QUINCY AND ADAMS COUNTY POLITICS: THE "DUMBASS" FACTOR
Lot of hot, local issues being discussed on some blogs in the basin. God Bless and go to it!
A great many of the comments lately seem to be somewhere between or beyond "Dumbass!" "Everybody who works for the government is a vile and lazy ass" and "You Suck!".
I had kinda hoped the the internet would elevate public discourse a little higher than this. Sometimes somebody earns the odd "Dumbass!" (there was a guy not too long ago who thought John Edwards married the Heinz Ketchup money--there "Dumbass" was just a pronoun.) but for the most part, I see some room for improvement in the basin blogosphere.
When the heiroglyphs on the Mayan walls were read, it led to very positive thoughts about their society and learning. The blogosphere are our cave and temple walls. Are we going to leave for future sociologists and anthropologists "You Suck, Dumbass!" Geez, I hope not!

Your blackberry isn't on the list !
You may be missing 90% of the inside JOKE between the "war parties"
But if we SPELLED out the inside joke it wouldn't be as funny to all of us.
See Gore 08 as example
And somedays the BRASH at parties we all know beats standing up at the league of women votes open forums and placing said folks on the line.
For other references SEE "Mel Brooks 1001.34 subpart 7 "
Speaking of Cave walls .....
See Mel Brooks "History of the World"

Hahahahahaha!
You guys are sooooo funny.
It's just "people in the know" having an inside joke?
Sorry, I'm not buying it.
It's a bunch of infantile minds with nothing at all to offer the debate spewing their Asperger's symptoms all over those who would like to actually debate issues with those who disagree. Unfortunately it can't happen effectively in the blogosphere because there are too many "dumbasses".
Good post, Umr.
