But personal attacks and slurs draw attention to oneself, and that attention drives behavior for many people. It takes much more effort to engage in honest intellectual debate.

Are we really calling "Right Wing Flirties" a slur? As for "hack" is that abusive? You suggest Obama is the next Vladimir Lenin or Marx or Stalin, make Hitler references, talk about the "downfall of America" if Obama remains President, post mis-representative videos without context... then retreat into this "wounded me" stance? You've got to be kidding? And the intellectual debate lecture? hahaha You're funny, "Attention drives behavior for many people." "The boat was small the the sea was big." Any other peasant wisdom for us? I notice, Hoot, you haven't posted any YouTube videos dealing with our sweet dear Senate candidate in Deleware. Simple oversight I'm sure.
