It was me who didn't like the Hitler reference. I haven't been banned yet. You're talking to a wall with this post.

Nevertheless, I'll be happy to answer you.

zeroisanumber and I were having a discussion. In the context of that discussion, we were talking about "leaders" and, in the context of that discussion, it was understood that both of us were talking about leaders in the sense of good men who people will follow. In fact, in the context of that discussion we were talking about who would be a good leader for this nation in 2008. A certain amount of that was understood, but we were both reasonable enough to understand it.

We were having a disagreement about whether or not certain candidates fall into that category, but there was never any misunderstanding between us about the context in which we were using the term.

Now you're still going off on a rant about Hitler and a whole cast of characters who absolutely and in no way fit the term in that context.

I sincerely hope you are not representative of the caliber of poster who will be replacing all the folks who are being banned. You've added nothing but vitriol to what was otherwise a decent conversation, even if it was a disagreement.

Respond if you like. I'm leaving work and going home and won't be back to FR until tomorrow ... assuming I'm not banned when I try to log on. If you've anything to say in response to this, I'm sure I'll respond then.

Maybe you can even bait me into saying something nasty and getting myself kicked off of FR, and then you can go around all day long butting into conversations and ignoring context and defining words for yourself and posting things like "you don't understand leadership" and "which you don't understand leadership characteristics" and "son you are truely in the wrong place" and "Go read up on Leadership when you have a chance" to people who have no ability to respond.

I’m very well aware of which posts I responded to and conversly. It’s not hard to track back. I made a post to zeroisanumber and you answered it and took it from there. You could have opposed either your view or his, but didn’t.

You had how many chances to disagree? I even asked you if you disagreed with me. I even put it into the context you two were discussing. Maybe you just didn’t make your point. I can’t disagree with you because you haven’t said anything. You’re carrying on about banning and vitriol, etc.. Debate your point, or simply don’t answer someone elses post, would be something to consider.
