No thanks. Madame doesn't mean shit when she is a conservative. Thatcher didn't help the UK and TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #4
That's rude. n/t Kang Colby Oct 2015 #6
Rude in what way? Is it rude to assert she is liberal? Disagreement with you is not rudeness. TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #15
Using her name in the same paragraph as Thatcher is, in my opinion, rude. n/t Kang Colby Oct 2015 #17
Well, then that is like your opinion. I obviously don't share it nor am I obligated to indulge it. TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #39
No, what's rude is determining a "Madam President" Le Taz Hot Oct 2015 #88
Hillary Clinton lovemydog Oct 2015 #10
Obama is also a conservative just a a very slightly more moderate one than Clinton. TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #14
That's your opinion. lovemydog Oct 2015 #24
It is and those more often than I'd prefer come out in the wash as fact. TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #51
Obama called himself a 'moderate Republican of the 80s' on economics. RichVRichV Oct 2015 #67
No room for pragmatism among some folks here. Go for the perfect at the expense of the possible. kelliekat44 Oct 2015 #104
Yup. Not much room for proper use of words lovemydog Oct 2015 #113
Calling Obama a conservative is extremist leftist rhetoric. MohRokTah Oct 2015 #29
Absurd ramblings of a conservative surrounded by radical regressives to the point of TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #52
I've suffered your rude insults enough MohRokTah Oct 2015 #87
No response to who occupies the center/right and then the "moderate" right because the gig would TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #92
I would argue Liberaltalker Oct 2015 #78

You should alert those jury results and send to the admin. nt Cali_Democrat Oct 2015 #58
I posted it on the Ask the Admins page ronnykmarshall Oct 2015 #121
I don't feel I have to but it is the reasonable and best thing to do. The Turd Way must be flushed. TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #48
Um ok .... ronnykmarshall Oct 2015 #49
You're welcome and don't ask questions you don't want answered and can't argue. TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #50

That's it. EXACTLY. People keep saying that these people will "come around" after the primary Number23 Oct 2015 #108
I completely agree....the board will not change in any significant manner Sheepshank Oct 2015 #109
The party isn't about your favorite corporate approved personalities and disapproval of their position TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #126
Probably the same reason Hillarians feel that posts like this OP, which belongs in the HRC Doctor_J Oct 2015 #74

Hey Merrily! I reckon it sounds more flowery than Ms. President since we do Mister. TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #82
Should be parallel, no. I mean, imagine if a female President were addressed incorrectly and she merrily Oct 2015 #83
LOLZ...agreed TheKentuckian Oct 2015 #85
It's the distaff version of "Mr. President" or "Mr. Secretary." calimary Oct 2015 #89
No, the distaff version of "Mr. President" would be "Ms. President," which is my point. merrily Oct 2015 #93
You were the one who originally stated the premise as "Madame." calimary Oct 2015 #94
