    Some of these phrases should be made into t-shirts that could be purchased by Fox News members, at rallies or by anyone with a general sense of detachment. They are used too often as a defense mechanism. How amusing:

    "Liberal Pile-on"
    "You've lost the argument"
    "I'll be the bigger man and not respond"
    "Incapable of facts and logic"
    "Shameful"
    "The Blacks"

    or for a couple of dollars more:

    -"I'll be the bigger man and not respond, but I've already responded with false information and insults."
    - "Incapable of facts and logic, but I can cut, paste and bold text from a browser."
    -"Shameful: online and in person"

    I'd buy one. They'd be good for Halloween or April Fools.

    So you would be for a government with more regulation on what grounds private businesses can let go of employees?

    What does this have to do with AE giving in to their 'higher moral ground' in fear of losing millions? I would have loved for them to stand their ground and watch the Robertsons walk. I just find it amusing the money always talks in the end.

    Phil wasn't an employee.

    To answer your off-topic question, no, there does not need to be more regulation.

    It's disgusting, not only to give in to greed but to ignorant hatred.

    Don't blame me for calling out the liberals on their crutches: personal insults and tossing the race card are quite overused...

    You can try to make fun of me, but that tells me all I need to know: that you cannot argue based on fact, logic and reason.

    Seems you find more fault with a single 67 year old man who is stuck in his own ways, versus a company on a crusade protecting their profits.

    Your stupid posts repeated over and over and over again tell everyone everything they need to know.

    Though I'm still waiting for a response to my evisceration of you.

    I'll wait, as countless others have waited for you to respond to being exposed for your nonsense.

    That A&E was wrong to cave in? It isn't the first time a company did that, nor will it be the last. Its what many companies do...

    Isn't this exactly what GLAAD did?

    Called out Robertson and A&E because he insulted them?

    Of all people you should be able to relate to GLAAD.

    Hmm, saying no doesn't do much to refute my point. It is ok, you do not have any evidence to do so, so it was your only option.

    Robertson could not make a point with facts.

    He just inserted his opinion. One that also happened to be insulting.

    GLAAD's actions mirror yours exactly.

    nope

    This is about insulting individual posters during a discussion in the D&D. This is not about sharing a man's opinion when asked about homosexuals.

    not that hard to comprehend

    Personal insult merits more than generalized insult, gotcha.
