I'm not sure what you're seeing. The quoting styles on #69 (mine) and #70 (keyboarder), for example, look identical to me. Maybe it's a browser thing, but it all seems pretty silly of you if you're able to get what I'm saying. Your "one more chance" threat is cute, btw.

But, if one does have to " hit 'quote', and" then redundantly "add quote and /quote (within brackets) around the text you want to quote," that's on the administrators for setting this forum up more bizarrely than most others. It's also way strange that sub-quotes disappear and have to be added back if necessary for the conversational  flow.

Sheesh, it's not that damn hard, look at my Reply #98, then click quote and see how I did it.

Thanks for trying.  I'm not threatening, just asking you to make it easier to follow your posts.  We don't do nested quotes here if that's what you're used to.

John, let me see if I can walk you through the process.
When you  hit quote, go to the bottom of the page and copy the last word which will be a quote in brackets, once you've copied, delete the one you copied.
Now go to the top of the page and go to the end of the sentence you want to quote and paste it there.
Click enter and then write your reply.

This was the hard part, you're almost done.

Now highlight the next sentence/paragraph you want to quote, go up to the bottom row of icons and look for this one fourth from the right, and click it and hit enter again, then write your reply, just keep repeating this and your posts will come out like the rest.
Thanks, we're really not that mean, we just want everyone to be able to read what you're trying to say.

Again with solar electric? As I said once, it's among the least green of the greens. And, as I said several times, supsalemgr's thread is about wind. Do straw men make you feel like you're not floundering?

QuoteWhat part of Tea party Idealist did you not get?

What part of TP reality do you not get? They luv dem dat corporate welfare.

QuoteI said, and I quote myself, "We want Govt out of the private sector, Period!
No subsidies, no interference, meaning doing away with the EPA and it's ridiculous regs, let the Free mkt dictate what is feasible.

Got it, you've missed the entire point. If fossil fuels are allowed to externalize their air pollution, water pollution, flattened mountains, health disasters, etc. costs off on all of us rather than having these costs show up in the consumer price, that's not a "Free mkt" at all. That's private profit with socialized harm.
   

QuoteSmaller? Husein spent nearly a trillion dollars proping up soalr, and where did it get us? Bankruptcies!

Yep, it's peanuts compared to what fossil fuels and nukes get, everyone knows that. Oh, and most of the loans have not failed and it was a Shrub program, anyhow. Didn't you know?

QuoteYour TP reps have not been voting that way when it comes to fossil fuels and nukes.

QuoteI don't know that they have,

Of course you don't.

Quotebut if they did, it's only to offset the red tape Husein is putting them through.

Yeah, that's it, you haven't been exploited and co-opted by corporate lap dogs at all.

QuoteThat's where subsidies came from, the Govt was interfering so much, that the private sector could no longer do business under such stupid conditions...

Now you're just making things up out of thin air. Even the authors never said it was mediation for regulation. You're a hoot!

QuoteThat made no sense whatsoever!...

That's because half the words you quoted were your own. Good one.

QuoteGreen energy is Not Smart energy, it's an agenda!Do you need a break to take your meds?

No thanks, I'm getting a contact high off of you.

John, please back up your position that us Tea Party conservatives support corporate welfare.

Wow. They all sound the same...

Let's begin with the TP being Koch Brothers astroturf. Then, if you don't know how your reps vote that's on you for being ignorant. I never was going to vote for them.

Again, show us where the Tea Party supports government subsidies.

OMG! these talking points are three years old...

It appears you do not know what corporate welfare is...

So far, his point is conservatives support subsidies because the county of the town with the windmills voted for Brown.

Most of their talking points come from Media Matters, DNC page or People's World.

You didn't even bother to look at my post #69, did you? Like this post of yours I'm seeing -

"Quote from: taxed on Today at 01:03:11 PM"

- followed by taxed's words in a dark blue box. What are you seeing? Looking at how you did it is pointless since subquotes disappear when one clicks on the "quote" tab in this weird forum. Almost every other forum you can have strings of 5 quotes or more embedded within each other. Here, you have to cut and paste to embed just one more than the "quote" tab gets you.

Edit: And here I'm seeing -

"Quote from: Solar on Today at 09:01:32 PM"

- - followed by your words in a dark blue box. Again, what are you seeing?

Well that clears it up. I wish they would get their crap straight before they come here. According to him Corporate Welfare is when a corporation donates to a political group.
