And I know maggots when I see them.
Most of us been around these forums for a long time, and because of that we're used to all kinds of sophomoric attacks from posters who believe that the ends all to end all in a debate is to toss out "liberal", "libtard" RINO" or such other nonsense. When I see that, I immediately equate it to a liberal losing an argument... you know... when the race card gets played. Escalating the attacks to include insecta and other assorted vermin just means that we have now added beer to the sophomoric behavior.
If you were ever to accuse me of having liberal tendencies, I'd say that you were right. I am very much a Liberal Classic, and sometimes I may even brush up against post modern liberalism insofar as I truly believe that short of engaging in activities which pick my pocket or breaks my leg, people should be left alone to do as they wish, with no coercion from either the State, the Church, or a self-anointed morally superior Omnipotent Majority.
So, should you decide to accuse me of having "liberal sensibilities", you will be correct, so don't bother trying to cast the insult. Insults only work when they mean something to the targeted recipient.
I have a long, established habit of considering the source before embracing the moment (and the insult) as it were.
