I once went over to DU for a week and tried that. They were fairly nice to me. Then some idiot got mad at some innocuous thing I wrote while trying to be civil.

I've trolled for years at DKos and they don't have a clue. It is so easy to sew the seeds of violent discord over there.

Fascinating. Koppel always seemed less leftest than the average news guy. I guess you cannot rise to his position without being a hard-core lib or else oblivious. Thanks for sharing that story.

“It is so easy to sew the seeds of violent discord over there.”

Can you give an example of how you do this?

I’m not a bit surprised at what happened at the “open” town hall media event.

Another tactic some of the congresscritters will be using this month is “phony” in more ways than one. There will be “telephone townhall meetings” where they will take questions during a certain time period. Just heard that Mike Ross has two such “meetings” planned.

The reason is obvious. They get their message out, and “the angry mob” does not.
