Surf, I have not forgotten that for a minute, and I agree with you that the Democrats in the Senate should have called the Teapublicans’ bluff and made them actually filibuster these bills. Unfortunately, the Senate Democrats’ plan is to play constantly for a tie, not for a win. This Senate accomplished a great deal but nowhere near what they could have.
Lew, I note that you answered none of my questions. My pity for you grows. I will give you one last chance to answer my questions. If you choose not to do so, which I expect, then I will no longer bother communicating with such a grumpy old wanker. Having to support myself, I cannot waste time with discussants who cannot discuss when there are people here who can.
As for patriotism and for service to America, considering that you do not respect our country’s values and that you have spent your life (since your brief time, 45 years ago, blindly shooting at the Vietnamese) reading & commenting on the funnies, I lose no sleep over my patriotism and continued service to our nation & its people when compared to yours.
I wish you luck in attempting to answer my questions and provide an entry of substance, and if you choose not to, then I wish you luck and good health in your prolonged retirement and I hope that you do not waste the end of your life without doing something for this wonderful country that has done so much for you.
