I suppose you'll call it distraction when I point out that your statement belies the statement I was replying to.
No, we insult you because you make stupid statements,
What's even more interesting is how the "Holier-than-thou" rush to defend "G3k" when he's being taunted for a mistake he wouldn't even acknowledge for TWO days, but nary a word was heard from them when "G3k" savagely attacked "Junior" for CORRECTLY pointing out Gore's error regarding his claim for "wildly elliptical" planetary orbits. "Gore" had the audacity to slime "Junior" by saying "You don't know beans about Astronomy." Where were the "self-appointed defenders of propriety, decorum, and civility" while this was happening? Where are they now? MIA, I guess, ....... except when they feel like defending the indefensible.

It isn't the stupid mistakes. It's the way Holy Warriors--locked as they are in the never-ending struggle against a vast conspiracy of evil, dumb people-- never, never, never eat the crow when it's warm. They never eat it at all. They ignore, or they imagine that they escape under a barrage of distraction. The inability to concede the painfully obvious is the joke, and it's a great one. It's a guy dancing around naked pretending he's got the greatest set of new clothes ever. The whole public pathology has fascinated me for years, but it's starting to get old.

There is a sub-set of lunatic loons who appear to wish the ... end of American society (( link )) --- as we (( once -- 1st )) know it. Like the Nazis and the communists in Weimar Germany, they have a great deal in common as potential destroyers of the social fabric.
I have engaged in several debates in the last few days, and I admire FreeRepublic as a forum for the free expression of ideas, but the overwhelming presence of this bunch of loons is very off-putting.
Lenin is supposed to have said that capitalists would sell him the rope by which they were to be hung. The “anarcho-loons” on this forum would not bother to sell the rope but provide it as a public service.
