just don't slime the man with garbage. I don't think that's too much to ask.

Nope.. not to much to ask at all. Intelligent debate.

Thanks for clarifying for me (though after this long I was pretty sure that is what you meant). I've never been banned or even warned for that matter.. don't wanna start now :o)

I happen to think that tonight's "caption this": CAPTION CHELSEA'S NEW LOOK is over-the-top in tackiness, and has gone in exactly the unfortunate direction some of these threads go. The thread makes FR look very bad, worse, IMHO than positive, though silly, vanities

[Eaker]

I disagree as she made herself fair game.

PS: Even though there is nothing "fair" about her.

Next thread

I don't care who is attacked based on looks, or whether they are political or not. The point is, this particular thread INSTANTLY became gross sexual jokes and mean statements about her "ugliness". This brutally unfair and juvenile about any woman, let alone one who is not that unattractive in the photo chosen.

It is how we look to the outside that bothers me first... as I said in the thread:

Manners is behaving when others are watching. Class is not having to change your behavior because someone is watching.

I think it is possible to teach manners, and class comes later.

As always, this is my humble opinion... I am not here to tick everyone off over Chelsea Clinton. Jeepers I hope I pick a better battle than that to fight. In the theme of a "kindler, gentler FR" I meant only point out one new thread that I felt was crossing a line, and see if the Moderator, or anyone else, agreed.

[Eaker]

I agree with you in spirit, but not when speaking of ANYTHING Clinton. She is the spawn of Bill and Hill and that makes her evil.

I was born Conservative and if these two were MY parents I would have denounced them at a very early age. That she continues to support them is disgraceful. Blood may be thicker than water but this is just wrong.

PS: I guess my problem is that I couldn't have any self respect if EVERYONE on the planet knew that I was a disgraced liar.

I wanna know: when are we gonna get A+Bert back

How do I keep the "no profanity, no personal attack" portions out of my posts if A+Bert comes back? VBG

I am overjoyed to read this thread.

We have picked up a large number of "Bush bashers/America is always wrong groups/Republicans are as evil as dims crowds" in the last year or so. Their one purpose in life is to disrupt FR and try to infuriate FReepers enough that they will lash out with profane/dumb statements which are used against us.

Maybe the Abuse button will become a friend to us all.

Anyway JR was talking about Jackson Browne, the musician.

LOL!
