I thank everyone that has wrote positive comments on this thread, but it is now tainted and I will not be back to it.

OHHHMMMMM OOOHHHMMM
Agreed; when one poster misquoted another to alter the meaning, that was a smear. I'm glad you saw that and applaud it. We need to stop the sniping.

This is political, no? If someone is sensitive, I suggest they find their entertainment on another section of this great site. The campaign season is already with us, so the faint of heart beware!!!

Actually I think all the liberals are putting the conservatives on "ignore" and will just be agreeing with each other from now on. It should really be wonderful and affirming for them.

heres how I see it. Anytime a liberal thinking poster blast a conservative figure or activity some conservative will announce they are outraged by the lack of civility. The next thing I see is the liberal apoligizing or trying to explain himself again. The conservative? Probably smiling knowing he got away with another one.

I don't think that's quite right. When the liberal blasts the conservative figure and then the conservative poster blasts holes in that outlook, the conservative poster is then attacked personally. When the conservative poster get annoyed at the personal attack and responds, the liberal poster drops on the ground and screams for help and cries "conservative brutality".

It is as you say; however, we are fortunate enough that this board only has few driving the jerk train and a few more with the occasional outburst. Overall, we are lucky there are not more than the freaky few. No names of course. I just will no longer try to get along with them, just ignore. I have had bi-partisan discussions on here that have been civil with both the Liberal folks and the Conservatives. I am however embarrassed to say that I am a conservative and its my side of town that gets the nastiest on this board. With the ignore button on, I won't have to even see their response to this post. Hang in there, as things are cleaning up on the political board slowly but definitely.

The insufferably self righteous are becoming more insufferable. You are so good and kind with your references to the "jerk train" and the "freaky few". If only all could be as gracious as you.

Sometimes the catalyst should be held responsible. As Richie says,"The insufferably self righteous are becoming more insufferable."
No truer words spoken today.

I think we should just start to report them to the administrators. If posters simply want to come on here and smear individuals with NO discussion of issues they should be removed. Of course they get removed and simply sneak back on with a new id....sort of tells you something about them right there !
