I don't "kid" when I tell the truth.

We lost. Trolls and fanatics splintered conservatives and it worked. It's still working. The Blame Game always does.

Yeah, mindbendy made an ill advised post over at TBL that got spotted. Ooops.

Not true, Jim and the mods do not track posts at other sites.

Doing well, all things considered, this damned global warming is not making my retirement more comfortable nor was the last election.

When spring comes around I think I am going harass the County Committee a bit for entertainment.

Give my love to La Madam.

OK mine is IE9

My other ‘puter (PC) is still IE8.

I flipped out when I upgraded to 9 it was so strange, but now I am used to it and 8 seems like an antique when I fire up the PC.

So you've seen every thread...is this why you claim to know all truth?

You obviously missed those threads during that time. It lasted about a week but there were quite a few banned.

You may have misunderstood the posters meaning. I believe that the post was spotted by FReepers who then knew he was trolling. Being pressured by posters, trolls usually out them selves on FR.

Please reread my post 493. It was an honest assessment of FR during the campaign cycle.

People can’t remember something that never happened.

Right now I am reading your romneybot/anti Gingrich posting history, so far I see that you have been pushing this troll idea that quote (capitalization is yours) “”ANYTHING anti-Newt”” was resulting in zottings since at least May of 2012.

Hmmm...last May. That must have been the time period then.

I don't know how to retrieve the threads because I don't have titles. But you really shouldn't claim to know everything that went on when you obviously missed some threads.

There was a period toward the end of the primaries when not one negative word against Newt was allowed. If you had posted your comments during that time you would have been purged. I don't have the links to the purge threads but it did indeed happen.

Nope, you made that up. You are letting your Romney support color your thinking.

You Romney followers were under some pressure not to troll, that is a fact, but not the part about the Perry supporters, Santorum supporters, Cain supporters, and Bachmann supporters who said anything critical about Gingrich, being zotted, that is BS.

What is being missed is that we had actual trolls stirring the pot. Posters that threw in their lot with those trolling paid the price.

These were people who had issues with Gingrich's marriages for example.

You might consider that a troll but I don't think that's accurate.

Most trolls of the 2012 cycle could be traced to being Romney supporters, anti-conservatives.

No, I remember the Santorum people were particularly upset about being barred from anti-Gingrich comments.

This didn't take place during the whole primary season. By this time Perry, Bachmann and Cain supporters weren't in the mix. It was well after they had left the race.

Don't pretend to have seen all threads. You evidently did not.

No they weren't, they weren't being zotted for being anti-Gingrich as you claim. You are lying about their being a purge of anti-Gingrich freepers.

So we are to believe you saw all threads?

Now who's lying?

Apparently you were unaware of what was going on. It had nothing to do with Gingrich and everything to do with an anti-FReeper site.
