I adore him for all his conservativeness:) Politesub that is

How can he be a con?
He is always civil.
He never pouts.
He does not call people names.
He does not condescend.
He is not arrogant.
When he is wrong (which is seldom)he admits it.
When he is right (which he often is)he does not gloat.
He never comes to a discussion unprepared.

Oh, I wasn't having a go, Lucy, and I like the bloke myself. He was just the only Brit poster to spring to mind who's said anything even vaguely positive about the wicked witch...

In the past few days a number of hugely misleading reports have circulated in both Britain and the United States alleging that Margaret Thatcher snubbed Sarah Palin. It all began with a blog post in The Guardian claiming the former prime minister had refused to meet with Mrs. Palin on her upcoming visit to London, on the grounds that she was “unworthy of an audience”, and quoting an anonymous “ally” of Lady Thatcher.

...

I have spoken to Lady Thatcher’s Private Office regarding the story, and they confirm that the attack on Sarah Palin definitely did not come from her office, and in no way reflects her views. As a former aide to Margaret Thatcher myself, I can attest that this kind of thinking is entirely alien to her, and that such remarks would never be made by her office. She has always warmly welcomed like-minded figures in the United States, and has in the past met with numerous US presidential candidates and political dignitaries when they have visited London. But at the age of 85 she is now able to receive very few visitors at all.

There was never any snub of Sarah Palin by Lady Thatcher’s office. However, there has been a great deal of mischief-making and unpleasantness from sections of the liberal press in a vain and futile attempt to use Margaret Thatcher’s name to smear a major US politician.

Margaret Thatcher did not ‘snub’ Sarah Palin

In light of this thread, I believe the last paragraph bears repeating:

There is, obviously, a great deal you do not realize.

Due to the act that you are an arrogant, name calling, condescending, uncivil pouty person who has never admitted an error, then you must be conservative by your own definition.

I have found the best way to handle tompsonx is to block and ignore.
