Too many of the jugular goers are "highly respected" freepers who run threads. Anyone who dares to disagree is attacked en masse. I don't attend the ongoing threads for that reason.
Not to mention the "ZOT Monkeys".
JMO, but the above is a case of the pot calling the kettle black.
Glad to see you're not slinging any mud there, cin. A thoughtful, well-reasoned post, once again. If Mother Teresa could rise from the grave, she'd give you a hug.
Also, your open-minded approach to and respect for political parties other than your own, is especially heartening.
bump !!!!
I have no! idea.....
Unfortunately true...I realize tensions are running high due to the election and all, but there is a bit too much paranoia out there regarding new posters and varying opinions. We can't change folks' minds if we ZOT them at the first sign of non-conformity, imho.
FReegards...MUD
You posted that, so I looked. I don't have any freepmail.
"JMO, but the above is a case of the pot calling the kettle black."
How so, Dane?! I don't know if yer familiar with the incident I was referencing, but it was altogether the other poster's doing. Have you EVER seen me call another long-time poster a "Troll" or a "Moby"? No you haven't becuz it hasn't occurred...fact is, I believe a little diversity in the thought processes of the posters is a Good Thing and only serves to strengthen our positions on issues when we're forced to defend our opinions against those who believe differently.
FReegards...MUD
By go for the jugular, I hope you are including calling someone an "AFer" if they question you?
Living in the moment ~ Bump!
Well... OK. Maybe not so much.
The way you sarcastically said BushGod.
God forbid someone supports one of the candidates that can actually win. We all know that Bush isn't perfect, and the world isn't perfect, either, but Bush is 1000 times better than Kerry, that is a given. And just because someone supports a candidate doesn't mean they see that person as a a "god".
IMO, some just get tired, of what I would call whining on FR, by some that the political landscape isn't perfect.
IMO, the political landscape will never be perfect and I deal with that reality.

Actually, that is more esoteric squabbling. I'm referring to calling people "Democrats" and "liberals" if they aren't Bush uber alles.
CFR was a classic example. Everyone said that Bush should sign it because the Supreme Court will throw it out. The rest is history.
Ya mean it will be safe to post comments favorable to that pro-life, pro-American jobs, anti-illegal immigration, anti-troops-for-foreign-wars, truth telling, America first conservative Buchanan?
Yes but if a freeper doesn't agree with Bush, it doesn't mean Bush will lose the election.
Buchanan pro-life? He ran under the Reform Party banner. He may talk it but he doesn't practice it.
Is he running under the Bund banner this year?
Well, I WAS game till I went to check out your homepage-
You just HAD to be from Texas, didn't ya, you goober!
Yeah, get off my jugular.
