To: Gabz
The hate and viciousness of posters around here of late has been horrendous.

I agree with you Gabz! I no longer read threads about Hunter or Thompson because of the comments of their supporters. I'm sure I miss information in some of the articles because of it but it's gotten almost to the point those threads are as contentious as the religious threads and I avoid those like the plague. Not only may I be missing information but there's been quite a bit of posting which has attributed certain stances to some of the candidates which upon research was untrue.

I know politics aren't for the faint of heart but a little courtesy can go along way. After all, once the primaries are over and we have a candidate, we're going to need to unite behind him and help get him elected.

Criticism and disagreement are a LONG way from hate. Hate is tooooo strong a word to be using in this discussion.

I do agree that the Thompson and Hunter supporters get carried away, but to the point of hating.

I don’t think you are missing anything. I came here originally for the education into Constitutional, and conservative principles, and have been richly rewarded, but I’m like you, contention is not courtesy and my reason for being here becomes moot. One has to search a little harder for the educational content. While being able to filter the unpleasant stuff. Thanks for the educational comments.
