Gary,

Your question was: “In what way is Mr. Farris a hypocrite?”

Sorry for my confusion! I never said that Mr. Farris was a hypocrite. 

What I said was: “Why don't your points about hypocrisy ever apply to Doug's comments?”

I should have said, "Back at you!"

What I meant to say is that you and Roger like to point out my failure to speak out against negative comments against political opponents. (Which is false, by the way; I point out negative comments on all sides.)

For instance, as you said below, I don’t comment on “attempts to disparage Mr. Farris for # of children, job status, religious affiliation, living arrangements, anniversary plans. etc and never a peep”. Yet both of you are guilty of a similar 'hypocrisy' by not scolding Doug Farris when he comments on Nick’s personal life, or in the latest instance, when he makes insinuations about teachers.

Of course, you seem to like to make insulting insinuations about teachers, too, so it is no wonder why you don’t call Farris on it.

In any event, I didn’t say that Farris was a hypocrite; I implied that if I am a hypocrite, then so are you and Roger.

Best, Joe

The very first short, simple sentence typified by the telltale question mark.

No apology necessary, this has been made painfully, and I would think
embarrassingly obvious time and again. I'll type slower in the future.

I simply noted that I wasn't interested in the topic and deleted it along with the many other posts that are not to my taste. No meat, no gravy. I also note no answer to my direct question. Have you considered malnutrition as a possible factor in your ongoing inability to discern the point (to say nothing of general content) of my posts?

>> From a consistency point of view however, why are you clawing your way up this mans backside for mentioning irrelevant matters of another V2020 posters personal life and yet remain strangely silent when his is brought into question? Several other members of this forum have made attempts to disparage Mr. Farris for # of children, job status, religious affiliation, living arrangements, anniversary plans. etc and never a peep from the philosophy dept. Commentary on Mr. Gier's lack of  marital credentials is off limits but disparaging remarks made by folks you agree with about Mr. Farris' mother go unremarked? Forgive me for saying so but that strikes me as hypocritical as well as completely unsurprising.
>> 
>> For the record I have absolutely zero interest in Mr. Gier's (or anyone else's) personnel/love life but find it as easy to delete as lengthy rehashes of various poster's radio shows/commentary's and voluminous essays on global warming.  I'll leave the not tolerating to you and yours.
