I agree, as many points of view as possible.

If Merc has left I'm confident it isn't because he got run off, but because he realised no-one was taking his BS seriously any more.
Ah, he'll be back when the next batch of Neo-Con NLP shouting-points gets circulated.

Well, I hope he hasn't vanished.
I don't see why he would feel 'run off' by us anyway. Every so often he acts like a dick. Like most of us do from time to time. And when he acts like a dick he gets jumped on. Like most of us from time to time. The last time he breezed through here he was being nasty and aggressive and people responded in annoyance. No different to any of the other times. I see no reason why he'd have taken it any more to heart this time.

I'm sure he'll be back when he's got time. He goes through periods when he simply doesn't have enough to spend it with all the lovely people here who appreciate him so much.

Why would anyone 'appreciate' hatred and fear - merc's stock in trade around here.
I don't understand that.

I was being a bit tongue in cheek with the appreciate comment. There really hasn't been much of it for Merc lately has there?

Well in his absence he has definitely left at least one hole to fill.
Better get to it. Help fill the mug. Only 7 days left and its looking pretty sad.

Or at least, modern political spin merchants think it can.
