I've read where she was called Lewinsky. Is that considered a gross insult? After all, wasn't she the Democrat hero's favorite girl or something? :)

Look Chris, I think we have far too many personal insults around here. But I'm beginning to realize good people will only accept being a punching bag for so long. Whether you or Karen have participated in name-calling from time-to-time I couldn't answer with certainty. However, what I do know is both of you give moral support and encouragement to those who do.

I'm sure I'm guilty of the same thing, so I'm not about to sit on a high-horse and take a hollier-then-thou attitude regarding this one example. Seems to me the insults were pretty tame in comparison to many more I've seen here lately, and your insistance on chivalry is nothing more than sexism in disguise.

Should women names be treated differently here then men names. Or is this an equal opportunity place of dissent and dialogue?

I do remember one time a couple of years ago being particularly offended by a man insulting a women when it involved her personal picture linked from her profile page. That to me was over the top, especially since the man never had the courage to display his own picture.

Gotta run, have good time.
