There's name calling and butchering going on here on mingle?

Oh my...

I have no ill will toward Dragoness or anyone else, in fact I have agreed with Dragoness once or twice, but however misguided her politics is (in my opinion) when she has been right on something she's been right and I will always acknowledge that. As for elected officials, I have very little respect for most of them. Much in the same way I call McCain McLame I will continue to call Obama; Hussein the obamanable simply because I do not like them. as folks on here who have a distaste for Fox News will continue to call it Faux news. I have thick skin and it doesn't bother since its only an opinion. I've made no bones about my absolute contempt for the left and that will not stop. As long as I do not attack anyone on here personally there is no harm no foul. I just wouldn't worry about this too much because I believe that politics aside we would probably all get along pretty good. I have suggested to the mods to do away with this and the religion threads to stop what you're talking about but they chose to leave them up. Just my .02 on the subject.

OBAMA RAWKS!

Obama is a good president.

I have been thinking a lot about this. I know I have a couple of times, and if I have offended anyone I am truly sorry.

I think we should all use proper names when talking about persons or businesses or organizations.

I have been giving a lot of thought to this and it really disrespects the people you are talking to. I am referring to things like Oblowme, Obummer, Obama Bin Laden, Pox News, Dippic, Chimpy, Tea Baggers, Tea Bagging etc. I think you get the picture.

You automatically lose the debate or discussion when you make comments like that and frankly sound like a third grader. I know I am guilty as well and have used the Obama Bin Laden one a couple times.

A lot of those comments are meant to degrade and insult and hurt members and it's just not right. We can disagree and do it civilly.

Again I am sorry to anyone I might have offended especially Dragoness, MSharmony, Kerry O, Atlantis and others.

For the good of the community lets all try to treat each other with more respect.

OBAMA RAWKS!

i know i am new here, but personally I think its educating to hear the slander as well as the good. I can appreciate playing devils advocate in order to create discussion and debate too. over the top or not, it seems to get people talking.

Obama is a good president.

How did I get to be the center of this. I am really not bothered at all by all the names used for Obama. It actually shows the mind of the name caller which doesn't harm me at all.

My politics are not even known on here. I play devils advocate many times and go to the extreme on others to make a point. People still don't know me.

I like to make others think. Sometimes you have to be extreme to make people look at the situation in a different light or see it from a different perspective.

And those who cannot do the above make me the target of their issues.

I too have crossed the line on these threads. I have apologized when someone has told me that I hurt their feelings. I get into trouble just like everyone else. I just don't pout about it. Or make a scene. No one knows when I get into trouble. It isn't anyone's business.

I think it is big of Lpdon to even post this thread.

Thou art forgiven. I know it's quite a bit harder to be civil on the webbernet, as we don't get the instant feedback (as we would in person). I've said things I regret too. I like to think I've grown through my debates with minglers. Have a fantabulous night, all!

Political correctness is for the birds.
