That's all.

And honestly, I hope that sort of thing comes across as affirming a baseline of respect. We might disagree, but if I didn't give a fuck then I wouldn't respond at all.

I'm pretty sure those are my last words on the matter. This is a thread about Karl Rove. If there's anyone about whom I don't give a fuck, it's him.

Certainly. I always have a tremendous amount of respect for you. While it may not always show through, I do take into consideration the things you say.

While you may have seen something I should have considered, the reality is, Soviet posted something that was inflammatory. He didn't quote it. He didn't link it. He assumed I, or everyone else, knew what he talking about. Perhaps it's just me, but I tend to feel it's the responsibility of the author of a post to make sure his/her reader has all they need to make an informed opinion about something written. In my opinion, Soviet didn't do that. It doesn't really matter if anyone disagrees. Their opinion isn't valid in this case, because they aren't me.

Whether my opinion was informed or not isn't the issue. It was that I made a response post, and on the heels of that post, it was assumed by a few that I missed something. Then Wicked wanted his pound of flesh, then Fov wanted his pound of flesh. So on and on it goes. When this could have been something Soviet and I could have easily figured out 3 pages ago. Whether or not I should have said anything at all is certainly up for debate. But not by those who are now guilty of doing the same thing... namely, you, Wicked and Fov.

So we can move on unless there is something else you need to say.

This your idea of giving the last word? You have plastic sheets, too.

Drop it already. Jesus tap-dancing Christ, some people just can't let shit go. You've wasted enough of this thread bitching up a storm. You "win," whatever that means, happy? Please, just let it get back on topic and quit being disruptive. I'm trying to get it back on topic.

I was done, but now I've got something else.

You've shown again that a man who has some strong opinions can also have some grace.

Cheers,

That's what I thought.

The important difference is that I'm not complaining that people are responding to my post. You are.

I'm not complaining at all. And now, everyone in here seems to have moved on except you. So... what insult would you like to sling my way now? Anything productive?

I'm not insulting you. Stop being so sensitive.
