But in case you need a reminder...

Simple-minded, two-dimensional idiocy (the cartoon, that is)...but thanks for posting it just the same as I would be hard-pressed to find myself exposed to such garbage otherwise.

I am remembering the victims of the events of 9/11 and their families today with respect and gravitas. You would do well to attempt the same.

Once again, your arrogance is overwhelming. I have no idea why you assume that I am not respecting the victims and families of 9/11.

I could say that you would do well to not preach to me how I should do anything. But that would be arrogant and presumptuous if me, would it not?

just saying....

Shayne, your knee-jerk 'arrogance' defense mechanism is painfully transparent and it never has served you well. Far better to man-up and simply acknowledge the justified spanking I applied and get on with it.

In case the lesson didn't take, though, and for the benefit of anyone else who might care to read through our comment string, it is patently and absolutely disrespectful of the victims and families of 9/11 to bring politics to bear in a remembrance of that horrible day.

Having said that, let me thank you for the laugh...the "well not to preach" thing coming off YOUR keyboard just kills me!

K, you're a funny guy. I have to give you that. But your comeback simply makes you look petulant and pompous.

But then again, it isn't the first time.

Shayne, I just realized...you know plenty of words, but you don't actually know what they mean! My apologies for not spotting it until now...my bad. Here...let me help:

respect: have due regard for the feelings, wishes, rights, or traditions of

arrogant: having or revealing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities

petulant: (of a person or their manner) childishly sulky or bad-tempered

pompous: affectedly and irritatingly grand, solemn, or self-important

You really have to be careful with words, Shayne, especially those that have more than one syllable. Really, there is no shame in keeping a dictionary next to your keyboard (or heck, just go to www.dictionary.com).

-- Now THAT comment was arrogant/pompous...oh, and funny (and spot-on)! --

Actually, I stand by everything I said and do not require a dictionary. My chosen words were exactly the ones that I meant.
