You seem to think that I haven't backed up what I've been asserting ? I fail to understand that.

Observe, study FULLY, the contents of the post I'm supplying a link to, here ...

A post full of links that has font sizes changing all over the place? No thanks, how about prove your point rather than rambling and making a post look like a 3rd grade project?

Start anew… show that I am a 'lefty'. Have at it.

This is a joke ??

The fact that you're staunchly supporting a Leftie, Arbo, has to be indicative of SOMETHING. How can this not indicate one comrade fighting for the cause of another comrade ? H'mm ?

And, even more ludicrously, .... let me get this right ... you're rejecting consideration of the post I offered because it has different FONT SIZES ? And .. you don't like the links it contained ? What's the matter, Arbo .. are you afraid that those links might lead to evidence that I'm right ??

I thought it was YOU who suggested that a trawl through past posts should be able to prove past positions taken, and what they show us ? YET ... when confronted with a post giving links to JUST THOSE SORT OF EXAMPLES, YOU SUDDENLY DON'T WANT TO LOOK AT IT ????

... what a joke.

No worries ... (and thanks for the reply) ..

I think my post above to Arbo hits the spot, frankly. Having been challenged to come up with evidence from past posts of what I've been asserting, only to then have me prove that I already had (!!!) ... was obviously too much for our friend. To chuck excuses back at me for not looking at that, on the grounds that he doesn't like the differing font sizes (!!!!!!) .. is too lame for words.

How ridiculous. I have to wonder how Arbo had the nerve to come up with that one.

As an airplane is about to crash, a female passenger jumps up frantically and announces, "If I'm going to die, I want to die feeling like a woman." She removes all her clothing and asks, "Is there someone on this plane who is man enough to make me feel like a woman?" A man stands up, removes his shirt and says, "Here, iron this!".

Hah !

Believe it or not, I already have ! I fully understand what you're saying - and of course, as even these recent posts prove, she - and you - are right.

What's amusing about this is that a certain boss of mine at work, a hardline Leftie (... of the type I was recently assured I couldn't spot !!) recommended I become familiar with Ann Coulter, her works, her interviews, etc. His thinking was that her no-nonsense 'stridency' and so-called 'extremism' would help persuade me against my own Conservatism.

Instead, I took to her style and stellar observations like a duck to water. That gal is BRILLIANT ... I'm the first to say that I'm a fan of hers (I've seen several of her interviews on the Hannity and Colmes show). If ONLY she'd visit the UK !!!!

I used to post regularly, years ago, on that segment of another forum devoted to her weekly articles. I found some friends there (.. and some troll adversaries, too .. the place became infested with trolls ...).

Yes, it was a proud day when I rolled into work, copy of the very book you've illustrated under my arm, and offered to lend it to my boss. Strangely, he declined the offer.

[I really must catch up to her more recent books, though.]

This might interest you. Here, Ann gets the BBC treatment (sorry, the sound quality isn't great) from the nastiest interviewer they have .. Jeremy Paxman.

I need no lectures from you, thanks.

Let me simply say that anyone asserting that I can't spot a Left winger from a mile away (.. or in this case, a couple of thousand ?) just isn't being realistic. In my society, we've had GENERATIONS of Left-leaning politicians and their many sympathisers positively swamp our culture. They're everywhere ! The BBC is riddled with it, the Guardian, the Daily Mirror likewise, I can't recall a time when I couldn't spot them in the workplace.

Socialist influence, I'm sure, is more widespread and more entrenched here than in the US, and its supporters even less bashful about promoting it than in your part of the world. So to suppose I 'can't' spot them is, frankly, a ludicrous suggestion of yours.

I shall continue to tell it as I see it, Arbo, whether or not you approve.

FJ .. what we have here is the latest proof of your liberalism. You CANNOT explain your assertion of knowing how many in the church congregation you spoke of are liberals.

Come on now, backing up your claims and using reason and logic and civility will not cause you to stroke out.

No, it won't. So, here's one 'claim' .. FJ is way more guilty of the charge you aim in 'our' direction, than anyone else !

Here's the post showing you a rather long list (which was added to, afterwards !!) of FJ's own denigrations ....

More of the mindless drivel. I don't support people, I support ideas. Thus the odds that it would ever look like I support you are slim, as I have yet to see an idea cross your fingertips.

Then try supporting the 'idea' that FJ doesn't get what he dishes out in kind ! For that to be true, I and my so-called 'clan' (an invention of yours) would have to post using far worse and far more attacking language than we ever do !!

Besides, you're not shy about posting denigrations yourself. Perhaps I should draw up a list of yours ? Starting with ...

From the rules, "There will be no discussion of the cage in other forums, as some members might wish to completely avoid this atmosphere." I'm guessing putting from that sub forum to post in other sub forms is probably a no-no as well.

BTW, there are idiots and partisans on both sides, saying 'the idiots on the left' or 'the idiots on the right' doesn't mean the speaker is on the opposite side of the statement. To think so it really to run around with blinders… do you really think everyone on 'your side' is an intelligent individual and good for that 'side'?

Adding this comment to my last post ... your comment doesn't, certainly of itself, import cage 'conditions'.

And that's as far as I'll go on the matter .. in recognition of the rules.

Needless to say, you've ducked this. Of course you have. You well know that you had to.

FJ .. what we have here is the latest proof of your liberalism. You CANNOT explain your assertion of knowing how many in the church congregation you spoke of are liberals. Yet, you say you have that knowledge.

Stupid challenge is stupid. In what possible way is this relevant? Because I know someone is a liberal that I'm a liberal myself?

Oh look, inflating the post count with another picture. Of course it is meant as an attack, but it has nothing to do with the reality that his buddy talked about another sub form, then posted text from that sub forum, then denied talking about that sub forum, thus was caught in a lie.

This is the normal tactic of this guy. Busted? Oh, just throw up a picture and then run away. And it goes on and on and on and on and on.

