Why is it that Freepers who have been here for the better part of twenty years are prepared to trash their record (or Opus out), with vicious attacks on someone else's candidate? I know we're a big dysfunctional family but we're still all conservatives, of various hue. So why would you offend intentionally offend other Freepers - and in this case, JimRob - when all that would do is harden their views?

BtA, how can you ask that when you can remember all the well known old time Freepers gone by the wayside through the years.

Some people just cannot remain civil in the face of vigorous dissent. I have been on the wrong side here from time to time to a small degree. When I was a youth in the 1960's I was fortunate to read a "Reader's Digest" article "Don't Butt Your Head Against a Brick Wall" or at least it was something like that. That lesson in futility and reason directed me toward a more thoughtful approach in arguments and discussion. Those so full of themselves that they cannot suffer their own introspection do not impress me much. Neil E. Wright needs to go outside at recess and swing on the monkey bars for thirty minutes.

Did you find it humorous that the writer Neil E. Wright, in his magnum opus postremum, culled his thoughts from Herschel Smith who culled his thoughts from Jonah Goldberg?
