> [@](#): > > it is clear that your only real problem with him is that he’s openly conservative. His contributions may be small, but I doubt you’d care if he agreed with your political views. Can I use this to improve my garden? Small? He has contributed _nothing_ but namecalling to every thread he has interrupted. His opinions have generally been erroneous, he has used terms incorrectly, and he has provided not one fact or logical construction to support his rants. I think pitting him is silly–it just validates his existence–but this defense of him is nearly as pointless and content free as his posts. ---

You’re certainly right about his contributions being small, **Clint in Wichita**. I particularly like: > [@](#): > > The democrat party should be called the American Communist party if they had any guts to call themselves what they are. Sounds like a reasonable guy to me. ---

Expect to see more right-wing nutjobs come out of the woodwork, kids – with the good ship USS Dubya going down like a drunken whore(\*), they’ve got to redouble their efforts to beat back all us “lefties” and “commies” to try and save George’s ass. Not that their actions will make any difference, but it’s either this or admit that their candidate has been shafting the entire nation… (\* = and boy, aren’t we mixing our metaphors today? 😉 ) ---

Well, he’s not exactly a _new_ jerkoff, just a fortunately silent one. [Here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=122215&highlight=monty22001)’s the last time he was pitted. Twice in less than 25 posts. Such talent. ---

Now, if you believe this does not go beyond the realm of simply being “openly conservative”, well, that’s your business. But it’s quite clear to me that the OP was bashing **monty2\_2001** for being a fucking moron, not for being conservative. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Neurotik \* > \*\*I thought it was “died in the wool.” \*\* Since there seems to be a zeitgeist pertaining to this error, see [here](http://www.word-detective.com/061300.html) : > [@](#): > > “Dyed in the wool,” of course, means “thoroughgoing, complete and unchangeable,” usually in the context of political or other opinions. For instance, a “dyed in the wool” Yankees fan (a species of which I am a fair example) would not dream of changing his allegiance to another team, even if he were, for some mysterious reason, required to move from New York City to rural Ohio. And no amount of Ohio State Buckeye propaganda could induce a dyed in the wool football non-fan (me again) to waste time watching a boring, pointless football game. > In its original literal sense, “dyed in the wool” refers to the process of dying sheep wool in its “raw” state, before it is spun into thread or yarn. The color of such “dyed in the wool” fabric tends to be more consistent and permanent than that of fabric dyed in later stages of the cloth-making process. > “Dyed in the wool” first appeared in this literal sense in the late 16th century, and within a few years “dyed in the wool” was being used in its modern figurative sense to describe someone who can be counted on to stick to his or her guns. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Clint in Wichita \* > **After looking at every one of his posts in the threads provided in the link, it is clear that your only real problem with him is that he’s openly conservative.** I think the problem here is really one of semantics. Since both you and **monty2\_2001** belong to the Ignorant Moron school of conservatism, I think it’s a mistake to refer to either of your views as “conservative” per se, as that would imply some commonality with the many non-IM conservative viewpoints. But if you replace the word “conservative” in your first sentence with “ignorant moron conservative”, then I think we’re definitely in agreement. ---