We weren't discussing just 'someone', FJ, and well you know it. The point was that you claimed to know a number of people in your church congregation to be liberals. And, as has been pointed out - with you ducking the necessary explanation of HOW - there have to be circumstances in play which made that possible.

The only one I can conceive of is that you would be in a position of affinity to those other 'liberals' in order to have a chance to know what you claim to know.

FJ, you posted this 'rewrite', claiming it showed 'truth'. Such as, '.. enjoy this list of truths that you have stated about me'

Let's see, shall we ?


You and a few others are utter morons

Ignoring the fact that it can't be just 'about me' with that wording (!), it came from an Arbo post answering ABOUTIME, from post #174 of the original thread.


you all should grow up and learn

I am 'all', am I, FJ ? This one's from the very same post ...


You all are so far down the well of stupidity

That one did answer a post from me. But again, am I 'all' ...?

How incredibly impressive of me ...


one of the guys that can't think for himself

'Guys', PLURAL. Post #183 from the original thread, this time answering RSR, not me !!

So there we have it.

Even ONE of these examples blows your case out of the water, FJ. But I've just picked out FOUR which defy your assertion. And .. of course, this ignores the additional point, that of the UNtruths involved in these statements (denigrations) from Arbo.

With 'accuracy' like this, FJ, why should all your claims about your 'conservatism' be deemed accurate in themselves ?

Now that this is in the cage…. good lord you are really a fucking moron. You say FJ must be a liberal because he has identified others in his congregation as liberal… yet you call him a liberal. Based on your logic, that means YOU must be a liberal in order to identify him as such.

Thank you for such distinctive 'eloquence', Arbo. Frankly, I'm not sure I can match it. I think this must come from the altogether greater time you have spent in 'cage' posts, than have I ...

Anyway, your 'logic' doesn't hold together. I know FJ (.. just as others do, too ..) to be a liberal because he's spent, shall we say, 'an extended time' posting JUST AS A LIBERAL WOULD. So, there's been quite an opportunity to study all this.

Compare that to FJ, as he claims, going to church, and knowing .. well, how DID our friend FJ put it .. ?


I go to church with plenty of them

So sorry about the font size change, my son.

Arbo ... 'plenty' is more than one, more than a couple. Hey, we could be talking about an entire herd of them here !!!

So - maybe you can answer this, even though FJ could not ? How would FJ get to know that 'plenty' of his fellow churchgoers are liberals ? Unless he had particular opportunities to establish who, and WHAT, they are ???

I did ask if he passed census forms around, or had asked for a show of hands. Sadly, however, FJ was not forthcoming with confirmations of either ...

This, therefore, leaves me with one simple question. In deference to this section of the forum, and with you as my enthusiastic mentor in these matters, it's this ...

If someone wants to call out another or fight over something that pops up in a good debate, take it down here. If non-stop feuding is occurring, we will do our best to separate it and move it down here. I try to let them run their course unless it gets out of hand, with something like threats or discussion of family, or discussion of board moderation. If straight out fighting and it doesn't get out of hand, some can live in here for all I care. All I've ever asked was to keep the fighting and off topic stuff separated, and to keep mention of others family or threats off the board & of course to please keep questioning of staff decisions in private where it should be. If those few can be honored, the board would be 500% better.

I certainly try to do the greater amount of my posting outside of the cage but had to place two people on ignore to do so. I highly recommend that policy.... Some people just aren't ever worth the effort to discuss one's political and life views with. Only recently adding the second person to permanent ignore list. What's amazing is this is the first forum I've ever used the ignore function at. I survived at a larger forum with at least 20 times greater as many dedicated opponents as I encountered here so I guess those two making the list here deserve top honors for their idiocy. --Tyr

You bozos couldn't ID a liberal if one was sitting on your head. You've been challenged on several occasions to post examples of their support for Obama and his policies. You have as yet neglected to do so. Before your next "leftie" attack, how about backing it up with a couple?

Two comments, FJ. One ... have you stopped to consider that RSR's picture contributions have salient, highly appropriate messages behind them ? Have you ever paused to consider them ? Or do you just like to think of them as nothing more than pretty pictures ??

How you ever manage to interpret a picture of Obama as 'pretty' is beyond me, FJ. But then, I'm no supporter of his ! Any time you feel like explaining it, give it your best shot.

Try not to get too carried away with the effort in the process ...

Point two - I think you'll find this funny. Having never heard of 'Scared Girls Walking', I actually - get this !! - thought there was at least a chance that it existed as a film !! Now, isn't that hilarious ? I did a search engine search, and failed to find evidence of any such titled film.

... Now ... if I'd had my wits about me, I'd have thought something like ... 'Er'm, this is FJ talking. How CAN you take anything from him as face value ???'

Sure enough, FJ ... I can't ...

Will I never learn ?

You can have a good laugh about that one at my expense, if you like, FJ. I admit it .. I deserve it. I should've really known better !!!


:laugh: Repeating refuted points doesn't magically grant them any more substance the second time around, it does however grant an air of desperation that grows with your mindless repetition. Even your imagination fails you. ;)

Such flattery there, FJ. Do you feel at home here in the Cage, by any chance ?

'Refuting' points ... meaning what, that you think you've trounced them, defeated them, given them a pasting ? SINCE WHEN ?? FJ, 'points' I make are valid, and remain valid, if I post them once or twenty times. We actually agree ... repeating the points doesn't add to their substance. But then, NO SUCH ADDITION IS NECESSARY ... A GOOD POINT REMAINS WHAT IT WAS, BEFORE.

Why does any repetition confer any interpretation of 'desperation', FJ ?

Has it not occurred to you that I'm trying to compensate for your attention-span problems ??

Oh, and by the way, has it not occurred to you that I'm trying to compensate for your attention-span problems ??


You've been pretty well pegged for quite some time now, your insistence on repeating your "leftie" blather only cements your status.

