I'm guessing you might have a shoulder sprain considering how far you had to reach on that one.

Which brings me around to an underlying point, most ditto heads won't question the scientific quasi theories proposed by a college drop out who flunked out of most of his classes, including ball room dancing. They won't question his views on the war anymore than they'd question why a boil on his ass kept him out of Vietnam.

I think what really pisses people off, and it applies to everybody, is when someone like Rush takes the most extreme views and tries to generalize them to include anyone left of center. It's not any different than calling you a Nazi because of your tendencies towards nationalism. Or calling someone a tree hugger because they worry about clear cutting on the OP.

You can choose to not "believe" in global warming, but that won't stop it from screwing us. You can also choose to not believe in gravity, but that won't stop your head from cracking when you slip off your soapbox.
