We justifiably said goodbye to many Rudy operatives last year. Why are we still sharing this space with an Obama operative?

Etixos, are you a paid Obama staff member, or just a very devout volunteer?

Neither; just an objective observer.

“Operative” is such a spooky, sneaky word, isn’t it? :D

Okay, here's the thing. This chat board likes to present itself as The Premier Conservative Website. Historically, conservatives have been critical thinkers, level-headed intellectuals who look at all sides of a situation and then draw their own conclusions. When I come across a thread utterly lacking in all these qualities--often a thread originating in LifeNews, LifeSite News, or WND--I like to take a contrarian tack in the hope that it will stimulate some independent thinking amongst the lemming-like drive to the apparently stamped and approved sea.

There's nothing trollish about it. It's called "discussion".
