1. A part of me just wants to do the cocky Han Solo-esque "I know" bit...
but a part of me wants to say something like, "How DARE you bring that kind of divisive crap in here!" :evilgrin:

2. We aren't the average DUer
We have more varied interests, a better credit rating and larger breasts.

15. I have no worries...
One of the lovely side effects of pregnancy is huge knockers... the other is that her umm... desires... will go to 11. :evilgrin:

3. I suspect most of the posters in GD and GDP are nice too.
Many of them just feel very passionate about their view of the world and choice of candidate right now. Passion is good in the long run, and I consider it a good quality for the most part.

I went through that phase myself at one time. And I found that my time was better spent doing the footwork for the Democratic Party, rather than arguing with a few anonymous people on a message board.

Really.

10. Ummm, I want to get back to this passion thingy
and are you selling any on eBay or something? And please, if there is a god in heaven, none of the clown business that RetroLounge was pushing earlier. That was scary

HOWDY :hi:

17. I'm not sure I understand your question?
I'm not trying to sell anything, either here or on eBay. :shrug:

And I had nothing to do with the clown thing you mentioned, although I saw it as just good natured fun.

The passion thing, well, ... I just don't see that as a completely bad thing among liberals. I have it too, but choose not to fight about it. I figure we are all on the same side in the end. During the Primaries, the side of passion just depends on whose ox is being gored.

HOWDY to you too! :hi:

24. Oh, just funnin' ya, Lil Missy
The clown thing was a hoot (probably why it's etched indelibly into my little brain) :banghead:.

Just trying to get some of that passion you were talking about. Hey, I'm lounging 'cause I'm too lazy to hang with all exhuberance and figured if you could point me to some on eBay I wouldn't have to muster it up myself. Pitfalls of laziness, I suppose :)

16. While that is an interesting point...

I keed, I keed.

I meant most of 'em.

12. Hey, UndertheOcean
Is that handle a Donovan tribute? Do you believe in Atlantis? Why do you hate poets, farmers and scientists?

23. I AM NOT MCCAIN. Oh sorry. GET OFF THE LAWN. Gee
Can't get this cranky old geezer thing under control. :o

He pre-dates me by a smidge, but Donovan was a singer in the 60s/70s (back when we had these shiny round things made of vinyl) who started off as the "British Bob Dylan" and morphed into a sort of psychodelic, flower power lyricist. He's got a number of hits but "Atlantis" was probably one his top releases.

26. I don't believe in rallies and things like that
I embrace the people, and they in turn embrace me. It's word of mouth. Or something like that.

Thanks for your support!
