>> I am suggesting that if we want to be taken seriously and like Adults we should behave that way.
No, that’s not what you said in the post in question. You said in effect that if we weren’t politically correct in our viewpoint and subject matter, the liberals might use it against us.
> (snip) Hahaha...Here’s a poem that I created just for you. I’m sure your nanny state will not allow you the freedom to share it with anyone. (snip)
A puerile post, and a disappointment. I had hoped for a more intelligent response, but no. My “Nanny State” would surely allow me to share your kindergarten musings with anyone I wanted to, without recourse to me: indeed they would be delighted if I did. But I’d be too embarrassed to own up to this drivel originating from a Conservative forum, so I won’t.
No, least said the quicker mended. Carry on as you were.
> No, thats not what you said in the post in question. You said in effect that if we werent politically correct in our viewpoint and subject matter, the liberals might use it against us.
I said nothing about Political Correctness. The Liberals would be perfectly justified in reading what was here and taking it at face value: no spin required.
Adults are clever enough to figure that out.
> But we are taken seriously here...
Of that I am certain. You probably do take yourself seriously. And the Liberals reading your drivel probably also take you seriously.
Herein lies the problem, because you do not deserve to be taken seriously.
>> Adults are clever enough to figure that out.
Oh, I have you figured out all right.
You may have noticed that I didn’t join in the (as you term it) “frat party” atmosphere re: Chemical Ali’s hanging.
But I find your smug, sanctimonious holier-than-thou liberal suck-up attitude more repulsive than the unseemly comments of the posters you denigrate.
At least /they/ know good from evil.
I don’t give a hoot what a liberal might think of this thread. As if it would matter. You’re kidding yourself.
Oh what a wonderful world you live in...running around peeing your paints to be careful not to offend liberals. You sound like a slave to me, rather than a free adult.
I will Not...repeat will not be told by you or anyone else what to say or how to feel and if you and your liberal masters don't like it you can go jump in a lake. Got it?
Are you logged in to Free Republic?
Seriously, I do agree with the thrust of your post. Alas, the board is, among other things, training camp for aspiring comedians.
“Well, hopefully the Iraqi government can be more somber and professional about it than they were with Saddam. As much as he deserved the death penalty the way it was conducted was a travesty.”

I’m sure that when Sadaam and his henchmen killed and tortured thousands, they didn’t really care about proper decorum.

Lookit, mate — it isn’t as if the Liberals need to look particularly hard for ammo to use against us. So why is it desirable to spoon-feed it to them, and make it easier than it already is? Is it truly “sanctimonious” and “holier-than-thou” to point out that it isn’t overly helpful to provide them with our own words and attitudes from our own Forum?
You would have to be aware of the world-wide movement to abolish the Death Penalty, ay. It’s not just an informal movement, it is something that Governments around the globe are signing up to. There are no shortage of people who believe it is a barbaric punishment: so why play directly into their hands?
Surely there is nothing funny about the Death Penalty: and if there is, then maybe it shouldn’t be applied.
It is not “sucking up to Liberals” to point out that the Death Penalty is not a Frat Party.
> I will Not...repeat will not be told by you or anyone else what to say or how to feel and if you and your liberal masters don’t like it you can go jump in a lake. Got it?
That’s a great juvenile tantrum, mate — I give it 8/10. What else will you not -repeat-NOT do? I’ll give you extra bonus points if you throw all your toys out of the cot and hold your breath until you turn blue.
Same tired old same old....I hear it so often "Well, when the leberals, blah, blah, blah..."
If we justify what we do by what our opponents/enemies do and then duplicate their tactics, how are we any better than they?
Yes!
Burning question. Is he dead yet?
Overstated the worth. The last hanging was a mob of unwashed shiites in a dark room with a rope, and was a shame to all involved although they do not care as long as he is dead.
There is no such thing as moral equivalence and I would have put on a proper hanging, not a common lynching.
You know the boys in the newsroom got a running bet.
Well, let us just put on a suit and necktie, and pour a martini or two, and patiently wait results while playing a game of hangman.
