Paul I would like just stated what I have noticed.
out of the say 5 months I have been on this list I have counted 4
slug-politics threads. and out of the 4 all 4 ended up on the regular
slug list....
personally I am sure there are a group of them who does not like the
good natured ribbing. But i honestly belive that most of them just
dont give a flying <insert blank>
Robin made a jab as bush and chainey conventially avoiding war I was
talking about how they are peace lovers.
I see one guy make a big fuss over nothing. which I think just over
all this converstaton has ended.... No one is pushing a political
agenda around here.
