If you ever post a comment that rises above a bark or a squeal I might respond.

You're too irrelevant for me to put much thought into anything.
You make a ton of rules just to be a hypocrite, it's quite comical that you can actually do this and act like you're serious. You are all up in arms and ask for examples but then when someone shows you examples, you make a list of excuses for why its ok. Because they don't have a big audience, because they are stupid, because they are only making fun of someone for being stupid... etc etc
You just don't realize how pathetic you look right now. Not even the people on your side are over here agreeing with you and that says a lot. Just give it up, you've been exposed in this thread. Unsubscribe and find another post to fake intelligence on.
By the way, you did respond.

I gave examples, and others in rebuttal. I discussed specifically how their's did not fit the issue in question. You and they are free to respond in even more detail or with a logical explanation of how I am wrong. So far you and they have only resorted to simple declarations of this unproven assertion, a tactic I am as immune to as I am to not having a peanut gallery telling me how right I am. I know when I'm right - and admit if I'm uncertain - and the lack of reasoned counter arguments only confirm it.

It's really not hard to figure this out Row. This is basic comprehension and understanding. You are making up a bunch of rules for something to be ok just to fit your agenda. At the end of the day, making fun of someone is making fun of someone. Both sides do it, people in general do it. But you.... you want to sit here and create rules and disregard anything from your side of the fence only to be all up in arms for the other side doing the exact same thing.
It's bad because they are making fun of something they can't change -- Well yes they can, there is surgery, which probably cost the same amount as their clothes.
It's ok to make fun of someone that is stupid -- Why? What if they can't get any smarter? You're making fun of someones mental capacity but making fun of their looks is ok?
If they don't have a big audience its ok -- Again, why? So because they have a small amount of people listening to them, its ok? Thats the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
See you can't just sit here and go willy-nilly making any rules just so your side wins a moral victory. Every politician and every government party lap dog does the same stuff. Quit acting like your chit smells any better than anyone else's.

Sorry, but in my book, speaking of someone's unchangeable physical attributes - and especially when aimed only at women - is bad manners that reflects on us all. You don't agree? Fine, but don't claim it is not happening and mostly from one direction of our political sphere. the evidence says otherwise. Politician's have always and will hopefully always be subject to insults about their intelligence and opinions regardless of gender. My well mannered Republican mother would agree with that - if she were still here.
Nowhere did I say that insults of this form from those on the left was OK or excusable, though I did say - and still do - that it does not resonate with the left for some reason and is not picked up by it's general population. The lack of examples on TH - and the regular examples of this offensive behavior from many on the right here - demonstrates this point. What this says about the left and right is not that one is better than the other - in fact I have many times stated the exact opposite of that and added that some of my best friends who I consider of very high moral character are on the right politically - but that in this one particular area, many of you on the right have developed a bad habit which is lowering standards for political discourse. I think I know where it came from - the leader of party opinion is a low life - but why it resonates is beyond me.

By the way, I took my turn. You can move the goalposts all you like, but the reality is there is no fundamental difference in decency between members of the two parties.

Glad to clear that up but that idea was never advanced by me. I was quite specific in my charge.

No, therefore un-emblematic of leftist thought, unlike the example of Rush and his many parrots across America. Surely you get the point and only pretend otherwise.

Yes, reshaping reality again.
When a right leaning pundit says something it reflects on literally every Republican. When a left leaning pundit says something it's "un-emblematic" of leftist thought.
Amazing. Really, think about this.

This thread had more staying power than I thought.

Of course I didn't say that either, and your ignoring salient points and rephrasing them is becoming tiresome.

That's actually precisely what you're saying. You have no salient point; instead you have illusions and goalposts that are breaking land speed records.

I think we're done. If you decide to focus on points instead of obfuscating let me know. My respect for your opinion can't stand much more of this.

I did what you wanted and you found arbitrary reasons to dismiss it ... we've been "done" for a long time.

Conservatives do *this* and liberals don't!
Oh, here's a liberal doing that.
No, that doesn't count because [nonsensical reason] and you know it!
I mean it's fascinating the depths a partisan will travel to maintain delusions.
