(27,820 posts)Another classic DU-ism: If someone disagrees with you in any way, that means they are "trying to silence you", or they "want you to stay silent".
I see it every day. Post: "I don't agree with your position." Reply: "Don't tell me to STFU!"
Exactly where did I (a) tell you to stay silent, or (b) express that Iwant you to stay silent?
Oh, that's right - I didn't do either. But please feel free to go right ahead and pretend that's what I said.
"Some things cannot be condoned simply for the reason of supporting the President."
One can easily support a presidency overall without 'condoning' every statement made, every decision reached, every action taken. And if you think that there will ever be a POTUS who does exactly what you want him to do 24/7, one who will agree with your every position, one who will never do anything you find to be contrary to your views, feel free to go out and find him/her. I'm sure your messiah is out there somewhere.
