It just seems too reactionary as opposed to having a = good solid idea that has been planned on in advance. I hope that Ivan is successful in getting a meeting with the First Lady. = However, the Republicans still hold a majority of both houses. = Furthermore, she is not on their list of most wanted conversationalist. = If we lay all the pieces of a puzzle in front of us to predict the = outcome.

"is that the way it appears to others?" "if it is truly arguing, what is 'wrong' with arguing?" "is arguing a 'bad' thing or a 'good' thing?" "or is it something else?" in the concise oxford dictionary the verb to argue is defined as: 1. to exchange views or opinions, especially heatedly or contentiously 2. to indicate; maintain by reasoning 3. to reason 4. to treat by reasoning 5. to persuade i found the exchange, the sharing, of our ideas, views, opinions interesting and en-light-ening and feel that our list-family would be the poorer without it weird? i dunno, just mulling your cyber-sibling janet ------ =_NextPart_000_01BD9496.7FC58BE0 Content-Type: application/ms-tnef Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 eJ8+IjYVAQaQCAAEAAAAAAABAAEAAQeQBgAIAAAA5AQAAAAAAADoAAEIgAcAGAAAAElQTS5NaWNy b3NvZnQgTWFpbC5Ob3RlADEIAQ2ABAACAAAAAgACAAEEkAYAUAEAAAEAAAAMAAAAAwAAMAIAAAAL AA8OAAAAAAIB/w8BAAAAXAAAAAAAAACBKx+kvqMQGZ1uAN0BD1QCAAAAAFBhcmtpbnNvbidzIElu Zm9ybWF0aW9uIEV4Y2hhbmdlAFNNVFAAUEFSS0lOU05AbGlzdHNlcnYudXRvcm9udG8uY2EAHgAC MAEAAAAFAAAAU01UUAAAAAAeAAMwAQAAAB4AAABQQVJLSU5TTkBsaXN0c2Vydi51dG9yb250by5j YQAAAAMAFQwBAAAAAwD+DwYAAAAeAAEwAQAAACMAAAAnUGFya2luc29uJ3MgSW5mb3JtYXRpb24g RXhjaGFuZ2UnAAACAQswAQAAACMAAABTTVRQOlBBUktJTlNOQExJU1RTRVJWLlVUT1JPTlRPLkNB AAADAAA5AAAAAAsAQDoBAAAAAgH2DwEAAAAEAAAAAAAAAq5GAQSAAQAUAAAAUkU6IGxldCdzIG5v dCBhcmd1ZQB1BgEFgAMADgAAAM4HBgAKABEAJQA1AAMAUwEBIIADAA4AAADOBwYACgARACQADgAD ACsBAQmAAQAhAAAAMkVFODU5MUY4MjAwRDIxMTk3MUJFNDhCRjRDMDAwMDAA/gYBA5AGAEQJAAAU AAAACwAjAAAAAAADACYAAAAAAAsAKQAAAAAAAwAuAAAAAAADADYAAAAAAEAAOQCA+PwFuJS9AR4A cAABAAAAFAAAAFJFOiBsZXQncyBub3QgYXJndWUAAgFxAAEAAAAWAAAAAb2UuAXsH1noMACCEdKX G+SL9MAAAAAAHgAeDAEAAAAFAAAAU01UUAAAAAAeAB8MAQAAABYAAABnbGVlbWFuMUBtYWluZS5y ci5jb20AAAADAAYQKBSnUAMABxDiBwAAHgAIEAEAAABlAAAAREVBUkxJU1QsSU1OT1RDT05DRVJO RURUSEFUV0VHSVZFSVZBTk1PTkVZVE9HT1RPV0FTSElOR1RPTkhPV0VWRVIsSVRTRUVNU1RIQVRJ U0JBU0VETU9SRU9OQVdISU1USEFOTwAAAAACAQkQAQAAALsHAAC3BwAAtQ0AAExaRnV0A9dp/wAK AQ8CFQKkA+QF6wKDAFATA1QCAGNoCsBzZXTuMgYABsMCgzIDxgcTAoO6MxMNfQqACM8J2TsV/3gy NTUCgAqBDbELYG7wZzEwMxQgCwoUIgHQKCBEZQrBTAQAdCwDCoUKhUknbSBubzMFQAWgbmMEkQmA IHQDEcAFQHdlIGdpdrkdoEl2A5EEYB0AeR0wDm8dsB7QHsFXYXNoBQuAZx7Abi4gSG/DHZAd4HIs