Very true.

However some people's idea of an agreeable person,
is a person who agrees with them.

While others know so little and know it so fluently.

Still others never want to hurt anyone. They just
feel an obligation.

Polite conversation is rarely either.

//Given the predilection of the left whinge Teachers union to use school time for indoctrination rather than education, this crowd of left whinge clowns want to take us back to 1984.//

Of course. Teaching kids about the history of racial oppression outside of their history classes is exactly like a dystopian totalitarian dictatorship, except for the 'dystopian', 'totalitarian' and 'dicatorship' bits.

I feel there should be a corollary to Godwin's law that covers Orwell's masterpiece.

Dear Foxy,

I generally agree more with Steele Reduxe, Paul1405 and you than I do with Shadow Minister, Josephus, runner and ttbn. However, if I had the life experiences of Shadow Minister, Josephus, runner and ttbn I might agree more with them. I don’t know. I shouldn’t be preaching, and I was wrong for doing so.

Paul,

It is the sign of the intellectually feeble to lash out with ad hominems when embarrassed. I genuinely feel sorry for you and apologise for exposing your litery weakness and wish that you could have got the "special" education you deserved.

Toni,

For god's wind your neck in you sound like a professional "offenderati". The 1984 was a quip in response to Paul which few on this site would have understood. However, the censorious left wish to close down any debate on their dogma not unlike the thought police in Orwell's novel.

Today's left whingers believe that everyone is equal but they are more equal than everyone else. (animal farm)

Dear David F.,

We've all only got our own experiences to go by I guess.
However, that doesn't mean that we shouldn't open up our
minds to try and understand things from another's
perspective - and that is something you have always done
on this forum. I have learned a great deal from you over
the years. I was wrong to be flippant.

Wow, Shadow is a literary genius, trying to regurgitate that tied old hackneyed quote of George Orwell's with "everyone is equal but they are more equal than everyone else", attributing it to Orwell's famous book 1984. Of course he gets it wrong, totally wrong (probably never read the book). His dumb attempt at paraphrasing is totally incorrect. In George Orwell's, other famous book 'ANIMAL FARM' you will find; " All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others".

Shadow, try reading, you may even learn something!
