posted it to see what response Obamaphiles would have. In other words, to provoke. Gee, that's called "trolling" at PfP. A lot of those statements weren't facts at all. Inexperience has been the core of Hillary's argument as to why she's a better candidate. It's hardly not been talked about. Who can't talk about it? Or the flag pin, which Obama quickly gave his thinking on. Who can't talk about it? I read more than I cared to since it wasn't much of an issue. Michelle is fair game, imo, as long as it's about her ideas. I am not an Obamaphile and have no idea which way I will vote come Nov, but that list had no more intellectual value than some of Maher's rants, and you didn't even intend it to be useful. You were playing some partisan game, and I find that a bit offputting. It's what leads to the lower level of discourse you find elsewhere. Maybe this doesn't matter to anyone else, but it disturbed me. You have been welcomed here, and people have said how glad they are to have some conservative voices. So deliberate provocation seems rather- ungracious.

I see. So on top of posting here as some sort of performance art for other threads, you've decided to call the people here names (Obamaphiles) and tell people they are "thinned skinned". Pretty rich. You want to be called a Bushophile? You want to be told you're pretty thinned skin about the stuff dished out to Mr. Bush? I bet you don't- and I haven't seen anyone say that to you. Too bad you're just here trolling. I thought your presence might develop in to something more than that.
