Ray,
As usual you don't know when to leave well enough alone. My post had
nothing to do with politics. Here was a case of someone coming to the
list to seek help in obtaining seeds to grow giant pumpkins. Did you
have anything constructive to offer...no. Instead you took a tasteless
shot. " I just couldn't help myself " Perhaps this mean spirited
attitude explains why the 'WPC' is where it is today.
As an American I defend your right to free speech but this has always
been a forum for and about growing giant pumpkins. The man who made the
original request for seeds has nothing to do with our political issues.
Your reply was and remains tasteless and your lack of an apology to
him will always reflect on you poorly.

You know what Bart - many of us Americans have a right to free speech. This
may not be the place to speak out about the direction our country is
headed but I've put in my time defending it and I'm not in love with the sham
that's being fostered by many of a different persuasion. And by the way,
I've sent many seeds to Kenya and they have been grown over there by friends
for many years. The fact that Mr. Obama was, by his own admission a
British Citizen by birth does NOT allow him to be the President of the United
States of America, according to our republic's constitution. You can call it
tasteless but many citizens of this great land feel the same way. I'm sorry
if it was a little too sensitive for the discussion group, but the truth is
the truth. And, I just couldn't help myself (which sounds like something
politicians do all the time! And, I'm sorry for that also!).
