Every obnoxious post by him discredits his "side" immeasurably.

The Mods have some sort of "don't want to push him over the edge" kid glove treatment for his garbage spew posts. ![]()
to the best of my knowledge, you do NOT have access to the various moderator mail boxes...
therefore you do NOT have access to mod alerts...
and furthermore, you do NOT have the faintest glimmer of proof to back up your (rather ludicrous) statement!
if YOU have a problem with ANY post in this (or any other) forum, please feel frre to drop a line....

general mod alert/offensive post
.
given some of the responses from mods, it is clear (at least to myself and Evie) that she is correct
Nothing of the kind was mentioned! Wake up call for you, set aside your personal feelings for the members here!!!! And please, no snide comments are needed from you to me! I already know how you feel about me!
As far as Rob, who next will it be to pick on if he desides to go? I also do not like many of his comments and post, and especially being critical of my Government and a President whom I support. However, we are still supposedly a Democracy with freedom of speech or we can treat him like Senator McCarthy(sp) treated people in the early 50's, who early on I supported back then.
When he violates the TOS, then a email to the Mods is in order. Like has been mentioned....tune him out of your clicking to read...I have on occasion.
JR
I believe it is up to the mods to ban/kick out any member and Rob hasn't said anything that makes him a candidate for that AFAIK.
This is a forum and all opinions (except those that violate the law) are or should be accepted.
another case of a bad apple ruining the barrel (empty barrel as it was)
You don't have to agree with a post...but you will have to 'argue' that difference with respect for the other person's opinion.
It must be kept in mind that ''facts'' are often gleaned from different sources, whether main-stream, non-mainstream, blogs, web sites, foreign in origination, etc. All of these can present facts, but the spin and the selection of aspects of a story, although true, can be biased.
We may all trust those that fit our views more, but we also have to realize that there are different points of view while presenting facts. As said before, the opposite view can be posted without insulting remarks about the messenger. The ideal is the ''counter to an argument by using a better argument'', not attacking the messenger.
but that messenger does nothing but dump boatloads of poo each time
his original posts are commonly vitriolic and insulting. I'm sorry, but I am proud of my country, and his attacks go well beyond criticism of policy decisions. I take insults to my nation personally. If I were to use the same language he uses in describing our President towards another SE member, I would be considered in violation of the TOS.
Also, attempts of mine to use reason to argue, as you suggest, are often met by simple replies that accuse me of being a mindless "FauxNews" devotee, even when I hardly watch it and rarely cite it in my posts. Rather than debating my points, he dismisses them because they are inconvenient.
He is a destructive force on this board, and as such, should be silenced.
needs to grow up and play like an adult. Perhaps he didn't have enough sandbox time as a child
the President is not the nation, DR (and Don). I also find it interesting that those who complain about attacks on the current President being insulting to the nation had no problem whatsoever in making even more vitriolic accusations (including personal murder) against the previous President, who was of the other party.
BTW, as I've said before, I think one of the flaws in our system is that we don't have a separate ceremonial, non-political leader. The existence of the Queen of England, the Governor General of Canada, and the President of France eliminate the claims that political attacks on Blair, Harper, or de Villepin are traitorous to the country.

in the US. However, we fought a revolution to avoid that situation. I'm surprised that you, like Rob, want us back in the fold as an English possession.

The French Presidency is an elected position, as is the case in many other nations with separate ceremonial and political leaders.
