That's exactly what I thought. This "Max" person joined FR yesterday. I suspect we're dealing with a DU troll here who joined FR with intent to stir up trouble.
Trolls tend to lecture like drama queens.
Look mutton head, have you noticed how many agree with me? Or is that too subtle?
As to my conservative credentials, perhaps you ought to go over to "FREE CONSERVATIVES" and see the YEARS of posts I have made as Max Parrish.
Although it is none of your business, let me say my joining is not new. Several years ago I joined under my actual name and have posted on a few occasions.
More recently I thought to talk about this issue, and I decided that was not really private, so I rejoined with a more lucid name than "dc-zoo"...i.e. Max Parrish the same login I use at FREE CONSERVATIVES.
So after you and Rose show that you are not made of the same slander inspired stuff as DUers and liberals, investigate. Go to FREE CONSERVTIVES, get a profile, notice my seniority. Then, come back and apologize.
I've been here for years, and I agree with him.
We had a chance to get someone like a Scalia, and we went for the safe choice...I'm disappointed.
