Actually, that was him trolling for (more) freebies. They had given him some trousers as a gift, and he wanted more of them. He was pretty good at getting gifts from people and businesses. Did you know that he graduated from a rural teacher's college and taught migrant workers kids when he got out of school?

Dwight, Just speaking for myself.. while I am very sorry Mr. Carter is now dying of cancer, and I would not wish that fate upon anyone.. Death, however, does not absolve him of his acts while living, which I have found reprehensible. I have resolutely found his actions while President the root cause of much of the current stress we now see in mid east with Iran and his treatment of our ally Israel was never acceptable. While I give him as much respect as possible for a human.. I still hold him accountable, both living and after death for what he did and how he acted.. With respect to you personally.. others have strongly held opinions which have meaning to them... it is their choice to voice them.. it is my choice to listen. Kind regards, Grant...

I can hear lots of politics on the radio and must dismiss most of it because it is waaay partisan. There is not much friendship in expression of politics and in friendships, if politics is forbidden, the only politics is pure indoctrination by partisan preachers. I like the politics expressed by friends at okiebenz. I can learn better politics at okiebenz than any run-of-the-mill radio rant. Bring it on. I am sorry that Dwight and Jaime were injured by the expressed politics of Curly but I can read through a bit further and see that there was not much mal-intent in the brief Curly statement. Nothing really changes, but I enjoy the okiebenz friendly banter better than the media baloney where everyone is enemy and trying to indoctrinate me. Does anyone hear Mike Rivero at gcnlive.com or whatreallyhappened.com ? I enoy his commentary which is clearly not progressive, but it is less demeaning than the non-progressive preachers.
