Um, what's the point of the post? Just trolling for commentary? Or do you have a specific argument to make? |

My comment, living in the 'burbs of Portland (and so glad I am beyond the city council's grasp). Let he who has not lied throw the first stone. Now, go and lie no more. However, if anything comes up that was against the law, then he should resign. |

I think candidates and elected officials can rightly be held to a higher standard regarding lying to the public. So can employees who lie on their job applications or in the course of their work. |

I Owe It All To John D'Oh

First of all, since when do people have to make a point? They can't post a general interest article? You better tell Jolly, I'd guess that more than 3/4 of the threads he starts are simply links to articles he finds interesting, for one reason or another. Second of all, the point of the post is in the title of the post. Third of all, if you don't like the style of the post, you are free to either ignore it, or say that you don't like it, just as I am free to ignore you, to point out that you are rather selective in who you choose to criticize, or to tell you to jump off a cliff. |

Quirt, come have a cup of coffee with me. Do you take cream or sugar? |

OK, Quirt, it's there in my avatar, but don't think for a minute that the heart in the cream opens the door for any more of that sweetheart talk. {{{{{{Heebie Jeebies}}}}}} |

What is strange is that everyone knew Adams was (admittedly) gay. If he had just responded to the question that he had done nothing illegal and immoral and that his personal life was no one's business, he'd still get elected. In fact, he probably could have admitted to having sex with they guy and still get elected in Portland. |

I'm not feeling the love here, brenda. I think I'll have to get my coffee elsewhere. |

Hey, you know I'm married to the best guy in the world. I still think your worth sharing a cup of joe on a Wednesday morning. (It's still morning here.) I'll try to get over the rejection of my coffee. |

I'll have coffee with you, George. Quirt turned me down as you can see. My 'expectations management' comment led to a parting of our coffee klatch. I take cream and sugar in mine as you can see in the picture, but if you like it without, that's OK with me. (But I'll bet your Mrs. George is actually a sweetie.) That 18-year-old's name is a hoot with this article. It's another version of the doctors' names thread. I have a hunch Kincaid is correct in his assessment. An open and direct response would have been far better in any case. |

Sure, LE, come join us for coffee. I don't have brandy handy, so it will have to be a bring-your-own for that. |

Hey, I was dissed.
I didn't turn you down so much as acknowledge that if I give you the Heebie Jeebies, it's best that we not share an imbibement. Who knows what kind of adverse physical reaction you might have.

You're right, I should have chosen a different phrase. I am sorry I hurt your feelings, Quirt. I was recalling the heartsy emoticon you once employed that scared me. It was indeed more of a or or response, rather then a or or reaction. I certainly hope that clarifies things and can restore our coffee times together. sisterly hug

Uh, I'm in a committed relationship. Emoticons aside, I'm off the market. So you can just keep your hands to yourself, lady.