IGkFQBHwnGVtBCAdQwQAIGIfYJcdEQRgFgAgAiAgYR2AXx+AHEAdQQOgImFzBvBpOx0gC1FuAwAZ AB/wIFRvH4AEICGBHGJiHaALgHT9BJBwFgAloB0gH2AigR0AzmcdYB3SFgBzcAIgEfBjHrIeE3Ry eR+RHrJo+GVscCJQHUAEkCESA2A4dWdoKMAHcBHwbGZlJGFJBUBqdRsQIMZv/x7QFgAA0CbQAiAK wB6gJkGcb3AnUCHSKKJhdihi/yKQHvAEcCN1I7AasB00EcB/IZEJ4SPUHREiYQuAIoBk+x4hHNAu G00owCzAJ5EdUmMeEyGBc3VjHNAEEGb2dQMgMJFnEgAm0C2zB4A/EgAoYgPwHUAdMR2gRmnrEeAF QEwwwHkkYSAXNbKQUmVwdQJgaWMGIm8bEAMQAyAyQGwmIR5QYc5qBbAgoB6gb2YhoCkh7zIxKvAH kCRhRghwKTIiEn8ggB9wJWEk9CJhKTE2ACDfI6ArATmxBGArAXcAcCYC+xyhIFFzJsEsMTzSKoI5 wN8dkQtgLHE4gTWycAiQM5FHOaIikDewenpsJWIgvwNRAjA5oirwHrIl0WQ38HcFQDWyCGB0BaAH gCRhU3sIcCjgeSCAHZEKwAnwJ/8FQCrwKGM1wQUQKeAFQEB1/0KSQ5BAJEFEHsA0QSlBQ/knIpAL YAeAIGQzcGsgvlAnIS6xQgEwkSSiZguA6wdAHTB3HtB5GrFAwzmw/0rQHNAdgAhgONEtcUSxHJD/ EcA4gAnwNEAeskswPOIKwO8hAQBwTLEo4mEs0ANgJdCnBzAloDWjVWQ/8kEsAP8/JDdeJeELcSJR IkEFwDnp7SCASDhxLFJDI6ACMCJh/GRvB5BFAkzVJdA/wEgx/RtMQSawC4AggDIgPaIesuUg8HAv UWl6MnZMZR3D/0rQAYAeoFTwVBJCczLkOcD3NcE4ASDBY0QxNL81wUnI/wWxNftXoThyVPA3wTJ1 HsH5UrJodU7QFgFaV1tvXH3/CGE3iUHBCJBO0CyhPFNPSfcsIQQgQ7FtIKAloEPiJJD/IVQisASQ Q2JTASvRLpEhke9DkCWhCYBfE2scYAfgMuZ/HZA4gSciBZAmAmVVPuVI/zuzIpBk1D0TC4BD4iAX HZHvVPAcUwdAPaB5JlEJwiRh/kFO0R2RX2M4VCVRZNUxPV83kGszM9FEYDNRYmbjZO0bNkcWACiA TCDhAHAKj/cLkRLyDAFjAEAbpnWLI6AIMTgwAtFpLTE0njQN8AzQeVMLWTE2daD3A2AloEMRLXt3 dYd6KwwwdXr2RgNhOnx+evYMgiD+SgBwEgBJsE/REeACIHwf330tBmACMH5ff2tXCYAdAPZzUGBE cUpg8B2gGSAggBAxOTk4hiE6NDPNE3BNgR99LVRvg19/a95NM+Am0AtQJwJjBSBk8QZ0QMM801BB UktJuE5TTodPgi43wGprUWeJb39rQXB0JyT0CsBn5wpQd394gzM2efcaNHrnZx+AP+IbTGknHeEv k23/c3EtowbgRvWL0UoiQvAE8O8q8ACQMGQiMScCEBYARfC7HQAR4CeWLT2RODJySYL2Yh6hNcFm K/EdNEDiQAX/QvAN0GgRSjIEEApQUiELcP8h0XWFQ0NSwR1DKuBYUDAyP0bxHWFJQZwBn+kus2V4 vyXRBBAdEZyxbPEH0Dp1heoikd0iG0xtHqBK0DYSfRYALSv0oilKEQcxdYUn3SKwb5IBknIfkT+a /abx/2KBAiAdIKePqJOeoACBHeDvpJYisB6gHGE/pg8dMTYA/6v/pqQiIh1AKcJzUqSWRNG9HYEv KTEscaoVruYiIYH/YCQ1wW9xIJJPUUuDYHIpM/+0STnAIKG04pxgc5GqBUSB5yFFqZBB4WcnNVSz 32zC66oUIoEnIbBkuiCwAShx/wWxvFEuAry1tEgFsSSyILH/Q8G81CjgEfCu3jCRNbIcovufoSJQ eJpRYUFDASwkn+n/IFGAEB7BknMhcg2xbcEmIu2khjEf8FgSeBGxTaItkP8H0CyhBcAswAuAZmIg gGsj7wcxc5Eo0E/RZHORBbEcob8loAIwLCAq8ERgdYUyxkP3C4BC8U/ROzkRJYFScpyx7yvRgOEf kXWFM8ZDzMR1hb40xkMoMMkRzI8KwTXGQ/syYBHgdTDAkr2V0AIQYPH/NaPGljc0H3AKwLjzS9Jj 8f8uslPBxyPUscfFwOdpUjhRty2yTtEJ8C0joEYBLajRf803TsKeoCjgnWVj8TzSLf+dIGbgc5FM dCVRQDMroBYAfwXANWKYQiCgG0wdkLAhP/ebd0lwJBBvGzYq45elG0wldYV5Y+JjeSVQci33AJA3 0eBuaoBC4I+Tb3ZrF3r2dYUVIQDoQAADABAQAAAAAAMAERAAAAAAQAAHMGAJ7cq3lL0BQAAIMGAJ 7cq3lL0BHgA9AAEAAAAFAAAAUkU6IAAAAAADAA00/TcAAGw1 ------ =_NextPart_000_01BD9496.7FC58BE0--
