If you have a problem you are welcome to take it up with me directly.

OK.

I understand you are a help in fundraising for FR.

The rules on FR are... No profanity, no personal attacks.

You violating those rules repeatedly has caused some donors to quit sending money to FR. If these posters you personally attack are such a problem on FR, then Jim should just BAN THEM. That would go further in encouraging those who are here to donate.

Even you should have the wisdom (and courtesy) to see that following those rules (set the example) would HELP FR get better funded.

How can you claim to be a 'conservative' if you use profanity and personal attacks on others to 'win' during a debate ? How can you criticize TRUMP or CRUZ for using profanity and personal attacks, if you do the same thing ?

Thanks for the straight forward approach.

I understand you are a help in fundraising for FR.

No, I'm not. There is a FReepathon team and I'm not on it.
Closest I come to that is regular contributions.

You violating those rules repeatedly has caused some donors to quit sending money to FR.

I do skate a bit close to the edge sometimes, it's true, and I probably ought to do less of it.
Anyone who uses that as an excuse not to donate either wasn't going to do so in the first place or is pretty darn sensitive and weak.

If these posters you personally attack are such a problem on FR, then Jim should just BAN THEM.

I've never called for anyone to be banned. Most of the folks I get crossways with aren't a "problem" on FR per se.. they just get return fire.
Others might be folks I just flat out don't like.. attitudinally, positionally.. it varies. Except for blogpimps. They all need to die in a fire.

How can you claim to be a 'conservative' if you use profanity and personal attacks on others to 'win' during a debate ?

I'm not aware of having debated anything with anyone lately.

How can you criticize TRUMP or CRUZ for using profanity and personal attacks, if you do the same thing ?

I haven't criticized either of them for anything.
