Names May Not Hurt People Physically, but…
Posted on January 01st, 2009 in Politics
Although other Oregonians may already be familiar with it, I just discovered NW Republican today. Strangely enough, it was in my Google Alerts email for “bicycle portland oregon.” Although I applaud them for giving kudos to Metroknow, after perusing a few posts, along with the “Moonbat Rules” on the lower right side, I have to point out that calling people names is probably not the best way to bring them around to your point of view. And yes, I do think that is true for people of any political persuasion.

I agree on the name calling issue. However there is a difference between ad-hominem name calling and using descriptive terms to speed up conversation.
I do not run around calling people names for the sake of calling names. Which is why I actually created the “moonbat rule book.”
Folks should read the moonbat rules carefully and ask themselves if they find themselves acting in like manner. If they don’t then they are not moonbats.
On the other hand…
