Hmm....I'd appreciate it if you didn't address me as "hey you." For someone whose posts invariably include references to hugs, God, and values, I'd have thought basic politeness wouldn't be something you'd skip.

As to the rest, I noticed you left out the two-line paragraph towards the very bottom of your post which disclosed your voting preferences and touted the virtues of McCain/Palin as the ticket most likely (in your opinion) to keep to the constitution and other founding documents. That can't have been an accident, since you included the closing signature which came AFTER that paragraph, as well as EVERYTHING before it - in other words, ONLY your endorsement of McCain/Palin was left out. Not sure why you'd go out of your way to hide that this time, but a quick look back at the OP shows where it fit into your original post.

And I'm still not sure why you'd pick fleur out for "mental development." First, you take her to task for "losing touch with the present year," and then as a rememdy, you suggest that she read documents written over two hundred years ago. I'm not sure what point you OR fleur were originally trying to make, but I am sure that pretty much everybody here is at least passingly familiar with the founding documents. We just sometimes interpret them differently. And you know what? Even professional career constitutional scholars do that. So I'd say it's just this side of a TOS violation - if not actually over the line into an actual one - to tell someone they need "mental development" because they don't share your view of one part of the constitution - or especially, of a current issue.
