and you don't recognize any of that coming from the right, j.w. ?
LOL, DTOM!!! All you have to do is read the baloney the lefties right here write. I read about someone hating something (usually Dubya or this country) just about every time I come here.
Nah...the righties here don't hate. We don't have to. The left has the corner on that market.
ya know i got nothin' but love 4 ya, sis... but that is, i think, the first less than honest response i've ever gotten from you.
i'm really disappointed.
I suppose people see what they want to see, then. The ABBers here shocked me with their vitriol when I first started reading A2K Politics, but I thought it was the heat of the pre-election politics and would taper off somewhat after Nov. '04. It didn't. Instead of just concentrating the hate and viciousness on GWB, the Left here decided to include those who support him. I'm neither a religious nut nor scared out of my wits nor deficient in intelligence. Yet that baloney is posted here by someone on the left on a daily basis.
You won't find the conservatives on this board name-calling instead of addressing ISSUES, which is typical of the Left when they can't offer any semblance of a counter-argument.
Most of the lefties on this board admit their hatred and wear it more or less as a badge of honor (if only they knew how childish that makes them look) but with time, one begins to realize that most are also lost in the time-machine of the '60's and '70's - their glory-days of anti-war protesting and raging against the machine - trying, no doubt to recapture what they perceive as the best days of their lives. What they don't realize is this is a different time and a different enemy. They're stuck in their time-warp and will remain so until their dying day.
They can't bear to have their memories messed with and lash out at anyone who disagrees with them. It takes enormous reserves of emotional discipline to sustain an open mind, to refrain from personal attacks and to concentrate on the issues. The lefties on this board are for the most part deficient of any discipline, emotional or otherwise. When's the last time you were engaged in a conversation with a grown man who used the term "horsie poop"?
When is the last time you offered an opinion of an ISSUE and were told you were a jerk, or a pathetic poster of drivel or called a liar? None on the right resort to this childishness, but it's rampant from the Left, and considering the owner's own leftist views, it's allowed (although a conservative using the same tactics or any similar vulgarity would most likely be banned...temporarily or permanently).
It's interesting to me that you don't see it. Pay closer attention, perhaps, to those posts and topics offered by those of us on the right and the reponses and replies by those on the left.
Heading to Virginia/D.C. next month (pleasure), then Georgia (pleasure), then it's Christmas (again) in San Diego (aka Paradise on Earth)
) We have a few that post here regularly, but I'm not sure if there are any others currently in Iraq (someone correct me if I'm wrong).
