Welcome to FR. Who wrote your profile page? You might want to ask them to correct some of those typos. Liberal should not be spelled c-o-n-s-e-r-v-a-t-i-v-e.
As El Rushbo would say - our new FRiend, laurie_d, seems to be clearly suffering from SMS (Severe Moderate Syndrome)....LOL
And you responded

Hmm. I'm sure I'll get slammed for this as well (it seems to be your MO) but since I consider myself to be a conservative in the technical sense, not the fanboy sense, I cannot see how you can identify someone as politically liberal based upon these statements (and the GP statement). Perhaps that is because you call someone a 'liberal' when you want to squelch discussion that you oppose not purely on factual grounds. It is apparent that you do not like Rudy. It is not apparent that the parent or GP post supported Rudy or, more importantly, liberal causes. Your 'newbie' harassment statement is particularly vile. It only makes people think that "FR eats their young."
