I acknowledged the error and corrected it. There was nothing sly about the correction. It was made with a big EDIT in front of it.

Correcting and admitting are two different things.


Round and round we go.

Here is what you are doing:

Will you admit you were wrong?
I corrected my error.
Correcting an error is not a public admission you were wrong.
I will not do such unless you do things for me.
So you will not admit you were wrong?
I corrected my error.
Correcting an error is not a public admission you were wrong.

I do not know what you want from me, I corrected my error.

Sure I am, but I'm not a "Conservative" so why would I attack that?

Ummmm....There are those that would disagree with that... ;)

I'm pretty sure I have on multiple occasions made posts talking shit on idiots for the War on Drugs. I support the legalization of all drugs to be OTC.

I wasn't commenting on the opinion, just the extra baggage that accompanied it. Made it a bit confusing telling where your feet were standing....

Ah, well they can disagree with me all they want. If anything I probably lean more towards being an anarchist, but I'm not stupid enough to think there shouldn't be at least some system for protecting against abuse besides "the strongest survive". I just happen to believe there is no huge need for massive governments any longer, the internet is to big and social media to wide spread. When something like 70% of the worlds population is on the internet by 2020 and we can spread information/news so quickly why do we need huge organizations like governments to "enforce the peace". We can just shame and shun across the world to everyone. That imo will handle most issues.

Yes they are.

I find it very telling that you refuse to admit when you are wrong. You also lie and claim you are not fixed on it while continuing to post over and over and over again.

Incorrect.

What, exactly, am I fixated on and what claims have I made about any fixations I have?

You both still refuse to admit you are wrong AND are still fixed enough to continue to post about it. :D

I think arguing abortion is a waste of time. I look at abortion as greed. If a person is willing to kill to get what they want that is the highest form of greed.

I tried to ignore him but he like a bad case of clap that just keeps coming back. :(

I'm an Intolerant Liberal that put him on ignore ages ago. Everytime I see one of his Posts quoted I feel vindicated for my Intolerance.

This is just getting confusing. I demand that Eskimospy share his time traveling secrets with the rest of us. (Though I did laugh out loud at his response.)

Most of the responses (including one of mine) are wishes that one's preferred (or less un-preferred) party actually do what it professes, or do it to a greater extent. Perhaps a better question* would be with what specific policies of "your side" are you against? Answering that you don't like how Democrats knuckle under to Republicans (or vice versa) is akin to answering the old resume question "What's your greatest weakness?" with "I'm too much of a perfectionist about my work".

* Or at least a more precise question; I don't fail to note that Zsdersw actually did this in the OP, even though most others didn't.

the point of hate crimes is to try to have a chilling effect on groups who share the same criminal mindset to target certain groups
as opposed to single individuals who are not really propped up by the behavior of others, but instead are just dangerous in general

My weak input as a fiscal conservative and social moderate, liberal leaning.

Dems are pussies who have no spine and can be ridiculous, but they're not bat shit crazy like the Repubs. As much as I may disagree with certain policies of the left or the way they go about things, they don't even come close to the lunacy of the right.

edit; cybrsage is the first person to have seen my ignore list, followed by 3 or 4 other crazies in P&N. Feel honored that you're the first troll to really make me want to use it. If I enter a thread and there are a buncha ignored posts in a row I just leave it because it's pretty much spoiled/ruined by people who don't know to ignore him.

You mean when Wall Street damn near killed off the Financial system of the world?
