I agree. Although I disagree with Peach’s pro-Rudy stance, I have no personal animus towards her, and have never disparaged her. Quite to the contrary, if I could give her a piece of advice, it would be to chill out for the evening and come back at it tomorrow.
Her posts have a deliberately provocative tone to them and the last time I saw that, it was by someone who is now referred to in the past tense...
On that I can agree.
I appreciate your kind advice. I mean that.
However, my tolerance level has been severely strained since the evening Rudy supporters were called treasonous liberals; hence the provocative tone.
Words have meaning and when management and others choose to call Rudy supporters treasonous, what do we call the Jane Fonda’s of the world?
THe love affair of conservatives with Fred Thompson is the last straw I think for them, they expected we'd have to fall in line with no good conservatives getting any traction (BTW, something that they are working hard to maintain, trashing every conservative whenever there's any movement).
They didn't see Fred coming, and now he's viable and they are trying to knock him down but not succeeding. And they have gotten increasingly harsh about it, saying more stupid things by the day. And they are bitter because they don't understand how a person like Fred Thompson who is not 100% conservative is getting all the love from conservatives while their Rudy, who they love, can't get any traction.
I don't know what it is about Rudy that attracts them, especially the women (PhiKapMom was nearly swooning with exitement over having been in the same room with Rudy, that was in her last post to the site before she ran off without being banned).
