you are attacking a long time poster who has a history of posting really thoughtful posts about the Bush family whether you agree with them or not. What else am I supposed to conclude? And I don't give a crap how long you've been here - sounds like you're trying to pull rank or something. And you are sticking up for a poster who has been here 3 months and has posted (ETA almost) as many times as I have in 8 years. Ironic, no?

Why not just post, thoughtfully if you are capable, "I don't agree with you, Octafish, that the dinner meant anything because blahblahblah." Back in the day, which I'm sure you remember as a poster that goes back to 2001, we used to have long discussions on Octafish's posts with actual information and thoughtful opinions - not name-calling.
