Do you claim that all of your statements on the subject are 100% factual? I don't care what you say, but when spreading your personal biased opinion as a fact, expect to get called on it.
So, according to your position, someone did die and made you "Free Speech Marshal Of The City-Data Politics Forum"?
Thus entitling you to practice what you call the "Oh Shut Up" policy when anyone disagrees with you? You can exercise your rights but no one else can? My, how liberal of you.
So, in essense, you are admitting to being a biased blowhard who only listens to their master who acts like a child.
Got it.
1) This jazz about calling someone a liberal when they espouse a point of view that you don't like, is getting old, and it ain't gonna work on me---I don't slap labels on folk who disagree with me, and as a matter of fact, it's their RIGHT to disagree with me, politcal/religious/ethnic/gender status notwithstanding...as I said in my previous post, I am an adult, and I will speak up WHEN I please, WHERE I please, and about WHAT I please...that is a fact, set in stone, and no flip-mouthed, smarty-pants dismissal from you or others like you will change that...deal with it
2) You're absolutely right...it's MY opinion, and you and everybody can 'call me' on it 'til skunks don't stink...I am not perfect, and I have on occasion spoke on something and not had my facts in place, and I'll admit it...
3) And just for the record, your calling me a blowhard, and biased at that, who listens to a 'master' like a child? Yeah right...I have no master, I'm not a child, and as long as I adhere to the Terms Of Service here on City Data, and not personally attack anyone, then I will 'blow-hard' at my leisure...sorry for your luck if you think I'm biased, but I WILL speak my mind, fair or foul, right or wrong...
Wow. Now that was quite a spin lol my head is still dizzy from trying to figure out how you got this from what was said
And don't worry...I'm not going to stop being me, and saying what I think, based on someone's pseudo-smug supposed 'dismissal' of me and/or my opinions...not gonna happen, ever
Wow. Now that was quite a spin lol my head is still dizzy from trying to figure out how you got this from what was said
Perhaps if you bothered to follow the entire conversation and took into account both points of view it would become clear to you. But from your past posts that isn't going to happen, especially considering anothers point of view.

I'd read the whole conversation I'm just trying to figure out what language you're reading because it clearly isn't English.
IF you truly read the conversation, perhaps comprehension should be on your agenda since you clearly did not understand it.
I did. Not sure what the purpose of the big capitalized bold if but yet I still don't understand how you got what you said from the statement you quoted. Perhaps you would be so kind as to explain....of course not, you're too busy insulting people and trying to be clever. Carry on.
Mrs. Palin was not exercising her freedom of speech when she tore the banner down. She was infringing on the freedom of speech of another person. The hypocrisy is that Mrs Palin embraces the concept of freedom of speech when she criticizes the President and his administration, but doesn't tolerate that same concept when the criticism is leveled at her.

reread the article again, it wasnt palin that tore the banner down, it was someone in her entourage.
