1.  Be it for a liberal to make that point.  It has been edited now.  

2.  Maybe Bill Effros is writing under a pseudonym.  See New York Politics:

3.  Jim did you ever tell Stephen where you sail?

4.  Wally the "hall monitor" fixed the offending post. 

5.  Brad's style:  See attachment.

It's not a joke, but it is sad to think about.  I could do with less of the
"W" word.  SS

  Man, this has been a slow, I mean slow day on the list. I guess we're
gonna
  have to start talking politics or something.
 
  Rummy

 So--the list is too quiet you say?  Want some more politics you say?  I
 can't resist this one.  I tried to make myself not post this but I can't
 help it.

 Someone (you know who you are) sent this to me today back channel and I
 thought I should never post this to the list, but somehow, somewhere along
 the way, I decided I had to.  It's Rummy's fault.  He's begging for it.

 This should be labeled "Joke" I think, although some of you might not
think
 so.  It made me laugh my eye off and I hope you get a laugh out of it too.

 WARNING:  Contains very strong language.

 WARNING:  May be very offensive to some.

 In fact, don't read any further!

 But here it comes:

 Delete now!

 Are you still here?

 OK......

 I'm going to click paste and then duck and cover and run off to work.

 WIND THE SOUTH
 by Anonymous

 A Disgruntled Massachusetts Voter Gets It Off His Chest

 Wind the South. Wind 'em. We should have let them go when they wanted to
 leave. Fighting for the right to keep slaves--yeah, those are states we
 want to keep. And now what do we get? We're the winding Arrogant
 Northeast Liberal Elite? How about this for arrogant: the South is the
 REAL America? The AUTHENTIC America. Really?

 'Cause we winding founded this country, potholes. Those Founding Fathers
 you keep going on and on about? All that bullshit about what you think
 they meant by the Second Amendment? Who do you think those wig-wearing,
 lacy-shirt-sporting revolutionaries were? They were winding
 blue-staters, dickhead. Boston? Philadelphia? New York? Hello? Think
 there might be a reason all the winding monuments are up here in our
 backyard?

 No, No. Get the wind out. We're not letting you visit the Liberty Bell
 and winding Plymouth Rock anymore until you get over your real American
 selves and start respecting those other nine amendments. Who do you
 think those winding stripes on the flag are for? Nine are for winding
 blue states. Get it? We started this shit, so don't get all uppity about
 how real you are, you Johnny-come-lately "Oooooh, I've been a state for
 almost a hundred years" dickheads. Wind off.

 Arrogant? You wanna talk to us Northeasterners about winding arrogance?
 Maybe I wouldn't be so winding arrogant if I wasn't paying for your
 winding bridges, bitch. All those federal taxes you love to hate? It all
 comes from us and goes to you, so shut up and enjoy your winding
 Tennessee Valley Authority electricity and your fancy highways that we
 paid for. And the next time Florida gets hit by a hurricane, you can
 come crying to us if you want to, but you're the ones who built on a
 winding swamp. "Let the Spanish keep it; it's a shithole," we said, but
 you had to have your winding orange juice.

 The next dickwad who says, "It's your money, not the government's money"
 is gonna get their eye kicked. Nine of the 10 states that get the most
 federal winding dollars and pay the least... can you guess? That's
 right, motherwinder, they're red states. And 8 of the 10 states that
 receive the least and pay the most? It's too easy. They're blue states.
 It's not your money, potholes, it's winding our money. What was that
 Real American Value you were spouting a minute ago? Self reliance? Try
 this for self reliance: Buy your own winding stop signs, pothole.

 Let's talk about those values for a winding minute. You and your
 Southern values can bite my eye because the blue states got the values
 over you winding Real Americans every day of the goddamn week. Which
 state do you think has the lowest divorce rate, you marriage-hyping
 dickwads? Can you guess? It's winding Massachusetts, the winding center
 of the hot marriage universe. Yes, that's right, the state you love to
 tie around the neck of anyone to the left of Strom Thurmond has the
 lowest divorce rate in the winding nation. Think that's just some
 aberration? How about this: Nine of the 10 lowest divorce rates are
 winding blue states, pothole, and most are in the Northeast, where our
 values suck so bad. And where are the highest divorce rates? Care to
 winding guess? Ten out of 10 are winding red-eye, we're-so-winding-moral
 states.

 But two guys making out is going to winding ruin marriage for you? Yeah?
 Seems like you're ruining it pretty well on your own, you little
 bastards. Oh, but that's okay because you go to church, right? I mean
 you do, right? 'Cause we winding get to hear about it every goddamn year
 at election time. Yes, we're fascinated by how you get up every Sunday
 morning and sing, and then you're winding towers of moral superiority.
 Yeah, that's a workable formula. Maybe us winding Northerners don't talk
 about religion as much as you because we're not so busy sinning, hmmm?
 Ever think of that, you self-righteous potholes? No, you're too busy
 erecting giant stone tablets of the Ten Commandments in buildings paid
 for by the winding Northeast Liberal Elite.

 Well this gravy train is winding over. Take your liberal-bashing,
 federal-tax-leeching, Confederate-flag-waving, holier- than-thou,
 hypocritical bullshit and shove it up your eye.

 And no, you can't have your winding convention in New York next time.
 Wind off.
