A,

It's my wife so I call the shots, not you.

I overlooked #279....

No more....

A_FRIEND,

Prior to your posting regularly that I see, I put down my foot on people talking about my wife (not that it always did any good)

Don't.

Hey...I won't respond to you if that's how it goes...I don't care.

A,

#274 "just for you, BJ boi"

Muslims? Do what? Head jerk...whiplash...

Eff,

Not that its so important people believe I'm into men, I'll respond to you.

As God as my witness, the summer of 1975 I was friends with Leo Matlovich until he was processed out in Oct that year. I was in the Navy and he was in the Air Force. We met at a gay bar in Norfolk. When we were friends I didn't know what was going on until he was on the cover of Time magazine Sep that year. Read up on him for yourself. He became a mini-celebrity of the gay cause.

I was also processed out that year for homosexuality. This was pre DADT. Simply gays were forbidden in the military. By the 70's things were laxing up a bit but still not good. Still lived in fear of losing your career.

After that, I ended up living with the Pastor of a MCC church in a large city not yet dedicated. Nothing physical. Just lived with him in a spare room. The church was dedicated while I lived there and became official.

I ended up starting college using GI Bill and moved where I am now. One month later I met my wife and we became friends but nothing physical. Just friends for quite a long time. The rest of the story is personal. Now we've been married over 40 years. I don't regret marrying her. That's more than a lot of guys can say about their wife.

The letter A at the top means I'm replying to you.

Then my comment follows below.

Refer to your post #267.

You informed me I have zero sense of humor.

And then replied to yourself, "Noted"

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you got confused in the thread.

A,

At least I don't reply to myself.

A,

"That has to be one of the most ridiculous justifications I've ever heard: forcing anti-gay churches to perform gay weddings at gun point."

You never heard of a shot gun wedding?

When you catch your son in the heat of passion with another man.

Times have changed.

Relax....I'm just tuggin' your leg.

Bbq,

I think the tariff rebate distraction and ACA should be handled as separate topics.

This is an ACA thread unless someone knows the connection.

A,

"as you said earlier, "build something new" AND "we take it (ACA) off of life support."

Hey...I'm being diplomatic here.

Don't blow my cover.

You're getting awfully close to sounding like a troll.

I think you don't know the difference, and that's unfortunate.

Smoofy,

Don't get me wrong.

Ground up fixes where needed.

Not patches.

Dan,

"Is that your answer, or do you prefer democracy?"

I prefer solutions.

Snoofy,

Give me time to think...sheesh.

Snoofy,

Stop gap will include cost control measures or no deal.

Immediately create a dedicated, bipartisan Task Force for the sole purpose of identifying costs. 90 days Task Force must publish a report.

This isn't that hard. Just get the ball rolling and everyone on board.

The goal isn't to repeal ACA, but instead to right the wrongs and fill the holes.

Snoofy,

I believe a stop gap bill is the logical next step.

6 months... no further extensions written into it.

Snoofy,

"And what about the tens of millions of people that depend on ACA for health insurance?"

I would suggest dem leadership take Trump serious and get going.

A,

I'm strictly talking about his words.

I'm well versed on the history of TCP/IP and networking technology.

Of course Gore didn't create the internet. I'm MCSE requiring I learned about DNS, DHCP, routing, protocols, network layers, Active Directory and so on. Gore was hardly part of designing this complicated technology.

I made a joke about Gore but you were serious and said to me, "100% of your self-important ------- was wrong". I decided you're a troll and will be killfiled unless you point out something wrong in my ACA summary I researched. You said 100% but I only want one small thing. I could probably do it myself if I dug in harder.

Got for it. I don't want to kill file you but if you're just here to troll, I will.

A,

Read #203.

Are you and Dan the same poster?

He lies too.

A,

I said "create", not "invent".

Dan,

"Time to go on record against it. Remember how easy this was to condemn when you thought Democrats were doing it?"

Trump is talking about a tariff dividend.

I was talking about subsidizing health care.

Once again, you're adding hay to beef stew. After all cows eat it. Close enough.

A_FRAUD,

"I'll give you one day to come back with information or you're kill filed."

1999 CNN interview, Al Gore said:

"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."

I fulfilled my end. Now your turn.

A_FRAUD,

You were serious and I was joking.

A,

You left off Al Gore.

He created the Internet.

A,

"No wonder your wife kicked you out of bed last night."

Never happens.

She luuuuuvvvves me long time.

A,

"Women's right to vote"

But she doesn't have the right to privacy in the restroom or showers or fairness in sports.

You know that's weird....right?
