- William- Here's a simple task for you; not quite as simple as those
- potholders you've been working on down at The Home, but pretty damn
- simple, nonetheless:
- If there is "clear logical difference" between the prexy's
- statement and what was posted, then PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, point
- out what that diffeerence is. So far, all we've gotten from you is
- some ridiculous drivel about how George was only pandering to the
- lunatic fringe, so everything's OK; and a great deal of utterly
- pointless semantic nit-picking. If you believe that you *have*
- made this difference clear, please refer to the post in which you
- believe that you did so. If you absolutely refuse to answer this
- question, and would prefer to go on making tiresome comments about
- my attention span instead, then do so, and I will know it's OK to
- ignore you altogether.
- I suspect that, if you put your mind to it, you will be able to
- accomplish this task in some way shape or form with only a moderate
- amount of drooling. Don't let me down, Wilbur.
- Bill
