He won’t do it Noni. He won’t because he can’t. He can’t because his pride won’t allow him to admit that he stepped in it and made a false claim.

I predict that, in true swattie liberal style, he’ll bluff & bluster and change the subject (exactly as he did when he accused you of changing the subject), and generally pretend he wasn’t caught in yet another lie. He’ll then have another one of his spastic Tourettes episodes and calls us all sorts of names that would get nearly anyone else kicked to the curb. And all the Lost Causers will look the other way.

And then swattie will take a short nap and when he awakes it will be as if it had never occurred, so he will wander back out into traffic to cause more moronic mayhem.

Rinse & repeat.

I haven’t been a part of the WBTS threads for very long but I have gone back and reread threads dating back to FreeRepublic’s early days. They invariably follow a formula: Most, but not all, are started by Lost Causers. They have an axe to grind and grind it they do. The combatants assemble - the LC’s through the Dixie Ping, the rest through happenstance. The debate goes fast & furious until it runs out of steam and then it peters out.

Unless.

Unless swattie finds it. Then whatever aspect or topic is being discussed or debated gets lost in swatties bizarre and bigoted antics. Every so often one of the LC’s will take swatties current opponent to task in a lop-sided appeal for order, but because it is so disingenuous it is also only half-hearted.

swattie knows he has an advantage in these skirmishes and he plays to it. His preferred tactic is to attempt to enrage his opponent to say something offensive enough for the mods to intervene. When this transpires a curious sequence follows. The mods, for reasons that mystify many here, ignore the fact that it is mutual combat and ban swatties opponent. Then swattie carves another notch in his belt (as if he had actually done anything to merit it) and crows about another one banned.

The dead cannot defend themselves and neither can the banned so swattie, in his typical ignominious fashion shapes the narrative and generally embarrasses himself by strutting around on the bones of his enemies, pretending as though he had actually won something. In this thread it was Whisky Papa that swattie chose to disparage. Because swattie had brought his name up before (heck everything that swattie does is a mindless repetition!) I did some simple research to see what he was bellowing about. It turns out (no surprise here!) that swattie totally mischaracterized Whisky Papa’s posts. swattie’s specific allegation (this time around) was: “PRO-DIMocRAT/LEFTIST/hate-FILLED”, but a complete review of his posts reveal nothing of that sort at all. Simply posts that countered swattie’s POV.

The fascinating thing in all of this is the lack of interest or outrage towards this obvious disrupter. I can understand why the rabid LC’ers might not want to call attention to an unruly one of their own, but when he turns a thread into a circus their POV gets lost too. What possible advantage do they see in continuing to allow swattie to disrupt?

It takes all kinds to run a railroad - even pinheads like swattie...

Thanks for the excellent, well researched & thoughtful post.
I suspect you've done more good even that banning stand waite (which he surely deserves) would accomplish.

By the way, I noticed where stand waite claimed to be an MP 0-4.
Well, no O-4 I ever knew, even among MPs(!), sounded like stande waite.
For one thing, the US Army has always required actual brains in its officers, not just some fake naugahyde substitute. ;-)
