OK, you know what “Beating a dead horse” means, right? It used to mean that someone kept b*tching about something that had already received plenty of negative comments, as if killing an animal that was already dead.

Nowadays, it usually means that you see 2 parties argue and not agree about something, and then you see the same arguments again, and they don’t agree, repeat, repeat, repeat. Saying someone is “beating a dead horse” does not imply that you agree or disagree with his arguments, but more like you are tired of hearing them.

Several FReepers have complained that, no matter what the subject is, “McCain haters” hijack the thread.
