Ethically, no I cannot.

  I would behappy to do so if the person or persons that initiated such
slurs would initiate such and keep it that way.  But so far that doesn't
seem to be their motivation, now does it?  Of course it isn't and doesn't..

  I try to do that Bruce.  But when I or my fellow Texans are publicly
attacked on this or any other public forum, we and/or I am obliged
to respond in kind so as to be sure facts are not skewed, slurred or
otherwise misstated, Bruce.  That's unfortunately one of the less
tasteful parts of the expanded political arena that you and I dislike
so much.  But sometimes it is necessary to directly address such
nonsense with common and factual sense.  Surely you can
accept that very basic precept...

  I speak for myself AND sometimes our [INEGroup] members Bruce.

  My bonifieds are well documented and can be obtained via FOIA
requests to the proper authorities Bruce.  So you not exactly correct here
either.  But you point is still appreciably taken by me, regardless.

  Who's personal attacks?  Not mine...  Judyth, Michael, Ron on occasion,
and a couple of others seem to wish to disrupt meaningful discourse in
either attacking anything I and a few others post.  Sour grapes seems to
be the underlying tone of such remarks or retorts of these individuals.
I do feel sorry for them in a way, but I should not and cannot let them
go uncontested all the time.  Sometimes if they are so obviously
silly, I do however...
