He is an angry purist who is trying to turn the board against all those who do not fit his narrow-minded definition of conservative.

FReepers don't attack other FReepers on a personal level. On several posts you have made this kind of ad hominum attack which is both poor form and against forum rules. Also, trying to turn the forum against someone who's been around here awhile and is respected is really quite questionable behavior.

You certainly don't have to march in lockstep with anybody here - there are Sarah foes and (very few) McCain supporters but the *manner* in which you argue is *very* important. FReepers debate, they don't fight. (Well, at least we try...)

In what way is that statement an ad hominem? I didn't call anyone an idiot, a troll, or a jerk. Those arguing with me do have a very narrow definition of what it is to be a conservative at least according to who they will and will not support. rabscuttle has attacked both Sarah Palin and her supporters her quite viciously in the past. Why does he get a free pass?
