“Bob Barker! It’s Bob Barker!”

From the New York Times:

Quote
CLEAR LAKE, Iowa, July 4 — As thousands of people cheered along the Fourth of July parade route here, it was the tall man with the familiar white hair who made the crowd go truly gaga.

“Bob Barker! It’s Bob Barker!” two women shrieked upon seeing the former president, Bill Clinton, in the distance, as he and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York marched hand-in-hand.

Well, the two do have one other thing in common besides their hair color, but I think I'd have to give Bob the edge there:  Dian is much preferable to Monica.

You seem to have issues whenever someone makes a comment about Barker that you like. You do realize everyone's entitled to their opinion, right?

You probably meant "comment about Barker you don't like" and I agree everyone is entitled to an opinion.

The real question is, do you know what you mean?

Then what was the point of "no comment on the previous comment"?

I openly refused to dirty myself in such commentary. Yes, I know what I mean.

I would think posting something here would be better than soiling one's self, but whatever floats your boat, I guess.

"Dirty" in my previous post means to stain with dishonor and I refused to do so.

And yet, you felt compelled to comment on it anyway, which makes you no more honorable than anyone else in the thread.

Some helpful advice: you're not going to get any further with this than you did with your quest to reform ATGS or your crusade to get GSN to fill your videotape collection.  Drop it.
