Ah, so mentioning his breaking his solemn pledge is now a “whine”? Ah well, if integrity means nothing to you, so be it. You don’t want responses, quit posting to mine. It’s a free internet, and you do not get to decide the who what or why. And hey, if the whole Tancredo ‘08 thing does not work out don’t worry, there is always Lyndon LaRouche.

You don’t want responses, quit posting to mine.

Unsolicited, you've initiated three different posts to me, three different times, on three different threads - one of them that goes back at least a couple of weeks without anyone posting on it.

Ah, so mentioning his breaking his solemn pledge is now a “whine”?

It is when you continuously post it after I've already told you, repeatedly now, that I'm not interested in it.

if the whole Tancredo ‘08 thing does not work out don’t worry, there is always Lyndon LaRouche.

Why don't you tell me now - since you continue to ignore the question - what's wrong with Tom Tancredo's platform? On which issues do you disagree with him?

if integrity means nothing to you, so be it

Tancredo's decision to seek reelection - and the overwhelming support of his constituents when he did so - doesn't demonstrate a lack of integrity. He explained why he stayed in Congress. In 2004 - when he broke the pledge and ran for reelection to a fourth term - the illegal immigration issue was still virtually ignored by most. If you look at the last three years, you see the growth in the issue - largely as a result of the efforts Tancredo has made.

Your gripe with him is something beyond the term limits issue. Personally, I think you don't like conservative candidates.

You said to me that you don't pay attention to screen names or who you're posting to, but I do. When someone posts repeated attacks against a candidate I like, after I've already told them I'm uninterested, I tend to check out who it is. I've looked a little at your posting history.

Two things stick out: Fred Thompson is the "flavor of the month" according to you. You also said that we need candidates with "moderate appeal."

You won't comment on where you disagree with Tancredo on issues because that would expose your moderate leanings.

Now, in response, why don't you post the same foolishness about term limits.
