[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote][b]Once again, your statements reveal your high opinion of your own beliefs and views, as well as your low regard for conservative opinions. [/b]That's fine because freedom of speech is one of our country's greatest freedoms, but you're not sounding like a person who's tolerant of views different than your own. [/quote]

NP here, and this is one of the sillier tautologies I've ever read.  So your beef with the PP is that she thinks she is right, and thinks you are wrong?  And she thinks that people with whom she agrees are correct, and people with whom she disagrees are incorrect?  Well . . . yeah. Of course.  Do you often go around espousing ideas you KNOW, or even think, are incorrect?

As to your final "point," you seem to be mistaking tolerance with agreement.  I tolerate opposing views just fine.  Just because I don't end up agreeing with you, though, doesn't make me intolerant.  Good grief.  [/quote]

No, I don't think tolerance should be equated with agreement. Within a supposedly polite discourse or internet discussion (not some guy hidden behind a robe and spouting hatred), I'm referring to the idea of "listening" with politeness and respect for another person's viewpoint without name-calling and belittling terminology.
