"Cybernazi or Pilch or jallen et al trash liberals?" Sure I have. I've trashed them myself. When I do it, it is in usually in response to a dickish statement like Bush is a Nazi, Pilch is a racist, Bush is a liar, etc. "When a presidential election is that close, you don't run to the Supreme Ct. to get an edge" When you lose a Presidential election, you concede gracefully and support the new President. Algore sent in 75 lawyers to look for loopholes to get himself appointed President. Damn straight you fight like a dog to keep an unprincipaled jerk who is trying to steal an election at bay. Maybe you would concede your victory to this narrow minded idiot, but a principaled person would not. The question NO LIBERAL has been able to answer is: Why did Gore deserve a recount after the state mandated recount that Bush won? The answer is that under the law he did not. But I'm curious if you have an answer. Curious if you will try to answer the question above. You have disparged the sitting President implying he ran to the courts even though he had legitimately won a close election. Back that up with something more than your emotion. "Freedom of speech permits us to say what we like within reason......." Then why are you against the response they got? You can trash our President, that is true. But you can trash the trashers, which is what happened. It is also just about all I do here, because it is NOT CRITICISM to call someone a name. It is a personal attack. "If they are that thin skinned, they don't belong in a democracy." Sounds like you are a bit thin skinned. I condemned the death threats, but I am also sure there were very few of them. I noticed you did not respond to whether you would view it as criticism or a personal insult if someone said the same thing about your father. You still call it "criticism", which is a bit dishonest imo. Gotta go. I'll try to get back to the post later.
