Srexley -

When someone lies and insults someone with no basis, how about coming back with reason and logic? Wouldn't that be a better way of supporting and promoting your views?

If someone lies and you call them a liar, that isn't name calling. It is name calling when someone lies and you call them an a##hole.

I don't care what the posts you're responding to say. You're responsible for your own behavior. Note that I've managed to let you know what I think your tactics without resorting to calling you names.
