All of us take shots at those we disagree, but you've gone beyond harsh to flat out prickish and mean. All of our personalities are easily recognizable by our posts pretty much like we'd be recognizable by our faces if we really sat around a Tall Table, but you have changed. Jog and I are on the same side in this election debate but bring up 9/11 and we're back at it. Even in the middle of our most heated exchanges, I didn't display the outright, dare I say, hatred you're displaying. I "hate" (not a real hatred however) Sew and you for your politics, but I'd still buy you both a beer. I might pi$$ in it when you're not looking(!) but I get the feeling you wouldn't pi$$ in Jog's mouth if his teeth were on fire.
I've already made the decision i'm taking a news vacation after the election, whomever wins. I'm done with it for a while. Otherwise, this "game" we play becomes all too real.
Lighten up Francis.
you think this is mean??? you ain't seen nothing yet punkin'
. I'm just getting into my stride
if you can't take the heat, get out of the Kitchen, cause yes you do display hatred for me and Sew sometimes, and this is what payback feels like, You've never been nice, and you praise impoliteness in Trump, in Ann Coulter, etc, as a fresh breath of un-PC speech,yet now you complain about it when it's against your side, please, cry me a river, I've barely touched the surface of grade school name calling.
JOG has occasionally, when he's not being "smarter than thou," been civil, not when talking about Hillary, which is what's he's droned on about for the last 3 months at least, but, on other things he cares about sure.
And whenever any of you talk about Clinton, you don't talk about her positions on whatever issue, cause obviously, she's just evil so everything she wants is evil, which we'd know if only we could take off our "liberal" blinders and connect the dots that no investigator, let alone prosecutor has successfully connected YET, in over 30 years of scrutiny.
This is the backlash that happens when you over generalize and stereotype and go overboard hyperbolic on your blame for certain groups for the "destruction (if not worse)" of America. you've (both you and JOG) called liberals all kinds of dismissive, demeaning, derogatory names, you barely validate that they even deserve to live, instead of trying to change our minds, you seek to destroy us. and I'm really not even that liberal, but in many conservative's eyes if anyone agrees with any part of the "liberal agenda" then they are just as evil as the most liberal, tree hugging, tax them all and spend it all personality out there, there are much much much more liberal people out there than me, but you all won't even give me a chance, I make perfectly logical MATH based statements about the electoral college and Mt Springs (Mr. all liberals want is free stuff and they are stupid for it) can't even agree with OTHER peoples conclusions (538 polling site), so, I'm done giving you all the benefit of the doubt on your ability to process "logic."
I used to always try to just focus on logical follies and issues, but after I've been rebutted by you, JOG and others all but calling me stupid and purposefully being ignorant, and since you've embraced meanness in your own candidate, I figured, what's good for goose is good for the gander. You all don't want to talk issues, you want to feel like you're smarter and better than anyone who thinks differently than you, and when I call you all on it, you just become Pee Wee Herman ("I know you are but what am I") You want to feel like your side has all the answers, when they are often just as blind as the craziest liberals. I always used to try to argue for middle ground, but now, especially with Trump, that's a losing battle.
So, no, you don't get to be mean and not get it back, especially when you seem to praise it as good quality.
Heck, JOG can't even say Hillary Clinton's name. it's always some kinda bipedal postule or worse, he thinks she's the epitome of evil and spares no expense expressing that. As do MANY of Trump's supporters. So filled with rage it eeks out of every pore of every communication they make. This whole election has NEVER been about issues, All Trump did during the Republican primaries was make fun of the other candidates, because on the Issues, Ted Cruz shared almost ALL of Trump's issues, but none of his personality, none of Trump's 4th grade level speaking ability.
And you think I'm mean? You're whole party has embraced grade school locker room talk instead of policy. and you can't see the hypocrisy in that, since both Trump and Clinton or her husband have almost the exact same personal issues, but Clinton has experience and a lawyer's education to disguise it a bit.
So since you seem to want mean, you got it bub.
