YO, I was the first to post on his thread with a simple <<lol>> because I could see that it was a joke. He banned me immediately (along with his gracious welcome comments), I got it in the first minutes of the thread's existence. Before I posted I knew it was a joke, and it was funnier when I got banned immediately by the kind and gracious host.

He had a different header then though, so it was more obviously a joke.

Don't you get that it is a spoof on the transparent pretenses of kind and gracious hosting, while engaging in hateful power freak trips?

Yeah we are the butt of his joke but the parody is on grainne's thread. Y'know ... all the times she swears to just want kind and friendly discourse with us and how she hates to engage in rebuke and banning... uh huhhhh, right.

It's a jewel that is funny from what ever perspective you view it left or right ... but you gotta look for it... I look forward to him welcoming each poster so graciously while he bans them instantaneously. I laugh every time. He got us. He got grainne too.

Doesn't mean I want to go out for beers with him. It's a joke son... ahh say a joke boy...doncha git it...ahhh said it's a joke...

Notice that he wouldn't ban chris, when he offered himself up... now maybe he will because I noticed ... or maybe he wont because I predicted that he might. It's a joke son.

Have you ever watched the movie 'Princess Bride'? Their is a scene where this little guy tries to outwit the Dred Scott Robert. I laughed my head off. It reminds me of attempts to reason with Redfish. ... He's just playing us for the heck of it, and there is no foundation of principle or logic in his scheme. I stopped arguing with him long ago.
