I told it to YOU, as YOU are the one who needed to be told!

Stop acting so high and mighty, as if butter wouldn't melt in your mouth. "VICTIMHOOD" will get you nowhere.

I don't hit the abuse button on someone, just because they express sentiments different from my own; UNLIKE YOU AND YOUR BUDDIES>.

I just wanted to be on more civil terms.

Then stop telling people when they can or cannot post on YOUR threads:

And just to keep the record straight, since it's obvious from your post, you still cannot tell the truth:

This Needed Repeating

Actually, what that needs is a clarification.

You evidently copied from Reagan Man's #295:

To: WhistlingPastTheGraveyard

Why?

Question:“Why did you vote against the recent border security bill, H.R. 4437? Do you support amnesty for illegal immigrants?”

Boehner: H.R. 4437 has a number of strong provisions aimed at stemming the tide of illegal immigration, all of which I support.

I opposed one section of the bill that places a massive unfunded mandate on small businesses. I for one don’t think we stop illegal immigration by strangling the small businesses that are the backbone of our economy. Nor do I believe it is right to turn small business owners into felons for failing to do the federal government’s job of protecting the borders. Had it not been for this one section, I would have supported the bill.

I worked with colleagues of mine to address these concerns, but we were not allowed to offer an amendment. And my committee, which has jurisdiction over these employer issues, was only given twenty-four hours to review the bill. That’s not enough time to fully review a massive piece of legislation and offer substantive changes.

The only way to make my voice heard was to cast a risky vote. I did so, and I have no regrets.

As for the second question: no. I do not support giving amnesty to illegal immigrants. I never have and I never will. Illegal immigrants are just that -- illegal. Their first act upon entering our country was to break our laws and they need to be held accountable.

Now, Reagan Man, can you stop salivating long enough to explain to the class when YOUR post #295 why

You made a post on a public forum using words that weren't yours and containing no link to give credit to the actual writer. That is plagiarism. Those are the facts. You don't want to be held to the same standards as everyone else. You screwed up and you don't have the decency to apologize to the forum.

or why

(You are not) a plagiarist. Just like liberals Jason Blair, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Steven Ambrose, Ward Churchill, Al Gore, Kitty Kelly and good old Joe Biden.????

Can you explain that, huh, can you?

Because you did the SAME DAMN THING I DID on this very thread, only you did it FIRST!!!!!!

I'm in the same situation, so I don't even GO on immigration threads. I agree with most of what is said, but the anti-Bush crowd is so virulent that they attack anyone who isn't in lockstep with them........especially people like me with a "W" in my name. :)

But these same folks carry their anger over into other threads, which is against FR rules.

I think your observations are right on target here.

Instead of telling others to "grow up" or "act their aged", how about YOU stop being so childish? :^)

Didn't you used to be a decent person, Reagan Man?

What's happened to you? Or is someone else posting under your name, and the real Reagan Man is gone?

What's going on here??

Without my post, the thread wouldn't be [sic] exist.

So in your opinion other freepers wouldn't have been capable of finding and posting this article from GOPUSA.com?

ROFL. I think you need a little help with that monumental ego of yours. You don't own ANY thread, regardless of WHO posts it. It's an open forum and if you don't like that, go start your own web site and invite your little buddies to join over there.

Portgate, Like Most Liberal Orgasmic hysterical Spasms, has already come and gone...

As people learn THE FACTS, it's becoming a NON-ISSUE...

What we NOW have (Or Should be Loudly Promoting) is FAKE-BUT-ACCURATE-POLL GATE!!!

How much longer do we let CBS and others(Like the DNC, World Workers Party, AfterDowningStreet.Org) get by with the OUTRIGHT LIES???

You posted a DUPLICATE THREAD.

The article was ALREADY posted to FR.

Ergo, without YOU, it not only would exist on FR, but it DID already!

I'd like for you to engage in civil and intelligent debate.

You're kidding, right? Last night you were all over the place calling freepers jihadist sympathizers.

I'm beginning to think that his idol isn't his idol at all, Carolinamom.

Anyone who truly admired Ronald Reagan does NOT have this deep a hatred for George W. Bush.

I think Reagan Man may well be a complete phony, and it's just taken a while for it to surface.

But it's boiling at the top now, isn't it?

Thats so true. I usually go over at DU for fun to see their rants. I didnt have the heart to do so today. They must love seeing ourselves eat each other. I wish Republicans would understand this. The President of the US is the head of the Republican party. We have 2 and half years till the new President comes in. I am not saying you must agree 100 percent with him but this attacking Bush all the time is going to Destroy us and take all the Prez, the HOuse, and the Senate away from us before its all over. If the Prez goes down we will have no leader to take over for speaking for us till the Republican convention of 2008.
