Yes, Songwronger, I did use the term, "these people", with reference to the people in my congressional district, the third most conservative congressional district in the United States; the ninth congressional district of Georgia. I was wondering how, I, a liberal from Massachusetts was going to fare down here. So, while I don't expect you to refrain from distorting my remarks, or taking them out of context, I deeply resent the charge of racism, as well as your forcing me to type when it should be obvious, even to you, that I can't. Finally, I'm certain that everybody who has followed this thread will empathize with you for having been "picked on".
