Even though you quoted my examples, you didn’t dispute them at all. My religion has nothing to do with my feelings. I do respect the religious beliefs of a huge portion of our country who believe that killing a human fetus is killing a human being. They aren’t asking for it to be outlawed. They are asking you not to use their money to do it. You can expect an assault on the secret ballot and the right to bear arms. This administration has shown that it will just find ways to go around the constraints of our constitution. Exectutive orders and that ever present steady supply of regulations. As I said, I’m kind of done discussing all of this, as it is senseless. Good day!

Well, I didn’t really write this to discuss it, as much as simply putting out my feelings on the Transformation of America. If you don’t agree, you are in the majority and that may give you comfort. But, how about the freedom to keep the rewards of your efforts, without having them taken from you to supplement those who chose not to prepare themselves properly enough to support themselves? How about the freedom to chose who does get your charity? How about the freedom from having money taken from you to kill the human lives inside of women who simply were too irresponsible to keep from allowing a human life to be created within them. But, again, if you want to argue this there are plenty of places that will welcome it. I chose not to continue to discuss, argue, or fight over our different beliefs. You have yours, and I have mine. Time will tell all we need to know about right, wrong and complete misses.”

I hear this type of rhetoric from the right very often (voting away rights) and being a social liberal and fiscal conservative, I don’t really understand what rights we’ve voted away. You certainly haven’t shed any light on the situation. What I see is that the Republican party has aligned itself with the religious zealits of America who believe they have the right, not our constitution, of governing social behavior. That is why they lose elections. Has nothing to do with gifts to the poor or redistribution bullshit. Fiscal conservatives would flock to the republican ideal if it weren’t for the lunatics like Palin, Bach and others draping themselves in the flag and pounding the bible on their heads at every opportunity. The resistance to religious tyranny is what losses elections for the right, not any type of fiscal divide. My freedom ends where your nose begins and that is it. Realize it. Good day sir!

Exactly what freedoms have we voted away. It certainly isn’t the freedom to determine what you do with your own body or the freedom to vote without oppression.

Sis, the board was founded on being able to speak the way people wanted, about what they wanted. They got that. I have tried to convey my feelings in The Win and The Loss. I am no writer, obviously. But, I didn’t want to have a discussion about how right or wrong I am. It is simply how I feel. I don’t claim that it is right, or makes any sense. But, I have to say that for me to close my home to others seems like my right. It may not be right, but it sure seems to me that I should have that right. If I get tired of hearing my guests preach about how great everything is, that I strongly disagree with, and if I mention that I disagree with them I am (insert your own noun here). Best of all, is the personal attacks against me for not allowing it to continue. If someone was driving a speaker truck around town blaring that your wife was A Fucking Cunt, and they wanted you to pay for the gas to do it, and if you didn’t they accused you of censoring them, would you think that was the way it should be, or would you kind of question the whole thing? As bad as I feel about how it impacted some, others have shown that they should never have come into my home feeling the way they do about me. I never forced anyone to come into the Den,my home, and I really do not recall personally insulting any of my guests (although knowing me as I do, I probably did at times). Some seem to have taken things I said as insults, even though I have no intention of that happening. I will miss the Den, too.

Puzzled. I never understood why people wanted to argue religion or politics on a sports board. Too easy to fall to the lowest common denominator of name calling. Too hard — impossible — to convince anyone to your point of view. But I don’t understand what this achieves. Seems like the obvious thing would be to ban discussions of those topics. Your call, obviously. I’ll miss the den.
