It seems I missed some fireworks last evening.....hmmmmmm

You think maybe Rush has been reading FR lately......because it sure upset his buddy holdonnow.....hahaha!

I just have one question.....how come he was allowed to get away with all the personal attacks on that thread...

He crossed a line in my book when he insulted illstillbe....grrrrrrrr!

Hey, Dog, how's that summer cold? (And I do think that the true colors of some FReepers are coming out. I wonder no longer at where the term mean-spirited conservative comes from...)

Well, despite all the caterwauling about the "rule of law" by folks on the Dark Side, it appears some freepers are more equal than others.

....how come he [holdonnow...Levin] was allowed to get away with all the personal attacks on that thread.

I kept looking for the Moderator to erase some of his posts...wondering the same thing you have wondered.

I finished reading the thread this morning and was really bothered by Mr. Robinson's post (#1448 I think) where he dismissed Levin's remarks (IMHO cruel and unnecessary) as their being "his style".

Jim admonishes Freepers to forego personal insults; yet Levin was flinging them right and left last night with nary a word of reproof from Moderator or Jim. Shades of Orwell's "Animal Farm".....Some are more equal than others.

Bully (LOL) for you, Miss Marple, for holding your own against his calling you "intellectually dishonest" and his temper tantrums just because Freepers disagreed with "the Great One" and had the courage to tell him so. And Illstillbe, you really are a poet......of the best kind!

His sarcasm and insults and name-calling flung your way, OldFriend, Dane, MM; IS, and TF were beneath contempt. My former respect for him has drastically changed.

Oh, so calling me Barney Frank, and then James Carville didn't bother you a bit........LOLOLROTF
