have you ever considered getting some facts before posting?

Just WHERE are the political leanings of ANYONE in this story identified?

Are you really incapable of understanding it's lawyers doing what they do. slinging mud? Are you alleging all lawyers are liberals?

Thank goodness Harrier missed the obvious sarcasm. Otherwise he might be embarrassed by this post and by his entire thread.

Oh, wait … never mind. Harrier. Enough said.

It was a psychologist in NYC - what more do you need?

No, not all attorneys are liberals, and Harrier aspires to go to law school and take the California bar exam, adding another conservative voice to the legal universe.

Nope. That wouldn't be trolling.

I actually thinks the OP understands completely; he just chooses to be a troll because he likes the attention it brings him.

That's like asking The New York Post to get some facts before printing.


In all seriousness, this is a guy who allegedly hasn't paid child support and so he tries to garner sympathy with nonsense like this. And all of the personal responsibility mavens jump right on it.
Ridiculous.

I've read this story, Harrier. This has nothing to do with liberalism or conservatism. It's all about the craziness that is the American people.

Next time you go on a smear campaign against liberalism, ensure that the story you reference contains clear examples of liberalism.

This moderate laughs at you more and more. Sheesh you're so predictable.

Didn't you have Harrier on ignore?

By the way, in acknowledgement of Veteran's Day, thank you for your service.

Um, I've read all the posts on this forum, and I'm not seeing how this is a liberal/conservative issue. Some people would say that liberals oppose feeding children fast/junk food, thus the father must be a liberal as opposed to his mother. Others might say that denying a child food is congruent with a conservative parenting style.

Given that this particular incident took place in Manhattan, a place that conservatives often accuse of so-called nanny-state liberalism because of bans on large sugary drinks and foods containing trans-fats, it boggles the mind to understand why a father who *refuses* to feed his son such food is somehow a victim of liberalism. I really don't get it, and you can't have it both ways. If the third-person-referencing Harrier would care to explain, then that would be welcome, although I don't think it's cool to refer to yourself in the third person. If Harrier wants to speak, let him do so in the first person like the rest of us mere mortals.

Harrier has dealt with this issue by making his custom title "illeistic".

It was done to solve the problem of people going off topic, like yourself, by discussing Harrier's posting manner.

Please take the custom title at face value and refrain from discussing irrelevancies.
