One of my best friends was banned from FR because he called him “Jorge Bush” during the immigration reform sham.

Maybe FR can reinstate some of these people who called it as they saw it on W.

There are probably too many of them for JR to keep track of. ;)

I think what is called for is a bit more tolerance for opposing points of view. I run a forum where libs and cons get along famously and have since 2005. Friendships have even been formed. You don’t have to agree on everything or compromise your belief systems but you can always express your POV with basic respect to the other guy’s. Let the free marketplace of ideas reign.

Just as in a typical church there are people who are mature in their faith and people who are newbies and people who come who don’t know the Lord at all. If you alienate the newbies and the people who aren’t sure where they stand but are looking for more information then you are really just arrogantly tooting your own horn and it’s obvious to everyone that the real problem is EGO.
