Nerd, I am not Guest, I am Little Hawk. Were you under the impression that I was "Guest"? I'm Canadian. I would gather from Guest's comments that he/she is American. I never post as just plain "Guest" on this forum, though I have posted now and then as Guests with various odd names for humorous purposes. Be that as it may, I am none of the Guests on this particular thread.

My jaundiced view of both the Democrats and Republicans is extremely common outside the borders of the USA. When one is standing well outside the parameters of a game, it's easy to spot the fact that it is just a game. When one is inside the game, one tends to take it more seriously.
