Follow the leader!

I don’t need to know anyone on a personal basis.
I am not in your group or need to be.
It is my Freedom of Speech to comment as an individual. Online? I don’t need to agree or disagree to be here.

I have been through worst and need not hide under anyones skirt or be in a group. I can take as much as I dish out. If I resort to name calling in a straight form, I get moderated.

Capitalist, I know who I am. Don’t brag about who you are. Those who are known don’t need to brag about education or accomplishments. People know without having it flaunted in their face.

Michael: If you knew me personally as does Kolea, Michael G. and David, you would never ever apply the term “lemming” to me. The one thing that I do not ever do is follow the beaten path on any issue or subject.

FYI – I can outpitch and outhit you any day of the week even in my old-ish age. My father was signed by by the New York Giants two days before he received his draft notice for the Korean War. Unfortunately, his professional ball playing days ended after being wounded, but he stayed in baseball for the rest of his life first by coaching and later on by owning a Triple A baseball franchise.

Sorry, David, for going against your wishes, but calling me a “lemming”???

Lingle allowed into law a severely flawed cigarette tax bill – so the precedence for her to allow flawed bills to pass is readily established. We neednt actually argue whether the bill is or is not technically flawed, as that is ultimately fixable, Michael. If she even tries to use that one in a veto message, I hope the 444groups call BS.

You clearly do not know Blake Oshiro, because if you did, you would hold the same level of respect the rest of us, who actually do this for a living, hold for Blake.

Everyone else — let this twirp have his metaphores and his final words. It should be obvious to all what we are dealing with. Dave is right. Enough.

So, go ahead, Michael, center stage and the final word is yours, oh you brilliant little man you. Tell us how we all are youre right and we’re so wrong, how youre smarter than all of us, and how youre just the better batter.

Republicans…they are all alike.

Ok guys, enough with the strained baseball metaphors. Let’s please stick to the issue or move on to another one. Thanks.

That one came out of left field.

You are pitching strikes because NO ONE else is playing with you – so that is not pitching strikes that is just throwing balls at NO ONE.

I don’t need to only pitch, I play left field as well.
I am not the one who is worrying about a Veto or not.
As far as your team mates, who needs to worry about who I playing against. I’m not bit worried about being alone. If I pitch all strikes, who needs other players? Who lost? You can always step up to the plate. Casey Jones. 3 strikes and standing out. Never think a walk is because a pitcher is afraid that one will hit his pitch. Never came to my mind to be afraid. At least not for me.

The truth? Yours or everyone else’s? I don’t force anything anyones throat. There are those who willingly take it and then there are those who end with their foot in their mouth. I am speaking clearing.

I stated not attacked. If I attacked I would be have been moderated. Stated that lingle said wording. I read the Bill and it can be said in many ways. Your way, my way, each way. That is a, I think confusion on wording? Can be said in many ways or interpreted?

You may be playing Ball but not in the same Park I am. Different league. You are playing with a bunch of lemmings. One leads the others follow.

I don’t need backers to say I am right. I never said I was right. Your words. Your thinking.
Bad writing or bad thinking.
