Thus my claim that conservatives in general are more polite and well-mannered than liberals, election season or no. You “can guarantee” this _how_, again? I offer the booing crowds seen every night on TV and you offer an opinion based on what comes out of your fevered imagination, apparently. Civility has become scarce as an Ethiopian chicken in this country, and the lack thereof is not the exclusive domain of any political spectrum. To state otherwise, based only on your uninformed and unsupported opinion, only makes you look foolish. ---

Ya, where I live, those are the people who vote for “family values” and are in favor of the war in Iraq. They’re called “cannon fodder” by those with college degrees, aka the “liberal elite”. ---

Liberals may be crass but at least they’re not religiously oppressive racist scum bags. Nor are most conservatives. Need I point out that you say maybe a few dozen or a few hundred, but there are many, many millions of conservatives out there who did not act like that? ---

Do you want me to try to find links? Nope, actually a moron like me just doesn’t fucking care about that–oddly enough, you and your whiny snivelling take up an infinitesimal amount of my attention–just enough to take the time to craft a few words to express what a useless, squeaky, sobbing, knee scraped little bitch you are and how sandy I suspect your vagina is the majority of the time. Hint: think [“Gobi desert.”](http://www.meridianphotographicgallery.com/FW-GOBIDESERT/GOBIDESERTPHOTOS/G02%20Gobi%20Desert%20Sand%20Dunes.jpg) Guess what, you titty sucking widdoe baby, I flatly do not care if somebody else called you a liar FIRSTEST–what, you think I’m gonna waste MY time giving a shit about your pathetic little tantrums? Shit, I refused to waste time on that kind of juvenility when it was my own kids doing it (and they had the excuse of actually BEING two years old,) so the percentage chance of my wasting even a picosecond on yours is measurable only with the very finest of precision scientific instruments, such as an [electron microscope.](http://science.kukuchew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/transmissionelectronmicroscope-tem.jpg) Which, now that I think on it, you should consider inserting firmly into your anal cavity, with knobs on. That oughta keep you busy and out of the way of the grownups, who are talking right now. Run along, now, do… Oh yes, and when it comes time for you to compose your answer to this post–it’s spelled “doodyhead.” Never say I never did anything for you. ---

Okay, I’m gonna back out of here now because this has become a major hijack (I blame **askeptic** for starting it and **Rubystreak** for kicking it up a notch ;)) but I’ll admit I played along. My apologies to the OP. **Chefguy** - Do you not understand opinion? Observation? Perspective based on life experience? These are not assertions; they are observations and opinion stated as food for thought for those whose political philosophies have not yet jelled. Pretty much like most of what I post. If you want to fight 'em with proof of your own, jump right in. I don’t think you’ll have much luck though, or you’d be doing so already…and that goes for most of your compatriots as well. And now, I’m out (at least insofar as non-OP related comments goes). ---
