He coined the term set "horrible person" / "freedom fighter". Nuff said.

Oh yes. More than most actually; it's just that it's not done in an especially crass way.

Not really, although I think he takes more extreme positions than he actually believes sometimes to elicit angry liberal replies.

Specidfically, I think on the property and voting rights issue you started from your most extreme position and worked your way toward sanity;)

I can't say I've read enough of his posts really Sad From what I've seen though, no more than normal.

Occasionally. But most of us are guilty of it at some point.

Ah, my collegue fromt the great keystone state of Pennsylvania.  Home of the bloody PA-13 district, where political tensions are so think you need a chainsaw to cut through the thick rhetoric and intregue.

 A poster who may not be so much a cynic as a skeptic, or may indeed be both.  Truely a freedom fighter in the most extreme sense of the word - making sure no freedom is unchallenged, no right untrampled.

Or not. 

Despite my massive intelect, matched only by the grand two headed baby-eating troll opbeye/hawkbo, I lack sufficent resources to pass grand judgement on this true blue poster with the blood red avatar.  Tis my achillies heel, I most humbly regret.

He usually makes very long posts, comparatively speaking to everyone else who responds to a certain topic, but which are generally well written and free of egregious uses of hyperbole.

Senator Gabu is one of the most respected as well as one of my more favorite posters. His use of hyperbole is minimal at most.

Dr. Cynic should use more hyperbole for entertainment purposes, but no, he does not.

No, J.J. doesn't use hyperbole.  I can't think of a time he ever did, actually.
