That is possible I admit that I have serious doubts and the last thing I'd do is pontificate (but I may have done it inadvertently). If I didn't have this type of a dilemma I would be more concerned about my own thinking process. It's much easier to quote the previous person "politics is war without bullets - start firing" - but I'm afraid that is a little too dogmatic and doesn't allow my opponents to right to disagree with me as much as I disagree with them. What if the shoe is on the other foot?

Of course it's hard to tell how much data you've assimilated to form your opinions and how much your leanings had to do with your conclusions. But, no offense, it appears that you'll want to read more about your historical interests and add some books on the social graces. Trebb is on to that; This forum is different from all the rest and that's where you may have erred. We don't have pi$$ing contests and only Jim Robinson is the pontiff. We do, however have guards who can go hard on newbies if they appear suspicious.
