and that post #78 refers to a previous dust-up between the two FReepers in question (fl/nav) on another thread that has since been deleted.

My issue is with post #75. Why is questioning a serviceman's loyalty allowed, when the argument that might explain the personal feud has been deleted? And isn't it against FR rules to carry such personal feuds from thread to thread?

No, if freeplancee made a mistake about someone's signup date -- and he did -- there is a way to call attention to the mistake -- and someone did. And freep apologised.

I would have not brought this up except that someone on this thread has been arguing that the military is a back burner issue in the upcoming election. Since we are in the middle of a war, are the democrats are in the process of providing aid and comfort to the enemy, I think otherwise. I used a particular post showing disrespect to a serviceman in Iraq as an example of something that would not be tolerated on the FR I remember.

Yes. It's against the rules to bring arguments from other threads. So quit doing it, already!

Then debate them on the issue. Don't use one incident between other parties (that is impossible to deciper given post deletions) to make your case--it's weak.
