Traitor Accosts Karl Rove at Book Signing

That would depend on whether one is here to baffle us with his BS, or here for honest debate.

YOUR OP was not honest debate, so what were you expecting. You make a declaration of the person as a traitor, something technically they are not, in the subject line. You post a link to a story and then immedietely ignore the story and make the OP more about her being a terrorist supporter, a traitor, and saying she should be in jail if Bush was in office. There was no honesty in what your intent for this thread was from the very moment you typed the subject line.
 
First, there are no personal insults.

Second, I was addressing the topic. YOUR use of idiotic over the top rhetoric was in the topic, and the subject. Your accusations of her being a terrorist supporter or a traitor is as much the topic as her actions against Rove, because you CHOSE to use those words rather than focus on the story. Which was entirely my point.

Why do people have such a hard time with the concept of the importance of presentation? If you choose to use over the top rhetoric, you are just going to be dismissed, and not just this post, but everything else you post for awhile will be tainted.

And why is it that a LOT of people of a certain ideology cannot present their views without coming across as a-holes? Is it in the water?

Eh, there are a fair share of assholes on both sides. Don't wanna get into that debate, it's never pretty.

Oh give me a break Captain. Go check out the Media Bias threads, just about anything with Glen Beck or Rush Limbaugh. Its not a "certain" ideology, its all ideologies, you just enjoy...much like Dana...reveling in it whenever a conservative/republican does it because you're so disenchanted by something you once held as your side.

Especially in recent months, the influx of the liberal wing of the hyper partisan club has came out in an equally as strong force as new posters have arrived.

You might want to go see the latest thread there. Again, it's both sides.

Wouldn't it be interesting to have a graph chart charting which side made the most asnine statements and which one threw the first flame war punch in any given threads/posts?

Myself, I don't need a graph to tell me what I already know. But some people insist on a link. :mrgreen:

To me that misses the whole point of debate though. Debate as pissing contest is not the best plan.

That's what I'm saying. Both sides do it. I just knew of a number of threads recently by Liberals there that were good examples of it. Wasn't saying conservatives don't start any there either. Both sides have their amount of people that have no desire for legitimate honest debate but simply want to scream their rhetoric at people to pick a fight.

Absolutely. Both sides do it.

As for which side accuses just the other side of doing it more often, that's another story.:(

I know, it was just funny to me.
 
Okay, the woman is an idiot. This is a pathetic political publicity stunt and nothing more.

If you actually gave a damn about the story and wanted to talk about that you'd have left the over the top, opinion based rhetoric out of it. If you wanted to have an honest conversation about the fact you view the woman as a traitor or terrorist supporter you wouldn't have had to hide it under the guise of a thread talking about her attempt to arrest Karl Rove.

That said, Redress is right, the over the top rhetoric and recasting situations into the light you want doesn't help your case, it weakens it. Before the typical peanut gallery joins in going "OMG, that damn faux conservative Zyphlin, always taking the side of liberals", this is the exact same argument I made recently in Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh threads, so get over yourself before you even try it.

Also, its ridiculous to assume she'd be "in irons" by now if Bush was still in office. If she wasn't there previously there'd be no reason to think she would be now.
Yeah, so where have you been on the "What does a Progress mean" thread in response to CC's behavior, which is worse then what's gone on here. Yeah, no where to be seen.

Sorry we're not all faux moderate intellectuals that play the middle and never have a "partisan" comment like yourself :roll:

Obama Funder and Terrorist Supporter Jodie Evans Assaults Karl Rove in Beverly Hills - Big Government

This woman is a known terrorst supporter, consulting with known terrorsts. Why has she not been charged with treason? Yet, she is free to roam about accosting public figures. It is a shame Bush is no longer President. She would be in irons by now.

Wish it would have been a cop or special agent that made the arrest instead. Maybe if enough people get stopped trying to do this it'l start a bandwagon effect.

First of all, genius, Rove is more of a traitor to his country than some far-left code pink chick.

He was in a position of power and abused that power to political ends.
