I didn't mention you by name nor did I imply you one bit.

If what I said struck a nerve, then so be it.

Typical day on Free Republic. A good percentage of this forum will trash anyone who doesn't hold their narrow minded view of what a "conservative" should be. They are the same ones who always claim they support the President but most never have and either do not vote or vote third party.

It's an implied critisism that those upset are only the usual discontents. It has ben spoken not only by you, but others. And I have had my fill of it.

Do I take it personally? Absolutely.

The reality is that this nomination was greeted quite differently than the Roberts nomination, when instaneous cheers arose. Look up the Live Thread that day. The reality is that a far wider segment of the base that IS very supportive of this President was not happy with this selection. they are not of the mindset to trash the man, but they are expressing their disappointment and they have the right to do so without being linked to the ones you refer to.
