Nice try - you almost pulled it off. You cant say "don't do this, please please please dont do this", and then turn around and do it yourself. How, you may ask? Your statement "As much as I agree with the politicis of this ..blah blah.." shows your opinion of the message, yet immediately you turn to saying "dont talk about that here".
You can't have it both ways - either don't have the discussion here, or do - but dont try to hide your thinly veiled public agreement with the message in with your steadfast "don't talk about that here, unless it's Linux" statement. -Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jos Purvis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Triangle Linux Users Group discussion list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2004 6:04 PM Subject: Re: [TriLUG] OT : Don't let Cheney hide > Carolinux.com wrote: > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > > From: David Donnelly, Public Campaign Action Fund <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Date: Wed, 06 Oct 2004 16:07:30 GMT > > Subject: Don't let Cheney hide from Halliburton facts > > To: Bob Evans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > *massive snippage of political info* > > Please don't do this.
