    Exactly, thank you (part from I am a she, not a he;) ).
    GD it, I'm always doing that. Sorry pretty lady.
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.

    The thing is Chucky, if you are open to all news, you see it coming from both angles :) If you are trying to defend a position then you inevitably see things weighted differently :)

    again, you have selectively read what i have posted.

    i am open to all news and will discuss my points as i see them correct and from my point of view and experience.

    i don't re-post information that is months old just to stir up peoples bad feeling about the economy or job losses or reverse ramp house prices. if you see that as useful - that's you're perogative and again please fill your boots with that info - to me it's pointless and desperate.
    What I was actually saying,is that Geoffky's doomladen posts may be weighed out, forexample, by yours..:)

    so now i am the other extreme to Geoff, i do not post about women being raped.
    if that is your balance - i think you need to rethink your logic.

    As you have mine, I'd say! In fact, sometimes I misread :o but I try to read openly.

    Good, that provides balance

    Again, good .:confused:

    when did I talk about rape?:confused: neither did I accuse you of talking about rape:confused: I presume Geoffky did. I don't recall the post now, nor am I his keeper. I find THIS post informative. I have a poor memory and even though I spend a lot of time here I don't get to upset about not remembering a poster's history :)

    you still trying to defend someone who is a poor excuse of a human being who has disregard and does not care for any other person.

    I don't know geoffky, or you, or really anybody here. I don't think geoffky can be singled out as the only poor poster. I'm not defending anyone here right now, I'm defending a type of post in a thread that is that kind of post. :)

    with all due respect if you don't have a great memory - you should not defend him
    have a read of these - there are many more trust me...

    just because he may not be the only poor poster he shouldn't be told?

    Take yourself into a room, sit down, relax and have a think about it.