Why, thank you very much !!! I truly appreciate that. I'm very happy indeed with my status as an 'anti-Leftie' figure.:cool:

:laugh: I do find that funny. ;)


'Refuting' points ... meaning what, that you think you've trounced them, defeated them, given them a pasting ?

Good, you understand the definition and the pasting that your imagination received. Awesome.

You bozos couldn't ID a liberal if one was sitting on your head.

In my case, that's simply ridiculous. I've pointed this out before, just recently: my own society has been riddled with liberal types for generations, I think rather more than yours has in the US. In the face of that, to then 'take' your point would be an exercise in sheer absurdity.

Trust me in this. I know a Left-wing mentality when I deal with one. And I've been dealing with them all my life !


You've been challenged on several occasions to post examples of their support for Obama and his policies. You have as yet neglected to do so. Before your next "leftie" attack, how about backing it up with a couple?

As I recall it, I've been actually challenged to prove Left-wing bona fides, which I have indeed done .. certainly where FJ is concerned. It wasn't really very difficult in FJ's case, for example (.. and it actually DID include a pro-Obama example or two, as I recall ... would you care to check ?). As I see it ... proving liberalism is a far wider issue than just limiting this to Obama and his policies. Obama isn't forever .. his viability, not only as President, but as a Leftie capable of introducing policies, has a very definite shelf life.

Socialism's shelf life - sadly - can be expected to be altogether greater than this. Though, Missileman, you may be interested to know that I think Socialism will one day ITSELF be spurned, universally, as any credible philosophy to base any social model on. Human nature will make sure of it.

LOL, you really are quite clueless, do you just pick a thread to infect and not leave it? For if you paid even a bit of attention you would have seen Jim's other thread about how several posts were lost the other day when the hosting provider switched the forum to a different server. Again, keep up.

Thanks, Arbo. Oh, this is a good one !!

I see you AGAIN seem to be trying to suggest that I leave. Why ? Are you actually desperate to try and claim that I scuttled away, 'too afraid' to continue to take you on ?

Granted, it may not be that simple .. you might just be indulging your sense of humour. Well, enjoy the joke ...

As for your second sentence .. you might care to look at this post ....

http://www.debatepolicy.com/showthread.php?43859-Board-running-slowly&p=674366#post674366

Quoting from it:


Just caught up with the latest comments here.

Yep, quicker and smoother for me, too.

Also ... perhaps worth saying .. in 'another place', I just answered a comment from a contributor who claimed possible loss of a comment of his. I didn't take him seriously. After reading this latest crop of posts, I wonder if that was actually a mistake.

So thanks for this insight. When I'm next on here, I may address that issue directly with him.:beer:

Check out its timing, compared to the timing of your own criticism. Then consider the truth of your 'paying attention' jibe.

But I would say this. Even if posts disappeared, it doesn't necessarily have to mean that any of YOURS were involved. Yes, MAYBE so. But no specific proof exists, either way.


So again, you make the mistake of saying I am supporting a person, and because of that I am a leftie?

It's maybe a bit more complicated than that. But in essence, yes, certainly. We're not talking about a one-off here ... why, even I have been known to agree with an FJ post !!!! [Yes, it only happens very rarely, I can barely believe it myself, but even so ...]. In your case, though, support persists, POST after POST after POST. And, Arbo, this can only mean that you not only support posts, but the thinking behind them, and the basis for that !!!

Done consistently enough .. AS YOU INDEED HAVE .. the conclusion is ultimately inescapable. You support both the person, and what they represent.


You really are probably one of the dumbest members on this forum.

Look ... I really do KNOW that you're at home here ! You've no need to keep on proving it !!!!


Perhaps it's just not possible for you to understand the most basic of concepts and that's why you continue the same old same old, no matter that it makes you look like a dumbass.

Would that be ... the same old, same old, TRUTH ?

I think it would, Arbo.

And IS.

Don't worry. THIS time, I'm not taking your assertion on face value. Like the fictitious 'film title', I should obviously disbelieve you.


And of course I need to rewrite truth for you ......

And for the purposes of this thread, consider me from Missouri...

Maybe this has a significance I'm unaware of. Remember that I'm British, and there will be some things about America that'll be unknown to me .. just as I'd expect you to lack certain understandings about the British.


show me these examples you recall of either supporting Obama or his policies along with those supporting liberal policies.

... ah. So, you DON'T want me 'to use a different goal post', after all ?

But, actually, this doesn't matter - as it so happens. You see, when I posted on FJ before, I included Obama as part of what I was considering.

Perhaps I should just show you what I mean and be done with it. Observe .....

The thread post this leads to had two purposes - partly as a supplement to a previous posting, showing FJ's gratuitous usage of denigrations (.. far better suited to a Cage environment, although as FJ proved, he, as a Leftie, doesn't make these distinctions at all ..) ... and partly to offer some examples taken from other postings of his in the past where he'd variously indicated a preference for having liberal posters join us (.. in response to previous postings which had themselves exposed bias, by the way ... you should study all of that) ... also he was denigratory towards GW Bush in one .. oh, and yes, a couple of pro-Obama offerings.

Anyway, use the link. See it all for yourself. You have what you require from it.


As for that last sentence, you wouldn't be the first poster to accuse me of being a leftie who subsequently got that little tidbit shoved up their ass so far it put a twinkle in their eye.

I haven't checked. Are you a 'regular' in the Cage ?

My previous comment on that fell short of an outright accusation, so if you insist I clearly made one, you are misrepresenting me. That said ... I will NOW clearly state that, whether or not you truly are one, you definitely argue as though you're one. Oh, and in common with what you'd expect of the Left, I see you're combative against one Conservative ... ME.

Isn't it strange, how all these so-called 'conservatives', starting with FJ, want to FIGHT those who you'd think would be natural allies ? Far more sensible to instead infer that, in truth, they're nothing of the kind.

