My response to your post was very 'gentlemanly'. <B>Too bad you aren't a gentleman, </B>apparently. <BR/><BR/>I did not attack your country, I attacked the way that they responded to our aid. If you had read the post with the supposed open-mindedness that you claim to have, it could have been a discussion instead of a childish rant on your part.<BR/><BR/>The problem that I have with aid to Africa is simple: we can't afford it when our own people are suffering. Sending corporate or voluntary funds is one thing, but sending taxpayers' dollars is another.<BR/><BR/>What does my marital status (which you are incorrect about) have to do with my positions? How do you know I am white? How do you know I am racist? Are you posting this so that you can attempt to intimidate me or cause others to invalidate my opinions? Are you so determined to smear me? I am not racist, but have no cause to have to justify myself to you. <BR/><BR/><B>I had assumed<I> you </I>weren't racist, but I was apparently wrong - since you are so quick to pull the racist card.</B><BR/><BR/>Do you wish to re-word this post? I hope once you rethink this, you will modify it, at the very least. I had believed you to be an intelligent man. I hope you prove me correct.Saur♥Krauthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01160101729455178399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11648048.post-1121117485349321642005-07-11T21:31:00.000+00:002005-07-11T21:31:00.000+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Saur♥Krauthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01160101729455178399noreply@blogger.com
