This will come as no great surprise, I'm sure. My ex and I visited DC. We had the honor of being admitted to the chambers of the SC in a group. Scalia looked very, very bored and very nasty.

Do you feel that threatened by him/her that you have to come on this board and only reply, insult and stalk watcher's postings?

Truly pathetic.

you must be a fresh new face. Some of us get plane tired of that person constant replies with same old same old. Any thing negative about conservatives and it is "oh yeah -- what about BARNEY FRANKS and CHRIS DODDS?" It just gets old.
Well.....what ABOUT them? You want to point out the negative... - watcher
[ In Reply To ..]
about Republicans (and not all conservatives ARE Republicans may I point out)....while totally ignoring or in any way acknowledging that the Democrats have even WORSE folks on their side...those guys are largely responsible for the tanked economy for crying out loud! If you are not going to present both sides, I certainly will....and I am NOT a Republican.
patently rediculous - LATRINa

The bush regimen wrecked the economy. You expect the president to come in and fix 8 years worth of damage in 9 months. The ragged right has tried to besmirch the term liberal and now are in the process of distorting the term independent to mean "crazier by far than the usual republican" Balderdash.
Deflect, deflect...still not acknowledge or admit the two mentioned... - watcher
[ In Reply To ..]
and when you can't rebutt, play the Bush card. The post had nothing to do with the President. And Bush did not orchestrate the economic downfall, in fact his admin TRIED to make Barney listen, but he refused. It is all documented, even in video. Live in denial if you like, or prove that Barney Franks and Chris Dodd did not do more than ANYONE to sink the economy. You can't. Because they did. And most everybody who posts her knows that. They just will not admit it. But at least they don't actually post that Bush tanked the economy because they KNOW better. Which gives them not much, but definitely MORE credibility than you currently enjoy.

And, with all due respect, you can name call and sling all the mud you want. I know what independent is...it is independent of either party, which is what I am. Sorry if that chaps your liberal hide...but you are just going to have to live with it, because if I am going to be defined by anyone it will NOT be you. Talk about balderdash....LOL.

As do many. nm - Latrina

I have been posting on this board for several years now, occasionally, but less so over the last several months because of the disrespectful, crude and hateful posts that seem to be increasing.  Very rarely do I respond to these types of posts because, IMHO, its useless.  What I did see this morning, however, was a person who came on the board and instead of discussing the issues at hand, they merely went down the board, singled out posts made by *watcher* and then posted meaningless and nonsensical posts behind *watcher's* posts.  Honestly, what good is this? 


No, I do not always agree with *watcher's* posts, nor do I agree with NJ, ME, Nikki or anyone else who posts here all of the time but I do try and remember that sitting on the other side of that post is a person.  This is someone who is apparently very passionate about the topic at hand and if I do respond, I do it with as much respect as I would if I were face to face with this person.  To go down the board and single out posts made by 1 person is childish and ridiculous.  Again, all in my opinion. 

welcome officialy retracted - latrina

and it is obvious that you do not come to the board often. The same goes for Chris Dodd, Nancy Pelosi and Barney Fife.
