Or, you can ask others in here how they interpret them. Maybe it makes you feel better if you think I'm singling you out and if it does, continue to believe it. But if you ask Spence, he'd probably tell you that I target him more than anyone. And he doesn't bitch and moan. He usually comes back with some witty retort. And please don't ever call me arrogant. I'm anything but that. In fact, the word I most often hear to descibe me is a-hole and I'm fine with that.

Like I said, anything I've posted that could be construed as a personal attack has almost always been as a direct response of the same on to me. Quite frankly, I don't care if you single me out or not, nor do I really care about your comments of me. On the other hand, I'm not going to sit idly and accept you chiming in as is so typical and accuse me of making personal attacks on someone, while you're hypocritically in the midst of doing the same.

It must be easy sitting in the shadows, rarely adding anything and then popping in to belittle those that don't stand up to your moral perspicacity.

I knew right after I posted the earlier response to your criticism of me that I should have made a comment about your recent lack of a sense of humor. I guess you didn't notice the little emoticon. You take everything way too seriously, kid. Yes, you do sometimes come across as an intellectual elitist. I don't think you really are that way, though. Comments sometimes look worse when read rather than being heard. I interpret your talking down at people who have differing opinions as insulting. Most things that I've seen directed at you by myself and others appear to be busting your marbles and not mean spirited. Maybe you're just overly sensitive when people make fun of Obama.

It was on my Word-A-Day calendar that I keep on my desk last week. Seemed like a good fit.
