It was taken as such by most here.  You have to understabd, Allen, that
David has been a great deal os tress lately.  So if he appears to a rather
touchy little camper, especially on the subject of Nanaimo Bingo games, you
should make some allowances for him.

It must be quite disheartening for him to see his Socialist dream fall
apart before his eyes, for the second time.  It must be pretty hard to take
after all those years of preaching fairness, equality, common decency,
justice, fighting FOR the poor and unfortunate and all those other
wonderful things the Socialists like to preach, only to find out that their
own party has been doing exactly the opposite, ALL THIS TIME.

You see, Allen, many devout Socialists have given most of their life to the
Cause. And all this time they kept telling themselves "we're different, we
got it right, and once we get into power we'll make Paradise on earth". 

To be jarred to finally see that they have spent all of time living a lie,
can do horrible things to a man's temper.  How can one reconcile himself to
the fact that in reality, they are just as human as everybody else and
rather than owning the patent on the Universal Truth and Brotherhood of
Men, they have in their midst just as crooks, liars and thieves as anybody
else, and probably more than most others.

I'm sure David did not mean to suggest he would do anything stupid,
iresponsible or underhanded to jeopardize your position with your employer.

Perhaps people who work for large companies or in the public sector should
consider not advertising their employers in their posts.  You see, I have
the luxury of speaking on behalf of every single shareholder, director and
employee of BottomLine Productions. (seeing that "L'Etat, c'est moi" )
