In reply to the discussion: My question is now that we know without a doubt there will be no elections or at least not [View all]Eliot Rosewater
(34,290 posts)35. And I am so tired of certain people taking my words out of context

This happens all the time.
Of course Im not talking about you and I know you know that but just in case.
