“And how many times did we replay the video of Mrs. Clinton collapsing during the presidential campaign, only to be whisked away by her bodyguards? Was this simply a concern for her health, which would have been legitimate for a presidential candidate? Or was it a matter of enjoying our ideological opponent’s apparent frailty? Were we concerned or were we gloating? “

How about it was an attack on the fake news for failing to do its job and question Hillary's health for being able to handle the presidency.

Until that vid the MSM refused to even consider Hillary had health issues. And even with the vid the Fake News refused to investigate.

I think Brown’s general point is right. I get so sick of people here calling everybody they don’t like by bizarre insulting nicknames (sometimes so bizarre that I’m not entirely sure who they are referring to) which usually imply that the object of their scorn is gay or engages in other weird sexual practices, or are based on insults about that person’s appearance. On top of everything else, it comes across as very childish and devalues the poster’s entire post.

I’m certainly not innocent myself; I don’t think I ever referred to Obama by his name, but I usually called him “Bambi,” because he wanted to portray himself as a dewey-eyed innocent when the reality was anything but. But I don’t see that any benefit from calling him other gross names I have seen here.

Commenting is one thing (for example, commenting on Hillary’s falls, which I think most certainly do indicate a health problem) and I don’t think we should be restrained about that. But I do think we could do with a little less ugliness.

And then there’s that whole Christian thing - Jesus may have spoken strongly to people who were in error, but he called them out to their face and condemned their behavior in no uncertain terms. I don’t recall His ever sitting around referring to his enemies by childish dirty nicknames when He was talking to the Apostles.
