Mar 2015

I could say I am a volcano and an expert on lava. Such is the internet.

But, in reality, I was a lawyer for decades. I know why government officials have private files and why they destroy them.

I mean, do you have any doubts what is on the 15 minutes Richard Nixon deleted from his taping system? I don't either.

The first thing I learned as a lawyer is to not be so in love with your case that you can't see the other side's arguments.

Similarly, one should never be so partisan one cannot see flaws in your own candidate.

I'll support Hillary in the general.

But if I can get rid of her in the primary, it's better for the party and the country.

I'm not talking about the OP I'm taking about the post where he says... Agschmid Mar 2015 #86
I know. HERPEVA insulted morningfog personally for nothing more than posting an OP, which is merrily Mar 2015 #88
There is a big difference between the insults which were said. Agschmid Mar 2015 #89
Yes. The first was unprovoked and unwarranted. The second was justified. merrily Mar 2015 #90
So when someone insults someone by comparing them to Herpes... Agschmid Mar 2015 #91
no, morningfog said the screen name HERVEPA looks like the word "herpes" merrily Mar 2015 #95
