[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 34653, member: 126"] Re: Gaddafi Found! Satire is humor with a point, that can inform those willing to try to understand. Thinly veiled partisan attacks shared among like minded people can seem like innocent humor, but only to other like minded people. To respond in kind one could cite public misstatements (like how many states we have), made by high political officeholders but that isn't constructive (IMO). It's much more pleasant to play nice. I am always willing to engage in thoughtful exchanges of ideas. The airwaves will get nasty enough after vacation is over and for the next year+. JR edit- I'd respond to the thread over on the LAB but they don't let me talk politics over there... :-( /edit PS: For any paying attention to Libya (the thread topic) whats next? Recall from geography class that's where the original (barbary coast) pirates were based.. [/QUOTE]
