cosmicforce.

By your logic, would it be acceptable to you if I labeled you a commie?

I think the RWE label is where we are hung up here.

I also think you really need to take a very hard and objective look at the actions of your own party. After you have done this, you might have to rethink the boxes you have made for the world...or at least put yourself into a different one.

Really, its the behavior and not the specific action that is objectionable. Do Republicans have a lock on these actions?

Here is another one for you. What percentage do you think, of the opposite parties membership, becomes the defining element and forms the aggregate perception for the other party? In other words, are all dogs the same, or all cats?

How many Doberman's does it take, out of a 100 dogs, to convince you that all are Doberman's? Is it five, or fifty, or ?

Do you understand why it is titled "Right Wing Extremist Thread". It's because, according to some liberals, if one conservative AT ALL, one is a Right Wing Extremist.

Personally, I don't like the name either. During PMs between JLA and I before the thread was created, I proposed it be called "The Conservative Boardroom." I still think something like that would be better. Less inflamatary.

Do you honestly think everyone who posts on that thread is a bully? If you do, you're wrong.

Do you think everyone there is against free speech? If so, you're seriously wrong.

Mao Dze Dung? Stalin? Pol Pot? GREAT right wingers, right?

If you'd like the names of numerous others of their political persuasion who are also defenders of civil rights, let me know.
