Why bother with discourse, when you can straight into playground? </sarcasm>
How about people stop calling Obama and his family names, which are meant to fan flames, first?

In recent days, I have noticed some of the trolls who called Obama Marxist, socialist, nazi, racist, and referred to Michelle Obama as chewie are now, "not a member" which is a good start.

Calling someone a right wing nut job is not name calling when it's the most accurate phrase there is to discribe their insanity.

Well, that does seem to be the case, doesn't it? Heck, some posts even LEAD with "*******" and/or 'Commie'.

It's just a big ole playground round here!

Why bother to engage in substantive rational debate with Progressives whose agenda includes the destruction of your nation as you, and history, knows and has known it. The Devolution of the greatest force for good for humanity in the known Universe in all recorded time.

It is more rational to engage in such discourse with a Crocodile that has dragged you under the surface and engaged in death-spins with you in its mouth, that try to engage is such discourse with Libs.
