I was on the very first posts when Miers was nominated, and the Pro-Miers side was immediately condescending, dismissive, and began the namecalling. One need only do a search for the first threads. Any of us who simply voiced doubts, particularly when Reid seemed happy, were called the Donner Party, DU trolls, traitors, closet liberals, and a host of more personal insults.

I was posting from the very first on the Miers threads, and while there were many fair posters in the anti-Miers camp, I cannot think of one pro-Mier poster who threw insults. Miers was called everything in the book including, dumb, a lesbian and Caligula's horse. Please provide me the links to 5 posts of those who were pro-Miers and called names. Once again, I want to thank the anti-Miers posters who were fair.

Can we agree that most posters were reasonable, some weren't, it's over, now let's go kick some socialist ass?

In battle, when opposing armies are mounted cavalry, the number of horses is equal to the number of horses *rses.

Seems it is also true for FReepers;)

I suppose we will just have to disagree regarding our recollection then. I do certainly remember many classless insults of Miers on my side. But however baseless (no pun intended) and rude these claims were, they were not an insult to the freepers supporting her. Silly posts attempting to say we should now vote for Hillary, however idiotic, were not direct insults to freepers supporting Miers.

I will grant that my side immediately attacked Bush and Miers. Then your side attacked US, not JRB or someone we supported, but us. There is a difference between insulting someone you support and insulting you, at least in my opinion.
