Do left-wing hacks unfarily get a pass while right-wing ones don't?

[Hash]

No. This is the type of "pity the poor conservative" self deprecating that the right wing always uses to make it seem less powerful than it really is.

I am not calling them hacks, but Keystone Phil, Sam Spade, Bush Oklahoma and Supersoulty are examples of conservatives who were/are well respected around here. Just because there are some liberal posters who have achieved the same level of respect doesn't mean the whole forum has a bias.

Phil was hardly liked around here. Thank God he left.

Of course they do, Vepres, but why are you surprised when left-wingers make up 70+% at least here.

Most of the hacks are still good guys, and it's fun to debate hackery.

Note: I meant hacks, not trolls

Of course. People like Al, BRTD, opebo, Lief, and a host of others are largely accepted and treated seriously on the forum, yet people like SPC, RowanBrandon, and others are often targeted and not taken seriously.

How are Al and Lief "hacks" ?

Ya, it just makes for a more target rich environment. Heck, on Free Republic, I was the only poster not banned who came out of the closet to support gay marriage, so it was about 5000-1.

They let RINOs on the Freeper website?

Just one. By the time "they" found out that I was a pinko, it was a bit too late to ban me, since I managed to get reasonably popular despite it all for some bizarre reason.

What's your strategy here Torie?  To get reasonably popular and then come out in favor of genocide?

I was going to start with gay marriage, and work up to genocide Lunar, but then the great cleansing intervened alas.
