You prove to be an Alinsky-type Leftist when you smear the opponent rather than dealing with the argument. I certainly dont respect that, nor do I suppose anyone else does. I can imagine the bally hoo that would erupt if one of us insinuated that a Catholic “may have stolen” something

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Alinsky type leftist, when I COPY YOUR TACTICS????

Whatever. Call me any names you like. Quix does it, in an "alisky-type leftist way" after all. I suppose none of you like it when the very same tactics YOU (plural)USE are turned back on you (plural).
