Doug, Vox, et al,
Could y'all go masturbate somewhere else? Maybe take it to email or
something. This group is supposed to be about gardening.

Regards,

Bushes are garden plants & loony rightwingers have vegetables where the
rest of us have brains, so it IS all about gardens.

But you don't like a measily one off-topic thread, don't read it. Your
kvetching about it is doubly off-topic -- being off-topic for the
off-topic.


I suspect that the problems isn't so much that it is an off-topic thread as
much as that it isn't flattering to organized religion. Bob accused me of
lying about the percentage of priests that were gay a few months ago. When
I posted a link to a study conducted by a faculty member at Johns Hopkins
University that supported my assertion, not so much as a "sorry" was posted.

Interestingly, Bob found it just fine to post a message about his fondness
for Fox News to Rec.Food.Cooking just last week - sounds off-topic to me.

And a message about how Germany was "screwed" prior to WWII - to
Rec.food.cooking

And a message about how USA today declined to print a column by Ann
Coulter - to Rec.food.cooking

Now, I'm not saying that Bob shouldn't have posted the messages. I just
find it interesting that he has a problem with others posting to off-topic
threads here while he posts to off-topic threads on other news groups.


Maybe also because Sheila makes rightwingers out to be uneddicated loons &
is WAY too easy a target for a thinking response? I swear to Great Ghu.
I've met some actually intelligent (though misguided) rightwingers in my
life, but they all seem too embarrassed to pipe in when the usenet variety
of rightwinger starts making rattling sounds with the rocks in their
heads.
