i've got to say it...
some of the posters on the board have really crossed the line IMHO. why does every thread have to devolve into more Bush bashing? ok, you don't like bush... we get it. we ALLLLLLLL get it.
from stupid, to babykiller, to fascist, to moron, to a horseman in the apocalypse, to hick to warmongerer... it has all been said. we've all read it hundreds of times. do you get it? nothing is left. why say it over and over still?
there isn't a person alive who i would say those things about, yet some of you feel fully qualified in your presumably average lives to criticize the President of the United States in such familiar terms.
there is certainly room to disagree with the President. i'm a conservative and i do myself at times. i'm not advocating that he be given a pass... the President should be held to the highest level of intellectually honest scrutiny. the problem comes in when you do not afford the President the same level of respect the mods require you to display to other TFP posters.
if you're a poster who does this chronically (and there are many out there), please rethink what you're adding to the TFP community. if you decide to keep on doing this, at least don't be pretentious enough to complain about the mudslinging in politics. don't martyr yourself, you are part of the problem.
