[nabs-l] Wanting to be off the 9/11 thread

[Hartle, Jesse]

Chris,

    I believe that it is the content of this debate on 911, rather than the ability to debate issues of blindness, Which this list does allow.  Jesse

Well, you sensored it a little! LOL! Again, tell it like it is! 
Love it! So, I have a question, then.  As you said, "this forum has no place for partisan agendas..." except for the NFB's partisan agenda? Oh, so if we don't like partisanship politically on this list, then why do we allow the partisan agenda of the NFB to be on this list?

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical nuisance." -- Kenneth Jernigan (President of the National Federation of the Blind, 1968-1986.)

To those who keep complaining about the 9/11 threads, be proactive and start something new instead of complaining.  And others have moved on.
We've discussed flying with a cane, traveling independently around an airport, E-books online and the relaunch of a web radio show.  
The only
obsessing I continue to see on this thread is those bitching about it, and worse, those veering off with ridiculous, partisan comments, and since I'm on it now, to each his own.  You conservatives go on and on about liberal agendas, but conservatives have agendas too- that's how politics work.  And if one group wants to organize and inform, then other groups must be afforded the same opportunity.  Just like two organizations of the blind.  So get off the soap boxes and realize this forum has no place for partisan agendas especially when it degenerates into attacks and name-calling.  Once again, grow up.  And now I'm going against my own suggestion of leaving this sh*# to the moderator.  
Geesh,
look what this reduces me to...

Sincerely,
Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter

Shouldn't we be done with this thread? It's been going on for
three days.
