I posted my opinion:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=3238385&mesg_id=3238385

...that the Sgrena shooting probably wasn't deliberate. The post was long and detailed and, I thought, reasonable.

In that thread, I was accused of helping along the military 'cover story.'

I was described as posting "Jeff Gannon style military porn."

Etc. Check it out.

I get just as annoyed and disgused as many of you do when someone here flies off the handle, denounces all DUers and uses whatever pissed them of as a brush to paint all progressives before saying they are leaving. Obviously, I'm not leaving.

But it is amazing how quickly you get chewed up around here if you don't buy into the conspiracy-du-jour. You're working for Bush or posting 'military porn' (whatever that is) instead of offering a reasoned opinion.

We could probably work on that 'liberal tolerance' thing we all take so much pride in.

Just a thought.

Now, if you will excuse me, I have to get in touch with Headquarters, after which I will update my prostitution website, continue the Franklin coverup, club a bay seal and litter with impugnity.

;)
