Yeah, it's fun to join a spiritual group and make fun of them, for an
hour or two. But, for twenty years? Go figure.

You know, it's odd, but generally speaking, the older one
gets, the better sense of proportionality one has. With
Barry, it's the reverse:

To suggest that the TMO has ever done anything
anywhere /near/ as bad as the stunt the Republicans just
tried, in terms of sheer malice, recklessness, and wanton
destructiveness, is simply insane.
For once, Share made a meaningful observation:
"turq, dummy or not, one thing I get is that some people are just as
invested in trashing the TMO as they say others are in not trashing it!"
"Invested in" doesn't quite cover it, though, in Barry's case.
Obsessed by or consumed by trashing the TMO are more like it.
