Freedumb, do you simply enjoy arguing for argument's sake? You're ranting on and on like a petty child, and wasting everyone's time.

Perhaps that's your modus operandi. Challenge, disrupt, distract, assert, divert, accuse, defend, deny -- rinse and repeat.

What exactly is the point of your incessant presence on Palin threads? Do you really think you're winning her supporters over to the anti-Palin side? Do you believe that if you just spend enough time arguing your views of her, that it will somehow shift the viewpoints of 80+% of Freepers? Do you really think that you're helping your chosen candidate by waging this crusade of yours?

Honestly. I don't support your chosen candidate, but I also don't go to every Cain thread and start brawls with his supporters. Same goes for every other candidate that has a supportive network on Free Republic.

I mean, what is the point of that? They're grown adults who have the same access to information about every candidate that I do. They've got every right to examine the candidates and make up their own minds, based upon their own reasoning and prejudices. Once I've had my say a time or two with them, there's little more to discuss. They're going to make their own choice, based upon their own perspective. In time, they may shift their views of the candidates, based upon performance or events, but that's for them to do - not me.

So, again. What exactly is your purpose in battling with Palin supporters on this website, day after day, after day, after day?

I agree with Windflier. This crap is getting old.

Yours is a reasonable question (with a little anger tossed in, but that is understandable).

It is because I find the blind spot for some Gov. Palin supporters to be problematic for Conservatives in general, and, IMHO, supporters of Gov. Palin.

If I can get 1 or 2 FReepers to pause and consider the POTENTIAL realities of Gov. Palin’s current position and activities, be it her movie, her possibilities of running and/or her messing with the MSM, then that I have accomplished my objective.

I am not the enemy — I am the Devil’s Advocate at worst.

I really think I am doing good here — even for supporters of Gov. Palin.

I have grave concerns about what her candidacy may mean, but since I can no longer express them, at least I can help people keep their eyes clear.

Thanks for taking it down a notch and asking instead of just reacting. And I do suggest you review the responses to my posts and ask whether you would support a candidate whose supporters merely yell down anyone who asks questions.

I think that sums things up.

Good morrow to all of you.
