Hello all,

Just thought I would bring this to anyone who is interested. Republican Pride

This is a site I am developing with some real enthusiastic political guys with very strong convictions. We are swinging for the fences with this one. We really want to give people a voice. A place where they can go and post good news, bad news, information, outrage. ALL OF IT.

We are looking for people to contribute full time, part time, at your own pace - whatever. We have some great contributors already and are looking for some more. So if your interested, swing by. Thanks!

fyi, for those who have not looked at this area of logic

ad hominem refers to a logical fallacy where the source of the argument, rather than the argument itself is attacked.

And as long as howard dean is the head of the democratic party, there will be no shortage to the loony left, which is unfortunate for the reasonable left.

Pff, c'mon. This Republican website has a subforum called "The Loony Left", with the description below it reading The stuff that just makes you wonder if liberals even take themselves seriously. I don't mind it, but on the other hand I wouldn't rant on someone just for saying "Don't get me started" either.


Point: Kenyon.

There's flaming aplenty on both the liberal and conservative side.

Personally, I don't mind hearing somebody called "loony," or whatever, if there are some facts to back it up. A lot of people confuse any disparaging language with ad hominem, but there's a difference:

You're a bonehead, therefor your argument is invalid.

Your argument is invalid, therefore you are a bonehead.

The first assertion is ad hominem, a fallacy. The second is possibly a valid line of reasoning, provided that the person making it can show why the argument in question is invalid.

I don't have a problem with a "Loony Left" forum. Just remember that such a forum's credibility will be predicated on the presence of factual examples of the Left's lunacy and undermined by any suggestion that all Democrats are like that. I think "The Extreme Left" would have been a better title for the forum, and it would better serve itself by leaving out the language about how liberals take themselves seriously--I myself know lots of liberals I take very seriously and quite a few I don't.

Demonstrate your hatred for people who think about things differently than you. Show your all encompassing compassion and tolerance for your fellow man by insulting them. Say how George Bush is evil and even take credit for Iraq. By the way they had another election with voter turnout higher than most other democratic countries the other day.

But yeah don't start, of course that would have required you not posting anything here at all.


George Bush is evil?

Especially with a statement like "Don't get me started about Republicans."

That's not a way you start out if you have any intention of being polite or kind towards someone.