As to your threatening comment, though ... is that just Cage talk, or, are you expressing an actual enthusiasm for what you threaten ?

You should ... since this borrows from Leftie methodology, after all. Lefties do a lot of 'preferential' perceiving .. I would've expected, therefore, for you to pick up on that immediately.

It's puzzling that you didn't.

But heyy ... here's an interesting feature of your comment. Not content with just indicating support for FJ's posts every chance you get, and yet denying the obvious in the process ... you've EVEN gone FURTHER this time, and borrowed from a reply I made TO FJ, to offer support of him from it !!!!

You might as well answer for him, as you've adopted the habit already ...


There are many others on the right that said similar things, or do you suggest because they do not agree with you, they are lefties?

I say that a Leftie is far more likely to want to.

I challenge you, by the way, to find me examples of anyone definitely Conservative who's clearly as prepared to go that far in Obama's defence.


What your list of links shows, more than anything else, is that you really do not understand anything you read, and think that anyone that doesn't fall in step with you is a 'leftie'.

This is a generalised comment lacking substance. I recognise your difficulty in going any further.


Lord, you are incapable of simply showing solid items that would show someone to be a leftie.

Correction: YOU are incapable of discerning what's in front of you. Add all the examples up that I've offered in the link. Between them, the conclusion is inescapable ... for those not determined to defy it.


You just keep digging the whole of stupidity, don't you?

..... eh ????


Do you really think that anyone that might argue with someone on the right or disagree with them is a 'leftie'?

It's not absolute proof, no. It is, however, a very good indicator. And if they KEEP doing it, and never relent, then it becomes progressively harder to reach any contrary conclusion.

It's rather like your totally unshakeably persistent support of FJ, EVEN, now, answering FOR him !!


As if the world is simply black and white, left and right and each side is solid in their beliefs.

Each is PERSISTENT in their beliefs. And, certainly in the case of the Left, an agenda is followed ... an all-controlling agenda. Consider, for example, that various manifestations of the Left across the world try to copy each other, implement clones of each other. One example .. the British NHS, the first such system of its kind anywhere in the world ... and now, Obamacare, which isn't quite a copy, but nonetheless is the best any American President bent on instituting such a thing could possibly manage within two terms in America.


You really have to be a simple minded fuck to think like that, as you seem to do.

Do you realise that for a moment there, your language approached civil standards ? Still, this is the Cage, and you know this environment a lot better than I do.


I still await actual evidence I am a 'leftie'. :laugh:

Man you are such a fucking joke.

Will lack of civil decency do ?

.. Or your near-slavish support of an established Leftie ?

Or do I have to dig up research, to show you what you already know ?

Uh no, consistent with those that actually understand what is a solidly impeachable offense. It is actually the over emotional screams of 'impeach the traitor' that are more in line with how 'lefties' act. All emotion, nothing solid in the factual department.



I challenge you, by the way, to find me examples of anyone definitely Conservative who's clearly as prepared to go that far in Obama's defense.

Read the whole thread, there are several in there calling out the moronic cries for impeachment based on nonsense. Oh wait, that's right, we have already established your inability to comprehend the written word.


And, certainly in the case of the Left, an agenda is followed …

Both parties are agenda driven, that you are incapable of understanding that doesn't come as a shock at this point.



.. Or your near-slavish support of an established Leftie ?

You have yet to prove anything. I'm not sure you even understand HOW to go about proving ANYTHING.



I don't mind doing so, if you like. Thus far, FJ has been the focus of my attentions. Yes, I'm tired of that, and yes, I can move on.

It's as I say. The more one digs up, the more consistently damning the picture is proven to be.

Oh, by the way, that 'OWS Convention' reference ... being British, I've had to look it up, to know what it signified. Out of interest, here's what I've found ...

http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2012/07/31/occupy-wall-street-protesters-targeting-obama-at-democratic-convention-


A protest by any other name is still a protest. But not all protests are an occupation.

Two months after the major group planning to protest the Democratic National Convention changed its name, a new and bigger demonstration is being planned for the September event. This time, it's being led by "original" Occupy protesters.

Protest organizer John Penley, among the first to join the Occupy protests in Zuccotti Park, says some Occupy protesters were disturbed by the name change, which turned the "Coalition to Protest at the DNC" into the "Coalition to March on Wall Street South — Building People's Power During the DNC."

The change in nomenclature, he said, let Democrats off the hook.

And so despite the perception that Occupy is more liberal than it is conservative, Penley says his demonstration, "Occupy the Military Industrial Complex," will very much target President Barack Obama.

"We're targeting Obama's out of control military spending," he told Whispers. "It's the key to so many problems in the U.S. That, and the drone strikes on American citizens. And the NDAA. People feel so upset with Obama."

Interesting stuff.

As is your wont, you see what you want to in people's posts. I am not taking sides in this exchange but it is possible Drummond may have taken this little tidbit in a previous post by you to be a threat. Not being used to how we Americans often talk he could have easily gotten that idea on reading that. Could look to a person not so used to American colorful language as a threat. Now had you said that to me I wouldn't have taken it as a physical threat but then again I use language like that myself often.. My suggestion to my friend Drummonds is that( if it was his primary thought when saying you gave a threat) it is very colorful American smack talk and hell I thought it ok as far as it was intended.

I am not taking sides in this exchange but it is possible Drummond may have taken this little tidbit in a previous post by you to be a threat. Not being used to how we Americans often talk he could have easily gotten that idea on reading that. Could look to a person not so used to American colorful language as a threat. Now had you said that to me I wouldn't have taken it as a physical threat but then again I use language like that myself often.. My suggestion to my friend Drummonds is that( if it was his primary thought when saying you gave a threat) it is very colorful American smack talk and hell I thought it ok as far as it was intended. I didn't see enough in it to represent a real threat but you and I had our go round way back and both came to friendly terms over it. So I have a bit of insight he does not have.

