    I didn't claim anything about the right wing. My claim was that the forum leftwingers are not lovers of freedom and justice. Your answer was not in reply to my comment, but was a diversion.

    the forum right wingers are the ones who do not care for freedom and democracy - open your eyes and read the many hate filled posts they make here

    Like a Buddhist once told me, it's about the middle path.
    Like Taoism says, Yin and Yang.

    I'm just against state control in the face of freedom.

    many forum right wingers claim they believe the same - but they have no qualms about taking your tax dollars to foment wars overseas or to finance Israel's war machinery and health care while poor Americans die due to lack of health care

    at the same time while proclaiming the right to "freedom", these same pundits look the other way as racist cops kill innocent blacks while those same cops spread drugs and other forms of corruption in the ghettoes

    so yes, you people talk "freedom" but your actions often speak something else

    I am a forum rightwinger. I do believe in freedom and justice (why did you change that to freedom and democracy, which is different). The thing is, on both sides of the spectrum, there are groups that believe in freedom and democracy, and those that do not. IMHO, many of the leftwingers here don't believe in freedom and justice, and I agree that many of the rightwingers don't.

    On the contrary, many lefties here endorse freedom and justice by condemning gerrymandering while right wingers happily endorse this injustice. Lefties endorse Palestinian rights while righties applaud Zionist Nazi style tyranny. Lefties endorse universal health care, righties condemn it while happily applauding the USA's finance of Israeli health care. Righties claim to be pro life but happily endorse USA imperialistic terrorism which dumps bombs on innocent foreign children while domestic children suffer illness due to lack of adequate food resources or lack of health care. I can give you dozens of other examples to prove that it is American lefties who value freedom, life, and justice while righties promote war, hate, injustices, imperialism, and other forms of evil.

    It would seem those on the right (Politicians and by extension voters) have begun the process of dismantling many long standing and hard won rights and protections that have in the past been things Republicans championed. This trend when combined with the angry attitude and hatred that is Trumpism has forced many (myself included) to abandon the Republican label and lend voices to the opposition. As things like McConnell showing blatant hypocrisy and Ryan displaying the jelly he calls backbone take place the opposition is fueled and disgust grows.

    There is a lot of people I appreciate, among people I agree with regulary, I appreciate @Texas Republican @ArmySoldier @cerberus , for people I agree rarely with, I have some respect for @alexa and @Durandal. They're obviously wrong because they disagree with me, but they stay globally respectfull, and that's a good quality.

    By the way, I forget a lot of people.

    A lot of other people get me really on the nerves, but it's not the topic right now.

    (To steer this back on track after your flame baiting)

    Republicans are not your favorite posters?

    You're able to create some interesting topics too, but globally I had no problems with you, and I'm not always an easy guy to talk with.

    May well be the best poster on this forum. I cannot help but admire the way he easily defeats the right wingers even though 3 or 4 may try to ambush him at a time. It's the old story of men against the boys whenever he takes them on as they haven't got a chance in heck against him.

    The use of excessive fancy words doesn't make one a 'good poster'. As the saying goes, if you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, then baffle them with busllsh!t". That's pretty much what he is doing.

    Interestingly, it would seem his "Dazzling BuIIshit" has managed to gain him respect and notoriety completely lacking in your persona (which I had not noted until just now).

    I guess if you need to use big words to 'gain respect' around here, then he'll be a star.
    I don't come here to impress anyone. Us quiet types are the ones you need to worry about. ;)

    You have a speech impediment, apparently. I didn't know that also affected one's ability to type.

    Just a wee bit defensive of your shining star, I'd say. Carry on, Nigel.

    meta777 because he's going to great lengths to be bipartisan, non inflammatory, respectful of the 1st amendment and listen to what people say. He's actually polling because he wants to know what people think rather than just making assumptions. His polls aren't pure trash designed as traps, I think he may go OTT with the polling selection though lol.

    We could all learn something from Meta777.

    I see him as nothing more than a flame baiter and he is the only forum member I have ever blocked.
