I don’t know what medication you are on

Diet Coke, though I prefer Diet Pepsi, but Coke was on sale this week.

So you don't see hysteria when you turn on any of the 3 cable news channels? Analysis of who believes in Creationism, what religion the candidates belong to, what Hillary's campaign theme song is going to be, how black Obama is, who McCain is most likely to punch out (I threw that one in), who is going to pardon Scooter Libby, etc?

As all this goes on, we get "Hurry Fred, hurry. You're going to be out of it Fred. Announce Fred quickly! Mitt is ahead of you in Iowa Fred. S*** or get off the pot Fred".

To me, that is also hysterical. And to succumb and believe this would, to me, be a desperate jump into the race. I'm glad he has remained calm.

We may see different things or have different definitions. Note that I never accused you of being on drugs or resorted to personal attacks when we have disagreed.

>Diet Coke....<

:) You know I used ‘medications’ to get an idea across, not to actually accuse you. Personally, I prefer iced tea myself. Carbonated drinks are bad for the bones.

As far as hysteria goes, the media is going to try to get ratings any way they can.

Oh THAT hysteria. That’s the “crazy” I was talking about.
:) Perhaps a better word would have been “hype”.
