That is a lovely source you have there in fff.org

REASON FOR ALERT:
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)
ALERTER'S COMMENTS:
obviously the implication of this posters remark was an unambiguous and intended insult to my intelligence, with the only "surprise" being that your jurors saw fit to punish the retaliation for it, while leaving it undisturbed and intact.
Obviously the poster sought to attribute to me a sharing of ALL the povs of the org that posted the work of the author in the course of tacitly conceding their impotence in the face of it with the dishonest subject change their effort was, and their "I'm not a bit surprised" line was nothing more or less than an expression of the disdain they had for them, and me by association.
Their response was NOTHING BUT an assault on and an insult to me, other than being what I described it as -- a classic dodge commonly used by the incapable in the form of "attacking the source".
As the provocateur, I'd ask that their post be similarly treated in the pursuit and interest of, "fair play". They have no business whatsoever in claiming, directly or by implication, that I subscribe to the stuff the stuff they quoted in lieu and because of their inability to substantively address the issues I raised and the points I made with them.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sun Jun 3, 2012, 11:34 AM, and the Jury voted 0-6 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I was going to hide for calling another person "stupidicus", then I realized that was the other poster's actual DU name. Other than that, there is nothing hideworthy. Not being happy at someone else's argument is not a reason to hide it. The alerted on post is 99% a copy/paste from an actual source in question.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Impeaching the credibility of a listed source with their own words is fair game.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
