    I am sorry. I have made myself perfectly clear about polite and respectful posting. And you know? I might have cut you just a little more slack if you had something more academic to contribute to the conversation. But your short little snappy come-backs fall way short of the intellectual discussions I seek.

    I do hope you have a good life. I am sure mine will be great without you in it. You've been asking for this: We are done. Go bother somebody else.
    Personal Ignore Policy PIP: I like civil discourse. I will give you all the respect in the world if you respect me. Mouth off to me, or express overt racism, you will be PERMANENTLY Ignore Listed. Zero tolerance. No exceptions. I'll never read a word you write, even if quoted by another, nor respond to you, nor participate in your threads. ... Ignore the shallow. Cherish the thoughtful. Long Live Civil Discourse, Mutual Respect, and Good Debate! ps: Feel free to adopt my PIP. It works well.

    Academic is what you need?

    Super, now I can be sure that you are not worth the time.

    "Dive, market, DIVE!

    Take DT down with you.

    McCarthy said if you like this economy you must vote not to impeach.

    As if that had anything to do with guilt or innocence.

    Are we to now believe that if the corona virus hit the stock market earlier that DT would have been convicted?"

    I'm sorry...I stopped after reading, "...I am thinking."

    I realize then that you understood a joke.

    I know that the deaths and economic loss caused by the virus from China that China failed to contain has caused death and economic loss to millions of Americans and their families.

    Yo, Nordberg...

    ...what in the name of the gods has Earl ever said that lead you to think he might also know Trump mishandled anything?

    If Trump told Earl that he wanted to take a dump on Earl's living room floor, Earl would probably ask, "Would you like a blow job while doing that?"
