The cellar has been slightly to the left since the very first day I strolled in. It has just become tiresome though. Too many playing the martyr. Too many who cry racism, sexism, or classism about for anyone who disagrees with current policies. I know there are some guys who are far right who aren't doing any better so this isn't just one sided.

The defense rests, though I know the prosecution won't.

What more validation could you ever ask for, a thumbs up from merc? ;)

No, I think it has nothing to do with moderating...you are a human dwellar first, moderator second

I certainly dont get the need for "cunt" references that fly around here when a few posters feel challenged. I think it is offensive and childish.'

A double standard? You got that right!

And so I can understand, what is a moderator supposed to do around here anyway?

In other moderated political forums in which I have participated, the name-calling and character assassination or a series of inane pictorial displays would be called out by the mods for what they are.

Could you explain the necessity for your series of 10 inane partisan pics?

How does that contribute to a constructive adult discussion...or the "nazis" and/or "cunts" and "whores" references?

You dont think that is childish?

Because they are funny as hell? Does it bother you that people make fun of your hero's? :lol: I don't know, can you explain your sniveling? probably not.

Oh calm down, cunt.

pssst: is it worse to be a martyr or a cunt? I want to make sure I choose the road least travelled. Those seem to be the choices. :rolleyes:

I would suggest it is only funny to those insecure in their own ability to carry on an adult discussion.

I think more people are laughing at you than with you.

Nothing you say bothers me...at least no more than a petulant child is bothersome.

But, hey, what ever turns you on, dude.

merc, through it all, sometimes you make me smile. ;) (Well, except for the other parts like directly above)

But this, yeah:

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
