I think these "cross-over" votes are over blown LeftInTX Feb 22 #19

This message was self-deleted by its author SSJVegeta Feb 22 #34

It doesn't actually say that. SSJVegeta Feb 22 #35

No. SSJVegeta Feb 22 #41

Good SocialDemocrat61 Feb 22 #52

It would be an absolute mistake for anybody to underestimate either of them SSJVegeta Feb 22 #54

Who did he diss? SocialDemocrat61 Feb 22 #29

Agree with you. And I like his message. Bluepinky Feb 22 #38

This doesn't answer my question. SocialDemocrat61 Feb 22 #57

I didn't ask the question, I agree with you that he didn't diss anyone. Bluepinky Feb 22 #59

Never said if he did or didn't SocialDemocrat61 Feb 22 #61
