t saunters back to FB

I was very close to the same thing but figured it wouldn't do more than throw fuel onto the fire at his point.

O HAI TIMOTHY MCVEIGH

But wasn't he a "I'm an Amerrikan, and the Amerrikan guvmint don't have no business doing stuff in Amerrika!" not a "Jesus loves me, and he wants me to kill you!" brand of stupidity?

Okay, Eric Rudolph then. But I would say that McVeigh is definitely part of a certain Christianist strain.

I'm not necessarily all about picking a fight with Sandy, though I disagree with her. We only know each other because she sat in front of me in all my classes for four years of high school because of our last names. We're not friends, I don't give a crap about her. I just feel like I let her off too easy, because of my inner despair over my friend's mom, and the possible real-life ramifications of not giving her conservative cray-cray bullcrap special treatment because of who she is to people close to me.

What I am a little worried about is that one of our fellow high school classmates (who is AWESOME, and whom I do consider a friend) lost her husband in the 9/11 attacks, and she hasn't piped in. So I'm trying to maybe just let it die down, even though that's not in my nature, normally.

sorry amyth. I do not argue on fB, so far. And I haven't had any comments that were super annoying. i have hidden a few people , mostly because most of their comments were about their religion, which I was bored with.( old high school friends) I have one friend from high school that I would hide, but her daughter and other people smack her down -- and she talks about things on FB that she really should, so I am fascinated.

sending the ma~~~ to your sistere Connie.

and to Joe

and hooray for Gris !

One of my acquaintances from elementary school, and friends on FB, WORKS FOR FOXNEWS. For real! But he never, ever says a word on my wall, and I never say a word on his. The only reason we friended each other is because we got into a discussion over our second grade class picture, and I said that it was nerdy and cool that he was wearing a Star Trek shirt for the picture. Next thing I know, I found out a whole lot more about him than I ever wanted to! But since we keep our laundry in our respective baskets, as it were, there hasn't been any reason to defriend.

Congrats, Gris!

Shit. I wrote a big ole comment, but hopefully it's not too shit stirring. I will delete it if you want, Amy.

Nah, that's all right. :) It needed to be said.

Amys/Aimees have each other's backs!
