Quote:In his case, as the most outspoken and visible Conservative here, he is constantly under attack by people who only want to fuck with him for sport.
Quote:They call him every name in the book, ignore his factual positions and quotes in the most vile, immature, and obtuse manner, but YET THEY STILL ENGAGE HIM EVERY FUCKING HOUR OF EVERY FUCKING DAY!
Quote:So what the fuck is wrong with you idiots? Huh Chris? Huh Kwikstein? Got nothing better in you pathetic lives than to hurl insults at someone you have no respect for? And then you proceed to give yourselves high fives as if you've fucking accomplished something?? Calling your mean-spirited and snarky-ass shit Troll Country material is an insult to the fine tradition of Trolls. You are lower than Trolls, and beneath contempt.

Quote: his ethics go no deeper than "Republican good, Democrat bad". That's as far as he's willing to discuss things....
Quote: I guarantee you I've been called far worse by Rap than I've ever called him in return.
Quote: And as I've noted many times on this board, I tend to respond in kind. Start in with the name-calling, and I'm going to jump down in the mud with you.
Quote: What's wrong with me? What, there must be something wrong with me because I'm not willing to stand by and let someone constantly spout their lies and partisan bullshit without calling them on it and pointing out that it's wrong?
Quote: By the way, I note for the record that you didn't seem to have much to say when Rue and Signy recently signed out. In fact, you had NOTHING to say.

Quote:Originally posted by Hero: Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack: I think he's a bit partisan, but to say he's the most partisan would be a far stretch, I think. That would be a good topic. What makes a person more partisan? Is it the person who makes the ugly attacks or is it the person that makes the intellectual argument? Edited to add: I consider myself the most partisan here because I respect my position enough to argue it against all comers. Bring on the discussion, I believe I can persuade you, not because I'm a damn good lawyer who could make any case to any jury (which is close to being true), but because the cause is just and my position correct and that is a fight that loses only when it isn't fought.

Quote: What makes you think that you have the market cornered on the right ideas and the moral high ground Hero?
Quote: Just because you say it all Gentlemanly and Lawyerley like, doesn't mean that it holds any more truth than somebody else's opinion in here.
Quote: Bad show telling everyone that you're absolutely right and you're going to save everyone else from their wrong opinions and ideas using your supernatural Jedi Mind Tricks you learned before you passed the bar.

Yes we had a few good discussions recently as you say, but ONLY because we found ourselves in agreement on ONE issue....torture.
Quote:But although I don't post much, I do lurk frequently, and I am simply amazed and aghast at your endless energy in attacking and insulting everyone who is not a Liberal Democrat.
Quote:You sink to new lows every day, because you do not post with any intelligence, although I have seen examples proving you are intelligent. Instead you post with blind hatred and snarkiness.
Quote:You excuse every Obama concern with Bush analogies.
Quote:You minimalize and distort every post you don't like.
Quote:You argued against the same damn thing whenever Auraptor or someone used Clinton as an example during the Bush years, saying get over it, or mockingly saying Well Clinton did it, but NOW yer doing the same, and yer fine with it 'cause it suits your dishonest agenda here.
Quote: I do apologize for the name-calling before.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.
Quote:I disagree. I've seen this attitude from both sides. I noted in a recent discussion that while I was making points and using citations (at the other sides request) they responded with "LIAR" and "IDIOT". Hardly the stuff of intellectual counterpoint
