If it's just a reaction to your perceived "jerkiness" in my previous post, then I guess I can get that. Otherwise, I'm a bit mystified. ???

Really. You really want me to quote the things you said above. I have to quote what you just said, and explain to you where you belittled us. Really. </sethandamy> Ok, I'll play.

Here. You claim that this is "snarky" but not "comedic", and that it was not supposed to be "lofty" but "rhetorical". Snarky and rhetorical, which means that you were jabbing at us in a way that is supposed to not solicit a response (which is why I'm calling you out for it). If your snark was not meant to be funny, what response did you want? Oh, right, no response at all, just a way to insult us without actually facing any music.

BTW, you can't be snarky and say that you didn't say that "Obama love was wrong or bad". That's what being snarky is.

I posted plenty in the past to say how much I loved Obama. I'm not afraid to face that. What gets me is that you are saying that the Obama love-fest is proof that we can't see things objectively at all. Hell, there are some here who can't, I can agree with that. But to say that all of us who supported Obama wholeheartedly in the campaign are unable to talk about him without referring to him as the messiah?

I am not a fan of everything the man has done (and hasn't done) as President. In fact some things have made me very angry. He's definitely not my messiah. Yes, I'm still a fan; yes, I still think he's a million times better than Bush; yes, I would vote for him again. But for you to speak of us with the broad brush of "they ALL feel like this ALL the time and the way they have acted in the past is PROOF" is a faulty opinion at best and a pretty serious insult at worst.

I am sick and tired of partisan bullsh.t in this f'cked up world, and I might come off as a raggy nag for it, but I am especially sick of seeing this sh.t on my favorite place on the internet. I don't care what side it comes from or how close I am to you, I am going to call you on your sh.t when you start breaking out the paint roller.

That's all.
