Well Metacomet, if nothing else you are sure good at proving my point

I retract the compliment about you having a good head on your shoulders, my bad

Just to draw some lines around it, how long would I get to stay on Lindys' thread pointing out what an asshole Paul Ryan and his economics are...and yet you are allowed to incessantly criticize Krugman, who most here agree with to some extent

For whatever reason, you are permitted to sling mountains of right wing mud, some people here don't even consider you a right winger, and in general criticize whichever of the folks who might represent how folks here think, like Sanders with impunity

I suppose we need you for comic relief

..I do worry about your mental health though

In addition to that advanced case of cognitive dissonance you like to share with us, this need for abuse, that you surely have, could be a problem

You don't have fantasies of buying automatic weapons to set the world right, like some of your philosophical brethren, by any chance, do you?

I like the politics of Obama and so does Dale. Obama is sort of centrist- as Wharfie will no doubt jump in and tell us (or he might even say Obama is right wing, which I disagree with)

And if the left wing is active here, GREAT. I may not always agree with the left wing- but I like to see them. Because SI tends to list to the right- given the great age of many of the participants here (try to find someone under 30...)
