[edit] Manners

Dont go around calling people blind. Dont be so abusive. Or, alternatively, by all means DO be abusive but do not complain if others are abusive back. In case you prefer the latter option, here's a little abuse back: who are you calling blind you dumb arse? Looking at most of your edits you clearly dont know your arse from your face. Stop being such a beligerent POV pusher and go and get a life!!! (See, its easy to be rude. Much better not to be). Can I assume you will be better mannered in futre?

[edit] Border Campaign

You are correct in saying there was no UK general election in 1956 however the events in Northern Ireland may have confused people. In the 1955 election 2 Sinn Féin candidates were elected - Phil Clarke in Fermanagh / South Tyrone and Thomas Mitchell in Mid Ulster. Being IRA prisoners they were debarred as "convicts" and the elections were held again in May of 1956. Coolavokig (talk) 06:56, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for correcting me, it makes sense now.--Johnbull (talk) 18:22, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reagan's role in the Cold War

[edit] Infamous

Infamy, infamy, they've all got it infamy. Most people regard that leader as infamous - including the originator. Justin talk 22:35, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

But can you not see why I consider it a point of view? I think it far better to just provide a factual description without a value judgement on its merits or its reputation (if the latter had to be included, then "controversial" would have been better).--Johnbull (talk) 22:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
No strong feelings either way but a factual description should include the controversy surrounding the headline. The ambiguous description in the current version would be pushing an agenda. Justin talk 23:14, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Richard Littlejohn

Thank you for reverting vandalism to the page. You might find these template messages handy for warning the vandal. I have blocked them under WP:3RR, technically they should have gone through 4 warnings (but they vandalised 5 times, in quick succession, so I feel justified in giving them a little time to think about their actions).
