“…only an idiot or a partisan nutjob would come to such a conclusion as this.”

and

“Give me break. Are you that desperate to sling mud?”

This is awesome!

Nicely done!”

Peas in a pod. Ok, it’s been fun…

Yet when my full reply is read in conjunction with truthteller’s full comments only an idiot or a partisan nutjob would come to such a conclusion as this.

“You contradicted yourself in the same sentence. When you favour the GOP over the DNC you most certainly are carrying a torch for the GOP. If anyone is a partisan nutjob its you.”

Give me break. Are you that desperate to sling mud?

Nicely done!

And this is what I actually said:
“I stand by my previous post and unless you have something of your own to contribute I will no longer waste my time responding to you.”

This is a perfect illustration of the way you distort others posts to support your straw man arguments.

“And you are a partisan nutjob.”
Nice, except my posts have been directed at you and your illogical distortions, not at defending or supporting any party, since I belong to no party, and that would be kinda essential in order to be a partisan.

Truth teller said “Where are the praises on the Democrats and all the good work they try to do for the GLBT community?” and you replied “Are you asking Jim & Timothy to act as sycophants for the DNC?”

Your subsequent statement that BTB has praised Democrats doesn’t change the fact that you said it would be sychophantic if when Truthteller suggested they do so.

John said “Now as far as me being a “Republican partisan”, I make no secret of favoring the GOP over the DNC on many issues except for gay rights but carry no torch for the party.”.

You contradicted yourself in the same sentence. When you favour the GOP over the DNC you most certainly are carrying a torch for the GOP. If anyone is a partisan nutjob its you.

Nope, not what I said at all. I said that both Jim & Timothy have priased Democrats when they believed it was warranted and criticized them for the same reason. Ditto with the Republicans. Yet that’s not what was demanded as Timothy was taken to task for apparently straying over some arbitrary line by offering even the small praise for some Republicans in this post. Some commentors went nuts accusing BRB of being a “stealth GOP site” which is positively ridiculous. Now as far as me being a “Republican partisan”, I make no secret of favoring the GOP over the DNC on many issues except for gay rights but carry no torch for the party. Hence why I vote for the best person I’m stuck with choosing on the ballot regardless of party affliation and a couple of times when none of the choices are palatable have either skipped the election or wrote in other names. Now if the GOP were ever to jettison the social cons, actually BE the party of small government it claims to be and was less trigger-happy on the international stage than yes, I would indeed join that party. I don’t expect all of this to happen for quite awhile but perhaps someday when I’m very old and gray…

And you are a partisan nutjob. I never said that the GOP was supportive of gay rights in the past or the present. Some individual Republicans are, including a sizeable majority of GOP voters favoring repeal of DADT, yet clearly the party machine isn’t. Hence one of the reasons why I am not a Republican. The ideals toward personal liberty which Goldwater came to believe included gays is something the GOP in the future will rediscover and champion or will fade away into political irrelevancy. This isn’t without precedence in American politics and not at all “delusional”. Recall the transformation of the Democrat Party, the party of slavery and segregation, over the past few decades. Amusingly enough both parties have swapped positions as standing for states rights/small government or strong central government.

Btw, I thought you said that you were done posting on this?
