    You said to me:

    Your implication was that I approved of teachers lying. I never said, or even implied this. Thus, a lie.

    Hey, Bob. If you defend the fraud, then you approve of it.

    Did you mean to say Ohio or Indiana? Because this is not happening in Minnesota--there is a Republican controlled Senate and Republican controlled House and the governor, Evacuatin' Mark Dayton, is a Dem. who won by the slimmest of margins.

    Minnesota, land of Humphrey, Mondale, Wellstone, and Franken, would have been an all Republican run state had not a RINO, Tom Horner, run for governor as an independent, thus siphoning off votes from the conservative Repub running and costing the election.

    Everything in life is not black or white. People usually do what is necessary to protect their own interest, they find a way to justify almost any behavior if they feel it is necessary. Very few people are cannibals, yet in a life and death situation, people often justify such behavior to say alive.

    Likewise, just like our corporate masters justify sending jobs overseas, since it saves money regardless of the devastation it does to the worker here, the workers justify certain actions to keep what little they have.

    They do not need to justify it. They do not have an obligation to anyone here or there. There is nothing to justify.

    Do you condone or reject such behavior?

    Neither. It's there decision to make, not mine. I don't have to take a stand over every situation in everyone else's life. I have my hands full with my own problems.

    Bingo.

    Case closed. You condone lying.

    I guarantee you one thing: a tea party rally that employed the same tactics--RS would wet himself out of rage.

    Um, RS....Pardon me, your intellectual dishonesty is showing...

    You said:

    I live in Minnesota and consider myself in tune with current events here. I've not heard of any democrats running from a legislative fight. Which democratic lawmakers are you referring to?

    Robert, you wouldn't happen to be secretly harboring a couple of senators from Wisconsin in your home now would you? Go ahead and admit it. There's no law in Alabama against harboring political fugitives from up north who are running from thier responsibilities.

    Show me where I've lied on this thread, and I'll not post on it again. You can't. I haven't. You're looking foolish by stating otherwise.

    Robert, you're really making yourself look silly. Bow out before you further embarass yourself.

    I'll ask Robert again: Is it OK to lie about being sick, and fraudulently obtain a doctor's excuse, in order to protest at a rally?

    Is it helpful to go back and forth calling each other liars?

    Not calling RS a liar.

    I'm asking him to show where I've lied.

    He cannot.
