Your comment was in specific response to this: > [@Starving Artist - we remember you](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/starving-artist-we-remember-you/706204/5): > > While many of the conservatives on this board can’t quite bring themselves to actually criticize or disown him, it’s rare that one of them, especially among the thoughtful, will support him or rely on him in a debate. That should tell you something. It’s so like you (and Starving Artist, actually) to pick a single word out of the context and go all tunnel-vision on it. You don’t have to “disown” Starving Artist or anyone else, but you are demanding that the people you call “board liberals” criticize each other, no? Since you don’t feel compelled to do this for your fellow conservatives (to no apparent ill-effect), it makes you at minimum a hypocrite but I’m happy to just call you a whiner who calls foul after he’s lost. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-bricker-for-admitting-he-plans-to-make-posts-that-are-clearly-and-utterly-unreasonable/706080)._
