September 4, 200917 yr Yeah, uh huh, that's why you followed with "I am continually amazed......shouldn't be at this point, but I am". I'm supposed to read that and know you just want clarification? Perhaps you should have been more clear as well then. :sssh: You can think whatever you like, I don't need to play any little game with you, I'm generally pretty direct and most on this board know that very well. Just because others do it doesn't mean I do. If clarification was all that you wanted you could have either left off the accusatory sentence at the end or you could have just simply said, can you clarify that statement. I tell you what...you continue to post in the way you do, and I'll continue to post in the way that I do. I'll be happy to keep asking questions when I don't understand, and if no answer is forthcoming, I'll take it that there's no assumptions on my part whatsoever. I asked a question. It was separate from my other statement. I love how you can cry assumptions when you're misunderstood, but make assumptions yourself, and put words in others' mouths, and it's OK. Typical. (
September 4, 200917 yr Fair enough and if it wasn't your intention I apologize. What steps would you propose for Obama to do something in that area? No need to apologize, I'm cool with it. Very good question, something along this line of thinking would be a good start.

(Do whatever you like, RM. Just don't cry foul when you end with an accusatory sentence and you're called for it. When you do something like that, it's obvious that that you're not asking for clarification in my book. It reeks of accusation and in some cases smugness to many.

I'll be sure to give it the same consideration you give my comments. :thumb:
September 4, 200917 yr Thanks for chastising me. I'll be sure to give it the same consideration you give my comments. :thumb::lol: If you want to take it that way, fine. If you look back a few posts (post 191 to be exact) you'll see that I told FKW that I could have worded it better, so I don't know what more you want from me.
September 4, 200917 yr I'd be curious to see how many people would be this upset if Bush had wanted to make the same address.
September 4, 200917 yr I'd be curious to see how many people would be this upset if Bush had wanted to make the same address. Large numbers just different groups.
September 4, 200917 yr ... Regardless of politics (and I realize to some that's not possible) the title "my pet goat" is funny.
September 4, 200917 yr I am a teacher and was handed this propoganda this morning. I asked for a transcript but told there wasn't one. I will not be showing this without being able to see a transcript or being able to preview it first. In fact, I don't show anything in my classroom without previewing it first. I was told to connect it to core content when showing it to my class. Well, I barely have enough time to cover what needs to be covered now, let alone take time to show this without knowing what is going to be said and trying to figure out how it "fits" into the curriculum. I have made the decision to continue with my plans I have already made and they don't include viewing this broadcast. Parents need to view this with their children if they want them to see it. I am not going to promote something that I have not had the opportunity to review first. Period.
September 4, 200917 yr :lol: :lol: Thanks for posting those RM. So do we think youth of America has never heard: Stay in School Work Hard Don't do drugs They'd probably pay more attention to the goat story...
