No, I'm ASKINGpeople join me in a more adult conversation as if we were face to face instead of launching personal attacks behind a monitor. Please show the quote where I've made a demand for anyone to do anything. Good luck.
"with one condition."
"Now if you would like this courtesy to be applied to you, if your are also CAPABLE of doing the same with me, all you have to do is just post one word.....YES."
"All you have to do is say YES and I will treat you as I'm sure you would like to be treated....otherwise, carry on as usual and I'll fight fire with fire."
" Stop trying to analyze and just accept my offer or simply ignore it."
Again, aren't you capable of just taking the high road instead of making the demand of playing by your rules? Is it possible for you to just do it instead of demanding that someone else agree to your conditions? You claim to want civil debate, yet you put a condition on it to get your way. Your offer is just bait. When no one agrees, you just shrug your shoulder and claim, well I tried. I actually play the same way you do, I just will not agree to a condition.

SS, I have yet to see a conservative here call out their own side on snark, or hate, or personal attacks.
Conservatives:
insert the usual "you liberals don't call out each other either" response here:
______________________________________________________________
And so it goes, as long as a liberal has done it, or not done it, conservatives will take their cue on how to post from them. Really.....who knew liberals had such power over conservative's posting?

Do not worry, archer, you do not have such power over anyone. But you have let us know that you are on a power kick. What a joke!

You do very well at "fill in the blanks"....... need any more help? Just call a liberal, that's what we do, help the clueless. No thanks necessary
Fill in the blank type of stuff is gradeschool, isn't it? You have not advanced past adolescence? We must be dealing with a bunch of school teachers here.

I offered my civility to those who wished to call a truce and wipe the slate clean. Since Arlen and I have not been assholes to each other (not yet anyway), I see no reason to get in the middle of a little "snark" between you and him.
I'm enjoying this little bout btw, it reminds me of watching a monkey and a hollwed out Nerf football...or even two bananas....

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Well lets see, at least I've had a go with several conservatives around here that you've gotten smacked around by a few times. I went after Viking for being too big of a Perry fan and putting down every other candidate for bs reasons. I went after your other friend TLGOPT about something I can remember but he might...thhink it was religious or a something. Recently had a nice bout with badger and even got a pm threat in return.
And I did something else that I've never seen one of you on the left do, I quickly gave my condemnation of some sort of threats that were sent to LJ in a PM. That may be a lot too you, but I guarantee you can't shoow me any examples of you calling out your buddies on anything...and I don't care anymore.
So when you say "you conservatives"...just remember that you don't, or shouldn't even presume to know what we all think or do. Sorry archer, you just don't have those skills...nor do I.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
Sorry Bill, but TLGOPT isn't a conservative, he's a troll (like RT)....not that those are mutually exclusive, but trolling gets it's own category in my book. Interesting that viking didn't get called on his behavior until he turned his venum on his fellow conservatives. Using your example, LJ and I have never been assholes to each other so why should I get into the middle of a little snark between you, or any other conservative, and her?.......ditto that for every other liberal here. I personally don't care if you or any other conservative poster condemns another conservative for behaving badly or not.......I believe we liberals do a fine job of pointing out bad behavior when it occurs.
BTW.....I don't look at personal attacks as being "smacked around".....that kind of behavior gets it's own reward in the end. What I won't put up with is lies and hate....I will always point it out, and will always fight back. I seriously doubt you could find a time where I attacked someone without provocation, or called someone here names, or used hateful language.
I wonder who started the "but you don't call out posters on your own side" routine? Its been going on for like ever, and serves no purpose that I can see, but most every thread ends up with either a conservative or a liberal asking the other side to condemn one of their own. Funny if you really think about it.
