You don't seem to realize that as long as
you address me in a condescending manner you're gonna get it handed right back to you, fdd. The more I read of your posts and responses, the more I see that your own reading comprehension is not exactly "up to par". Be sure to tell your "hero" how you plan to vote. If you can, how about you help me get in contact with him so you don't have to use red letters, and I'll ask him myself: Does "any ailment" equate "fake an ailment"? Because I've been doing some reading, and I don't see it. I see "any ailment" as just that.
I have been waiting for this one!
Just as I predicted. I knew it would only be a short time to come after "you think too much."
More than twice. You really mean that, that you hope I take no offense? Forgive me for being a little incredulous at this point, because what and how you post seems to be very much tied to your moods.
Re-read, carefully, what I posted in that thread, fdd. I questioned you, pointed a few inconsistencies out, and asked for clarification. I also pointed out what you sound like, which does not equate to making declarative statements, "You are this, you are that." I said, "This sounds like _____________." You then accused me of calling you names, and I iterated the first time, I call it like I see it and it's based on
your posts. If that equals name-calling for you, then how would I change your mind? Do I have to say, "Nuh uh, no I didn't!" for you to see and understand that I did not actually call you anything?
You then told me how I had no idea and didn't know, so I asked, "What don't I know? I only know what you put out for us to read." You never answered. Was this it? That your hero is gay? Is there something more?
I called it like I saw it, fdd, I always have and I always will. You have an issue with gays being allowed to marry and used your own choices in your life as the example for why they should not be afforded the same right of choice you have. I disputed that idea. You brought up tradition and sanctity, yet by your own words and your own life you have scoffed in the face of tradition and sanctity. I
thought I had been very clear that I do not judge you for your choices, but pointed out that there are indeed those who would. And many of those people would consider your living situation to be only marginally "better" than allowing gays to marry.
Both Miss Hester and I have asked you what kind of insurance provides for non-married, adult dependents, because we both have family members we'd love to get onto our insurance (she her adult children, and I my father-in-law, and next May my youngest son). You never answered. What
you don't know about
me is that I know how it works because I've done it. The first year my 2nd husband and I were together we had a son. However, I refused to marry just because I was pregnant. So, my oldest boy was just over 1yo when we finally were married. In the meantime, however, he put me on his insurance as well as the child. How'd we do that? We told them we were married when we weren't. What's that called? I call it lying.
I take no offense at being intellectually challenged, or if I'm being inconsistent, or close-minded, or not thinking something through completely and having that pointed out. I do take offense when someone is condescending towards me, and I do not accept being treated in that manner.
