RESPONSE: Apologies are not necessary. You have important contributions to
make here vis-a-vis current financial uncertainties instead of getting
caught-up with spurious posts.

This is to clarify that every one of the 15 messages mentioned above
were anti-Bush and without foundation, context or perspective. Some
were outright falsehoods. Thus I was forced into single-handedly
correcting all of them in the interests of fairness and the truth:-))
RESPONSE: Jokes aside......There is a fair amount of outright falsehoods
expressed here from time to time. I dont see you "single-handedly correcting
all of them in the interests of fairness and the truth". Does that mean at
those times truth be damned or are you plain hypocritical??
a) There is no such thing as "taking our right to Free Speech" too far.
While most of us take free speech for granted, people in history gave
their lives to ensure free speech for us, and many Goanetters live in
countries where there is no free speech except when they interact on
the internet.
RESPONSE: You are abusing your right to Free Speech here!!
b) A better question to ask, in my never humble opinion, is why there
are Goanetters who spring up from time to time who question what others
are interested in? If they are not interested in a topic all they have
to do is ignore it. Why do they think they need to influence and control
whatever it is that others want to talk about?
RESPONSE: While you believe you have a right to speak-out "single-handedly
correcting all of them in the interests of fairness and the truth", you dont
think other Goanetters have a right to express themselves about topics of
interest? That's rather spurious commentary from one who just lectured the
rest of us on "people in history gave their lives to ensure free speech".
More hypocrisy. And ofcourse you will want to respond and add to that
hypocrisy.

A discussion where Obama (slightly crooked), was born should not have made
it to Goanet in the first place. Once the topic is introduced, everyone
has the
right to participate in the discussion.
RESPONSE: You have alot of rights including the right to remain
silent.....:-)
Jokes aside your rights are listed here:

Please read carefully, there is no such thing as you state above.
Nevertheless, you are free to interpret your rights as you like. Its not
surprising there have been no takers for your line of reasoning.
If you guys are going to go on endlessly on OFF-TOPIC posts, do not expect
any explanations with your rejections.
