. 😛
Oh, and, yes, the Republicans are always charming, bright, kind, helpful, cheerful, and never, never rude, or low. It's in the genes. 🙂 Come on, Russ, get a grip. Most of your little robots, like TagTeamJones, IFormattedMyLIfeandnowI'mEliteMerde, DanCan'tBeNormal, and others-some of whom are dearly departed-really revel in the lowest attacks. I notice that even Etech has replaced his bland prose with an occasional ad hominem retort. This attack dog mentality was started by the right wing, and is merely perpetuated because you guys haven't learned to stop being intensely cruel. Dare I mention your many attacks on Paulson? You reap what you sow.
