My post, Some "Old Folks" here don’t understand the function of Free Republic (?), was a test. In fact it was a flame itself, using many of the tactics that I accused the “pseudo-Conservatives” of using (although the story is true).
I wanted to see if I could smoke any closet-Liberals out.
In the post, I addressed petty points, I acted angry (while implying that “they” had “problems” or were devious), I changed the wording used by some, I used insulting terms, I called names, I made innuendos, I disparaged their knowledge, I attributed things that were questionable, I insulted them with disparaging terms, I acted self-righteous, and so on [Liberal tactics].
This was an un-called for attack on a non-important issue.
Of course, it was a Liberal tactic.
I am gratified that no one took the bait.
If anyone thinks that he sees himself in this post, please realize that it was a set-up, and that I hold no grudges.
There are more important things in life.
