Ky - Yep. Sure does. I say anything, and you have the last word. I noticed that too.

Thanks for the nod TonyT

And once again you're talking out of your arse.

I've responded to very, very few of your posts. Life is too short to respond to the vast amount of verbal diarrhoea that you spew, and in fact I can't even be bothered to read most of it anymore since it's been a while since you've had anything worthwhile to say.

On those occasions where I had the last word, it's because you didn't respond. So if you want to see a pattern, it's that you apparently don't have any valid arguments against my arguments. But that's no surprise since you seldomly have valid arguments against most people's arguments on here (the difference being that you still go on arguing with them). You're too narrow-minded and full of your BS to notice, though.

Don't bother replying to this post, I'm not going to waste my precious time off this weekend by reading more of your tripe.

PS: In case you're wondering what set me off, it's your attitude in the Calvin and Hobbes thread.

The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter.

I'll grant you that you might shrug. But I think you'd have a hard time making the case that only the right has wacko-extremists who go apoplectic if you criticize the politician du jour. There are certainly people on the left that are every bit as extreme in their devotions as people on the right. There are people every bit as intolerant and offensive (to wit: I have, on this board, been told that burning Christians at the stake would be entertaining). It may be the case, Soup, that you are one of the folks on the left who doesn't by into the cult of personality being erected around, for instance, Hilary Clinton. But that doesn't mean that there aren't extremists on your side of the aisle, as well. I guess my real concern here is that once one side feels free to label the other as "moronic," they subsequently stop listening to what the other has to say. And pardon me if I'm terribly naive, but I happen to think that open dialogue among all sensible people (and not just those who agree with you) is the way to move the country forward.

The right doesn't have the market on hatred and bigotry, you know.

See, this is what I've been saying.

Great idea. Now if only you can get people to buy into it instead of image and counter image:
McCain - maverick
Kerry - flip-flopper
and so on ....
