I voted.  Polling place was pretty empty.  I was given the option of a GOP, Democrat, Green, Socialist, or Libertarian ballot. The Libertarian ballot had no candidates for anything-- it just had the one local issue we were voting on: a property tax levy for the local school district.  I wonder if they had that pre-filled with "NO".

I voted for Mitt   :yawn:

Yeah, I'm sure their primaries have been riveting.  And I'd be surprised if there were members of either party in my district.

2. would be part of your observation.  Are you observing oodles of examples of the opposite happening?  If so, give me some of these examples.

What for?  If you want to think it's not true I could give a shit.

Then why post anything?  You are making a post without a point based on observations you don't wish to share.  That's very strange Yi.  Pointless posts provoked by mysterious and possibly imaginary observations is something I would expect from a crazy person.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I think it's possible for one to make a casual observation without wanting to get into detailed, contentious debate over it.  Let it go.

Because there are plenty of posters on this board who are happy to discuss issues in good faith.

To put it more succinctly, what is the point to all this?
I don't think there is a point.  It's more of a bit of a 49 page long conversation that meanders and oozes all around.

I am discussing in good faith.  You are the one who seems to be making accusations of hypocrisy, er observations of hypocrisy, but when pressed dance away from it.

You make a post, and I contest it.  You claim it had no point, it was just an observation.  I ask what exactly you observed, you tell me to mind my own business.  What do you mean by "good faith" here, then?

My old ladies give out candy.  And apparently one of them dragged her 20-year old grandson there to work.  Kid looked like he wanted to kill himself.

I think you should remember who you are talking to.

Besides, my tribe was slighted.  I have nothing against Yi personally.  I like Yi.  I even respect Yi.  Yi can be infuriating sometimes, though.
