Yes, I react that way sometimes to condescending assumptions.
I've never been able to figure out if the problem with folks who respond as you do, Syncro, is genuine lack of reading comprehension or deliberate twisting of what others say because you get off on keeping the pot stirred.
I asked you a simple question, and mentioned your use of little digs, and assured you my mind is open.
Just to discount your assumption. I don't know why posters have to make comments like that, does it make you feel better to say you have an open mind and I don't?
So where the twisting is (except in your comments) is a mystery to me.
Look, if my countering your arguments is going to alienate you, your are a little thin skinned.
Your point of view goes counter to the reality of what this thread is about (and the reality of the situation in my opinion and many others also)), so I express mine because "Whatever, you are entitled to your point of view and I am to mine."
Goes both ways.
Ahhh, yes, when all else fails, accuse the person you disagree with of being condescending. Of course, you never make condescending assumptions. Nevermind these statements of yours to me on this very thread:
You and the other few Palin haters here are the cult with slavish devotion to your dislike of Palin.Do you have any problems with the nastiness of the left?
I don't hate Palin. I don't dislike her. I am unalterably opposed to the Left and have been my entire adult life. My early posts on this thread made it clear I agree with her statement, even the use of the term blood libel. However, I disagree with your purist thought on the margins. Oh the horror! Oh the humanity! Can't have even marginal divergence of thought, now can we.
