Also, I hope everyone who knows or has contact with Jim gets to see this post and see what kind of a person he really is. Everyone except his kids that is. They don't need to see this side of him.

Hi again, Mr. President! That clip was from March 20, after you said the ship would be in New York harbor by last week. The ship was not in New York last week -- which is what I said on my show.

You were wrong about it.

No hard feelings. Everyone's glad it's there now. But...you really have been terrible about communicating true, factual information to the public in this crisis. Please let the experts and scientists speak instead.

And please nationalize the supply chain for critical medical supplies. Thanks for watching, Mr. President.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Lets Go Darwin

After a similarly vile post I once asked Jim something like would he be proud if his wife saw the post and he replied with something like she would agree with him.

My wife has great disdain for Maddow, for the same exact reason she feels the same way about Hannity.. Not sure why you care to know that, but when someone goes on TV every night and insults the beliefs you hold most dear (not just disagrees with them which is fine, but attacks those who hold them), I'm not sure what you expect. Maybe a better person than I am would feel sorry for Maddow nd Hannity, I don't. They're both thoughtless and they both hate everyone who disagrees with them.

Again, we see your contempt for vile language is very politically specific.

Really? Where is your post calling Hannity a half-beast and making fun of his sexuality?
Kettle, Pot, Black.

I'm not sure on what basis I'd call Hannity a half-beast. As far as I know, Hannity doesn't go out of his way to shove his sexuality in the face of his viewers. Maddow does, and does it for the purposes of showing that anyone who disagrees with her choices, Is necessarily a bigot. As opposed to, say, Trump, who has gone out of his way to shove his sexuality in my face, and I've called him a morally bankrupt reptile for doing so, a hundred times. Where's the hypocrisy, exactly?

Bryan, I like engaging you, you're fair. But when Pete claims my mother is a truck stop prostitute and Paul says very explicitly that he doesn't care what Pete said, I can say with 100% accuracy that Pauls outrage is selective, which necessarily means it's fake.

I just think you are a angry petty person. Why else point out what she said? I don't feel the need to point out the things Hannity said.

You pretty much insult everyone here who disagrees with you. You constantly insult liberals.

Make any comment you want, I won't post again in this thread.

I know you think that. You're entitled to your opinions.

In my experience when people (1) can't respond logically to what you're saying, but (2) aren't adult enough to admit you have a point, they resort instead to lobbing baseless insults. From where I sit, liberals do that a lot. They are often forced to doing so, because (again in my opinion) so many of their ideas are easily shredded by empirical results (their entire economic platform), common sense (not understanding that if you pay teenage girls to have babies, more of them will have babies), or basic decency (late=term abortions, judging people by skin color and gender).

Paul, let's re-cap...

Paul: Jim, it's wrong to use hateful language in a political forum.

Jim: Paul, Pete said my mother performs sex acts at a truck stop to support her drug habit.

Paul: I don't care what he said. But I'm holding you to a standard that I will never hold Pete to.

Jim: That seems inconsistent.

Paul: Why are you so angry?

Yup, you sure showed me.

"You pretty much insult everyone here who disagrees with you.'

Nope. I've never come close to being hateful to Bryan. Because he has never done anything remotely close to deserving it.

I have had very spirited disagreements with Scott and Detbuch and TDF and John R. But always respectful.

When someone resorts to ugliness, I will often respond in kind. I don't start off that way.

I've never seen Pete have a respectful disagreement with any conservative on any topic, but you never chastise him. You only care when conservatives do it.
