    As I said before ....

    Not big on leaving things alone, are you ?
    You insist upon keeping contention alive (.. and in order to NOT attack Conservatives here ??). But, as has been pointed out, the Steel Cage exists for the type of exchange you keep on trying to foment.

    You could try using it, FJ. Better than your customary ....

    Why would I want to meet you? When you don't like what someone says, you shout. When you still don't like it, you shout louder. But I'm sure it would be so much more fun to be not threatened in person.

    But Jeff is very nice, good people. I'm sure you'll enjoy your time here.

    Here's a shortened quote (an extract) from a 'Jim' posting ...

    Lots of reasons to shorten a post
    The intended meaning of the message hasn't been lost in reproducing it. It means what it says. Shortening, in this example, is not offered for abusive effect.

    When you shorten other's posts in quoting them .. can you honestly say the same ? If there are indeed 'lots of reasons to shorten a post', to ABUSE or MISREPRESENT that post isn't included in that.

    That, FJ, is trolling behaviour.

    Trolls have abusive intent ... and they persist. As you're currently doing.

    I made no threat, just thought , people understand each other much better when speaking in person.
    You know, my liberal side coming out and all.

    Will you be persisting with another "Thatcherite" diatribe in the near future? It's a matter of when, not if.

    You object to being reminded of your - now former - claim to being a 'Thatcherite' ?

    Well, that's OK. I found it objectionable, too.

    If your coming to realise how objectionable that was is now realised ... I'd have to conclude that my posting on that point had a worthwhile purpose, and effect.

    Feel free to thank me, should you feel so inclined ...

    I merely object to your trolling. I'm still a Thatcherite. I was hopeful that removing the reference would remove your internal rage.

    Thatcherites don't denigrate other Thatcherites. Both your 'Ultimate Thatcherite' and 'One True Thatcherite' claims did exactly that.

    I think you removed 'the reference' because even you came to understand that you couldn't credibly continue with them.
