in there anything about it being the opinion of the rest of the world because I don't know if it is or isn't and I doubt the rest of the world gives a flying fuck, but Catnip......it is odd that you only show up here to stir up dissent and shit and that you like to "cherry pick" through lots of comments  coming up with your justifications for your war.  I have been known to despise this kind of behavior.  If Ductape throws another one of his hostility provoking diaries up, all I have to do it sit here quietly and wait for you and Dove appear like magic and bless us with your presence.....I know, it's me imagining all this because I thrive on conspiracy theories.  Secondly, I don't think I'll be providing traffic on your blog....everybody has their priorities.  Thirdly, I went to go cool off and watch Lamont and Joe debate and then watch someone from the WSJ give me his unslanted version I'm certain of who won, then I went to pick wild blackberries on the dam before the sun went down and then we ate them until my sons tummy had black juices running down the front, then we cleaned his tummy off.........because I needed a little extra reality harvested from living a real life in my day today.

it is odd that you only show up here to stir up dissent and shit and that you like to "cherry pick" through lots of comments  coming up with your justifications for your war.

Yes, that is a common opinion around here despite the fact that I have posted some non-controversial diaries and made comments here that were not meant to "stir up dissent and shit". But those don't count because they don't fit into your little theory and that is what it is: a theory.

And, just which "war" are you referring to, Tracy? I certainly don't have a war going on except the one that I'm involved in daily with Bushco. If you think I'm somehow involved in any other so-called war, you are mistaken.

I checked out DT's diary because it was interesting, as was the discussion. I visit many blogs and leave comments there every day. I do a news & views roundup each nite because I like to know what's going on with the blogs I read and alert my readers to interesting topics. I'm certainly not going to apologize for that.
