Don't really know if ANY of those statements are true and/or accurate. I might go so far as to say people on 285bound have very strong opinions, though. And aren't hesitant to express them - most of the time a prerequisite for logical, intelligent, discussion and debate.

Yep.... :thumbsup:
Look in the mirror....I think I'd drop dead if I ever saw a post of yoours that wasn't a nasty generalization about Republicans or conservatives.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Archer and LJ are just pissed off because they are not the Queen and King Bitch around here anymore... they have competition now.

A good example of you attacking some one who hasn't even posted anything yet in the thread. Do you think that makes you look smart? Intelligent? Witty? Wise? What is it...you just like attacking other posters for no reason?
I value the opinions I read here (with one or two very notable exceptions ). Even if I don't agree I generally see some point that I had not previously considered.
But I don't consider myself smart (or wise or intelligent) on current affairs. Just smart-ass. tongue:

You post on 285 Bound... you develop a persona... you create a body of opinions... you're Archer. You exist. I don't need you posting on a thread to bring you into a conversation. Just like President Obama. He don't have to post on a thread to be mentioned. What are you... special?

Well you have one thing right ....attacking another poster is one way to bring them into the conversation. I didnt realize you missed me so much. It's nice to be missed.
what have we really accomplished based on our posts other than give the appearance that:
a. we are excellent at retrieving information electronically
b. looking at the amount of posts some have - we have nothing better to do
c. we simply want to have our opinions read - because opinions are like ______ (chose) everone has one
This is all I know. GOP Liberals comes to mind. I swear whenever you run out of something intelligible to say you start name calling. Now that is stupid, in my view.
