Herb

The disdain comment came from John, not me. There does seem to be a grain of
truth in it, though.

My comment to Brad was that the race card in this post, or string,
originated in your comments on the election, which concentrated on the race
issue and the perception of it by diffferent sectors in society.
As to who thrust what on whom, I bow out, er back out, er, can't seem to get
out no matter what I write, during the pre-election fervor, I do not know ,
not do I care. THIS  post brought it up.

I find the race card passe' as the real issue on the table for me and my
family and my business is the behaviour of the free market socialists who
are reaching into our pockets. I vote 'shoot Hank Paulson while Bernanke
watches'.

Been sailing much lately?
