“And frankly my dear, I could give a damn what the opposition may say about us.”

Too bad. Ward Churchill thinks the same way. With that attitude, you’ll both lose every time.

I’m rude? For calling out your baseless allegations?

Go ahead... tuck your tail and run. You can’t dig your hole much deeper.

Have a nice day.

“Baseless allegations, tuck .. tail.”

Wow, some are worthy, some not.
I’ll have a great evening, thank you.

You must be living in a fantasy world if you believe that anyone really cares about what is posted here beyond posters and lurkers. Do you really believe that the Democrats are monitoring the site and using the quotes against us? Are you monitoring the DU or any other sites and then using any of their comments from their anonymous posters? Do you believe the GOP is?

FR's most useful function is exposing Dem lies and uncovering the information to prove it.

Too bad. Ward Churchill thinks the same way. With that attitude, you’ll both lose every time.

Ward Churchill is a known persona. I am anonymous so it is very difficult to attribute anything to me. And anyone can post to FR as long as they abide by the rules, even Leftists and liberals. Your logic leaves a lot to be desired.

Yes, “baseless.” You referred to an unidentified post made by an unidentified poster on an unidentified thread as justification for calling people on this thread emotional children and other less-than-flattering comments.

And “tuck tail” is what an animal does when they lose a fight, in this case you saying you “bye bye” and throwing out one more insult on your way out the door.

Mature? ROFL!

LOL, that's that mirror thingie I was talking about.

I love it when posters project their “attributes” on others.

Yes, that is what I mean, and using f*** and other intellectual ways of expressing disagreement with this public servant is only demeaning the credibility of the poster’s intellect. Can’t take a bit of constructive criticism, I see.

So you agree that the words quoted to you that YOU yourself used make this website look bad?

So now you can say, "My work is done here?" as you take your own counstuctive criticism?

After that reply to the crowd McCain went to DC and signed that 1st Crapola TARP bill. So much for the ‘Maverick’ going to DC, naming names and making the pols ‘famous’. He proved he was one of them with gutlesss non-leadership. After that he was toast!

Frankly, you could be a lurker from the Left. I as do many of us older Freepers find all McCain bashing boring now, and am convinced that there is an ulterior motive. If not, you are wasting your time.

I resent that...suggesting that I'm a leftist.

Fantasy world? LOL. Hardly. You don’t know who you are talking to, and frankly, I shouldn’t be wasting so much time here. Not only the Dems do, but O’Reilly used comments from FR (and DU) on his show several times during the last election cycle to point out how many inane, rudely expressed opinions there were both sides. Essentially, he pointed out my argument to a national audience, that rude, classless comments only showcase the ignorance of the user. Hate is a waste of time.

“I am anonymous so it is very difficult to attribute anything to me.”

That doesn’t preclude you from losing in life with the wrong attitude you expressed. Work on your own logic before you criticize someone else’s. I’m out of time.

You shouldn’t resent it, the Left is loving what you are doing.

Oh how classic!

You "older freepers" that signed up a couple of years ago (and in this century of all things!) really reveal your egotistical narcissistic nature.

Us new posters bow to your "seniority" as proof of your wisdom and knowledge.

I know of hundreds of FR posters that signed up in the last year that could run circles around you intellectually and politically.

And aren't trying to stop reasoned debate. (Look it up)

BTW, the accusation of "bashing" when posting facts about those that are RINOs and non conservative republicans is right out of the liberal playbook.

Classic Alinsky/Ayres/Liberal/Obama tactic of projection.

Hold a mirror up to what anyone says who show classic symptoms of Histrionic personality disorder and posts from a base of cognitive dissonance and your will see them for what they really are.

*shrug*

It's not the first time that I have encountered such tactics here. During the election cycle, I was smacked around daily in such ways for daring to publicly oppose McCain.

Wow, you believed that phony O'Reilly hit piece on Free Republic?

How much more can you out yourself before you implode?

Oh, and ahhh...didn't you say you tucked your tail between your legs and left this thread?

You know, dem sites can use that to show that "old time Freepers" (that would be your description of yourself) are weak and can't debate each other very well.

Don't feel bad, Rabs. She called everyone leftists ("no better than Dims") in post #80.

Y'all just don't get it. I'm not for McCain, LOL. I'm just disappointed in the vituperative, emotional display here on FR, from those so quick to condemn others for the same behavior. Years ago, this type of thing was a slap in the face here, now it is the norm. Do you all think that it is a step in the right direction for the cause, to lower yourselves to your opponents’ level? The rants you all display are no better than the Dims, no better at all. You mar any credibility you could have with uncontrolled language and hate. You now are no better than the other side. It must be a generational thing, but it certainly isn't improving your position with more rational thinkers. And yes, it is obsessive and childish.

Phew! (Doncha love it when they use the "hate" word?)

Note that this on-topic mature post (/s) was in response to my comment that McCain calling the swift-boat vets "dishonorable and dishonest" was truly despicable (directly related to her post).

I never hear conservatives use the word “hate.”

I do, however, hear liberals using such language, both online and offline.

Yep. If you are for enforcing immigration laws, you hate immigrants and are a racist. If you think marriage is between a man and a woman, you hate gays and are a homophobe. If you don’t embrace FTAs 100%, you hate capitalism and are a protectionist. If you question interventionist foreign policy, you are a muslim lover and hate America. If you are criticize RINOs, you hate them... or you are bashing them and supporting Obama.

I know I missed a few.

And how influential is that? O'Reilly has an audience of 3.5 million and most of them are Reps. The Dems have demonized the entire Fox network.

That doesn’t preclude you from losing in life with the wrong attitude you expressed. Work on your own logic before you criticize someone else’s. I’m out of time.

LOL. You are a real piece of work. Your arrogance is only exceeded by your ignorance.
