My point exactly, actually . . . maybe I was being way too subtle.

Or "too clever by half."

Lately, the anonymous barrage crossposting crap has gotten even worse than
normal.

Sorry if my thread about off-topic posting was, well, off topic.

Leslie, unless one or both sides start using military aircraft - it
really
is irrelevant for this newsgroup.


In any case, US campaign politics becomes less and interesting the
further
you are away from the US.
