Now, come on....First of all, you're not making complete sense. First of all, you say "Anyone who comes here from a liberal site to disrupt this one by trying to turn this into a debating society to present liberal dogma is vile. If you are any of those things, you are vile." Hmmm...I guess I'm guilty before proven innocent. Oh, okay, you're right. I'm really Ralph Nader, and I'm spending my post-election free time hanging out here!

You know, actually, anytime you gather more than one human being under a roof, even two Conservatives, there's bound to be eventual debate. You might be surprised to learn that you and I probably agree about certain things; but that doesn't mean we'll agree about everything.

Thirdly, you say: "Murder is vile. Anyone who supports is vile." Okay, we're currently at war. Are you supporting that war? If so, are you vile? Like it or not, war includes murder, no matter how necessary the war is. Any Marine will tell you that. You can call it "collateral damage," but some would call it murder. I'm not arguing against the war here, by the way, but I AM trying to make a point. As "Semper" said, these are complex issues, very complex.

Finally, you say: "Welcome to FreeRepublic, unless you are a liberal troll, then go to hell." What does that mean, exactly? I still don't get the trolling part.

I actually feel badly now about my response to you the other day, but I thought you should have a taste of your own medicine. You seemed to want a ranklefest, so I gave it to you, but that's not my usual nature. I guess if that's your style, okay, good, you don't have to care. But I can almost guarantee that no one will listen if you express yourself so. Passion is good; mean vitriole, no.

And welcome folks to FR without the rant. Did you read my post about "Compassionate Conservatism"? Is there only one kind of Conservative: YOU?

Nonsense. War is war. Murder is murder. If you don't know the difference it's probably too late, but ya never know.

We don't have to agree on anything much less everything. But if you support abortion, I'll treat you just like I treat that vile slime who brags about killing her kid and advocates it for others.

I still don't get the trolling part.

You're new. You'll get it if you last long enough.

But I can almost guarantee that no one will listen if you express yourself so.

Thanks for the unsolicited advice.

It's nonsense. It's like saying "liberal conservative". A BS term politicians use to attempt to play both sides in order to get votes.

BTW, I'm not what you, or most people, would call a conservative.
