I find it interesting how many liberals on this site will defend Poet's most heinous remarks. For example, I haven't heard anyone on the left condemn his remark about wanting to smack a woman across the face. On the contrary, they will ignore it altogether, and then accuse conservatives of "picking on Poet," as though a 60-year-old man is not capable of defending himself. No other lefty receives this special treatment. I wonder why that is the case?
Poet is clearly a very troubled individual. Unfortunately, rather than attempt to encourage him to be a better person, many of our resident liberals go out of their way to defend his poor behavior.
I, too, have anger issues sometimes. The difference is that I do not hate people based on their beliefs. I actually don't hate anyone. I get along perfectly well with Dune, Don, Mott, and many other liberals. Dune and I have even had sharp disagreements...but at the end of the day, we respect each other. That is impossible with Poet. In Poet's little world, anyone who disagrees with him and just go fuck themselves.
More like, you hang on their every word. You add someone to your "ignore list" every day, only to respond to one of their posts within a 24 hour period. What are we supposed to make of that?
