That is not the whole story aplus. People were concerned about her and aksing where she was etc. Lots of folks.
I too get caught up in things that are not even worth arguing from time to time. If someone is not smart enough to know the difference between opinion and fact, you simply try to point out fact. They get in denial and things take off.

If you read that thread, you'll note a whole lot of folks talked about how bad it is here.
You ought to see all the pms I get. There are a lot of conservative folks who ask why I even bother to discuss things with idiots.
Then there are those over in the Mensa boards who think lib folks posting here are complete idiots.
Like you, I don't hide my identity every where I go. Some folks have different names in different boards and come clean about who they are im pms. Others don't.
Alice is alice in both boards too.

ya know, sometimes people get an epiphany.
Does it really mater what she says about you, me , or anyone else on this board? How many here talk about others in pms , on messenger , in emails , and on other boards?
No I dont agree with her politics but she is right and others have said it MANY times before this place can get NASTY. Some will say get thicker skin but really too many forget there are people with feelings who cant "read" tone, syntex in the printed word.
Take time to think abot how that might come across .....CIVIL Debate is crucial for growth and understanding.

| If you are asking me, yes it does matter what Alice thinks about me - to me. I could explain it in length but it is not important for this subject.

For what it's worth...
I've said nothing anywhere else that I haven't said here. AND, if one will read carefully, I named no names.
Has it ever occurred to you, A+, that I do not insist anyone agree with anything I say. And, I don't care if they disagree with it. It would be nice, however, that the disagreement come without slurs and personal attacks.
A+, your attempt to discredit or embarrass me is very much akin to what the campaigners are doing right now. If you feel you've accomplished your goal, more power to ya'!
What Boogie said is right...I also get caught up arguing something that is really not worth arguing about, and I pop off...which only fans the flames...and really turns into a great waste of time.
Just my 2 cents...
Alice

Because while OT and Alice are too mired in hate to really learn anything, the normal people here can learn from each other.

You do love to throw that idiot word around when someone doesn't agree with you and kiss your A$$.
Personally, I love throwing that prick word around when it comes to arrogant bully boys like you who can't come up with anything of substance to allow.

Hello, Alice
Let me introduce myself, I am Hanta Yo, I am a woman and a rancher in South Central Montana. I've looked up all your posts, and they are all in Political Bull.

I allowed myself to get caught up in that mess on the political board at rancher's...
That, and I've been fussing over my grandson who sustained another concussion while playing football. That was wretched...long hours in the emergency room. He's ok now, I guess. He's been out of play for 2 weeks and lost his starting position on the team, and I'm mad as a hornet about that...yet, my dear husband, and my dear son-in-law, tell me it's just part of the game. And really, his health and well being means more than some dumb position. Just like, you good folks mean more to me than that hateful political board.
Love you guys!

It appears to me that you were looking for a fight. All of your posts are in Political Bull. Have you ever tried going to, say, Coffee Shop or Ranch Talk or Horses and Dogs? No. You came here to pick a fight, found you didn't have the intestinal fortitude stick up for your fight so you went whining back to your CT board. If you posted about your grandson in Coffee Shop you would have received so much support...you don't get the psychology of this Forum. It's amazing how us ranchers can separate Political Bull from Coffee Shop from Bull Sessions from Ranch Talk to Hunting and Pictures.
FWIW, I was on CattleToday forum for a little while, but got bored with it. It is so very tame. I feel I've really earned my place here on Ranchers.net (I'm sure a lot of other people on this website think different, but that's the American Way) .
