Saying the same thing has nothing to do with being rude, or calling names- you are confusing two very different things, probably because you feel defensive- but your defense is illogical. Even if I did post the same thing over and over again, which I do not believe I do, it wouldn't be bad manners, if I did it politely, but I don't post the same thing over and over, I post many different articles, most with the same POV- just as you do, although your POV is different, nevertheless your articles and posts have a sameness to them. I have not seen much variety in what you post, and since most of us have a defined POV that is to be expected.
I understand your urge to find something to attack in me, you obviously feel attacked. I am not attacking you, or all your very similar posts, I am merely suggesting namecalling is not a good thing here, and especially when the person is banned. You keep needing to drag this out- now you need to drag it out to the point of making a very silly argument that has nothing to do with what I said, using the classic red herring fallacy.

Now on to your unrelated topic of "You are critical of Bush so you must be a bad person, and not love America, and I don't like you, and I don't like being corrected by you" ( yes, that comes through loud and clear):
I am critical of the US UNDER Bush, which is a very different thing from being critical of the country itself. Try to imagine how someone might be critical of Clinton, and the US under Clinton, and yet that this same person might still love the country very much. Oddly enough I could imagine that about people who had views diametrically opposed to my own. I do not like this administration not one little bit. Their spending is crazy, atrocious, irresponisble; their foreign policy is wacko, and the way they sell their programs to Americans is through lies. I do not like this, and yes, I'm very critical. I have nothing constructive to say about an administration that runs up the kind of debt this one does, for such stupid reasons. Nope. I love my country too much to say anything good about the charlatan who is ruining it. IMO of course. I am also quite capable of understanding that people might disagree with me, and I feel no need to insult posters or their posting style simply because they disagree with me. |
