(57,771 posts)You are one person. Comments on your VIEWS are not personal attacks. That you consider them attacks indicates you are uncomfortable with your positions on those issues. Being left or right doesn't hinge around absolute deference to you. You are not immune from criticism on positions you take. No one forced you to respond to me, particularly when your post didn't even relate to mine. I am not a right winger because I fail to pay homage to you and instead comment on what I see as an astounding disconnect in your views. You quite proudly post your OPs. Now you are put out because I notice the positions you publicly take? And even more strangely you continue to refer to yourself in the royal plural. I'm sorry, but I see you as an ordinary human being, who can be questioned like any other. I do not share your view that you, more than the President or the likely contenders for the 2016 nomination, represent Democrats writ large. You are not the embodiment of the Democratic party or Democrats generally. In fact, you have made no secret of the fact you don't think much of the party. So this continual reference to yourself, one person, as "Democrats" is frankly bizarre. You are no more important than any other member of this site or any other human being on the planet, and there is no reason you should expect me or anyone else here to pay deference to you.
In the future, save yourself the agony and don't respond to my posts.
