Whatever you say Bill. You're such an oracle of truth and virtue, I guess
we should follow your lead like lemmings.

So, serving at your pleasure, let's see if I can go find some nice person to
buttsniff throughout the day.

jps,
Can you point out one time you ever added anything material to this NG?
When was the last time you added anything to a topic concerning inboard
boats and systems?

The only thing I have seen you do is cut and paste from political news
reports.

As far as Harry is concerned, while Harry is completely off base on some
issues and enjoys telling people that they are trash, he is completely
honest that he is here to hurl insults to the right wing. Harry is not an
idiot, he knows that there is nothing said in this NG of any importance,
nor
does he believe anything he posts will make a difference. You actually
believe that your posts are of importance. That is really sad.

Most of posts here are outdrive, outboard related. It's not my
expertise
and I don't like giving people half assed advise. That's why I stick to
inboard boats and systems and politics. I'm trying to teach you
something
about the latter but you only seem interested in spewing personal ****.

And as far as monopoly of idiots on either side of the political
spectrum,
I
can't disagree. You however, add absolutely nothing but invective and
chatter and make no material points whatsoever.

Are you related to that guy who chased Harry for months posting "shut up
Harry" messages?

jps, someone once asked you while you bother to come to rec.boats
since
all
you do is post political crap. You said you enjoy reading the boating
stuff, but did not feel you were qualified to respond to most of the
topics,
so you enjoy the political arguments. If you don't like that, you
should
not have said it.

As far as the idiots, neither party or political leaning have a
monopoly
on
idiots, it just so happens that you and basseater are two of the
bigger
ones
in the NG. I am not bitching about the politics, I realized after
reading
this NG for one week that long after I get bored of this group, the
political posts will continue.

Man, the attributes you ascribe to people are astounding. You've
admitted
the same for yourself, I don't recall having admitted to lurking.
You
just
keep saying it though, and the RWers in the group will follow along
just
like Saddam and the terrorists are in cahoots.

I enjoy the boating related topics but have to admit I'm generally
more
interested in inboard vessels and systems than the outdrive or
outboard
driven boat.

You seem to enjoy the political **** as much as anyone here, so why
the
bitching? And, if you're really interested in "tweaking the idiots"
you
should change sides.

jps, you have admitted that you are a lurking when discussing
boats,
you
have also admitted that you come here just to give the right wing
a
rash
of
****. By your own admission you are here to turn rec.boats from
a
boating
forum to a political forum. Stand proud for what you are. The
only
person
I have seen who regularly discusses off topic crap who also
contributes
to
boating topics is Chuck Gould and the John, the Poco Loco dude.
The
rest
of
those who post political ****, come here to post political ****.
Now,
I
come here just to tweak the idiots. ; )

It's a shame, since a few (very few) of them know a bit about
boats.

Oh for goodness sakes Wilbur, you know better than that!

Could those of you who insist on posting off-topic messages please put
something in the subject (typically, "OT") to indicate it's not
related to the newsgroup.
Thanks!

I have to agree. Especially for political drivel. Not using OT simply
makes a mess for the rest of us to sort out.
