However, I would like to know why this is being aired instead of a private call to the White House. Does Gaffney not have any entre to the White House? Why not? Can he not pick up the phone and call someone like Cheney or Wolfowitz?

They have warned them privately.

This is happening because Norquist publicly attacked Gaffney, playing the race card.

I a reckon we cain't go back tho'...

Sure we could. Drop the moderators. Toss out the obvious statist agitprop posters, and relegate the wine and cheese crowd to their corner on picture threads.

What about the obvious non-statist agitprop posters?

Ummm... perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the mission statement of FR.

Very good, then.

Didn't a thread like this get pulled earlier today? I was pinged to it, but by the time I clicked it had been pulled.

Oh, I have... I have... but, agitprop is agitprop... I mean, why is one person's agitprop ok, but another's is not? Unlike Leftists, conservatives don't march in lockstep...

Why don't you come to this thread that I posted today.

Yes, and unfortunately, you apparently are unaware who is getting your great information relegated to the dustbin of the backroom!

Hence my reputation in this forum as a dewy-eyed naïf.

I was having a conversation about the information I was posting. You flamed the person with whom I was having a dialogue. She left this thread as a result. What, precisely, has your "awareness" accomplished?

Let me see if I can be one of those so-called "Real Conservatives", ok? This is only a test...

"No living thing, could possibly survive in this Sargasso Sea choked with pretention, narcissism, self-absorption, fulsome back-slapping, mawkish self-congratlatoriness, arrogance, condescension, snobbery, hubris, elitism, self-righteousness, sanctimony, hypocrisy, sophistry, demagoguery, provincialism, phillistinism, reactionarism, anti-intellectualism, retrogressivism and pure hate.

The only way to bring this effluent-suffused, moribund biosphere back to life is the administration of copious quantities of (to use vcarducci's term) "consumerist propaganda", i.e. CAPITALISM and FREE ENTERPRISE, LIBERTARIANISM.

I've flipped through the posts here and quickly became overawed by the sheer volume of Statist-authoritarian collectivist-socialist-conformist-paternalist-totalitarian dogma, doggerel, rodomontade, agitprop and transparent propaganda. Such shopworn cliches, threadbare arguments, stale ideology, virtually every awkward, inapposite, solecistic word of it utterly vacuous. Post after post are nothing but mindless concatenations of empty epithets and turgid, non-cognitive rhetoric. For the defender of liberty, reason, rationality, truth, morality, dignity, enlightenment, culture, civilization, peace, progress and prosperity, this "forum" is positively GHASTLY destination in Cyberspace, an Auschwitz for the mind, heart and soul.

God, I feel MUCH better now... sort of cleansed my 'Statist Soul'... ;0)

TLB wasn't happy with this one so he posted it again! I got pinged as well! Guess he figured he would go for a duplicate!

Flame...LOL

Hey, I realize you are a relative newbie here but you have no idea what a "flame" is!

Reread my initial post to Miss Marple in reply #166.

The irony is that you still don't get it. I am on your side in this debate.

Miss Marple is not.

She leaves in a fit of pique after intimating that I am in league with some clique (I am not) and subscribe to another poster's calling her a "stay at home, soap opera soccer mom" (I do not)

You jump into something that doesn't concern you and start defending Miss Marple and go after me.

Miss Marple succeeded in cleaving two Freepers who agree with each other.

She rides off into the sunset after initiating the whole thing and you still defend her.

Incredible!

Chad,

What are you driving at?
What do you mean?
I think you are totally misreading me on this thread.

PS...the agitprop line was meant as I joke as you have referred to it quite a bit in your last replies.
