I've never made that claim. As fair as I can be, yes, but I wouldn't claim "balanced." I have my biases, just like everyone else. , she would be able to > produce at least one post (other than the recent one, which > can arguably be attributed to Curtis shaming her into making > it) No, it can't, since I made it before I saw Curtis's despicable post. in which she criticized either Nabby or Jim for their > religion-bashing.

Barry means that when he did searches on these terms, he turned up those numbers of hits. But as he knows, those numbers don't represent the numbers of original posts, since they include all the replies that quote the originals. Plus which, since he didn't look at all those posts, he has no way of knowing whether they all involved bashing. > Surely, given her oh-so-evolved sensibilities about "fairness," > she can come up with a few posts she's made suggesting that > this might be a "little off." Naaah. The viciousness quotient is way too low compared to that of Barry's and Vaj's (and now Curtis's) bashing of TMers. Nobody, including Barry and Vaj and Curtis, takes them seriously--except when they perceive an opportunity to use them to bash TMers. What Barry and Curtis are trying to put over is known as "false equivalence." The exception is Nabby's recent post, which was uncharacteristically vicious for Nabby. He was rather severely chastised for it by me, and he ultimately deleted it.
