Not even a slight smile? Dang, I thought that one was not too bad.

Come on, Charles, what do you want me to do? Agree with everyone one here? Be uber-liberal and utterly profane (not hard at all to do) so that I fit in with even the most liberal of the crowd. Say the word, and I will do it - I can become CuriousLurker’s Liberal Cussing Cousin … or, tell me that you do not want independent thinkers here, and I will stop posting,… or, just let me be myself - I have no problem being the pinata here, but will always be civil and keep a sense of humor.

I might learn a thing or two, have some of my opinions change, or provide some food for thought as well. I do realize that I have to be on my toes when posting on issues if I expect to sway this crowd in any way, if that’s even possible - not a problem. I like the debating of issues with logic and facts. Hell, I might even go full fledged liberal instead of the half-assed one I am right now.

I’d like some consistency from you.

You said you “would go deep serious if someone tried to humiliate me for doing so. [Taking government handouts]”

This is exactly what carlaschluge was arguing needs to be done.

Why have you not downdinged him/her if you disagree with his/her positions so violently?
