What is this a tag team?
Look, I'm not running this forum. I carry no weight here. I'm a participant just like you. Exercise your right to speak your mind, put your ideas out there, if not to me, then certainly to the thousands of other participants- who very well may agree with you and defend you when you feel offended or insulted. And if you have a problem doing so because you fear I might respond in a tactless, insulting, or offensive way; that could be a problem and one that only you can change.
And the purpose of your evaluation? Are you looking for an apology? Looking to be the catalyst for my conversion? Or just thought you'd jump on the bandwagon and let me know how you feel- easier to 'confront' in a mob?
Do you want to debate/argue, or would you prefer to put your anonymous thinking out and have no one (me) respond, unless it's favorable?
I kinda suspect the latter, but identify your personal boundaries for interaction and I'll try my best not to offend or insult you- that is, when I can distinquish you from all the other anons. Perhaps you could put a trailer on your messages: The anon who fears being offended or insulted by the tactless Deborah.
And if you'll waste just another minute of your time, I'd be curious to know- if you hold me in such disregard, why in the world would anything I have to say matter? I'm trying to fathom why an anonymous poster with no identity is so concerned about being offended or insulted by someone else comments? Isn't that one of the benefits of being anon? Can you help me out?
Speak, argue, debate.. anything other than whine. You insult yourself.

Ok, let me help you understand. I am perfectly capable of speaking, arguing, and debating. I was responding to you saying, "Would any of you care to share the things Reagan did for you etc..." My point was that I think it would be a waste of time to debate my ideas with you. I can't make you understand what being tactless, insulting, or offensive is. I'm sure you know what it is like to talk to someone who thinks they are right about everything. I am not scared of you. I am not looking for an apology or in anyway trying to be a catalyst for your conversion. I think you are annoying and I would much rather debate with someone like the patriot. He could be an example to you, Someone who says what's on their mind without being a jerk.

"Oh Brother.
You accuse me of thinking only my opinions have relevance, as if ever damned one of you don't feel exactly the same way or you wouldn't have bothered responding. You didn't read that into other's comments Patriot? Why? Who did I make 'wrong'? I would bet you money that not one person in this thread feels 'wrong' as a result of my comments.
I imagine that all of you dislike what I posted but rather than praise Reagan, you attacked me for having a different opinion and not being nice or PC by your definition. And I have "arrested development"?
Would any of you care to share the wonderful things Reagan did for you, your families, the country; and stop evaluating me?

First of all let me respond by saying PC is bullshit I don't buy into it and as far as you "making" people feel wrong Nope, I don't think you do that at all you don't have the power to do that, not with me anyway. You are crass , rude and post as if anyone who is not as far left leaning as you are wrong which is fine. We obviuosly don't agree on most issues but I respect your opinoin even if I don't agree with it, I do not patronize you or condescend to you as you do with most you disagree with. God can you ever disagree with anyone and not be pissy???? I wonder, but have a great day Deborah[ This Message was edited by: thepatriot on 2004-06-10 06:18 ]

What did Reagan do?with the help of Gorbie, took down the wall and during most his second term this country was probably more economically prosperous than any other time in America. He was not perfect there were questions with Iran contra, there are always questions regardless of the administration in charge. But the thing that stands out the most in my mind is that he had so much respect for the office he held he would not even remove his coat in the oval office which is more than I can say for slick Willy. Like him or not he was better than Carter or Clinton by far. But then again tht is just my opinion.
