I disagree with the opinion of darkwolf regarding COD. But, I support his/her right to freely express their opinion on this forum. As much as I would expect him/her to defend my right to express my disagreement.

He's got the right to his opinion and the right to express it. I've little faith that he'd defend your opinion if you supported O'Donnell. I've only been jabbing him in response to his attacks on O'Donnell supporters.

There are many temptations of incivility toward some posters that we disagree. Especially when we find their opinion obnoxious, and inflammatory, to our own view. The secret is to remain civil, in spite of the aggressions we might feel obligated to express, toward their motives, and/or ill-founded belief systems.

I'll assume you've not noticed he and "Palladin" use Wikipedia and "Gawker." Wikipedia is not a reliable source concerning conservatives and Gawker is a homosexual activist site. Any alarm bells going off, yet?

I'll admit, I went over the top. Alright, I went WAY over the top. I reached escape velocity and I am currently passing Jupiter and heading toward deep space.

But I degress.

I've always had an issue with bullies and have taken bizarre delight in pummelling them. It's usually better to remain civil; unfortunately, you can't reason with the unreasonable.

But thank you, takenoprisoner, for your well written note. You've made a lot of good points. I'll take your advice and tone it down a bit.

Prost!

And snitching isn’t cool either.

For someone who keeps sending me emails full of rudeness and zero facts and an accusation that I am obsessed, you are exhibiting some strange behavior.

Jim Rob sent me an email which I chose not to read. Why I did that doesn’t matter, but the message was clear. I stopped posting about this person and moved on. Please see my posting history for today (my “day” starts much later than most, so there may be some overlap) and you will see I got the message and respected the request.

Now, you have posted to me about things I posted a day ago. Why would you do this if all you wanted was for me to stop posting this material? Are you looking for a fight? Are you looking for me to post more of those things? Why would you do that if you truly don’t want such things to be posted?

Based on your personal emails to me, which I respectfully request you stop sending, you have some issues.

I was asked to stop. It’s not my site so I don’t get to decide what is free speech and what is restricted, what is acceptable discourse and what is not. I have no beef with that. I have an opinion, but no one is interested in it.

I posted the facts on this person, not for some imagined personal reasons but because I value conservatism, and don’t want the MSM to have yet another took with which to savage us. I am no longer posting those facts, because they disturb some people who are her fans.

I have written this rather long post because while I have followed the request, I don’t want anyone to think that this means that certain voices in this party are going to be allowed to shout down principled opposition. All you’ve done is gotten me to follow the site owner’s desires. As I have been coming here for nine years, I have no choice but to respect those, because whatever my differences with him, I respect all he has done for conservatism, and all the information his site has provided for me over the years.

I’ve left this subject alone. You, claiming I have some issue, cannot.

That’s your problem. Please stop trying to make it mine.

Thank you.

took = tool

P.S. You’ve again posted the “wikipedia” and “Gawker” line you used in your email to me, and I will repeat what I said there, because of your insinuation:

You haven’t disputed the FACTS, which you would have if you could, so you attacked the source.

That says a lot about your position re: the truth.

LOL good answer.

Bottom line, we are right on this. Our detractors here are in bed with the likes of RINO Rove, Bill Maher, Chrissy Matthews, Joy Behar, SNL, and a host of other liberal and RINO elitists who worked feverishly to defeat her.

Again, whatever personal baggage she may have carried, and, from my perspective, none of it amounting to a hill of re-fried beans, she was the Republican nominee. She had a right to expect support from her fellow Republicans. If they chose not to, for whatever their reason, then all they had to do was keep their self righteous RINO mouths shut.

Prost! Prost!
