Its a serious charge being compared to one of the most anti-conservatives ever to post on this forum. Think about it.

It isn't who you endorse that 's being compared. It's your tactics in doing so. Calcowgirl is correct: you are employing the exact, same "Us or Them, you're no conservative" rhetoric that FO employed constantly. Lots of the candidate partisans are full of the same tactics, from all sides.

As Calcowgirl points out, we are supposed to be adults making informed adult decisions. Personal attacks do nothing to further those decisions. Scorched earth vituperance is offensive, no matter whom employs it, let alone when it is dumped on fellow conservatives whom you might well want at your back in the General elections. GSGOP was a scarred vet here in the Arnie/McClintock wars, and has earned respect from the rest of the "Ilk" for his opinions on the subject. I don't recall your contributions at that time.

Think about that.

Thanks Lex. You said that much more diplomatically than I did. FWIW, ReaganMan was a very avid anti-Arnold during the Recall posting very compelling arguments as to why Schwarzenegger should be opposed and withstanding some of the worst flames. I learned a lot from him at the time.

RM, I regret the manner in which I delivered the message (but not the message itself as Lex describes better). For that, I apologize.

I don't think we've ever exchanged replies before. Now I know why. You don't know a damn thing about politics.

>>>>>It isn't who you endorse that 's being compared. It's your tactics in doing so.

My tactics are to see the best conservative candidate gets the nomination. Not some liberal, centrist or moderate. You can get a better insight into my political reasoning at post #60.

For your information, FO was supporting two liberals. First Schwarzenegger and then Giuliani. His posts in support of Rooty is what got him banned. I don't support liberals of any stripe, nor do I condone liberalism of any kind.

>>>>>I don't recall your contributions at that time.

Looks like you don't know a damn thing about me either. In the 2003 recall election, I supported conservative Tom McClintock over the liberal Ahnold. I took as much abuse from the Harpies, as anyone who dared to oppose Ahnold. Maybe more. And I'm proud of it too.

Now I'm supporting conservative Fred over liberal Rooty and I'm proud of that too.

Forgot one thing.

Anyone defending Rooty Toot, is fair game for attack. That includes your precious goldstategop.
