And maybe you should go back and read the beginning of this thread, and count all those people asking me to explain that point? And who was insulting and attacking who?

That's not what she was asking you to explain.
She asked about your football celebration example, and you refused to explain.

That's fine I guess, but I'm not sure why you're surprised when people "bash" you when you insist on behaving in that fashion.

Strange attitude you have about who is allowed to say what. Someone spends several posts dissing me and insulting me, then suddenly pretends they want to have a serious conversation, and I should just ignore their behaviour a few minutes prior?

Have you read this thread? Go back to page one, read it through, and count how "badly" I've behaved.

I don't know what you mean by this.

In the post you quoted from me I said that I thought it was "fine" that you chose not to respond. Obviously you're free to say whatever you want, but behavior has consequences.

I have strongly disagreed with Antitrust dozens of times on here. I think she's a right-wing nut and I'm sure she thinks I'm a lefty lunatic, but our discussions and debates are almost always civil and reasonable.
Yours aren't.
Why do you think that is?

miraj... I disagree with about 85% of everything the Republicans come up with! I think Clinton (while he had a lot of problems) was 10 times the president that GW was!

I consider myself very fiscally conservative... and I do not consider republicans to be fiscally conservative.

Plus I am semi pro choice and a lesbian!! I take offense to being in the same category of Nascar and my good buddy del!

with that said..

I'd much rather be called a right wing nut than a liberal any day of the week

I know.
I was just trying to make the point that we disagree a lot.
I'm well aware of the vast difference between you and people like Nascar and del.

You're one of my favorite people to argue with on here because since you actually THINK about things, I'm arrogant enough to believe I still have a chance of converting you on an issue or two. I'm not going to argue much with those other guys. What's the point?

thats what I like to say to straight girls


I didnt really take offense... I just wanted to be able to throw in that liberal line


but yeah, I enjoy a good political debate with people on all sides of the spectrum. Sometimes you learn new things! and there are always lots of different situations that can affect your judgement.

like this for example:

I watched a 3 hour documentary on Reagan the other night and couldnt believe how similar he and GW Bush are. I was just a baby for the Reagan years and just listened to my Dad when it involved Reagan (my dad loves Reagan).

But Star Wars!?!? what a waste of money

And I had no idea the debt when from 997 billion to 2.85 trillion during those years.

We went from being the largest international creditors to the largest international debtors during the 80's.

Ending the cold war was a very good thing... but Gorbechev (sp?) deserves as much credit for that as Reagan.

And dont let me get started on Iran-Contra.

I'm cutting myself reading this thread.

I don't know what you mean by this.

You chastize me for what you perceive to be unacceptable responses on my part, but you don't say a word about the same behaviour here in others. That's a strange set of social standards you hold. I'm quite happy to treat other posters here precisely as they treat me.
