That is avery disingenuous and sleazy innuendo. Very like what McCarthy tried to do. Let me guess you also are going to accuse those who contribute to the acting sections of being thespians and most of the participants in general of being heterosexuals. chances are you don't get the joke so I'll give you the source: http://gis.washington.edu/phurvitz/outgoing/bustagut/Non-SlanderousPoliticalSmearSpeech.htm Moreover, if anything go through the discussion logs and the ones who are very interested in changing wiki entries and advance agendas are the various right wing groups, like Operation Rescue (see the abortion pages) or global warming deniers or Ron Paul's followers. In other words the reich wing, not progressives. Finally funny how you bring up Soros so much, and with the typical accusations. Yet the uber rich that seem actually to be doing what you accuse Soros of are the Koch brothers. Of course with them its a matter of getting the best politicians money can buy instead of reinforcing civil society. -- Larry C. Lyons web: http://www.lyonsmorris.com/lyons LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/larryclyons There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." - Isaac Asi ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:346192 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
