It's called being loyal to your friends. It's not that hard a concept.
Actually it seems like a reasonable division of labor, you criticize Keyes, we criticize Bush, that makes it easier, and less confusing for everyone!
EV, it was a reasonable question. You were emphatic that no one is above criticism. I don't recall much criticism of Keyes by most of you.
OTOH I have seen Bush supporters criticize various things when they don't agree with Bush. You may not see it so much on a Keyes thread but it certainly appears in the forum on other threads. Very few Bushies assign near perfection to the man. The same cannot be said for Keyesters.
Actually I have dealt with anarcho-libertarians off and on for 35 years now, and I still do not understand how any of them think!
Actually, the only perfect person I know is L. C. Sulla!
LOL
Since you bring up other threads...I have also consistently praised the President (since before he was President) when he does things I agree with or consider admirable.
Don't you think?
Dan
Yeah, but that's only because he has a fictitious name.
I enjoyed it myself. Not my most subtle post, though!
Subtle or not, it was great!
I'm happy to hear that and sorry I missed it.
I don't think that Gaius Marius thought that L. C. didn't exist, but I get too far off topic, sorry!
Works for me.........: )
I may have mentioned it before, but I had a knock-down, drag-out fight with A J Armitage on his notorious anti-Bush, anti-Ashbrook vanity thread back a couple of months ago, in which I praised Bush and Ashbrook as our leaders, and denounced the traitors who did not back them in the war! Then AJ went and got himself banned, and I lost about 300+ pro-Bush posts I could otherwise have pointed to now.
