Don't you folks know Hugo Chavez has threatened freedom worldwide by refusing to renew the license of a TV station that tried to oust him, the sheer nerve and gall of that horrible dictator! So what if your constitution is being trashed, Chavez is the threat! After all, as Bush said, it's just "A God damned piece of paper" anyway, so chill out and get with the pogrom. Sheesh... Aww, who cares?

I often don't have the time to take on michael every time he posts here. Moreover, he's so stupid that it's often not worth my time, even when I have it. I do it mainly when the mood strikes me, or when he's so blatantly stupid (such as on the Guatanamo suicide thread where he refers to some other poster's shortcomings in grammar and spelling, while making some errors himself) that I can't resist. #68 Again, thanks for the advice, JPark.

I don't really think he is dangerous. He goes online to make himself feel tough, yet he only picks fights with women. That is not meant to be offensive (from me), he thinks women are inferior. The guy has some real insecurity issues but he couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag so he wouldn't even bring himself to physically stand up to a woman. Poor f^cker.

He will take an occasional shot at me but if you, as a female, stand up to him, he will take it as an insult to his manhood (which I am guessing is minimal) and will stalk you. He would be right at home in the 50’s. Comment by JPark — Thanks for your concern, JPark, but michael usually disappears when I cite him on his bad grammar and spelling, or ask him what luminaries went to his supposedly superior private high school. (It took him three months to answer that one with "I don't know.") In real life, I have been stalked when I was still single. The police wouldn't do anything about it until I managed to get a photo of the man and his van. Watch out Lora, he will become infatuated with you like he has with Zooey.

Taxation without representation does not make an appearance in the Constitution. However, that was exactly the reason for the Revolutionary War. Also, DC is not a state. That disenfranchises 500,000 people. Are you ok with that? 500,000 people not actually having representation? It doesn't seem very American. Actually, m12, you are right.
