I am not "backing these loonies", Don-W-t. My last remarks to Henry were simply a bit of humour in regards to the membername he has chosen. It derives from a scene in a famous movie, and I was making a joke based on that scene.

The fact that I am willing to talk in a friendly fashion to people like Henry Krinkle and GfS (and DougR when he still bothered to come here) is based simply on this: they are fellow human beings. I agree with some things they say about politics, I disagree with other things they say about politics, but I do not view their every appearance as an excuse to personally insult and attack them, regardless of what they say. That's what several of my fellow liberals here do all the time...and I think that's your mistake in conduct, not mine.
