I agree, Max. Thanks WPB!

Max you and I posted about the same response within a few minutes of each other (I was first by the way) :P

That one woulda gotten ugly. Especially after I looked into the background of the source of the statement.

if you are talking about the thread i started, i requested it be closed.

looks like it was closed, then re-opened and then re-closed.

in any event, i've learned not to post anything that's not food or beer related on this forum anymore....

no, it wasn't yours per say, it was a different one that was WAY over the top....

not mine per se. i've always loved the term per se.

glad i missed the other one.

No wasn't your post, Jason. As Max said it was a little over the top and potentially very offensive to many folks regardless of party affiliation.

To paraphrase Groucho...

I'd never join a party that would have me as a member.

pre se...

A Latin phrase used in English arguments for "by itself" or "by themselves".

example:

"Gun ownership in Japan is not, per se, illegal; however, the restrictions are such that one could easily arrive at that conclusion."

I recently read a biography of Groucho, and supposedly that quote came from real life. When he was starting out he was rejected from some club because he was Jewish. Years later when he was a big star he was offered membership at the same club, and he wrote them a letter including the famous quote. Pretty cool.
