If you really read what I wrote, you would note that I said that this internal debate is healthy and good for conservatism. We prosper when we expouse our views.
There is a difference between debate and name-calling. One will lead to our future success. The other will lead to our diminishment.
Take ANY thread on Free Republic and you will see the persoanl attacks and name-calling originate from and mostly come from the "I Agree With George Bush No Matter How Liberal He Becomes" camp.
Those who offer intelligent and well-worded views that are true conservative thought are the ones who get the name-calling directed at them. The Bush cheerleaders (that is not name-calling but represents their actions) who ignore the facts are the ones who do all the name-calling.
This is fact and can be proved by doing an audit of ANY thread on Free Republic.
Another proof is the name-calling directed at conservative icons like Michelle Malkin, Robert Bork, Ann Coulter, George Will, Peggy Noonan, and a HUGE list of other prominent conservatives.
Don't give me this crap. You need to direct your thread to just one camp at Free Republic with your request--the "Pro-Republican At Any And All Costs Even Though The Republican Party Is Going Hard Left" camp--they are the ones who launch the personal attacks. It is very one-sided.
