Thanks Alex for providing the link to that post of yours.

It allowed me to find Simplicity's response, which was very well-written and classy considering the flames you directed her way:

I find it fascinating that you somehow gravitated to this forum labeled 'Politics for Conservatives'.

Part of the conservative mindset entails a desire for honest debate, which is generally believed to include a recitation of facts followed by opinions derived from those facts. Often, in conservative debate, one will find harsh (generally justified) criticism of politicians' policies or agendas, or the political process itself, but rarely, if ever, will one find personal slurs aimed at one's debate opponent. It's just the nature of the conservative mindset ... unwavering respect for the freedom to voice one's opinion, and a desire to accord a measure of dignity even to those who embrace an entirely different viewpoint.

Upon reading your comment here, I looked back at the comments to which you were responding, and found not one example of rudeness or name-calling directed at you (which is par for the course for the posters on this forum). Yet you spent 50 of your 155 words in your comment throwing personal slurs at those who disagree with you. A full 30% of your effort was aimed at personally degrading someone who does not share your point of view.

you conservative morons still worship these people as some kind of heroes ... you people are beyond pathetic ... you are all mentally deranged with your hysterical outrage for any and all Dems/liberals/progressives ... seek some metal help for your hysterical hatred... I bet you also Obama for your erectile dysfunction

It's no wonder very few people respond to your attacks. We on this forum are interested in honest political debate, not making vile negative inferences about someone we have never even met, based simply on the fact that he/she embraces an opposing perspective.

I've been here a year, and you are the first person I have placed on 'ignore'. Congratulations!