It was metaphorical for a drubbing via debate. You can't physically shoves words or ideas up someone's ass. Yours and my eventual smoothing of a rocky road was a result of us looking at all of each other's posts and realizing for the most part, our politics are similar. Certainly not different enough to be online enemies over. There are some of us on the board who like to play devil's advocate to provoke thought and debate, it doesn't mean we're liberals. If and when a couple other posters on the board can arrive at their own understanding of who is and isn't a commie-pinko-fag-liberal, the board will smooth out. Yes...I continue to hope. BTW, honing arguments against those of us who like to ask tough questions can only improve one's ability to champion one's beliefs. One shouldn't feel threatened by tough questions unless one's shit is weak argument-wise.

The post where drummond's imagination gets smoked like a blunt at an OWS convention



Of course, your contemptuous reply to Tyr at the time ITSELF indicates where your sympathies really lay. Consistent with that of an arrogant LEFTIE pouring scorn (or trying to) against Conservatives.

It's as I say. The more one digs up, the more consistently damning the picture is proven to be.

:facepalm99: I wonder if you'll ever wise up to the truth or if you will always see what you want to see. And my reply wasn't "contemptuous," I was ribbing him in a lighthearted manner in the same lighthearted manner that he posted the thread in the first place.


Oh, by the way, that 'OWS Convention' reference ... being British, I've had to look it up, to know what it signified. Out of interest, here's what I've found ...

Interesting stuff.

It's really not that interesting and I'd be shocked that is the first time you've heard about OWS even being British and all. Besides, it was an analogy. ;)


But now we have it. Clear as day.

FJ, I am sure you are aware that opinion is a matter of personal perspective. What is Leftie to Drummond, may not be Leftie to you, and vice versa. But that doesn't make him wrong or you correct. It just makes you appear Leftie to him, but not to yourself.

I might even think more center of the road, but definitely not lefties. And then our new member, Arbo. The same thing, I don't see him as a leftie either. I see him being similar to the aforementioned. But Abbey is correct, what is considered middle of the road, or a left leaning conservative to me, might be outright leftie to others.

But then I think of Pelosi, Reid, Boxer, Feinstein, Obama, Hillary... And I can go on for quite awhile with that nut list. Suffice to say, I don't think these fellas are anywhere in the same universe, stance wise, as the liberal idiots we see helping run our country.

To some extent. But there are definitely certain 'stances' that someone that is a liberal or someone that is a conservative is understood to either support or stand against. The point in all of this exchange is that drummond is an idiot that doesn't have a clue and is incapable of backing up his claims, and if anyone disagree's with him his first go to move is to scream 'leftie!'

Umm, no. There is nothing subjective about it; he sees everything that is opposed to his view as "leftie" even when I can show that it's not... and in case you haven't noticed that anyone who dares suggest that his view is incorrect is also deemed as "leftie;" even Missileman for Pete's sake. If that doesn't give you a clue then I don't know what will. It comes down to conservative is more or less small government and liberal, or leftie in d's world, is big government. If you can show me where I have advocated big government as the solution to almost anything I might grant you your point. And he has more big government position than I. ;)

And BTW you might want to direct your comments in the future to the one who is actually beating the dead horse. :)

Well then we should define what is actually conservatism if you want to say that someone is middle of the road. I would argue that Libertarians are more conservative than Republicans and most of my positions are in the Libertarian camp.

Perhaps, perhaps. But that only backs up what Abbey said and I followed up with. Ones definition of what specifically makes someone a rightie, a leftie, a liberal, conservative or libertarian - these change. Sure, you can point a specific definition, but then it needs to be applied somehow with each and every issue and stance come up. With that stance, some will have different takes on whether it is a conservative, libertarian, constitutionalist... I think after time, and many issues, it's easier to get a grasp on where someone lies, but not all people will agree on that designation. It also shouldn't be REAL far apart either.

I think far too often that people get labeled by whether or not they agree with certain initiatives. I've often seen liberals in the webosphere labeled chicken hawks and neo-cons, simply because they didn't go full hook, line and sinker for the far kooky left liberal way. I call myself a far right chickenhawk neocon conservative, but I often have stances that are more in line with libertarian, strictly consitutional & even a tiny itty bitty handful of liberal stances in my years.

If you disagree, that's cool. But I've watched him post for a LOT longer than you have. The majority of what I have seen him post and have engaged him with, was not loaded with smilies or the larger font. I have seen him use the larger font from time to time though. I don't see the big deal though, it's something many do to make a point of their own stand out. It hardly makes them less intelligent. And I definitely do not see him as someone with a poor grasp of the English language. The only thing I see is a different type of speaking at times, based on him being from the UK of course. But I never saw him type unintelligibly, or like someone who wasn't educated.

I examined your "evidence" and found it totally lacking. Loyalty has nothing to do with it. I understand you believe you've made a case that fj1200 and Arbo are liberals. Your belief doesn't alter the fact that not only have you failed to provide a case of any consequence, you've presented no case at all. Your assessment that ONLY loyalty to other posters could be why I find no evidence to support your conclusion is what's landed you in the idiot camp.

A good attempt at much-needed balance, Abbey.

Thanks for this. I appreciate your obvious intent.

You go past allegations of being politically left of YOU and make unfounded accusations of support for Obama and his policies. Abbey's take on the political spectrum doesn't get you off the hook.

Umm, no. There is nothing subjective about it; he sees everything that is opposed to his view as "leftie" even when I can show that it's not... and in case you haven't noticed that anyone who dares suggest that his view is incorrect is also deemed as "leftie;" even Missileman for Pete's sake. If that doesn't give you a clue then I don't know what will. It comes down to conservative is more or less small government and liberal, or leftie in d's world, is big government. If you can show me where I have advocated big government as the solution to almost anything I might grant you your point. And he has more big government position than I. ;)

And BTW you might want to direct your comments in the future to the one who is actually beating the dead horse. :)

A good try, FJ. And I mean it sincerely. This is actually better than your usual debating standard.

