    Thank you. Thank you for taking pity on a fool like me. How gracious of you to kneel down from your throne.

    You can, of course, think what you wish about me. But I rather enjoy that you think so low of me. Tells me many things.

    No Puck...I do not think so low of you. I really don't think that much about you. What I cannot understand why it matters to you.

    You are not my enemy...you are not my ally.

    And here is the difference between you and me. I do not think low of people ....I may not agree with what they say or what they do. But it is the actions or words I judge - not the person.

    I fail to understand how one can judge actions and/or words and not be judging the person... Isn't that what defines a person? Does not how we express ourselves show others what we think and thus what kind of person we are?

    It matters to me because context and tone are important, IMO. I am a student of history. Looking back at events from the different sides of things shows that context is very important. But I also realize that quite often those things are difficult to express properly in this medium. Perhaps that was the case here. I reckon in the grand scheme of things, it does not matter much.

    I hope some day you will be able to learn how to judge the actions of a person and the words of the person making a judgement about them.

    Good luck.

    Ugh,

    Do we have to do this over again?

    I guess banging around with an intern ain't as bad as having the 'community organization' people you surrounded your self with implode right before your eyes?

    I will put this book on the same reading list as the one Dick Cheney is writing.

    Well, we all never do stop learning, eh?

    If this wasn't so creepy, I'd laugh?

    It was a real, nice spontaneous moment when the Phillie's fan hugged his daughter after she tossed back that foul ball that he caught.

    I can see the brain trust in the WH thinking, then sending BO's daughter out to show what a family man he is.




    Daddy,
    Let me give you a hug, since you have 'dropped the ball' playing games instead of playing prez!!!
