Although I consider this topic an interesting point of discussion . . . Bush comment was just a pertinent aside . . . I'm not sure there's anything clever about altering someone else's post. It's one thing to quote them and then entirely misrepresent what was said . . . common occurence here actually. But this . . .

It was obviously a joke. Lay off the opiates and booze.

I love word play as much as anyone else . . . I just don't believe in misrepresenting what someone else says . . . without first restating explicitly . . . what they actually said.

EDIT: I apologize for an inappropriate comment. Personal attacks are unnecessary to communicate a difference of opinion.

It's not like it was debate, it was just a sly comment from Moonie that someone used back on him. No harm no foul. You're overblowing it big time.

Although my personal censor prevents me from directly commenting on the lowlife that roam AT P&N . . . it does allow me to make a general observation that some of you people sux.

Seriously Bali it was a joke. I certainly didn't take what you said seriously and you shouldn't take what anyone else says serious when it is obvious they are joking. Having a rough day or something?:beer:
