One should never go out of their way to assassinate someone's character.<BR/><BR/>It's always more entertaining to watch them do it to themselves.earlcappshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13751508333538067979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12005502.post-73778341673834538332008-10-07T11:44:00.000-04:002008-10-07T11:44:00.000-04:00Earl, you're absolutely right, my generalization w...Earl, you're absolutely right, my generalization was way to broad - there are conservatives out there, yourself included who don't fit in such a mold as Fogle and the others do. <BR/><BR/>But let me throw it back at you<BR/>I'm going to tell you what Jake Knotts once told me - the only way you're going to change people's minds and dispell the broad categorizations is to do something about it. <BR/><BR/>Your correcting me is a first step, but only the first step.<BR/><BR/>And I agree with you - you don't have to assassinate someone's character, either explicity, or in the southern tradition <I>implicitly</I>, to prove a point... stick to the issues!Mattheus Meihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629195495902678804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12005502.post-5652672455879080902008-10-07T11:05:00.000-04:002008-10-07T11:05:00.000-04:00Hold on there ...

I'm a conservative South Carolian Republican, and you're not seeing me say anything like that.<BR/><BR/>While Ketner's political orientation is a valid issue, her sexual orientation is not.<BR/><BR/>One who thinks it is should keep in mind that in 2000, the then-Solicitor Republican David Schwacke had come out as gay and sought re-election. Out of over 20,000 votes in the GOP primary, he only lost by a couple hundred, and won Charleston County.<BR/><BR/>Using that as a wedge issue isn't what I'd recommend.earlcappshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13751508333538067979noreply@blogger.com
