And it’s some irony for anyone to accuse those of us who won’t vote for Cochran, who blames conservatives for obstructing Hussein’s commie agenda, as “sleeper leftists”.

LOL! No kidding. I held my nose for Romney too.

All the accusations being flung by these people are falling on deaf ears. They don't seem to understand the mess in Mississippi is different. NOW, its personal......and the GOPe are the ones who made it that way.

I didn't 'call you a name', I said the debating tactics you were using were Alinsky's.

Can you not discern the difference?

BTW

And yet they continue to post their bilge here on FreeRepublic. I guess they're bankrolled enough by the GOPe to keep on going, hoping if they through enough of it on the wall, something will stick.

No. It raises more questions about your motives.

I did not ever say I supported Cochran. You made that up. It is your myopia that prevents you from seeing anything but seething anger and keeps you attacking anyone and everyone that happens to pose a thought that is not exactly like yours.

Your situation is the classic “when your solution is a hammer, every problem is a nail” caused by your anger.

As I have said more than once, I think Cochran cheated and he has a chance at getting the victory taken away b/c he’s been caught. I have also said that McDaniel blew it by not aggressively going after black conservatives. I have also said that Cochran will win unless huge numbers of conservatives stay home. I have also said it would not surprise me if that happened. I have also said that it would be better if we were able to win the senate - irrespective of what happens in MS.

But I never said I supported Cochran. Again, that’s your problem.

LOL! No kidding. I guess the part they haven’t figured out is that some of us are already backing away from the stench.

Yes, and now I'm saying you're posting like an idiot 8th grader.

I did not call you a name mind you - I just said you were using idiot 8th grader tactics.

You can tell the difference, can't you?

Hi B.A.,

I agree. $17 TRILLION in “public” debt is wayyyyy past “unsustainable”.

The problem is, if (when?) the American economy collapses, where do we go? I’m afraid that the coming new “Dark Age” will be global. How can I protect my family? Even a “little”?

And I think whatever time we have to fix the insanity in DC is fast running out. I’m afraid that, if the top banana gets our next Senate to allow him add a few more hard-left Justices to our Supreme Court, there will be no peaceful way to push out America’s “First President for Life”.

Some folks seem to think that “sending a message” to folks who won’t bother to read that message is a good strategy. I say that strategy didn’t work so well in Vietnam. Why should it work now?

There are times when anger is a perfectly rational, the only rational, response. This is one of them.

Listen to this phone call and tell me the GOPe is interested in slowing the march to insanity in DC:

http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2014/06/22/thad-cochran-desperation-update-listen-to-robocall-from-pro-cochran-pac-desperately-asking-democrats-to-vote-in-mississippi-primary/

I got this phone call. Certainly left me with the impression that Cochran will be working WITH Obama when he returns to DC. That hardly sounds like ‘slowing down the insanity’, does it?

A more concise description of the political views of the GOPe candidate can be found here:

Certainly I can, but I'm not the one doing the whining about it, am I?

----

BTW - Since trolls hanging out on FR is such common knowledge, why did you feel it necessary to make the statement?

It would be like posting 'Water is wet' in the middle of a debate....it does nothing but distract and deflect from the subject at hand. Two other well-known debating tactics of Alinsky

So why post it in the first place, hmmmmm? Inquiring minds want to know.

It’s because I wanted to point out that trolls on FR are actively encouraging this behavior.

I can’t believe I had to tell that.

If you don’t support Cochran, then what are you arguing for? The only thing I could ever give Cochran is my vote, and that he won’t get.

Sorry Cobol2Java, this anger is misdirected.

It should be directed elsewhere.

My goodness, you seem obsessed with anger. It’s not healthy.

I am not arguing for anything. I'm asserting that Cochran cheated and may lose his victory, I'm asserting that McDaniel blew it by not aggressively going for black conservatives, I'm asserting that Cochran will win unless huge numbers of conservatives stay home, I assert that this may happen, and I assert that it would be better if Rs take the senate, irrespective of MS.

I'm not arguing on behalf of or against anything.

Jeez!

I’m not angry, I’m astounded at the myopic, angry response to my assertions.

I’m sure DU has links to this conversation laughing at it!

I’m sorry you are doing so poorly at winning your arguments. It’s unfortunate. I do hope you are able to learn in this forum.
