I do agree with Richie's post in regards to name-calling by anyone or any group. I have not read far enough in to see the term "6-PAC". It does have a ring to it but I would not reserve it for any party but rather as a general term for discussing politics around the corner table at the local watering hole.
As for "calling anyone out" - DEFINITELY WRONG. I enjoy having a few brews with guys of both political persuasions at a local watering hole. No need for anyone to say they would find it distasteful to have drink with liberals (or conservatives) based on personal beliefs. This political forum is not meant to be so serious as to jeopardize personal relationships with anyone. It has created a couple of friendships for me - from the opposite side, too.
It is hard not to respond in kind. I have reported a couple of posts to ADMIN and will certainly try not to respond in kind to personal derogatory remarks.
Let's keep this interesting but remain civil and remember we are Villagers and doggone happy to be here in this slice of Heaven.
