There was a fourth comment on this post, which I deleted. The first time I have ever deleted a comment. The good news was upseting to someone who sounded very bitter, and their comments following each of the headlines above were laced with profanity. I must confess, I do not understand why someone would visit blogs they so vehemently disagree with, work themselves up into a lather, and then leave bitter and profane comments on their entries. But, since this is my blog, the same rules apply here as they would to guests in my home. You will be treated with honor and respect, but if you are unable to do likewise, then the door out is one click away. Profanity will not be tolerated.
