    Fair enough.. I am still having trouble figuring out, due to what was said and what was qouted, why this statement was made.. What exaclty was the meaning of it? And I believe that can only be answered by the person that made it..

    don't sweat it. You're new, sort of, we make all sorts of comments to each other here, usually in good humor. Gotta have thick skin to survive here. Do that, and you get to know alotta cool guys, regardless of ideology.

    Dont worry aaharvel.. Im not upset or anything.. However, I have never heard that saying before, so I googled the exact phrase and it came back as sexual harassment.. Was just wondering where that had any merit in what we were initally talking about..

    I'm a toilet intellectual with the attention span of a sea turtle...if that qualifies as educated, than I'm a freaking scholar. I'm not sure where your info comes from but you would have to go way out of your way to offend or harass me.....I'm electronic.

    I apologize for not responding quickly enough for you.

    I am fairly new and I do have very thick skin; nonetheless, since the day I joined this forum I have been polite, thankful, as well as humble to any and everyone that I have been in contact with.. I give and have given everyone on this site the utmost respect and consideration.. I am 29 years old, and I expect to be treated the same way.. That being said, I am not pi$$ed or anything, I just wanted a honest answer to my question. Also, I do not want to feel like I am going to be criticized or made fun of at other people exspense on this site when responding or joing in on a specific thread.. I am here to learn as much as I possibly can before I start spending thousands of dollars on my "dream system" as well as make friends in the process.. Its just very discouraging to try to fit in, while other people judge you and not even know you.. This is not the first time my character has been questioned and I'm not understanding why I am getting the 5th degree.. Anyways, it has been forgotten and lets get back to the original topic at hand... :)

    Perhaps my sarcasm and dialect makes you feel funny. Noone made fun of you or judged you, at any time, and you have the internet at your fingertips for information in regards to specific comments to your queries.

    You've been real active lately and thats cool but if you're getting bent on a couple broad comments and a Latin structure, of which I don't even speak Latin fluently....just enough to get me killed or beaten, get lost. You speak of thick skin....the internet is your friend and relax.

    I encourage you to participate nonetheless as my involvement in the conversation is borderline meaningless anyways. Wait a minute....where am I?

    In case you two (F1Nut, HearingImpaired) did not read the entire thread, this situation is over with, and there is no need to revisit it nor dwell on it.. Dorokausi and I have settled the situation/difference, whatever you want to call it, and we are currently back to what the thread was originally about..

    Thanks

    Wow, really?

    Bill Waterson, the guy who wrote it, is widely regarded as one of the most respected cartoonists of all time for that comic. Read and learn.

    Just for the record, Fox "News" has been demonstrated time and again to be the most centered and least biased news source on TV with a mild right of center slant. The other networks do take a hard left bend and Fox Commentary goes far right.

    I always get a kick out of the attacks on Fox News by libs. Can you give one example of a right wing take on the news that wasn't commentary? Oh, BTW, the least biased print magazine is the "Christian Science Monitor"

    As for the point of this thread, I like watching two informed, or two entertaining guys have at it.... :)

    I do like Sheperd Smith. Greta von Frankenstein gives me nightmares.

    JD I don't have to provide evidence. Been there, done that. The topic has been beaten to death many times over with Susteren's ugly stick, and no matter what case I bring to the table, you'll just shoot it down with what you believe is factual so what's the point. Read John Moody's memos. He's the executive producer of Fox News. Next to impossible to refute the horses mouth. Unless of course the English language has a doppelganger lurking about that I and millions of other Americans are unaware of.

    "mild right of center bias." That's nice. Baby steps. ;)

    At least I'm not to the point that I think CNN, CBS, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, etc are unbiased. Those news programs just piss me off with their unashamed bias.

    News is not biased ... it's news i.e. reporting of facts ... so if you think you've found a news program that's biased then it's something else pretending to be news ... Unlike the news programs of decades gone by, that's most of them ...
