Insults, the spelling police, more insults, and some vulgarity. I think that you've covered all the bases now except honest debate. Have you thought of trying that?
Like I stated before, I couldn't vote for Toomey(since I do not live in PA) but if I had the opportunity, I would have.
BTW, interesting that you abandon Toomey after he endorsed Specter immeddiately after the primary.
And Badray is right, I was at that meeting too. I never saw Pippy squirm so much. Specter was just as "despicable" (you have a spelling problem too sometimes, eh ?)
Well if you call someone on their fair weather friendness(i.e Badray going against Toomey's endorsement of Specter immediately after the primary) an insult, so be it.
The vulgarity is a natural progression of your back stabbing towards Toomey's own words.
Wow it only took you 223 replies to say such.
Whew you give credence to the definiton of skeptical, IMO, smokey.
I see you were correcting someone's spelling. Check your spelling of "immediately." It's not correct.
I have not abandoned him, I am angry with him. Just as I am angry with Bush but have not abandoned him. But I will not kiss his ring on everything he does. If I think they are heading in the wrong direction, I will try to correct their course, not go over the cliff with them.
Pippy isn't the issue, but I have addressed him in response to your last comment about him.
I posted. I did one ping. I did one other ping 4 hours later. I reply to comments made to me and "I'm spamming my thread".
Dane, you are a piece of work. Since you fail to address the theme of this thread, I will not be addressing you any more. Your intent seems to be to insult, obfuscate, and distract.
And the last thing that I want anyone to do is point out your own spelling error in the post to which I am responding. I wouldn't want to lower my response ration and disappoint you.
Discuss the merits or go away.
"LOL -- d@mn, that was good!"
It would have been better if my math was any good. Apparently, they changed it to be 54 - 35 = 19 and I never got the memo. LOL
But it is still a net gain.
Uh Ray you mentioned him in your screed, so he is an issue. Can't help it that you basically trash Pippy as his demo opponent did back in 2002.
The majority of Pennsylvania Republicans do NOT prefer Specter. Specter was on television, in the papers, at the unions, begging pro-union Dems to switch their party registration for this primary.
The majority of conservatives in our commonwealth despise Specter. I don't believe he will win in the general election. Of course it is just my opinion, but I believe the Bush team terribly miscalculated the showing Toomey would have (due mostly for the Right's despisal of Specter). PA conservatives feel betrayed by the president and he has certainly lost some worker bees this fall. The powerful pro-life PACs in PA are seriously considering asking people to vote for Hoeffel instead of abstaining or writing in a third party candidate.
I don't believe I can vote for Hoeffel, but you could put bamboo shoots under my fingernails and I will not pull that lever for Scottish law Specter.
Whew you give credence to the definiton of skeptical, IMO, smokey.
Are you saying I can't hear the same thing ? Or are you calling me a liar ? I am sure I could get numerous affidavits signed that saw it too.
These fringenutty clowns expect everybody to admire their Conservative principles as they vote for a Democrat with an ACU rating of 8.
Thank you for the correction. I have always admitted on FR that I am not the best speller or typist, but smokey's use of "principal" for "principle" is a basic misunderstanding of the word and should be corrected, IMO.
You're dreaming if you believe this. Many of Specter's most ardent supporters are registered Dems. Specter and Hoeffel have identical bases - rich limosine liberals and union members. Without a conservative network of support, I believe Arlen will lose in the Fall.
Is the emperor ever naked to you?
Can he do no wrong?
Do you know that you are still allowed to criticize politicians. At least up until 30 days before the election?
Specter's rating without his election years is almost as poor. If Specter wins this time around, he's too old and ridden with brain tumors to have a conservative year to bring up his average.
Uh no smokey, it only took you 223 replies before you admitted that you were there(supposedly, IMO).
BTW, calling for legal action on a fairly friendly FR thread, is the last hideout of a scoundrel, IMO.
smokey, please tell your 'FRiend' Dane that you were at the YR meeting, not the one that is the focus of this thread. He's confused.
Also tell him that I am not to blame for how he posts. If he chooses insults instead of debate, if he uses vulgarity rather than reason, those are his choices, not mine.
I'd tell, but we aren't on speaking terms. LOL
I know the difference, Dane . And I admit that I also err when typing in a hurry. so do others but they usually understand how it happens. But most people have the maturity to overlook it. Unfortunately I lowered myself once and did it too but I regret it. But if you want we can go through this whole thread and I will point out numerous errors you have made.
The problem is that it is YOU that don't seem to have an understanding of the word PRINCIPLE, or don't care about it.
