And vitriolic too. I mean, I always thought that personally attacking people who've done nothing but offered their opinion was a trait of Democrats and those to the left of them. But, if I say anything, no matter how truthful, that doesn't praise Palin (they've already anointed her President and the primary hasn't even begun) or toe the GOP line (no matter how unconstitutional), people go nuts and attack personally. My guy as of now is Ron Paul, and people say horrible things about him (on a personal level, not a policy level) and me and I have never resorted, in response, to their name-calling and the other childish stuff I've witnessed here. It's sad.
I get a kick out of the ones here - it's what keeps me coming back to such a hostile website. Amusing, in a sad sort of way.

You know, I hate to say it but I think Palin is about the best we can expect in 2012, at least as far as someone who has a realistic chance of winning goes.
There's a lot I like about her, but I suspect that she's weak on immigration and it looks like she's drank of the neocon kool-aide as far as foreign policy goes.
My guy as of now is Ron Paul...
Right there with you FRiend... probably not electable at the national level, we may not be able to force him to run this time, but he has my vote in 2012 if he wants it.

You're a better man than I am then... I take as much as I can, but sometimes I just have to throw a personal insult back at 'em.
Got to be careful though. I've seen more than one libertarian-leaning freeper take personal attack after personal attack, finally throw one back and then get immediately banned.
You know the mods and owner have their pet neocons here that you just have to take it from. I try to just ignore them.
Actually got called out by one guy yesterday ("you wanna do something about it... well, do ya - PUNK!). I was very amused.
I'm getting up near 50 & I've been sitting at a desk for 25 yrs now, but I'm a big, ugly, mean-looking guy, and the thought of the wet stain on the front of their pants that I'd see if I actually ran into one of these keyboard warriors makes me laugh every time I get "threatened" by one of them.
