This thread is an exercise in dogmatically declaring your own position to be correct, rejecting out of hand any argument that might be made to the contrary.
The name calling already on this thread is proof that this coalition of yours is anything but what you claim it to be.
Now, like the liberals, you demand only "acceptable means" to discuss the issue, and also like the liberals, this comes down in practice to mean "only those who agree with me are allowed to speak".
The very fact that you have to resort to that to prop up your position is an admission that you know it contains fatal flaws.
I asked you a question and would like an answer.
On what do you base your canard that this thread could also be called the Good Germans?
Answer and offer some type of evidence to support it.
I don't understand your vilification of the rules of engagement, civility, evidence, logic and reason. Are these not within your parameters of discussion?
Yeah, most of the TS threads have devolved into that. Just ask some of the people that have been labelled as 'Death Squad Memebers'.
Agree with us or your not a true conservatrive! Down with that pussy bitch Bush! < /shrill>
Please provide some evidence to support your assertion.
As contrary evidence, I point to the posted article:
"The WPPFF is NOT of one mind as to the case of TS or its correct outcome. In fact, wide disagreement exists within our little group. However, we are united in our wish that reason and sanity be respected in the discussion, as well as the rights of all parties involved or participating. We wish to discuss this as adults and intellectuals, as conservatives and as FRiends, not as children screaming past each other on some playground of hysteria. We wish for facts and evidence to be provided, discussed reasonably, and considered fairly."
"We DO invite others to come and reasonably discuss the issue. We have no problem with FReepers who wish to debate in a rational and fair manner, and with due respect for their fellow FReepers."
"If posters conduct themselves within the guidlines above, we will be happy to discuss and debate with you."
Well, you participate in several threads where that is true also, but I don't see ya complaining on those... Perhaps you dislike alternative viewpoints?
The name calling already on this thread is proof that this coalition of yours is anything but what you claim it to be.
By name-calling, I guess you mean in post #2 where YOU called names, and had it pulled, or were you referring to something else?
