You need to do some soul searching, or you could find yourself permanently banned.

Why should he be banned? For being too conservative? It's not like he supports Mitt Romney over Palin. He supports Micehele Bachmann.

You're not realizing that many conservatives have reservations about Palin and, specifically, her ability to be beat Obama?

If this was the case, you would certainly be right. However, what he is up to is plain and simple Trolling. If this was a stranger, someone folks around here didn't really like over the years he would have been zotted long ago. I personally have liked him much before this phase, but, he has just plain gone crazy with PDS and there is no other way to look at it. I keep wishing he would dial it down about 50% and add some facts and meaningful observations, or something, but instead, its just repeating the MSM liberal "lets trash Sarah" quote of the day, delivered with snark. Barrf...

He almost doesn't spend any time advancing Bachmann who shares almost 100% of the same positions as Sarah Palin (By the way) but is 0% electable in this cycle, though who knows about the future. Instead, every day he is trashing Sarah Palin with the most vile stuff he can dredge up. He fixates on little things and turns it into a whole barrage of innuendo, all smoke, all crap when it comes down to it. Ultimately folks around here know Sarah Palin probably better than any other candidate in the country. She has some flaws, and some positions which are just not right like her thinking on Title IX, but all in all, she is head and shoulders better than any candidate out there and the only one who has any history of cleaning up corruption which is the most important need of all.

Instead, we are treated to the 50th article on Palin may not completely hate all homosexual people. Well, we know this. For example. He got upset about Palin's retweet of Tammy Bruce's frustration over who was making statements on DADT, and spun that into Palin supporting repeal of DADT, which Palin has not done. Then, given that folks pointed this out to him, now every article insinuating that Sarah Palin doesn't shoot homosexuals on sight gets posted by pissant as "proof." Palin has some really strong supporters who are "gay" and have defended her when everyone else ran for the hills, and we know she is a person who values loyalty. She still is a supreme defender of the institution of marriage, and lives a commitment to the right to life where most politicians just spout what they think people want to hear.

Though she is a conservative, she is not by any stretch of the imagination a paleo, which is what pissant wants. She is in the realm of conservative-libertarians that reflects a set of values you find in many Tea Partiers. Her great difference being that she is staunchly a Republican and never threatens to quit just because she isn't getting her way. She is not Ronald Reagan, but she is Sarah Palin and thats plenty good enough.

Half of the threads involving pissant now are folks complaining about the post, not discussing the topic or the facts. It wastes time and the reason why Trolls are generally banned in the first place. Worse, folks post on threads where pissant hasn't excreted and call him to make a fool of himself there just for the entertainment value. This is bad for decorum, and teaches new folks bad lessons on how we treat each other around here.

I have on numerous occasions argued that he is doing something valuable, but over the last two weeks, it just has gotten old. I am sick of it. If an article should have had a barf indicator but it doesn't and instead has someone gleefully supporting the new craptastic lie that is too good to check, it unfortunately was posted by pissant 98% of the time. He has become a Troll and he needs to reconsider or be treated like one.
