We should start a petition to keep Michelle Obama from becoming First Lady. You know, just in case she tries it....
Back in the '90s when she stopped practicing, it was a requirement to petition the court to go on inactive status. Regardless of how that "sounds", it's a complete utter non-story. Look, I don't love the Obamas either, but they're not the Clintons.
Neither are the Clintons, but that never stopped the Right. (But between the two, the Obamas win every time.)
Coming from you, that's a real knee slapper. If I asked you for a glass of water, you'd give me a 75 page treatsie on the molecular composition and breakdown of H2o, the chemical composition of the glass/cup you planned on using, and the ambient temperature of the water versus room temperature.
Neuhaus is right. You're just a bully with a "moderator" tag. You're hateful, spiteful, and ignorant. You're rude, you push people around, and you threaten them when it suits you. It's not that your opinions are odious--you're certainly entitled to them. It's the way you post and the way you use your moderator position. Instead of making things run more smoothly, you add to discord through your angry behavior. I'm sure Chip values your work--behind the scenes, anyway. And I'm sure you do a lot to keep this board sane--again, behind the scenes (spammers and the like). But your posts are both personal and rude on a regular basis. Normally, one finds one defending him/herself against your boorish behavior. But since this post isn't about me, I feel like I should come to Neuhaus' defense and call you on it. Moderators should moderate, not agitate.
First of all, get some new material, you already made the 75 page treatise on a glass of water joke once before. Second, I'm not criticizing you for being verbose, I'm criticizing you for basically making angry, incoherent rants because you don't like Obama forsaking any semblance of objective reason in the process. Brief enough?
Really? Who have I bullied, how have I bullied them, who have I threatened, and how have I threatened them? Specifics, please. How do you people function in the real world?
In other words, you can't back up your assertions that I've bullied or threatened anyone here. Thanks.
