This is why I no longer do the political discussion sites

I gave up participating in them about a year ago. For over five years I was known as "Darth Sidious" on Free Republic, until FR went neocon-crazy and banned me. Then it was a good stint on Liberty Post for awhile. I still watch LP every now and then for stuff... even though I can't stand the mean-spiritedness of many of its posters at all.

This is one example that I found a few minutes ago, from a thread about Supreme Court chief justice William Rehnquist returning to the hospital:

2. To: out damned spot (#0)

Rehnquist is next, then Stevens and finally Cancer-girl Ginsberg.

Man would I hate to be a liberal, even if they were to win in 2008, the Dem will have to face a 7-2 Republican SC.

LOSERS.

Gloating over the ill health of two or three Supreme Court justices out of bitter partisanship... that's just too cold.

That is why I gave this up: I didn't want to be tempted to become this way myself. And I was getting too close to it as it was anyway.

    Wow, didn't know you were a freeper. That piece you did on pat
    robertson awhile back, would have took you for a liberal christian.
    so, I guess you're for bush's war based on lies. bush=fake- christian, a christian would never
    own or wear a pair of 50,000 dollar boots.

    Jesus was a liberal
    feed the poor heal the sick
    its easier for a camel to past thru the eye of a needle than a rich man to get into heaven

    Ummm, I've never been for Bush's war in Iraq.

    Not ever.

    And I would say a lot about Bush's supposed Christianity, but I'm trying not to judge another's spiritual state, as Jesus taught us. That said: I'm SEVERELY disappointed with Bush's behavior and attitude. Real "Christians" don't flip the bird at other people. Or send others to die in another land whereas they are too scared to go fight themselves.

    Are Bush's boots *really* $50,000?!? Sheesh...
