No, it seems to be a pathetic cover from which to launch one. If you don't like flames, don't make inflammatory comments that have nothing to do with the thread. You're the one who poured the gasoline, as you well understood when you begged not to be flamed.
Unless Mitt Romney was running your local drug store, what you contributed has nothing to do with the subject at hand, but was merely a gratuitous swipe at Romney's co-religionists. It has no more to do with Romney than Fred Phelps' actions have to do with Mike Huckabee, a fellow Baptist. There isn't a candidate in the race that doesn't share a religion with people of poor moral character.
I, for one, am entirely sick of the lowball innuendo attacks on all the candidates' characters that are becoming so prevalent lately around here. It doesn't matter if you read a Fred thread, a Mitt thread, a Paul thread, or whoever; all are infested with this sort of slimy debate tactic that should have been left behind at puberty by reasoning adults.
Look, you seem to be a bright person. I am at a loss to understand why such a bright person chooses to accuse and bait. It doesn’t make sense.
