I can't believe this thread turned into an arguement about typos.

News Flash: LL makes typos. Doctors have Determined She's Illiterate.

For crying out loud. Typos don't make people illiterate, and perfectly corrected blogs don't make people genius. This emphasis on spelling and editing have created a nation of people that think they can't write.

It's tough, isn't it? I try to avoid posint highly political retoric, but this was just to funny, and not that political....right?huh?

Posting, that was a tough one to figure out. Oh, and to should have been too. Oh, I missed the h in rhetoric. Yeah, oops. Guess I'm dumb.

I wonder who really does have the best spelling skills? The right or the left? The best penmanship? The most legible cursive? How 'bout this, who has the best math skills? Who can climb a tree faster? Looks better in a thong? So many questions! I wonder if liberals or conservatives are more fun in bedroom? Hmmm...

I do think that spelling and grammar is pretty important to writing a reply. If Bush spoke like he's from gutter and with heavy words, would he get voted in this country's highest position? I think not.

But there is a line where it's just pointless because it would be nitpicking to pick on that little misspelling or that grammar mistake.

Back to article... IMHO, no president have ever had a lack of people deriding the president during the term or after that. I doubt that it will change any time soon.
You doubt me? Just look at political comics and more.

Half my family is French currently living in France and Luxembourg. DOn't act like you have the inside scoop with me.ll

Leaping Lizards, I'm not suggesting all French hate Americans (sorry if my post came off that way). I have, however, been to France many times, in both a military and civilian capacity, over the course of the last 25 years. There exits, in my opinion, an enormous amount of anti-Americanism per capita in that country then vise-versa. While I'm sure it's a vocal minority, it can be highly visible. I've seen visiting US warships protested by our supposed "allies" (I've never seen that here in Norfolk, Virginia when a French warship visits). I've also see Americans turned away from French businesses there, just because they were Americans. So I stand by my statement, completely. Once again, I'm sure there are hundreds of thousands of French that like or are indifferent to the US, but I have never personally witnessed staged contempt in the US for another country as I have abroad towards the US, despite whether a republican or democratic was president. The point leading to my words in which you quoted, clearly meant the overwhelming majority of US citizens can care less about French politics, should we not expect the same? Last time I looked the EU was a world power, so I have little sympathy. And, before you post, I have nothing personal against the French, it's a beautiful place, and I have met some nice people there. I was just shocked by certain unexpected observations over the years. So please don’t act like you know what I’ve seen with my own two eyes.

I am only looking for some cultural sensitivity. Sorry about the harsh comment. Reading it now, I came off a sassy

My perspective is different because people very close to my heart live in France and Luxembourg. I do disagree with you on one point.

an enormous amount of anti-Americanism per capita in that country then vise-versa

I don't think this is true, and you rightly stated it as your opinion. I can accept that.

I have never personally witnessed staged contempt in the US for another country as I have abroad towards the US

I am so sorry your experiences reflect this. Like in the US, the population there is varied and divided. I hope you can have a positive experience in the future there. It's such a beautiful place, with warm people, great food, rich wine, and plenty of sweets for the tummy and the eyes. I hope what you see with your two changes next time you go.

So please don’t act like you know what I’ve seen with my own two eyes

Didn't mean to. I'm just a little touchy on the France subject, as you can well tell

Good grief... it's like any other joke. If you think it's funny, LAUGH. If you don't think so, GET OVER IT. Leaping Lizard, I've agreed with most of the things you've said on this thread, and I've been a bit ashamed of the behavior of the Right-leaning fellows on this blog, including JU's signature left, our own dear Draginol. Imagine, insulting the intelligence of an entire group based only on whether they're liberal or conservative. That's nothing short of pathetic.

And buy the way, mos rites cant spill ether.

LL, no harm, no foul. This can be a difficult format to convey thoughts, what sounds proper in the writers mind, sounds completely different to the reader. I'm a very easy-going guy in the real world. My original post was intended (partially) as a parody, with a sprinkle of life experience. Thanks for understanding; I really don't want to upset anyone. Have a great holiday.
