I simply paraphrased, using less offensive language, William F. Buckley's famous quote.

Originally posted by robrecht View PostI investigated far enough to realize (I thought) that you were only quoting Spencer who was less offensively paraphrasing Buckley. But, is it your paraphrase, ie, did you write this piece on Spencer's site? Or are you only quoting his paraphrase? Perhaps the slippery slope is becoming slipperier and slipperier ...
You do know I am kidding... right? Being a rather serious fellow, I do not do kidding very well, so I apologize for confusing you.Last edited by John Reece; 06-19-2014, 04:23 PM.
