I meant this as a distorted magnifying glass on your opinion of your neighbor to the south, taken to an absurd extreme. I didn't mean it as bait, but you seem to have bitten, and hard, saying that my exaggerations were "true for the most part."

I apologize for seeding this, but you should also knock it off.

So, virtual handshake and a real truce?

To allow for 1/4" of grout? grin

It's hard to know one's intentions when they're behind a computer, and I'm honestly surprised that you wouldn't know how I would take that, as it's happened before. And for the record- the government serves the elite, is conspiratorial/withholds the truth, and isn't sincerely concerned about anybody who is poor or non-white, isn't just my opinion of my neighbor to the south, but rather my opinion of all states (modified to fit my "true for the most part" statement).

So, yes, virtual gimpy handshake.

Peace and love, Peter.

I think you missed the point. This is how I was hoping your post would look:

My apologies to Michael and anyone else that may have been offended by my other post.

It's unfortunate that things came out the way they did, but I thought false statements were being made about me, and I replied accordingly. Otherwise, I wouldn't even of mentioned any of it.

Most importantly, although I loathe the practices of any government, I'm not anti said government.

I'm not using this as a cop out, as it's ultimately my fault, but I'm heavily involved in political and social issues (they literally consume my day), and, well, in all honesty, I lay in bed all day and don't have anyone to discuss these things with, so they stew, and I tend to let go when I do (my response to Peter). My Facebook page is exemplary of this, as a few users on this forum know.

Again, I'm sorry.

I tried to edit it for you, but I was too late.

That's me, talk talk talk, with nothing else to do.

No its an Empire (Que Darth Vadar music). The Republicans even said so. wink

Geez, who needs Egypt when you can rumble in the alley behind Axiom. grin

On a more serious note, all large countries that expand their interests end up behaving the same way. When you have the biggest stick...
