184. Your characterizations are untrue and rather pathetic.

Talk about nasty attitudes--your post is full of 'em. It's also full of some grand hyperbole.

And if you actually think a comment of mine, on this advocates' discussion board, is going to "turn off dozens" and 'harm' the President, then you're imbuing me with an authority even I don't claim to possess. I drive people by the dozens to the polls, to vote for Warren and Obama and local "D" candidates. I don't cheerlead for a jerk who didn't support Al Gore for the Presidency, and who has shown very little enthusiasm for climate change issues to this point in time.

This is a discussion board--the purpose here is the exchange of views in a context that assumes support for Democratic candidates--not for those who find some kind of fake "equivalence" between the candidates. It's a board for Democrats and those who SUPPORT Democrats for election, and the rules get tighter during election season. All this is in the TOS--it's an easy read. Here's a link--take note of the paragraph that says "Vote for Democrats." It's instructive.

Great job of harming the president Jakes Progress Oct 2012 #169

Shoot the messenger, avoid the message altogether. Great strategy. NOT. Zalatix Oct 2012 #119

Put your little gun away. Your misrepresentation is deliberate, obvious, and tiresome. MADem Oct 2012 #126

They are entirely consistent with the facts. MADem Oct 2012 #157

Just *saying* your words are consistent with the facts doesn't mean that they are. ronnie624 Oct 2012 #162

Why are you hyper-replying to me? MADem Oct 2012 #187

Hyper-replying? What does THAT mean? Zalatix Oct 2012 #191

I only respond when you write yet another falsehood about my perspective or person. MADem Oct 2012 #216

I already know peace. Michael Moore was not wrong. Not one thing he said was wrong. Zalatix Oct 2012 #298

Who save you said he was "wrong?" Stop making thing up -- it is so easy to see that's what you are MADem Oct 2012 #303

If he's not wrong then you have absolutely no case. Zalatix Oct 2012 #308

Are you leaving home? Is that your suit case by the door? MADem Oct 2012 #312

You don't even understand what the word 'case' means, do you? Zalatix Oct 2012 #327

I know it's not a synonym for OPINION--but you're acting like it is. MADem Oct 2012 #329

Your opinions are based on gross factual errors. That is being charitable. Zalatix Oct 2012 #331

Keep your charity--you plainly need it. And no, my opinions are grounded in facts. nt MADem Oct 2012 #333

You accused Michael Moore of stealing from Al Gore. This is factually untrue. Zalatix Oct 2012 #336

That's because MaDem has been nailed right to the wall. A temper tantrum was to be expected. Zalatix Oct 2012 #148

Every single time. ronnie624 Oct 2012 #152

No, I am not. MADem Oct 2012 #287

Yes, you are. Full stop. Zalatix Oct 2012 #299

No. And you're not "telling the truth." MADem Oct 2012 #300

None of these points are untrue: Zalatix Oct 2012 #306

Yes, they are untrue. And your claims are absurd in the extreme. MADem Oct 2012 #318

I cited your personal attacks. My claims are proven. You don't have counter examples. Zalatix Oct 2012 #325

Sorry--you are wrong. No sale. And you have a nice day too. nt MADem Oct 2012 #328

I am right and you are wrong. My cites are all true and logical. And you have no counter facts. Zalatix Oct 2012 #330

Yeah, sure, sure, whatever you say. MADem Oct 2012 #340

Clueless. Jakes Progress Oct 2012 #173

I'm not finding your attempts at insult very interesting. MADem Oct 2012 #239

But it is a form of attention that you can't resist. Jakes Progress Oct 2012 #272

Wait, you started it with the insults. With several people, no less. Zalatix Oct 2012 #297

There you go again--making stuff up. MADem Oct 2012 #304

Here you go again - denying the facts. I hereby cite the proof that you instigate insults. Zalatix Oct 2012 #307

Get a grip. Really. That's not a personal attack, either--it's a genuine concern with regard to MADem Oct 2012 #338

It's a personal attack. And concern for others' well being? Physician, heal thyself. Zalatix Oct 2012 #339
