I'm what would probably be called an "extreme conservative" but it takes quite a bit to make me want to call someone else a name on the internet, especially the kind of talk that would get you a punch in the nose in real life.<BR/><BR/>I remember when I was a kid, they used to show us a cartoon in school that featured Goofy. He was a very nice fellow, until he got behind the wheel of his car, and then he became a real jerk. <BR/>And that was before someone coined the phrase "road rage."<BR/><BR/>Someone needs to make a cartoon showing Goofy at the keyboard.<BR/><BR/>Also, I can attest to the intelligence of our humble blogger.

I have to say that this cycle is slightly worse then previous ones in terms of sheer nastiness from the left mostly. If this breaks your heart, well prepare for even worse over the next 4 years as we descend into outright fascism.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11205752419540502278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7925724730500675366.post-89650333945945375442008-10-21T08:46:00.000-07:002008-10-21T08:46:00.000-07:00Did you actually read my comment?

My one and only comment on Dooce's blog, in response to comment after comment accusing conservatives (and women in particular) who support McCain/Palin of being just plain idiotic was this:<BR/><BR/><I>I have a uterus and a brain. And I'm voting for McCain/Palin.</I><BR/><BR/>If you'd like to characterize that as negative/snarky, feel free. However, you might want to compare it to the vast majority of comments left by both sides of the aisle first. <BR/><BR/>Had I said something along the lines of "Unlike you, I have a brain," I would understand you considering it negative. I was simply countering accusations that all conservatives must be idiots.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15738767958292778122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7925724730500675366.post-53137989675911662922008-10-21T08:17:00.000-07:002008-10-21T08:17:00.000-07:00Aren't you among those leaving negative/snarky com...Aren't you among those leaving negative/snarky comments?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7925724730500675366.post-11105985535496406892008-10-20T13:46:00.000-07:002008-10-20T13:46:00.000-07:00Oh, honey, you might be very surprised to learn th...Oh, honey, you might be very surprised to learn that I don't agree with every single position my party espouses. The Terry Schiavo issue being one of them. Shall I assume that you are implying that my brain isn't working properly because of my political views? I'll alert Mensa that I should be taken off the membership list and resign my role as editor of Southern Idaho Mensa's newsletter. <BR/><BR/>BTW, that's exactly the kind of insult I was talking about in my post. I'm going to assume that you, too, want what's best for America - even though you're clearly not voting the same way I am. I'd appreciate it if you would return the favor.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15738767958292778122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7925724730500675366.post-1138674558739017012008-10-20T13:23:00.000-07:002008-10-20T13:23:00.000-07:00I also saw your comment on Dooce and wanted to jus...I also saw your comment on Dooce and wanted to just say that we all have brains, but some work better than others.
