but sometimes the best response is no response.
You're right...I personally need to get better at that.
Since this is a NASCAR thread...what the hell is up with your boy Busch this year? 7 freakin wins??? He's having the kind of season people dream of. I wonder if he's going to be able to keep this going into the chase? He is reminding me of Gordon's dominance last year, and we all know that Gordan couldn't take it to the end.
Not on this site I am not, no. Unless it was one on one...maybe via PM or something. I learned my lesson with the Kerry / Bush election, and the slew of Bush hating threads thereafter. I'm all for discussing with people that are willing to listen.
ps- isn't that the point of a sig? To let it speak for you without discussion?
It just seems a little hypocritical to have a sig like that on one hand and call people out for not listening or being open minded on the other.

It was a pointless comment from 70Chip in the first place. But that's what he does. 70Chip doesn't miss a chance to crack on the left (he's not the only one to do that, for either side). But he certainly does it more than most.
It can be annoying sure, but sometimes the best response is no response.
What is this about? I do like to have my fun but I make serious points also. You make it seem like I add nothing which is very hurtful to me.

I can't imagine you're really hurt. But no, I certainly don't mean to say you contribute nothing. Far from it. You contribute plenty of worthwhile information. At the same time though, you do tend to throw in those comments that seem to have no place in the discussion. The shame of course is that you're one of the few who can speak intelligently on history and politics, and it's unfortunate when you choose not to

All work and no play = Al Gore. I guess my humor simply isn't up to snuff. The thing I think you find objectionable is my satirical riff on the Obama rumors. I was two months ahead of Remnick at the New Yorker. I saw this coming. David Remnick is a brilliant writer/editor and a Liberal I respect, but I knew they themselves would end up pushing the rumors, so they could maintain the storyline about the right pushing the rumors. I'm now claiming all the rumors I spread were satire.
I'm also changing my avatar since camp is starting today. I think CP. but I'm not sure. I like Zorn. Everyone I know has always liked Zorn since football card days. But I will always say that Williams got the shaft.
