OOOOOPS, that'd be you chief!

Just curious about what it all really amounts to.

Thanks for your opinion. Don't recall in my post that I called anyone on THIS site an idiot, do you? I also didn't conceive that a quote from a man who made a profession of poking fun at government and whom died decades ago to warrant personal attacks. But I guess it's different where you are from.
Glad you were able to defend him and take a chance to ridicule me. I believe that is exactly WWJD.

Sorry, you missed the fact that I asked questions....didn't offer an opinion,...and wasn't defending anyone.
However, I will now state that your attack on SH was mean spirited, maybe even vicious, while his gibe at you appears to be in the same spirit of "fun" as was yours in the first post, IMO. Hopefully you are now in your serene and understanding state of mind and can see the difference.