But here's a thought in reply.

Who would regard Obama as anything other than an advocate (... and, of course, much more besides !!) for big Government ?

Now - for your latest posture to hold true, and for you to 'genuinely' not be a Leftie (or 'liberal', to use the more American term) ... it would need to be the case that you would never have posted anything interpretable as supportive of Obama. Yet .. even though the evidence I've repeatedly posted is widely derided (not least by Missileman, note !) ... I have shown that you ARE prepared to find reason to support Obama.

That, FJ, is simple fact.

You say you're anti-big Government. In post after post, you've claimed that I am an advocate, or supporter, of big Government !!! Your claim against me is simply a lie. And you HAVE found the basis, before now, to support Obama.

I need not go on, FJ, and I've long since become tired of you. ENOUGH. I shall now seek out the postings of one individual, here, whose opinions I always respect, without further diversion.

I am not taking sides in this exchange but it is possible Drummond may have taken this little tidbit in a previous post by you to be a threat. Not being used to how we Americans often talk he could have easily gotten that idea on reading that. Could look to a person not so used to American colorful language as a threat. Now had you said that to me I wouldn't have taken it as a physical threat but then again I use language like that myself often.. My suggestion to my friend Drummonds is that( if it was his primary thought when saying you gave a threat) it is very colorful American smack talk and hell I thought it ok as far as it was intended. I didn't see enough in it to represent a real threat but you and I had our go round way back and both came to friendly terms over it. So I have a bit of insight he does not have. So not a reading disorder but rather a misunderstanding. I trust this message may help both you guys as it's intended to do just that. -Tyr

YES. Thank you, Tyr. I can always rely on you to understand me, and also to offer valuable insights.

Missileman's continued baiting notwithstanding, I'll say this: without your intervention, there would've been no way I'd have ever accepted that I hadn't been on the receiving-end of a threat. Your point concerning differing cultures is, I'm sure, relevant ... I see absolutely no way at all that anyone British would've reacted any differently to myself. What you call 'colourful language' would, in my culture, have been the basis for acrimonious confrontation at absolute minimum, more probably a pitched battle otherwise. Such language would've been deemed highly offensive, even, under certain circumstances, grounds for a breach of the peace, therefore an arrestable offence.

I shall take your word for this, Tyr. And Missileman, Cage or not, I'm telling you to STOP baiting me. Tyr has offered some balance you might be wise to respect. But if you're not, then I wash my hands of you.

I would LOVE to hear where you consider yourself on the intelligence meter if you think Drummond is an idiot. I don't always agree with 100% of what he posts, but I have little doubt that he is much smarter than yourself. Do I think he is wrong in labeling certain members a leftie? IMO, yes, but that hardly makes him an idiot. I have my top ten list of which members I think are very intelligent and Drummond is right in there. May shock a lot of the members here but a couple my opposition here are represented well on that list too. I will never dare reveal their names here for fear that their heads will explode from either extreme shock or a massively expanding ego. :laugh: Drummond rates very high in my book as do several other members here and along with that list I rate 6 of the ladies here as very intelligent and at least three of them as simply brilliant in their postings.. Gonna piss some people here off but I believe Gabby was on that list last time I checked. When she is not deliberately trolling that is. ;) I note that one doesn't have to be a genius to post great posts with insightful information. Some have had life experiences that they share here and I find that a very valuable gift too .. I am currently on 5 forums but spend 90% of my time here. Must be a damn good reason.

Oh, and while you were quick to point out that he has poor English, you failed to capitalize.

It is fun to throw out a bone every now and then.


Denigration in lieu of proper substance. Not a totally unusual sort of offering from you, Arbo.

So yet again you deflect from backing up your claims of my political standing. 'Denigration', 'denigration', not relevant, either be a man and back up your words or STFU. Hows that for more denigration in order for you to make another excuse of not backing up your words? What a fool. :laugh:


Your belief doesn't alter the fact that not only have you failed to provide a case of any consequence, you've presented no case at all.

Spot on. In addition, it is noted that while others offer their opinion (for which drummond would label them a lefty as well if he was consistent) they seem to seek that this all 'end', coming to his aid. It's really quite transparent all the way around.


Missileman. Pardon the interruption here, but. Don't you think this has just about played itself out by now? When does the argument end?

Why do you care? You don't even need to read the thread. Or is this just more diversion from supplying any evidence to support your claim that liberals and libertarians are one in the same? :laugh: You are quite a joke… are you trying to outdo drummond?


I have my top ten list of which members I think are very intelligent

I'd bet anyone with two brain cells could figure out who is on it. It wouldn't be a surprise for sure.

I have no need to worry about explaining anything. I posted my opinion, based on what I read here, and oddly, see the similarities of both ideologies many either can't, or won't accept as truth.

If someone wishes to compare both. They might extract some of the denied similarities on their own. If, they have an open mind, and honestly wish to compare fairly.

My basis for my opinion comes from many years of listening to Neal Boortz...a known Libertarian who quite often attempted to explain those similar traits...much to the displeasure of Libertarians. And, oddly enough. Where he found many Liberal followers as well.
So. I have nothing to explain, or to make excuses for.

There is just about everything subjective about it. A person in WWII Italy would have a very different view of Fascism than someone in modern America, for example. Honestly, I am surprised that you cannot see that people's ideas about your beliefs are more based on where they stand, than where you may or may not feel you are.

If you firmly believe you are Conservative, or Libertarian, or at least not "Leftie", I can't imagine why Drummond's perceptions about you bother you so much. Surely a guy like you so firmly rooted in small gov't and anti-liberalism ;) has nothing to worry about if someone else disagrees with your self-identification.

