He became tiresome in his constant carping and repetitive comments so I've stopped publishing them. When he was even doing it in the early hours of this morning it started to feel a little like obsession at best, stalking at worst.<br /><br />It's another unpleasant little tactic to shut people up when you've lost the argument, nobody likes being accused of hatred any more than they do of racism, sexism or xenophobia etc.Gregghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10323165429887622931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23662827.post-68006115246509878842011-05-10T12:16:41.689+01:002011-05-10T12:16:41.689+01:00Why the warning in the second paragraph Greg?

Politicians should say exactly what they believe, not what they think we want to hear.<br /><br />I've seen so many people go into politics for idealistic reasons, only to sell their beliefs to get a few rungs further up the ladder.Gregghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10323165429887622931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23662827.post-8764555318771549702011-05-10T10:20:36.532+01:002011-05-10T10:20:36.532+01:00But the politicians are trying so hard not to disa...<i>But the politicians are trying so hard not to disagree with anybody that they have bored the electorate into a stupor.</i><br /><br />ABSOLUTELY.<br /><br />I agree with all of this post and have nothing add.Stuarthttp://blog.echurchwebsites.org.uk/noreply@blogger.com
