		<description>Hilary has- by FAR- stepped over the line as far as running a clean campaign is concerned. Bill Clinton&#039;s despicable remarks in South Carolina and just about every racist insinuation since has proven beyond any doubt that she&#039;ll say anything she can to win. Of all things to use against him, race is the most pathetic - it goes against everything the Democratic party stands for. Also, calling Obama an &quot;elitist&quot; is beyond the pale for a woman who made over 100 million dollars last year and who&#039;s only hope of actually winning the nomination is to be elected by an elite group of superdelegates. Wake up Clinton supporters- she&#039;s a power hungry bottom feeder.</description>

		<description>upright left says: &lt;em&gt; I simply pointed out that it was acceptable until he went against the prevailing position here. Then his attacks were turned on those folks who had no problem with his methods previously.&lt;/em&gt;

there are many positions here - &quot;prevailing&quot; sounds too structured or something... 
but i can see your point...

however, what i remember about those previous &quot;methods&quot;, they were directed at actual trolls... and, while over the top at times, mostly deserved... 

the personal, ugly and twisted attack on obama supporters is unjustified...
not a problem with disagreement, just be reasonable... and real...

katy Says:

and, upright, you are mistaken… rhf attacked posters personally for their opinions about hillary’s rovian tactics and lies and spin… the attacks were unprovoked, uncalled for and out of bounds…

Katy, I don&#039;t doubt any of that.  I&#039;m well aware of how hateful he can be.  I simply pointed out that it was acceptable until he went against the prevailing position here.  Then his attacks were turned on those folks who had no problem with his methods previously.  Additionally, though the attacks against him weren&#039;t as hateful, they were certainly evident as the split grew between the Clinton people and the Obama people.  It was a short trip from earlier statements that all the Dem candidates were excellent to almost hatred of Clinton on this site.  I don&#039;t have much confidence in any of the candidates and expect to vote for Obama, if he wins the nomination, only because he will get us out of Iraq sooner and it might help race relations in this country.  I simply find it ironic that someone who mirrors the views of the majority here is now an outsider and it&#039;s only partially his fault.</description>

		<description>Well, I will try a third time.  And a fourth time.  I provided two links which showed two different watchdog groups who follow the media and follow sexism and both have written up Keith from since 2006.  But for whatever reason my links are not being posted and are awaiting moderation.  So you all will have to labor on in ignorance in this echo chamber because someone is blocking facts here.</description>

		<description>Olbermann, as a decent person, has the class to admit he made a mistake.  Can you imagine anyone from FauxNews having the integrity to ever do that?

Considering all the non-stop mistakes, insults, character assassination, and hate speech that Faux indulges in, they should be in a constant state of apologizing.

FoxNews is the most un-American thing happening in this country today.  What a pathetic tragedy that such filth is allowed on the airways.</description>

		<description>His rants and vile comments were never an issue until the Clinton/Obama split occurred here. Now that he disagrees with the majority here, suddenly his methods are unacceptable. Hypocrisy, bud.

______________

YOUR hypocrisy, &quot;Bud&quot;... ;-D!

His rants and vile comments have TOO been an issue here before, &quot;Bud&quot;.

Clearly, you were not present at the times more than one poster asked him to tone it down.  I have had discussions more than once about him, or her, as the case may be.  Because you were not invited to those discussions doesn&#039;t mean they didn&#039;t happen, &quot;Bud&quot;.

Again, you OBVIOUSLY didn&#039;t see the comments RHF made a couple of nights ago that Merlin found so distasteful, nor do you care what the truth is.

NO ONE turned on RHF.  RHF has grown increasingly nasty the last few weeks and really gone over the top of late.  IF you had been here and paying attention like you pretend you&#039;ve been, you&#039;d know that.

Hypocrisy?  You&#039;re the walking embodiment of it, &quot;Bud&quot;...</description>

The Republic of Stupidity Says: 


Sorry, but the turn began way before that. And the nastiness was there on both sides as the majority of the regulars became more anti-Clinton.

As usual, you either a) have no idea what you’re talking about, or b) willfully distort the situation to make a false point.

I go for c) a combination of the 2, myself.

RHF has always been considered “on the edge” by more than a few of us. If you read the threads here as often as you pretend you do, and were really interested in being honest, you’d confirm that. 

“The turn began”???????? WTF????????

No one ever turned on RHF. That particular poster has grown increasingly strident the last few weeks, calling anyone who supports Obama a “Hopium” addict… very silly, IMO. Again, the comments Merlin referred to were quite nasty, and given the tenor of your response, it is clear you didn’t see them.

Just ONCE… it’d be nice if you actually knew what you were talking about, or had a REAL point to make. Just… Once!!!!!!!!!
__________

As usual, bud, you assume that since you miss the point or don&#039;t like it, no point was made.  The original point that I made was that RHF was ok with some here &quot;when he was on our side.&quot;  That includes the subject of his recent attacks.  Regulars gradually began attacking him as the arguments over Clinton/Obama progressed.  His rants and vile comments were never an issue until the Clinton/Obama split occurred here.  Now that he disagrees with the majority here, suddenly his methods are unacceptable.  Hypocrisy, bud.

The Republic of Stupidity Says: 
downright wrong Says:

Since the majority here went with Obama, suddenly Clinton supporters are trolls.
______________

As usual, you take some thin little edge and twist it around until it appears you can claim the moral high ground and justify condescending to everyone here.

RHF got incredibly nasty the other night to some posters here. Really, really vile. If you didn’t see the actual comments, you don’t know what you’re talking about. But hey, when would that be something new?
____________

And you are suggesting that&#039;s the first time any of the regulars turned on him?  Sorry, but the turn began way before that.  And the nastiness was there on both sides as the majority of the regulars became more anti-Clinton.

To have Merlin not approve of RHF&#039;s truly ugly comments somehow means that &quot;suddenly Clinton supporters are trolls&quot;?  Only in your mind would this be true.

Is there any silly twist or turn you won&#039;t engage in in another desperate attempt to look superior?  Prolly not.</description>

		<description>Merlin Says: 
RHF is a troll totally bound up with hate. I suspect he really mourned when VV stopped posting some time ago, and his excuse for venting that anger disappeared.
__________

Apparently RHF was ok with some posters when he was &quot;on their side.&quot;  That was back when libs were posting that Dems never engage in dirty campaiging and all their candidates were stellar.  Since the majority here went with Obama, suddenly Clinton supporters are trolls.  Seems it&#039;s opposing the majority that makes one a troll despite claims to the contrary.

		<description>#37.... you should get a gold medal for such a leap in logic. 

To infer that Olbermann wants someone to kill Hillary Clinton is ridiculous and idiotic. Please explain your statement.</description>