Btw, I don't think you are a Leftie. I don't think you are a social conservative, either. From my POV, you are therefore kind of MOR. Hopefully that doesn't bother you enough to start calling me an idiot or moron, or whatever else some of you have been throwing at Drummond.

If Drummond is an idiot then I sure feel sorry for a lot of members here because they are well below him in the intelligence department. Of course he is not but sometimes people toss insults in anger that care not a bit about being true. I've been very angry here a few times and most of those times I never dared to call my opposition idiots. Some of my opposition here are far , far from being idiots. Yet they are wrong on many political subjects. Hell, even geniuses are quite often wrong on many things and even sometimes in the very field they are rated a genius in. A lot of this comes from a failure to understand cultural differences. D misunderstood the intent of one of Missileman's replies because in his culture THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN DEEMED A THREAT BY JUST ABOUT ANYBODY. HOWEVER, HERE IN AMERICA WE SEE IT AS IT WAS INTENDED JUST SOME SMACK TALK FROM A HIGH STRUNG GUY. AND MY DESCRIBING HIM LIKE THAT IS NOT AN INSULT BECAUSE I RATE MYSELF RIGHT IN THERE WITH HIM IN THAT REGARDS. Hell, I even consider being high strung-- as "sitting on ready and hoping for go" as a strong trait for a fighter. And I respect the living hell out of true fighters!

No you haven't. Stating that BO hasn't committed an impeachable offense in the scenario that was presented it not supporting BO; it is a statement of fact. But I will take your post as admission that you can't find instances of my support of "big government as solution" because I know that you can't.

Since we're discussing big government vs. small government and your choosing the big government side I need only point to your advocating of the biggest government intrusion and that is the unchecked power of the State over the individual; torture in one case and automatically stripping of citizenship rights, directly voiding the US Constitution, in another. You can attempt to justify that it isn't big government but that would be a lie.

And here is a little tidbit of information that you may have overlooked while looking for only what validates you... No one agrees with you on my "leftieness." :laugh:

I must ask if you have been paying any attention at all to his rants about socialists and "lefties"? We're not talking about the vagaries of Fascist Italy 70 years ago and comparison to today, we're talking about basically his view of the Socialist expansion of government. There really is nothing subjective about it. Sure, you and I can quibble over precise conservatism and Libertarian vs. Republican but that is in no way the differences being discussed. But point taken about from where he stands; he sees then "everywhere," even where they are not. ;)

As far as me being "bothered" you are apparently misreading my laughter ;) because I take notice that no one agrees with him anyway and it's theater to watch him twist and wind his logic around a false assumption.

And FWIW, I note your accurate assessment BTW, ;) I have never claimed to be a social conservative. If, however, you were to take my gay marriage stance, as example, and state that I'm a "social leftie" because of it in direct opposition to my pro-life position and actual position of removing the State from the definition of marriage, which countless here agree with btw, and were to repeat said accusation over hundreds of posts and countless threads... then yes, I might begin to question your intelligence on the matter. But I know that isn't the case. :)

And trust me he is that far right and dedicated to stand against liberalism, socialism and "Allahism" too. At least that's my view of my friend. Lets just suppose that you only go centralist on issues and never go leftist . To some that would still put you into the leftist camp. Myself, I've chosen to not enter this debate on either side. A very rare act for me to do that but I've done so for a good reason.

Now Drummond has every right to judge if I spoke correctly about him ,his character and his views on this. I'll not dispute his words should he correct anything I've just posted because he obviously knows himself and his reasons on this far better then I. However, I suggest to you that you not misjudge the man's character based upon this one issue. I met Drummond at another forum and invited him here. I did so because he is a solid , honorable guy and very intelligent IMHO. I made amends with you a short while back because I had let my anger cause me to previously misjudge you greatly. Step back and ponder if you are making the same mistake about him. You should take that as a friendly suggestion. Or even ignore my unsolicited advice as is your right. Neither one will cause me any further concern. As I have on this one issue tried to stay out of it.

Which would all be fine if they could actually point to specific instances. I've challenged all three and they have thus far come up empty. Two of them won't even answer directly so if that tells you anything. Apparently I gauge intelligence a bit differently when he has obvious trouble in identifying my positions but then judges others based SOLELY on their agreeing with me as also "lefties." These things should tell you something. You guys agree, are friends, trade Christmas cards, whatever... but if he's having this much trouble then you might want to mention something. He could also just drop the subject and not have to relive it every time that he wants to debate about something but that's all he seems to dwell on.

We could also argue about what is "centralist" because I don't recall arguing any point that is opposite to liberty, natural rights, the Constitution as I'm not sure where I don't "adamantly and strongly oppose" where logic and reason dictate that I do. It is my stated position that going batcrazy against Dems/libs is ultimately a losing proposition if your positions are wrong or at the very least poorly thought out.

I assume the message board you refer to - if not imaginary - veers towards an especially extremist Left of centre position.

But talking of an 'agenda' .. it's difficult to see that you're not following one, considering that you are still persisting with the nonsense that you are a so-called 'Thatcherite'

You are no such thing.

Why would you persist with the fiction that you are ?

I have set you a challenge once before about that, which you flunked the first time. I shall now set it again, to see if you can do any better. You SHOULD .. since you've had so much time since then to do your belated, PREVIOUSLY LACKING, research --

You claim that when you want Thatcherism, you 'go to the source'. Describe for me, in some detail, what 'source' (your word, originally) you are referring to.

I can only speak for myself, the problem I'm having with this site is the most passionate postings are hateful towards other posters and found in this forum, the cage.

I just want to say to many of you: "I miss you! I hope sometime you will put forward the effort to post beyond the cage."

A word: Notice there are a few or some or one that doesn't post much if not 'cage active' material? The rest of you do control that. Just a word.

I really do miss so many here, but not feeling comfortable explaining what is going on with me, I'm assuming no privacy on any threads. If anyone wishes to know what's up, pm me. Tough times, little to waste.

