Man, so much hate and nastiness around here....(can't we all just get along?)

Cindi, you didn't make an effort to "get along" when you were here, and that didn't bother me in the least (I rather enjoyed it), so why play the peacemaker now?

It's amazing how would-be tigers morph into pussycats when they feel at a disadvantage.

NO DOUBLE STANDARDS!

Got to scrape . . that shit . . right off your shoes.

This thread is petering out. Where's Joe Montana?

Forever? lost in post-banishment oblivion, I'm afraid. I sure somebody, anybody, had his email addy. He was a great one.

This place needs a little sunshine.

In case you haven't noticed, we get along just fine until you show up. You and your pompous A$$ attitude.

LLOL! Your way with words cracks me up.

Oh, but I don't know if this place quite ever basked in "an intoxicating conservative love-vibe"... lol

Latest from JimRob.....

Thanks, Dutchy, I saw this last night. Zelig and I gave our very enthusiastic 'thumbs up' votes immediately to Jim (I nearly panicked when I saw the headline!). You didn't see our comments? You didn't read all 2,259 posts?! LOL This thread must have set an all-time record! Thanks for the reminder ping anyway - I'll take a look at some of the latest comments...

Joe Montana still lurks here. I'll flag him, just for you. He won't post; of that I'm sure.

Aahhhhhhh, such vicious, backbitting, gossip-mongering invectives against THE GUILD , which as an entity isn't here. One can only wonder WHY you loathe those women so.

Since I am speaking solely for myself, it is rather curious ( if not specious and silly ), to have you lump me in with a particular group. SHall I pay you the same curtisey , dear ?

I merely said that you aren't welcome here, and you're not. Not by MY doing ; by the owner of this site ... JIM ROBINSON ! Nowhere did I claim to have banned you / said that you are not welcome, and stay away on MY order. Just keep roght on twisting, spinning, and lying.

Either you are not nearly as clever as you suppose ( didn't it ever occure to you to tell your cohorts to NOT post your letters to them ? ) you are, or you are prevaricating. I do remember threads, which were just YOUR billious spewings, that claimed that you HAD asked for them to be posted. It was not just your opinings, it was also letters written TO you , by Jim Robinson, and letters TO him, by you.

Just a littel pearl lore, dear. FYI ... pearls will NOT turn black, if the wearer lies. Natural and cultured black pearls are VERY valuable ! Dyed ones aren't. : - )

Cool. Maybe he'll jump in on this thread for old time's sake, just for the hell of it. That would be fun.

No, I usually make an effort to 'get along' with people... even if they have opposing political views. (there's a difference between debating and fighting!)

But it seems to me that some people just can't be civilized if they disagree politically.

(I don't think I've morphed into a pussycat!)

If you want to stay safe, remember these axioms; Libertarians aren't wacky because they espouse open borders and free dope.

No libertarian worth the name espouses free dope. If you want dope, you'll have to pay for it like everyone else... :)

I don't "loathe those women so". I do not like the way some of the Guild seem to

1) elevate mere political disagreement into an apocolyptic personality clash where the unfortunate non-Guild-thinker is persistently baited into posting something, anything which Guilder can hysterically report as abuse to Jim Rob for the premeditated purpose of forcing the poor unfortunate's banishment.

2) delight in defamation, slurs, ad hominem attacks etc. against those with whom they disagree.

3) regard themselves as immune from the same rules they insist must apply to everyone else -- with a vengence.

ALL

I'm just posting a couple of general questions on 'conservative' views to anyone who remains before I get some shut-eye:

I'm using 'conservative' deliberately here instead of pubbie (neo, paleo, statist, whatever the "classes" are today), libertarian, etc.

If it is generally believed that the first amendment protects freedom of speech and the press, then does it necessarily follow that a private individual or company engaged in any speech related activity must provide an outlet for opposing views? If so, then must that individual bear the financial obligation of distributing opposing viewpoints?

May I choose, of my own free understanding, to give money to any individual or company so that they may use it as they please?
