Jim Lad... "I don't think my political savvy is in question, Gnu."

Yes, it is. Simple fact of the matter is, you have repeatedly ignored and pooh-poohed many posts on this and other related threads as if you haven't read them or you think they have no merit.

When you ignore the facts and the requests for you to address the facts, you lose credibility. When you lose sight of the fact that your credibility is in question and you repeat your mistakes, including debasing those whom you apparently feel superior to because of your ability to write posts in proper English (mind, not everyone is as educated as you... or, perhaps, has your eyesight???), you only repeat your incredibility.

Political savvy? You have as much as as your arguements... saying tha same thing over and over with little substance? Address the facts and provide some reasonable input. AND... read the posts of the people you purport to debate. When you ignore true debate, it is to your detriment.

Having said that, I intend to stand down. No sense in talking to someone who doesn't listen. We'll see what happens after Jan 26. If Stevie One becomes a human being, the Coalition will be worthwhile. If not, the Coalition will be more than worthwhile.
