During times of crisis our feelings of worthlessness come closer to the surface making us irrationally mean unless it gets personal and then it's any port in a storm.

I'm kind of surprised that so many people took this statement at face value. I thought it would be obvious I was being sarcastic. :confused: Just so you know: the above comment was sarcasm.

It's a temporary reprieve. You will be returned to your normal broadcasting schedule, following a few words from our sponsors. ;)

Nope, that looks like politician type duck and cover, except, in your case, it's because you have a moderator on your sorry ass. I saw nothing sarcastic about your remarks. You are saying it was sarcasm, because you are SO busted, and you know you're in the mods radar. :p

I've seen some hedging by the rabid folks that have their side running the Country.

Many of them have been voicing displeasure in the way their side is handling things.

It may just be a smoke screen, maybe not, only time will tell until next November whether they continue to tow the Party line or actually vote for a change.

I also have some of the comments by the right to be shocking as of late.

At least for the most part the children of OT don't venture into P&N although some adults act like children sometimes.

well @#$%@ all you @#%@#%@# and @#%@#%@^@##@#%$^@$@^#%$@%^@#%@%@#

sorry i had to. politics is an emotionally charged issue, and it's impossible to keep from bringing the worst out in people. but us veterans of the bickering eventually learn that screaming and crying and name calling get you nowhere fast.

I think "liberal or freeper or neocon" are rather mild phrases, compared to the other garbage spouted by some members here. I'd rather see the constant purveyors of "a$$hole", "stfu sh1thead," and "fvck you" handed their walking papers before those than engage in generic political references.

Check the 3rd post here

No point in worrying about dusting the lampshade when you have 150lbs of sh1t in the middle of the floor.
