Now you are being childish. Threatening to tell the teacher or what?

I hardly think Jim Robinson is interested in banning honest discussion about the virtues of one candidate over another.

Honest discussion? You and your buddies have done nothing but troll every other candidate’s threads trashing them and THEN promoting Perry. It was especially disgusting on the Cain threads.

You know, after this utter demolition by Doughty One of one of your trademark Perrybot-mode babbling nonsense posts, I hoped that maybe you would come to the realization that babbling nonsense Perrybot-mode posts were neither behooving to you nor doing much for your candidate.

Guess that hope was misplaced.

First of all, CW pinged me to this thread, while betlittling my position that folks should start making the case for their conservative choice instead of bashing the others.

Second, I did not ping Jim to this thread, hardly the sign of me wanting to get anyone banned. I just asked CW if she was willing to belittle Jim's position on positive campaigning versus negative campaigning against conservatives on FR, given that it closely mirrors mine.

And I have gotten my answer - she has used all kinds of nonsensical responses to pretend the 800 pound gorilla is not taking the same position I am. Because it is the last thing she (and apparently you) want to hear, because you use FR for your Perrybot litter box and don't want that to change.

And it's clear why - your Perrybot modus operandi has been to use FR to unleash Perry campaign talking points on other candidates - while you pretend otherwise - in a lame attempt at astroturfing. It's slimy and low. And if you don't think negative attacks in the primary don't matter in the general, recall that it was Al Gore's 1988 primary campaign that introduced the world to Willie Horton. This stuff comes back around in the general and will haunt the eventual GOP nominee.

It's time to stick to making the case for your guy instead of bashing the others. A simple yet principled point that only campaign hacks and those overly-enamored of their opinions don't grasp when we need to find a candidate to stand against the specter of Romney, Paul and Obama.

BTW, did you even bother reading Jim's post? I would think you would take a few minutes and give it proper consideration in Jim's house.
