Post; It's impossible to separate the man and the office ...

Just to clear the record ... I honor Senior Chief's opinion, even though I don't completely agree with it. When a President hides BEHIND his office ... and ... 'dishonors' the office, there are times when it is almost impossible to separate the man and the office. That is the situation I see where GW is concerned. I realize that there are those who don't agree with me ... and ... they ALSO have a right to their opinion.

I defy anyone to find anywhere on this forum where I have ever said that another member didn't have a right to his/her opinion (no matter how much ridicule I heaped on their comments) ... I have a ALSO not seen anywhere that Senior Chief has done it either. His opinion was that you shouldn't badmouth the Office of President ... he never even implied that you DIDN'T have a right to do so however.

If that is what you believed, then maybe we ALL need to go back and re-read his posts ... cause I sure didn't see where he did.

Expect I'm not PC.







That was an easy target. Lost anyone tragically in your family recently?

I have found a very good reason never to visit Kentucky!

If I find I have to drive east and see that the shortest route is through part of the state I'll be diverting my route as well as keeping my money out of that state.

Don't smear the entire state with a broad brush because of these jackasses. There are many GOOD Kentuckians who are embarrased that these hypocritical jackasses have ANYTHING to do with their state, and would just as soon they leave the state and never return.

It's not the people of the state I'm avoiding, I'm avoiding the assinine laws that have been enacted in the state.

Laws are for the benefit of all, even hate-filled jackasses. A Price of Democracy.

That is debatable.....

I'm sure that is what our founding fathers envisioned...But sadly that is not becoming so... Especially with regards to the internet and the current laws being passed....

However this is a good example of how the right to protest works....Since there are protestors protesting the protestors....

Name calling is not allowed on this board. I expect that you will be getting a visit from the mods about that one.

BTW, I'm not a hate-filled jackass.
