Yes, well, "he started it" is not a very persuasive response in my mind. I certainly don't mean to let Rocky off the hook, as his name calling is as bad or worse and I wish he would also knock it off.

For me when it comes to Adam it isn't even the name calling. To be honest, that doesn't bother me. Maybe it should, but it doesn't.

It's the purpose of his disguise and victim act combined with the vitriol and rhetoric that bothers me.

I claim no high moral ground here.

However, Adam's purpose behind his disguise is dirtier than any name calling on here and I will continue to fight it. And since that's his game, if I have to get ugly and dirty to fight it then I will, and without apology or regret.

He's SU Part Deux, only he'd like to have all of us know he still donates his time and money...lol.

So while Rocky pretends to be nobly protecting you all from my wolf in sheep's clothing Sherem routine, he is really just blinded by hatred of the Blue Devils and the Bronx Bombers. There really isn't anything deeper to it.

If I was a Cubs fan who went to law school at northwestern (or some such combination) we would probably be friends.

Now if you notice a few pages ago he threatened to take my virtual polemic here and use them against me in real life if I ever ran for public office again. If that doesn't violate internet discussion board ethics, I don't know what does. I hoped when FMCoug outed my real identity against my wishes last year it wouldn't come to this, but it has. There is no way to put that genie back into the bottle.

So I now say goodbye. Forever. Do a dance Rocky. With that threat, you just won.
Adam, that genie has been out of the bottle a lot longer than FMCoug.

That's just the nature of this world we live in. If you want to say your mind, people will threaten to use it against you.

A prominent member of CB has told me he is making a file on me to present to local church authorities.

That's just the way it is.

Look at Al Franken. He is testing the idea that you can be elected even if you haven't always been PC and hidden yourself away.

That threat by Rocky was way over the line. I can't believe it got so little attention.

You happy now, Rocky? How about you, Creekster?

Actually if Adam lived in SLC, I think his internet persona here would WIN him some votes.

1. The non-Mormons who distrust Mormons generally would be heartened.
2. Mormons, who prefer a Mormon to a non-Mormon would still support him

A liberal Mormon for the Democrats might have a place.

Just FYI, FM did not out you. Many people already knew who you were before last year.....I knew who you were through someone else's FO posts on CB awhile ago back in late 2006 or early 2007, I think. You should stop blaming him for doing that.

What I don't get, is why does anyone care what Rocky says? He's an imbecile. Imagine losing it because somebondy pointed out the thugs on the Dallas Cowboys.

Everyone agrees (I guess except Rocky) that Adam has posted a lot of interesting stuff here. Has Rocky? Someone show me an example, because I bet there isn't one. Rocky is an idiot and I'm sick of his loud mouth. Rocky, leave so Adam will come back, although I reiterate, Rocky shouldn't matter that much to anyone.

LOL. Who was that? I made a joke about that a long time ago, but I thought when I said that it was obvious I was kidding.

Keep in mind that Rocky actually did contact the parents of a potential BYU recruit and "call them on their bullshit". I don't think he is making an empty threat here.
