=================================
Hello mark!

31 May 10 15:39, you wrote to me:

 RC>> Except that in the case of the individual in question, as you saw

 RC>> multiply that by his entire tenure in this network.

When it gets used against them or becomes unbelievable, boring or not germane
to the discussion.

 RC>> I have longed held that in a venue in which there are no face to

 ml> not everyone believes as you do WRT their life's story...

Only bleeding (bleating) hearts like yourself would play fast and lose with
such trivia in a written messaging network. Probably the worst form of social
communication there is...

or perhaps the mud (shit) gets deeper or thicker?

 RC>> So once one opens these doors, the cat has gotten out.

 RC>> He did not need to tell everyone of his experiences with the law,
 RC>> who he blames for being in that position etc etc..

Its called contrasting Mark, when establishing or defending a position, hence
why Wayne should not have openned those doors..

and why havent you told us "all there is to know"??

 RC>> The point here is Richard, is that this man should not be casting

 ml> no one should be casting any judgements on others because no matter

 ml> be...

Well I was Judged and convicted by Wayne because I didnt take his angle about
the Iraq war, among other things from Dubya.

You tell me I shouldnt be judging him, why is he allowed to judge me?

 ml> your attitude about those who have landed in jail for one reason or
 ml> another is rather telling... and truly sad in a way... especially
 ml> since it conveys the attitude that you are somehow better than they...
 ml> that, in itself, is at least one thing that places you in that
 ml> spotlight of non-purity...

When it comes to contrasting oneself, based on the biographies he has posted,
because I was persecuted by him for not holding his views on Iraq, you bet ya
sweet bippee, I am, as are other, far better than he.

Remember, all we have to go on in here is what others write, and Wayne freely
chose to throw out for public consumption, all the sordid details of a life
that was not full of wise choices. You cannot complain about the consequences
of doors Wayne chose to open, no one made him do it.

If you dont want your neighbors seeing you and your wife nekkid, then shut the
curtains.
