Quote:I'm not shocked at Momma Angel's beliefs, I'm disgusted.
In some of my previous post exchanges with Momma Angel, I was too polite to state what I thought she really is based on a number of her posts. I called her an elitist instead. She denied she was an elitist just as she now denies her true character: "I am in no way, racist, a bigot, sexist, etc. In NO WAY whatsoever." It's too late for her to claim she's not all those types of people she listed in her last post. She's already amply demonstrated that the shoe, in fact, does fit.
I visited Momma Angel's web site. I studied what sshe claims to do and who is involved. I studied her photograph to see if it matched my impression of her. It didn't and I was surprised. I can't post the site's link here because the A2K moderators have already deleted it once before on another thread. One strong impression I got from this information is that a clever woman has found a use for A2K to support her personal efforts and in spreading her mission and philosophy, including her fund raising efforts.
Now I could be all wrong about my impressions and conclusions. If I am, then I'm prepared to apologize.
I guess my question to Momma Angel is: Are you using A2K to further your self-interests and the mission of your site?"

BBB, I am sorry, but I just don't see much of a difference here. You still (if I am reading this correctly) are calling me not only an elitist, but a bigot, a racist, and a sexist? If this is the case, you are so far off the mark you aren't even in the same firing range! Just because I think men are more equipped emotionally to handle political office does not mean I am a sexist. Everyone in Louisiana knows everyone in Louisiana. I didn't vote for Governor Blanco because I know some of her friends and her relatives and therefore am privy to some information you aren't. That's the reason I didn't vote for her. If she had been the right person for the governorship, I would have voted for her. To me, being sexist means I wouldn't have voted for her just because she is a woman. Not the case.
A bigot? A racist? Where have I ever said anything even close to being bigoted or racial? I believe we are all God's children and we are all due the same respect and dignity because of that. I just don't get where you think I am a racist at all.
I will explain exactly to you why I post on A2K at all so there will be no doubt in yours or anyone else's minds about that. I came across the site accidentally one night and read what I felt were some rather disturbing things. I got involved in the discussions because I wanted, more than anything, to understand the differing views and opinions that I read. Now, I have had some heated discussions with some and I have been able to agree to disagree rather civilly with most. I want to understand the reasons people feel the way they feel. The only way to do that is to ask them and thereby learn from their responses. That, and for that reason only, (well, that and I have made some pretty cool friends too!) do I involve myself with A2K.
The only thing I can gain personally from all this involvement is hopefully, a better understanding of other's views.
So no, BBB, I am not using A2K to further my self interests nor the interests of my (I am not even coming close to using that word because I promised!).
Now, I hope that answers you fully. And yes, I still feel you personally attacked my character and accused me falsely.

Frank! How good to see you! How is your sister? I am so sorry she had to leave her home. Does she know if she has anything left? I hope so much that she does! And Frank, you are being such a gentleman! I would kiss you if I were there! Take care, my friend!
