It depends on the nature of the name-calling and the persons involved

that's the problem Eddie

there are a myriad of nuances in name calling

and you can see people lose their temper

I've been called dim witted, retarded, a liar, morally corrupt - told to GFY - right on this lovely thread

MD was called a racist

Jorj a fascist and a stalker

JLA a supporter of child molesters, a lawyer who can't cut it, a stutterer among other things

not one of those who called those names were reported or suspended

I don't think it's been fairly handled

period

Bring Back JLA!

iI am beginning to wonder if the obsession of of Bush and his associates with Iraq could be a sign of mental illness or at least severe neurosis.

Bush's Iraq obsession reminds me of the fictional Captain Ahab from the immortal novel MOBY DICK and his mad obsession with killing the white whale that had injured him years earlier.
