Tony Blair
Tindy; a fantastic and truly great individual from Coventry(UK). Everyone in the world should aspire to be like him as he is the only gay in the village, A most selfless and generous being God save Tindy Garchay he's getting gayer by the day .. hehe !

Pat Robertson
Ahoy there, Tindy. Your attempts to remove POV from the Pat Robertson page are laudable, but be careful you not to add your own in the process. Taking minor words that don't have larger connotations and removing them (i.e. "failed" presidential bid) shows a bias; you ascribe a connotation to failure as a negative that incorrectly defines his campaign. The facts are that he did fail and the use of the term doesn't imply anything else. Changing things like this can sometimes taint other's opinions of less POV edits and cause them to assume bad faith editing, a slippery slope of a mess that can bog down otherwise civil people in edit wars. Regarding your removal of the Brosman, Jr. allegation and the quote from Robertson, both have sources and have previously been argued about on the talk page, and the community has come to a consensus, that these belong and that they do have validity. The accusations are listed as accusations and the facts as facts. Similarly, regarding his net worth, this is a citation of fact that isn't under dispute. The politics regarding the book itself can be questioned all day long, but unless you have some reason to doubt the veracity of the claim, it should stay in the article. On a final note, the fact that he graduated from law school but failed to pass the bar exam is of some note. Few professions require licensing as strict as in the legal arena, where expending the education you paid so dearly for is conditioned entirely upon such a test. Failure is significant, as well as the fact that he decided not to continue to pursue it, not least because without this citation it appears as though he is a licensed lawyer. Thanks your edits on Wikipedia, hope you keep it up. I'll be posting an edited version of this on the talk page if you'd like to respond there.--The Grza 06:14, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
