Are you really having that much trouble getting your arms around it?

You mean that you have all the maturity of a 13 year old? Nope, I see that.

Generally, among adults, we refer to people as they wish to be referred to. Its called having class.

If one of your co-workers wanted to be called "Smitty" and you constantly referred to him as "Twitty", why you would probably get a poke in the nose eventually. But then we also know how very brave some guys are when they are hiding behind a computer :)

End of discussion

Gosh. Are you going to hold your breath till you turn blue?

Interesting that you regard my position "combat vets should be treated with respect even if we don't care for their political views" to be "foaming at the mouth". Quite telling, in fact. But then we already knew that "support the troops" is just a slogan to your crowd.

Right. You exchanged all those posts and never said "what the hell is this stuff about rats"?

WHen in discussion with someone who is foaming at the mouth, discussion of minutiae is seldom productive.

So that leaves the equally infantile "democrat party" is that another typo, or are you just marching in lockstep?

Oh, that's no typo, nor is is infantile. Are you really having that much trouble getting your arms around it?

End of discussion.

Well, I wondered where you were getting that from.

Right. You exchanged all those posts and never said "what the hell is this stuff about rats"?

Thats a bit like Fox news going "oh gee, did we call Obama Osama? Oops!

So that leaves the equally infantile "democrat party" is that another typo, or are you just marching in lockstep?

OMG....Are you telling me that your all fired up over a TYPO? You gotta be kidding.

Lets see. We exchanged about a dozen posts yesterday relating to "how is it Democrats are rats"

If its a typo, why did you not simply say "that was a typo dude" instead of engaging in a series of posting that ran for half a day?

Did the dog eat your homework too, junior?

Democrat" Party

Of course thats a typo bit, thats why we see you use it in dozens of your posts.

A liar too. A real Bush man you are pal.

Actually, I only did the first part. The entire post is in italics because the entire post is a quotation from the movie.

If it helps, just look upon my use of the quotation as (somewhat) snarky commentary on the tangent this thread went off on.

As for respecting your views? Really dude, how could anyone with a half-functioning brain do that?

When you get it working that well let me know.

Sheesh.

Because I do not use moronic terms equvilant to "Demorats" or "Democrat" Party when I am referring to the GOP, perhaps?

OMG....Are you telling me that your all fired up over a TYPO? You gotta be kidding.

Good God, kid... drink a beer, walk around a little, huh? Go outside and see what the roses are doing.

Tell me; why should I respect them any more than you respect mine?

Though I do not care for what the GOP has become during the era of the Bushes (the reason I left it), I do not question someones patriotism simply because they belong to the opposing party. I acknowlege that there are many fine people, such as Chuck Hegel (my first choice for president), in the GOP.

As for respecting your views? Really dude, how could anyone with a half-functioning brain do that? You don't have any ideas, you just puke up warmed over dogma from Ann Coulter and the like...

Well, if you'd care to make a cogent case for something, I'd be more than happy to respect it. Instead, it seems that with you, everything is about insulting liberals and Democrats at every opportunity.

For example, Stephen Bainbridge has posted a number of articles that are critical of Obama, yet I continue to read his blog, and obviously respect his thoughts. Why? Because he treats his readers and political opponents as reasonably intelligent people, and doesn't go out of his way to hurl petty insults at every opportunity.

Similarly with the Volokh Conspiracy.

You throw a quote from a movie up and said think about it. OK you could be trying to make some of many different possible points from it or you could be one of those smug people who blow smoke in an attempt to look smart. Sound familiar? So I thought I would attempt to see if you have a clue of what your post. Saying research it yourself makes it sound like you are spewing BS and really didn’t have a point just trying to look smart. Article again.

Right, and you are the judge of this. Not the men who actually put their butts on the line. You.

Yes! Me! Along with everybody else, of course. That's what happens when you enter politics and ask for people to vote for you; such jusdgements get made... at least they get made by folks who want to use their vote wisely.

It is pretty clear that you despise the concepts of democracy, free thought, and respect for the opinions and beliefs of others.

Tell me; why should I respect them any more than you respect mine?

Oops, huh?
