Thanks for following through with this.
I think the difference in our interpretations was the difference in that
"set of people".
I read Bruce's statement as follows:
"Funny how all the names you named are conservatives. So are we to assume
that conservatives are monsters, and liberals are not?"
i read the "none of your so called liberals" as meaning no liberal. none
of.
and bear in mind, as I've stated, history plays heavily into my
interpretation. And it's really not fair (or accurate) to suggest or imply
that it's only with one person. I've felt like there has been a constant
and ong
laziness. which is a curse.
so "none of your so called liberals" and "pet conservative".
What was the "set" of people you read those as?

Yeah, my excitement got ahead of my reading and comprehension.
I thought you were taking the sentence

Before you start accusing me of twisting somebody's words, please make sure

You cut out a word there.
Why did you do that? Was that on purpose?
It completely changes the meaning of the statement.
He typed "How many of your pet conservatives advocated the same?"
You typed "How many of you conservatives advocated the same?"
Those are 2 completely different statements.
Well played Scott.

surely that would depend on whether or not they were tree-hugging monsters.

No, Sarge, all *social conservatives* are monsters. If only due to
their wide stance.

them best.

Really? Well said?
Where in any of the previous statements has _anything_ even remotely like
that been said?
It is these "all or nothing" reactions that just have to stop. Have to. They
are the real and main problem that America has today.

Check again.
Clinton created rendition, the dems voted for wiretaps and were on the
panels that initially approved it. Handouts to the rich? Have you not
been following the banking crisis?

The monster years
Last night wasn't just a victory for tolerance; it wasn't just a
mandate for progressive change; it was also, I hope, the end of the
monster years.
What I mean by that is that for the past 14 years America's political
life has been largely dominated by, well, monsters. Monsters
