The majority can be wrong. Democracy is swell, but I'm not one to say 'Let democracy be done, thought the heaven's fall!' And understand, I'm worried about really bad stuff, going forward. Stuff with big body counts. I can see no upward limit on how bad it might get. We give this country to Trump, we may not get it back, ever.
Of course I got your stupid, spiteful point. You are willing to praise the Trump republicans to smear the Hillary Democrats. You are grotesquely wrong to do such a thing.
Now clean up your own vomit.

Allow me to point out once again, 'that's all you got'. QED.
And John was not praising the Republicans, he merely pointed that in the primaries, whereas Trump was elected democratically, Hillary was not. Of course, your interpretation may be different.
I fail to see what's so grotesque about it not to mention the mandated cleanup.........

You are accusing me of using of fallacious arguments, with a strong implication of intending to deceive.
But I believe every word I said, I'm very sincere--and if I am fallacious, it is inadvertent. Please help he see the gross errors you believe exist.
Or, if you just called me a name because I was critical of you, no reply necessary.

No, I was excusing my own sophistry.
Calm down. We'll all be dead soon.
And it's impossible for a person to be fallacious.

I can't be calm, I'm going to upgrade to Win 10, now, and I'm nervous as hell.
Sorry I took that last message the wrong way. Hope we stay cool, even if everyone else goes nuts....

Remember for 30 days you can uninstall Win 10 at the click of a mouse, or has MS defeated that feature.

I just did about two weeks ago. It is not bad at all. No files are lost. And everything works.

I think I'm going to chicken out. Everything works now, why ask for trouble. Only downside is Win 7 will eventually go non-supported, but will deal with that when it happens.

Believe it or not I am still on XP Pro. And my Amex card was not hacked on my machine but at Home Despot.

I've been on Win10 for six months or so here. No sweat to it.
