finerside	Posted Aug 5th, 2009 at 6:40PM Sounds like: Both people or sides are likely to want to have their point heard and accepted by those listening. Perhaps a debate, whether politically or personally Rated: +3Vote for this!
ZombieKitty	Posted Aug 5th, 2009 at 6:39PM Sounds like a hurtful argument to me. Or politicians. :P Rated: +2Vote for this!
MiniBryant	Posted Aug 5th, 2009 at 6:30PM The inclination on both sides "to sort of" score a point, are far too easily brought into play" Thnx!

LillyLou	Posted Aug 5th, 2009 at 6:35PM No one stops to listen to the others point of view, because they are too busy trying to get their own point heard...or maybe they are just talking over each other. Rated: +1Vote for this!

NowSure	Posted Aug 5th, 2009 at 7:35PM On both sides they want to score points, rather than find a mutaully beneficial answer. Sounds silly to me. Rated: +1Vote for this!
donquixote11	Posted Aug 5th, 2009 at 7:53PM In context it means that the tension between Russia and Georgia is still so high that it's hard to say whether or not one side will wage some sort of attack on the other, to get a "leg up" in the disagreements you might say... Rated: +1Vote for this!

kazwaz1977	Posted Aug 6th, 2009 at 4:26AM it means everyone, given an opportunity, will try to one-up the person they are with - i think it says something about human nature and is probably a throwback to when we were still at the mercy of natural selection - we have to be that bit cleverer, smarter, stronger, FITTEST to survive. Or i could be talking out of my arse! haha Rated: +1Vote for this!
