I have had my disagreements with you in the past, but I must admit that you are spot-on in this topic and deserving of my admiration for the gutsy stand you're taking, as well as the eloquence you are demonstrating as you devastate the "arguments" of the "shut up and do as you're told" contingent.

It's no big deal to "win an argument" when the side doing the winning has the power to call in the heavy artillery and have the other side silenced by force, as we have seen time and again in this "debate".

It's something entirely different to stand up to that bullying, and win by virtue of the power of your words

My hat's off to you, lady.

If we've disagreed in the past, I surely don't remember it; contrary what some may say, I don't carry grudges from issue to issue (well, there WAS that TLBSHOW thing...LOL), but that just falls under the "Don't Like Liars" things.

But as I have said from the very first one of these threads, I'm fascinated with the political process, especially "this" one; to watch people who for five years have told us that it's their CONSTITUTIONAL duty to NOT march in lockstep now demand that we.....er.....ah.....march in lockstep has been one of the most fascinating contortions I've watched in my six years at FR.

That and the fact that I just love to see exactly who will call me an anti-Christian traitor make these threads irresistable.

joesbucks said it at the very beginning: for years we 'fake conservatives' have been told that if ONLY we'd elect a "real, true" conservative they'd win; we have now arrived at the "money where the mouth is" moment.
