I don't try to speak for anybody but myself. What I was trying to show you is WHY you might be getting the reactions that you are from so many people who have an issue with you.

What do you keep hearing people say here: You have good points but the way you express yourself makes it hard for people to even acknowledge them because you are extremely abrasive. I am giving you the heads up on my POV because it's mine, I can, and I felt like it. You don't like it, don't read it, don't respond. This is probably the last message I write to you anyway, because frankly it's just like hitting my head against a brick wall- you refuse to even consider the points and feelings of others.

Clearly you are too defensive to even consider the possibility that you are ever wrong, and will just continue to dismiss anything that I or others will say. That's fine, no skin off my back. Just don't expect the reactions you get to change either.

That's what I get for trying to help the young and callow, lol.

Nor was I being sarcastic.Some don't watch the news which is why I asked.I don't watch it as often as I would like to.And the wake up and smell the coffee statement wasn't either.Also, is what disrespectful in your eyes representative of everyone here? Why is it that you've made yourself the respect police? If she felt it was disrespectful, then perhaps SHE should have told me.People "read" things different;y but you seem to have spoken for this whole website.
