And that was my point when I announced I had had enough and was going nasty. The problem was so many (ie you) condoned the nastiness by remaining quiet. Hitler discovered nastiness works. As long as he made German politics nasty, the majority went silent. Left politics (and government) to be controlled only by extremists.

That is also the political agenda of Limbaugh and Beck. Make things nasty so that centrist and moderate politician lose their primary supporters (due to disgust as being expressed by you).

Because so many (ie a large number of posters in this thread) choose to go quiet (ie leave), then they encouraged nasty extremists to be even nastier.

But then I am only repeating what I posted previously. Do not consider yourself innocent. Silence is how you condone the nastiness.

I think there is some sort of law about this type of brilliant argument.

So, you want those you fling poo at to fling it back.

That may be how you get your rocks off, but I have better things to do with my time.
