>>Edit: In the interests of fairness, chalu, i should probably ask you to can it too. <g> Of course, Zoltan "started" it; but you don't have to "continue" it.

You need another edit. Chalu2 started it.

I posted on topic

"To be a Liberal,you have to believe that.....

The First Amendment guarantee of freedom of speech means that you are free to agree with them.

Anything contrary or reality-based is mean-spirited and should be illegal. "

"That from someone who bases his entire existence on name-calling!!! "

btw, as you can see the attack made no sense and had nothing to do with what I posted - other than what is his specialty, the cheap personal attack.

What has struck me about this thread so far is that the participants, for the most part,
have ignored the liberal-bashing thread header and have had a good time, I think,
debating some really hot-button issues in a civil fashion. When I first saw those words
"abortion" and "homosexuality" appear, I really expected the blood to start running
down my monitor. But I saw hardly a drop!

For SI, that's quite a feat. Don't spoil it.


Hear hear. It's what I tried to say about 300 posts ago, but you said it much better. As usual. Sigh.

Fortunately I don't have an ego problem, or you would give me a distinct inferiority complex!

Hey everybody, Joan the thread monitor, is analyzing our tones and suggesting what is appropriate posting. No problem, you sure live up to your liberal roots as regulator of speech. <g>

To be a liberal, you have to believe that...

you can control the thoughts and words of others.
