233. But Will, how can you tell they're sitting?
They're names on a board, for cripes sake?

As for opinions, really that's all any of us are doing. You think some opinions are bullshit. Some think yours are bullshit. You seemed to say that others have no right to their opinions unless they'd met Cindy and done what she's done. Hence, you devalue their opinions and insinuate they sit on their butt all day. You don't know that. If posting on an internet board was evidence of sitting on one's butt all day doing nothing for the cause, then you'd be guilty too.

And I've never said anything about anyone silencing others opinions. As if we could do that on an internet board. I've always found that concept patently absurd, regardless of who says it.

Personally I get trounced every time I head over to DailyKos with Kerry information. But there are about a dozen people there who appreciate it. I could easily whine about how the dittoheaded Kossacks are trying to silence me with their snarky comments. But I don't. I just rebut them and come back the next day with more news about a speech.

Nobody's trying to silence anybody. Everyone is offering an opinion, even if that opinion is that you should shut the fuck up. Do what I do on Kos. Show up the next day with the same thing.

Will, you're whining. It doesn't become you.
