"Rather than crash the pro-Bush orgy threads, I thought I would honor the requests of the "we must support the president at all costs" crowd and let them bask in their Republican utopia in ignorant bliss."
Nice opening, in light of the sentence that follows: "Consider this a thread that seeks actual debate and discussion concerning the "accomplishments" of our current president."
That's just about the most two-faced, disingenous thing that I've seen around for quite sometime. You seek "actual debate" by insulting those whom you wish to debate?
Or is the actual truth the fact that you seek NO DEBATE WHATSOEVER, and instead, you just want to have a thread where you can host a Bush supporter bashing party all of your own?
That's the way that this vanity of yours reads.
So tell me, why should anyone attempt to discuss anything with some jackass who insults them with every word that he writes?
Haven't you now become that which you criticize?
You don't seek debate in any form, you wrote an ignorant, insulting, flame-bait, and are smuggly patting yourself in the back because of the apparent approval of the Moderators. So sit back, be proud of your shortcomings, and bask in your absolute lack of class.
"This thread is in response to the blatant display of sheer ignorance on the part of some FReepers."
You want sheer ignorance? Invest in a mirror.
Buy one that reflects on both sides, you'll need it for each side of your face.
First of all, have you even read any of my other posts in this forum? Read any of my articles? Talk about ignorance. I seek nothing but intelligent debate and discussion here. My opening salvo was directed at those FReepers (and they know who they are) who are interested in one thing only: to praise George W. Bush. I have tried to engage some of these people on their "positive" threads only to be told to "Get lost. This is not a Bush-bashing thread!"
FR is supposed to be a place for grass-roots conservatism, and that includes pointing out the mistakes made by the chief executive of this country. I did it with Clinton and Gore and I intend to keep doing it during this president's term(s). If that kind of thing isn't welcome here then perhaps I was mistaken as to what kind of forum this was supposed to be.
Do you honestly think that comments like the ones I referenced in my post should be allowed to slip by without so much as a whimper of dissent? Frankly, I am rather disturbed by people who call themselves "conservative" and castigate all who dare to criticize the liberal policies of a Republican administration.
LOL, I thought I remembered that comment from somewhere:
Invest in a mirror if you wish to see the face of moral ugliness.

And then this:
As usual, not a single original thought rolling around in your hat holder, is there?
