80. Yes, it is poking fun.

And, cui. I am far from stupid. I never said that it was directed at me as a person. You were talking about the BOG. We both know that.

" And why are you taking it so personally? How do you know it's towards you? Do you mean to say that you are someone who needs to read the quotes and take in their meaning?"

It's done by many here. Remember the thread where an OP posted they were banned from a group. LOL, everyone jumped on the thread to despair at how awful the BOG and HoF are. Yup, so quick to condemn, yet

it was the environmental group for gawds sakes! They are a climate change denier, and blocked from that group. Ooopsie! How dare a group block them. Guess they never bothered to read the SOP that the admins allow as they do in all the groups.

"But the BOG likes being the bubble. ....Does no one any good and it hurts democracy. You are just buying into the game TPTB want us to play so they can get away with their bs and have people supporting it as it gets enacted, just because "their guy" is doing it."

Oh give me a break.

So any one that posts in the BOG or rec's a thread is to you in total lockstep with this President? A bad bad BOGer. Yikes, you better have a talk with Skinner. He has reced posts there and does indeed support this President. Read the Sop's in the groups. There are rules that are to be followed here, we have a group where we can talk which has been given to us by the admins. So take it to Sinner as I have said to you before, he has said that the BOG stands and will continue to be allowed in GD. As for blocking a poster that never posted in a group, ummmm so sorry, you are so very wrong. You have to post in a group to get blocked.

Last response and then I am done. Many here support this President, it is far from blind support. Yet, like this President we are thoughtful calm and work through the issues. We do not set our hair on fire seeking every worst case scenario before a decision is made. Sadly many have done that here, the result was the opposite of all the issues they raised in thread after thread condemning this President.
