Radio Paradise

The Koch brothers would hire lobbyists and ad agencies to get people in other states to leave their yachts at the marina.

After sacrificing a few orphans on an altar to Mammon, of course.

Wow, that was so profound of you

Let me ask you a question that I really don't need the answer to but others here might be interested in. In light of your amply demonstrated smug self-righteousness often put on display here, is your 'popularity' . . . . something you have to work on constantly or is it a natural expression of the person you are ?

Remember that I don't need the answer but others here might be interested & remember too that you can fool some of the people some of the time . . . .

If this had come from almost any other member here I would feel a little bad. But I'm pretty comfortable with my record of sympathy, desire to help others, history of solid actions in doing so, and rational level headed thought that supports all of this.

I'm liked and respected in every community in which I participate. People don't generally think of me as whakced/reactionary/angry/unreasonable. Can you say the same?

With all due respect, this was embarrassing to read.
