If we all felt the same about everything, it'd be pretty boring......

I also think it's valuable to hear how another person (who votes) in this country feels or looks at things. It gives insight.....afterall, their vote has as much power as yours, no matter how ridiculous, etc. you may think they are.....and perhaps one day, you may get them to look at things from another perspective.....

1st of all, I am in Denver and doing this on my phone, so it will be short. No one except the mods and Surfergirl know why she was banned. And it was NOT for just 'responding' to some one. The members don't know how many times anyone has been warned etc etc. They only know what someone tells them. If someone straight up calls someone a name, then let us know instead of continually posting about it in the thread and it will be taken care of. She is entitled to her opinions, short of calling people names, and her opinions are are all over this forum. But everyone else is also entitled to not like or agree with them and they have every right to post that, short of calling people names.

Now since no one reported any name calling in this thread, I'm off to try and find it before I go to the Molly Brown house and look for ghosts!

Actually I did report several people for name calling.

Seems like name calling to me ....

And yet anyone who tries to look at Obama's background is told that it is none of our business ?

I reported it also but forgot the button hardly ever works

SurferGirl · 07-06-2009, 01:24 PM

It's funny how the button always works for a certain few and not for others, just like the fact that I never had any warning when I was banned. Actually a certain moderator never even replied to my messages.
Also the fact that a certain member went on a rant for 2 threads about me and then I just started a thread and copied her post and where she quoted me and then used words that I never us. That was on ban without warning.
The other time after being called a racist and a hater and a bigot I asked one person that kept calling me a racist if she was racist because she didn't like Bush. If that is name calling there is no excuse for the others not getting banned for doing real name calling.

Seriously, how is someone supposed to think and look at it when for so long, you're a worthless POS if your teenager did what a lot of teenagers do? And now all of a sudden when its "one of theirs" now suddenly its "accepted"?

No, Im sorry but I dont buy the whole "family values platform" has suddenly changed and thats totally cool.

Jamie Lynn Spears
vs Bristol Palin's pregnacy comes fresh to my mind.

The mentality of replies like this is so exhausting to my brain, no comment, but this is acceptable in this persons mind on not picking on someone. OMG!

Ok, I feel better now. Off to Germany. Later all.

So saying it twice in 2 different post isnt name calling? I got warned for calling a person here a idiot. I even lost points. I actually apologized to the person. I wanted to scream at alot of things people have said here. I read alot of posts I disagree with and then I decide if any are worth it for me to reply to or not. When you get to the point of name calling, maybe its time to just take a break and come back later. If you include name calling in a post it just makes you look as stupid as the person your calling stupid.

Maybe because she judges liberals & dems as a group & her opinions are always the same hateful attacks on dems, liberals, Obama, Chicago Politicians, it's like Groundhog Day everyday on these threads & it's very hateful stuff. Palin is quitting/resigning & she's whining/crying because we're all loving it, boo frickin hoo, her party is falling apart & it's all of our faults.
Let's all have a pity party for Palin & SG.

Who didn't know this was coming next, you wouldn't haven't it any other way.
I was banned & I deserved it, I'd do it exactly the same & wouldn't change a thing, if I could do it over.
Geez.................

So why do you quote me as if I called her or anyone else a name?

I have NEVER said Obama's background was none of our business. I made the statement because people kept posting it was not our business as to why Palin Quit. You're smart enough to know why I posted what I did, so please don't try to make my words a tangled web.

Pepper, yes SG is intitled to her opinion as are the rest of us BUT, it's the way it's done that makes it an infraction or a banning.
