No, Jorge, there just gets to be a limit as to the time and energy I'm willing to spend on Anti-Conservative-Keyes posters in FR.

I noticed that your time and energy are VERY limited when it comes to addressing what posters actually say. Probably because you spend so much of it labeling them as "anti-conservatives" and lecturing them as to what topics they can or cannot comment on.

If you look closer, you will see that nothing in this calls Bush an evil person. In Keyes reaction, he viewed evil at work in his administration, particularly as it pertained to embryonic stem cell research. I was concerned about the decision, myself. Next question?

That would be like me saying that we don't have to be as worried about the evil of the DU but rather the GREATER evil of the posts of "unspun" that sneak behind FR lines.

BUT that is NOT calling unspun "evil".

Talk about tortured logic! Can't you come up with a better defense of Keyes than this?

The problem is that the "true believers" are the ones calling others names and questioning their 1)Conservatism 2)their mental state 3)their Republican CVs 4)their intelligence 5)their religious beliefs 6)their principles 7)their desirability of being on FR 8)their numbers 9) much more.

With few exceptions,those who have posted their concerns over Keyes' recent comments and his past words/actions,not to mention Ill. voting patterns,have NOT insulted those avidly cheering Keyes on.

Since people have and still do post replies and even entire threads about what they find wrong with President Bush and his wife and Mr. and Mrs. Cheney,and a variety of other GOPers/Conservatives here,without the threat of suspension and banishment,it is a manifestly new and different tact to start doing this with Keyes;but that's the way it is.

I suggest that ALL Keyes threads,from here on out,be only for those of his avid supporters.In that way,they can praise him till the cows come home,without ever having to look at any facts.

I takes this pledge here and now.Anyone else care to join me?

You have to have an appreciation for "nuance" Jorge. ;-'

BTW, I didn't wsy I agreed with him. I can disagree with an important conservative leader, including Bush and Keyes, while still supporting them.

Call me too agreeable, if you must. ;-'
