And when they get called out on that, they cry and say it isn't fair that they are being ignored. Too bad. >>How about debating like adults?<< I'm all for it. And you'll find that actually does occur in WE. But when other conservatives want to distance themselves from one who likes throwing tantrums and insulting people, that says a lot.

Are you going to ignore Ed for telling us that all Republicans are lies and traitors? I have dozens of other examples of liberals and bad attorneys who insult people all day long but you can get my point. The liberals and confused cartoon moderates only ignore the conservatives who they find offensive. This is why this thread does such a great job at proving my point about them. I love the fact that the lurkers who read these boards can see how liberals act when they can't win a debate honestly. It's a great example of why you just don't vote for these types of people to be leaders.

If someone wants to come on here and discuss a conservative viewpoint as an adult, that's great. If, on the other hand, someone comes on here and says "This thread is so stereotypically liberal" or some other nonsense like that, or calling us "marxist wannabes" then, that's really not a particularly worthwhile line of discussion.

Originally Posted By mele Beau, I reported Shooba's comment to the mods AND in the thread, I asked for those type comments to stop. Please stop whining that nobody did anything about it.
Originally Posted By mele Yes, it was you, zuux. It was hilarious. No clue who created a screenname using it.

Since I dont dis-agree with Beau and am calling the situation as I see it-childish behavior on your part I must be somehow Beau???? I mean, how could 2 people feel the same way....impossible! Must be Beau posing as someone else. I have read your posts here for awhile now Jon. Shallow and lacking substance. Thats not name calling. Its fact. Beau? Why do you waste your time engaging the likes of Kartoon man, Jon or Passholder? Dont you thirst for some intelligent debate? I recommend you go to craigslist. At least there you can get some substance.
Originally Posted By jonvn Well, it didn't take long for all that to become clear. People generally can't change their MO. I post about the same now as always, and have no interest in either changing that or my name. I didn't know you could change your name here, never cared. I'm on 20 boards, all the same name. You either like me (rare), or hate me (typical). I am who I am, and am not afraid of that. I even signed onto micechat (or whatever it is called, feh) with my own regular name, and of course was banned immediately by them, but that's how it goes.

I just pointed out that you are only going to " ignore " people who you don't agree with. People you agree with can be as rude as they want and even go as far as using the F bomb and telling people their kids should be dead. You are making a total fool of yourself by being so hypocritical. If you were actually being real here, you would call for a ban, errrrrr, to ignore all offenders who don't meet your PC rules of engagment. But you don't. STPH and Shooba would be given lifetime bans by you if you were actually being honest here. But we can all see you are just doing what you do... You embrace the most offensive people on here if they agree with your world view. It is so typical of liberal leaning people to act like this. Folks,I couldn't have given a better example if I tried than what we are seeing here of why liberalism and confused moderates offer nothing real and solid. I don't know any conservatives that would ever act like these libs act. If you go to liberal websites they will ban the conservative in 5 posts. Why? Because they are unable to back anything up. If you really want to shut people up, feel free to win a debate once in a while. Oh, we are all STILL waiting to see that thread you libs started that is even sorta Pro America.
