Wow, Texas Dawg was a du troll?

I'm pretty sure he was some sort of troll. He didn't have the sheer liberalism of a DU troll, but he often remarked that it was fun to provoke people on this forum.

That is the classic definition of a troll.

[Lazamataz]

Yes, you mentioned that the other day and it's a good point and doesn't carry the baggage of a doom and gloom mindset or hint at an agenda, political or otherwise, IMO.

Y'know, I didn't like ya when we first met. But -- besides being curmugeonly -- I'm starting to like ya more and more. We may not think alike, but that's okay.

Didn't we put you in your proper place a few weeks back, as I recall? You're relapsing into you old self again. Go back and review the old threads for a refresher.

Weell, gee, guess you sure can't handle it when folks call you when you do little more than have your hand out.

So now, those who don't want to have to subsidize the whining of folks like you are trolls? Take your "soak the rich" attitude and shove it.

Truth hurts, and I guess Texas_Dawg got too close to it for your comfort.

Texas_Fraud didn't get suspended for hissing his nonsense. He got suspended for falsely claiming I was a racist.

So "shove it" yourself.

[hchutch]

Oh, and you're going to make me?

[Lazamataz]

Oh, and you're going to make me?

You are such a weenie. I really have no desire to talk to you. Buh bye.

[JNB]

I owe you a beer. The "dawg" getting suspended shows there is some justice.

[JNB]

Texas_dawg saying the truth? Please.... Even in the more recent threads, other members who share his views did not step up to the plate and defend him. No one on his ping list stepped up, thats for sure.
