Yeah, it goes something like this (the pattern has repeated itself probably 10 times or more on NFCF etc):
*The next "oh-where-oh-where-are-the-conservatives" post in 10 ... 9 ... 8 ... 7 ... 6 ... 5 ... 4 ... *
(Handwringing and worried look on brow) "Oh where or where are the conservatives? They bring such a wonderful balance to this board! Oh, I hope they aren't offended by anything!")
And of course then usually one will answer and say (type) in that grave, anointed voice: "Oh, we are deeply grieved in our spirit and have decided to shake the dust off our feet( codespeak for "our arguments don't hold water) and so have decided it is fruitless to post here. But if the administration reigns in those nasty old liberals, we MIGHT deign to post here again."
And of course the Greek Chorus will then moan "Oh, I hope you dooooo!"
I gotta give Epley credit.
He's never took part in the foolishness.
He just posts when he wants to and doesn't when he doesn't want to.
By the way, what time is it in China now, Brad?
