Name-calling is not a debate point. You get one taken away
from you when you use silly names to avoid factual argument.


I agree again. Which makes your use of name calling grounds for subtracting a whole bunch of points. Here are just a few:

Message 19451728 (insinuating Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter are homosexual, instead of actually discussing something they have said that you disagree with)

Message 19104087 ("from many angles Bush really does look like a chimp. He isn't a chimp, he just looks a little like one" -- thank God for that explanation, otherwise I would have gone through life believing that GWB really is a chimpanzee)
