Yeah, I never understood that Candlegal. I mean what difference does it make if one is a Liberal or Conv., Dem. or Rep. or 3rd Party. Seems, to me that's what makes us all unique. Instead of attacking one another, why can't we all just debate in a manner that has us ALL able to give our opinions. Without the name calling. Ask questions of that person, not just call them all these horrible names.

LOL, it's about time, it used to be the other way around. What goes around comes around, right? :)Quoting parentalrights1:
There's a bunch of conservative members who always defend eachother and always have to deflect a post that reflects negatively on conservatism or christianity

Idk, I call it bullies, like in school. Even out in society, it like they have to have SEVERAL in a group, then I guess that makes them tougher. Everytime I see it here on CM, I laugh. Because, it's just like out in society or in our schools. It takes SEVERAL of them, to get the courage (I guess) to go up & gang up on just 1 person. I think they NEED at least a few of them in order to feel tough.

If I have & if you simply have just disagreed with me, I'm cool with that :) So, if I have accused you of this, I'm sorry. But, wouldn't you agree there is disagreeing & there's DISAGREEING that many moms on here also uses attack words. Insulting words. If someone disagrees with another poster, just say it. Ask questions of them. Don't just 'assume' right off the bat, challenge them on an issue & ask questions on WHY a person feels the way they do. People might be really surprised what they learn, if they only gives it a try.

Well I wouldn't call it 'cliques', I call it bullies. There are a group of about 5 moms or more, that does join in to attack one person. Reminds, me of bullies at achools. It's funny because you can see one of these moms on a thread, yet they don't attack you. Even when you are saying something very outspoken. I did that once & I was all ready for a huge attack lol. Yet, I didn't get that. I just think because it was just one of these moms in there. Had the others of joined, I'm sure the same would happen. Kinda wish we can all just have our differences, yet not bash others for their opinion. Challenge that person in a debate, that's what I think is fun. Not going into a thread, & see people bash just 1 person, all because they think differently. I speak my mind & how I feel about an issue, even if I know I'd probably get bashed. I'm pretty subborn as well. :)You have accused me of this when I just simply disagreed with what you are saying.
People disagreeing doesnt mean they are bullying.

That could be. I don't know why so many are opposed to having a respectful two way conversation.
