I did not defend or respond to the post in question.

My posts here speak for themselves. Unlike Winthrop, who sneaks around in his long black dress and grey wig waving his 1932 copy of Emily Post's Etiquette, I come here to post about issues
and to learn from the many bright posters who are also here to discuss political issues.
Your right they do speak for themselves. I don't think I mentioned you did I? As much as we might disagree, I never thought of you as a vindictive person, who would go out of your way to be a asshole, like me.

I do not agree with every post that any poster here makes. I do not come here and say, "I tattled on your friend and the Administrator reprimanded her and you are guilty by association."
I am sure the posters here whose opinions I value can see that.

One is only responsible for a post made by another if one constantly defends and apologizes for posters who are passive-aggressive racists. At the other
board, jdanton is constantly crucified by everyone
but you and Rocker and Kanadesage -- which puts
the lie to your claim that I am a Big Meanie.
I dunno what happened, obviously I didn't log in for about 2 weeks.

Ok first off, who are you to call anyone racist? That is a term you people use when you don't like someone. It's thrown around very carelessly and has officially lost its power to wow anyone.
Forgive me, but I have trouble branding a person a "racist" based on a paragraph on a message board.

It's standard practice. The Cultural Revolution had the Gang of Four.
PoliGroove has the Gang of Three

Rigged, you made the mistake of quoting and responding to me. That is
unforgivable in LeeLeeLand.

You see, she has me on "ignore" so she is not forced against her will
to read what I write. But when someone quotes me she must read it,
she cannot help herself. Then she has tantrums.

Another problem is that I am a "stalker" because I respond to the Gang
of Three's posts and correct their many misrepresentations and often
outright lies. However they can chase other posters all over the board
dropping epithets such as "racist" and they are not stalkers.
See the difference?

Neither do I.

I do not have sufficient a college degree that deals with such a
psychological aberration. Perhaps the wRecK has one.

We both know you are Cleopatra, and that you are not some young law student.

I have never called anyone here a racist based on a paragraph on a message board, "You people" is an interesting choice of words.

But, hey, congrats on making one friend here. That is great.

Correction: you have made two friends here, but
good luck with that doctordog alias.
