Flip - No comment from you yet on the habeas corpus issue. FDR imprisoned hundreds of thousands of Japanese AMERICANS by suspending habitués corpus.
Ok, it looks like we are there. I am not talking for Sox . . . but when I saw that comment I took it differently than you. I saw it as more friendly than you did. I thought he was laughing at himself.flip-flop wrote:See above CG - you are right and I'll even admit Sox is right. I am ready to let it go.

sox fan on 1/20 - Or "mulato"...Ha! Yes girls, it is still an outdated term that I don't know how to spell!
Connie, this is the ultimate can of worms.
Flip on 1/20 - And Soxfan, as the mama to two biracial children, "Mulatto" is 1) not commonly used in the this country and 2) considered offensive by many who happen to be biracial. Why having been told this in past postings would you choose to continue to use the term. Right, to inflame.
Flip on 1/20 - And I let the "Ha Girls" slide. Clearly, not only does Mr. Soxfan have issues with our new president's skin but also with us gals having opinions and such. Such a class act all around, I'd say.
Flip on 1/21 - I think you are finally getting it. Dude, you are so worse than Bush. I am pretty damn sure even he knows that the use of Mulatto is inappropriate in any circumstance.
Flip on 1/21 - Maybe it went unnoticed but Soxfan has made his own bed here. Perhaps you were not around for his jews on the train to Auschwitz post or for the many times he called me things, Girl being the best amoung them.
Do you honestly think he had lofty intentions when he posted this "Or "mulato"...Ha! Yes girls, it is still an outdated term that I don't know how to spell!"
Flip on 1/21 - For reference some Soxfan quotes I've compiled along the way. You claim lofty goals but clearly never listen to anyone but yourself or those who agree with you 100%. You pick fights with EVERYONE, not just me or the other libs here. Even those trying to make some peace are open game.
1. (this is a quote from the fall, not 'recent')"You guys supporting Obama are akin to the Jews on the trains headed to Auschwitz. You think everything will be okay...You think you're "just going away for a bit"...You think you'll be going home soon...You think your house will still be there when you get there...All of this despite the obvious intentions of the leader leading you down the primrose path. There, I said it. A bunch of sheep, led by Keith Olbermann."
Flip on 1/23 - You've been remarkably silent about the myriad of references you made in the run up to the election of Obama = Hitler. I think your comments actually made Rush look timid. Further, your repeated use of the word Mulatto with no apology to...
Flip on 1/24 - I just happen to a strong distaste for bullies and people who hide behind fairly anonymous screennames (remember you don't post your picture in case you run into anyone at the beach bar) and spew hate that they would NEVER EVER IN public have the guts (I really want to use another word here) to share.
Flip on 1/24 - There are many appropriate metaphors you could have used to express your point - sheep, lemmings, etc. Nope you took it to the JEWS on the train. Say what you want but that does nothing but evoke if you vote for him we're all gonna DIE. It stokes hate in some and makes others just think you are insane
Sox on 1/24 - I AM SORRY I USED THE TERM. POOR TASTE ON MY PART.
Flip on 1/26 - You going off on your metaphorical Hilter train was flat out offensive and inappropriate (sorry I guess I have my forum police badge on again). Call it metaphor all you like, but comparing Obama to Hilter in any sense, metaphorical or otherwise is WAY UNCOOL, MAN. I called you on it. Repeatedly, yes.
Flip on 1/26 (obscure Internet "Law" again relating to Hitler/Nazi's) - My favorite new rule: Godwin's Law.
Google it if you want to know more. That's all I'll say.
Sox on 1/27 - Look Flip, we both said things we probably regret. I more than you. If you'd like to keep bringing this mindless BS up, then be my guest. I however, after numerous apologies, will not entertain your flames anymore.
Actually, the record shows senator that you are the one who continually has beaten this dead horse.Flip on 1/28 (today) - I don't like bullies and I was unable, despite my better judgement, to let the "OBAMA is a socialist, communist, hilter-like, supporter of infanticide" who is also a milano (in fairness he didn't mean the cookie but the pejorative term to describe someone with a parent who is black and a parent who is white), and all of us following him are lambs to the proverbial slaughter, sheep, and Jews on that train to the concentration camp BS slide. Metaphor or not, some of the stuff was so far out of line, I felt the need to offer and alternative perspective. And the Hitler and Mulatto references were repeated by Sox
Flip on 1/28 (today) - Well I was going to go add up the references to Obama that included socialist, friend to terrorists, milano/mulatto, hitler, or communist and use that as my baseline, but then I lost count.
I'd be happy to let it go if you think you can refrain from using such inflammatory and baseless language in the future.
Most recent? I said it on the 20th and apologized at least twice for the comment (even though as Gina pointed out, it was a little self-deprecating humor aimed at me)...At one point in the last week, I even said that I would NEVER say the word again, and I have not - but you have.Flip on 1/28 (today) - And I had, COMPLETELY, until the more recent "Mulatto There I said it girls" post unhinged me. I don't think the forum needed it beaten into them, but I do think he did. Promise, if I don't hear another reference along the lines that I outlined above, I will not mention it again.
