You hit abuse on the parody, unspun???
And the moderators agreed?
May I respectfully ask what EB did that was so horribly wrong — or was it a possible trademark/copyright problem?
Seriously, compared to some of the things I’ve witnessed here at FR at least this was well thought-out and an educated barb — unlike the petty backstabbing, name-calling, etc... that I see on many threads.
And, I still don’t get where a parody of a paid campaign shill posting at FR “besmirches” our names and what we do here! It’s common knowledge — and was even confirmed by the WHITE HOUSE — that they have staffers come to sites like ours and try to influence opinion (recall the Amnesty Debacle if you will, please). If anything, it’s making fun of those who are paid to post here — not the average FR member!
Not understanding this at all, frankly... Obviously I respect the moderators and above all Jim, but I honestly don’t understand how this was deemed offensive?
I enjoy Eric Blair’s posts and he/she was one of the first threads I ever posted on (it was about Disney World). It was a wonderful discussion. He/she is one of the few names I can recall so I always enjoy reading what’s posted by him/her.
“...refrain from abusive attacks...”
(And don’t smoke in my workplace.)
I could go on to ask what kind of “character” it takes to make character assassination of conservative, God fearing posters who speak positively about conservative, God fearing candidates in a conservative, God fearing forum a hobby, but I’d rather leave such a distasteful subject in the dust.
