Frako's Substantive Response
No doubt this will come as a surprise to all, but I'm nominating our foreign friend Frako for POM. I didn't agree to a thing in Frako's response. However, Frako's early response to this new thread was articulated well, addressing all of Chuck's cited points in a sensible, substantive and thought provoking manner. ABE: Oops; forgot.

Re: Frako's Substantive Response
Hi Buz, Thanks for using the POTM thread. Could you let us know which thread and most importantly which post you are actually nominating, preferably with a link to it.

Re: Frako's Substantive Response
I was editing my message while you were posting yours. Nevertheless thanks for the heads up. Abe: When I went back to edit, I scrolled from the top, assuming that my message was the last. Perhaps you had already advised before I began editing, looking at the timing. My apologies for the need to explain, but don't want members to think I was not being honest as to the timing. Edited by Buzsaw, : As noted

Crashfrog, at "The Awesome Republican Primary Thread"
Author: Crashfrog Forum: Coffee House Thread: The Awesome Republican Primary Thread Message #: 663 The true perspective of the Obama "failed presidency" (or something like that). Moose Professor, geology, Whatsamatta U Evolution - Changes in the environment, caused by the interactions of the components of the environment. "Do not meddle in the affairs of cats, for they are subtle and will piss on your computer." - Bruce Graham "The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness." - John Kenneth Galbraith "Yesterday on Fox News, commentator Glenn Beck said that he believes President Obama is a racist. To be fair, every time you watch Glenn Beck, it does get a little easier to hate white people." - Conan O'Brien "I know a little about a lot of things, and a lot about a few things, but I'm highly ignorant about everything." - Moose

It's certainly unexpected for me to get a POTM nod from Moose of all people! Thanks, Moose, seriously. Glad you liked it.

Yes, I will second that. Yes, I am as disappointed as others, such as Rahvin, in the achievements of the Obama administration. But, as crashfrog points out, much of this is due to a spineless Democratic party in both the house and senate. Thanks crashfrog, for laying out the details. Jesus was a liberal hippie