I assume the message board you refer to - if not imaginary - veers towards an especially extremist Left of centre position.

That's the problem. Along with the fact that you are stuck on stupid.

Fucking prove I am a liberal… you said you were up to it. And yet all we see is your return to the same blathering bullshit about FJ that you seem to want to KEEP making a fool of yourself with.

No wonder it was so easy to kick your asses during the revolution, a bunch of fucktards that can't back themselves up.

STILL answering for FJ, I see, in answer to posts I make to him ????

This is just crazy. You say, in your characteristically charming way, 'Fucking prove I am a liberal'. Arbo, my being 'up for it' ceased to be the point a number of pages ago. More relevant is the obvious point that YOU ARE UP FOR IT. You KEEP being up for it.

How many pages has it been, Arbo, where you so solidly stick to supporting an outed Leftie that I wonder if you're using superglue ?

It's like saying 'prove the world is round' to, say, NASA ....

Yes. Of course you don't want me to refer again to FJ, because right there, is settlement of the matter !!! What a waste of my time you are.

Don't worry, Kathianne. This portion of the forum is altogether too dysfunctional for my tastes. One, perhaps two, more posts here, and I'm done.

Make a point, prove it repeatedly, and all you get for your trouble here is sworn at. Well, life's too short for that pointlessness.

I leave this place to those posters who are the best suited to continuing with it.

My best -

And there it is, FJ. Exactly as expected. A TOTAL EVASION, A COP OUT.

You, the supposed 'Thatcherite', haven't the smallest clue as to what I'm talking about. Fact is that any fan of Lady Thatcher WOULD have understood this by now, and given me the proper answer.

Challenged, repeatedly now, to tell us what your 'source' is for 'Thatcherism' and what you refer to ... and you haven't the slightest idea of an answer ... yes, OF COURSE YOU HAVEN'T.

THIS IS BECAUSE YOU'RE A TOTAL FRAUD. A 'THATCHERITE' WOULD KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT HER LIFE, HER ACHIEVEMENTS, HER LEGACY, WOULD KNOW WHAT SHE LEFT FOR POSTERITY IN ORDER TO KEEP HER BRAND OF CONSERVATISM ALIVE. AND YOU DO NOT !!

I shall now tell you what answer(s) I have been looking for .. since you're incapable of producing them yourself.

Anyone knowing of her work and life would know that she wrote about it, and that her work achieved 'best seller' status. Observe ..

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/568310.The_Downing_Street_Years

From this link, you can see ...


The New York Times bestselling memoirs of Margaret Thatcher provide a riveting inside look at her role as a world leader and the events and personalities that shaped her years as Britain's prime minister.

THE NEW YORK TIMES ... so you can't claim your nationality as any impediment to this knowledge (and the Internet is international, of course).

You can check this out on YouTube, Or via the BBC. Or, 'Thatcherite' that you 'are', you could've bought her book. Couldn't you ?

BUT YOU HAD NO IDEA ABOUT ITS EXISTENCE.

You 'go to the source' ? Oh, really ? Lady Thatcher wrote that book !!

But here's my other answer .. the other reply you could've given, IF ONLY YOU'D HAD ANY CLUE ABOUT IT !!

http://www.margaretthatcher.org/


Welcome to the official website of the Margaret Thatcher Foundation, the largest contemporary history site of its kind.This site offers free access to thousands of documents—many of them previously unpublished—relating to Margaret Thatcher and world events during the last thirty years.

Yes, FJ .. the largest contemporary history site of its kind. And you, the 'Thatcherite', COULDN'T THINK TO TELL US ABOUT IT .. WHEN CHALLENGED .. TWICE.

Your claim to be a 'Thatcherite' is a fraud. The Thatcher Foundation is easily the most natural answer any knowledgeable Thatcher supporter could've given when asked to describe the 'source' of material used. AND YOU DIDN'T HAVE A CLUE.

So explain why a genuine Conservative would fraudulently claim to be a Margaret Thatcher supporter.

Unless, of course, YOU ARE NO SUCH THING.

... ok .. enough said on this subject. My case, and not for the first time, is a proven one. But, proven or not, that proof will be denied as the proof it is, by those too interested in defending FJ to care about the truth. Yet, despite such deliberate myopia, STILL, we're supposed to believe that those offering these defences are doing so honourably, as 'non liberals' who are 'not' defending a comrade.

What a total waste of time it is to keep slogging away, trying to reason with those who have their own reasons for denying what's right in front of their faces.

I am now leaving the Cage. I shall leave others to their hate messages, insults, selective blindnesses, whatever makes them happy. Enough already ..

You really are a waste of a human life. First you say your up to it, now you say you are not. All surrounded by nothing more than excuses and made up BS. The norm for you. You and your claims are full of shit and far removed from reality, and you have NEVER supported a single one of them with actual evidence, just more BS each and ever time.

And what you mean by dysfunctional is that there is opposition to your blather and not your normal knucklehead crew parroting ignorance. Yeah, that's dysfunction. "Prove it repeatedly..." :laugh:

I do admit that you know all about copping out because you constantly avoid any challenge put forth to you. I have no interest in answer any of your "challenges" because your SOP is to ignore reason and logic and fall back on your "leftie" crutch and ignorant assumptions. Your assertion that I need to recite every bit of information that I've absorbed over the years about the Thatchmeister ;) is patently ridiculous. It's like asking me to source everything I know about Reagan and use that to prove some mindless point. Besides, when I point out something that Mags believed in you discard her words with some sort of suggestion that she would bend to your disgusting positions. I don't buy it and I'm sure she wouldn't either.

So, run along now as you've proven you're not able to hang unless you've got some knuckleheads praising your sort of blather. And I leave you with this:


And here is a little tidbit of information that you may have overlooked while looking for only what validates you... No one agrees with you on my "leftieness." :laugh:
