Do you agree that I should have been flagged for this???
I can see if I was out of line and disrespectful but I don't see it,
A little help
Thanks/ Dez
Question: Does anyone get the feeling that if this joke was played on Bush, he'd be so confused he'd just buy a new car?
Question Details: Dez: As a soldier, it is your sworn duty to defend my right to say whatever I want. So deal with it.
Deleted Answer: as an American and Soldier, I have said it a 100 times on here it's your right as an American to disagree with the President and engage in friendly debates, but this flat out hate, name calling and disrespectful screen Icons about our president is uncalled for and UN-American, you got people that are so blinded by hate and this Anti-American hate machine, I don't hate the Bush Haters, just feel sorry for them.

My man, if that got you flagged, it is a wonder I have not been suspended.
But I have a little thumbs down troll that finds me somehow and no matter how banal or even correct my answer is, I get the ole thumbs down
Question-the number preceding 3
Answer 2 = thumbs down
Even if the answer above and below mine say the same thing (with no thumbs down of course)......ha..ha..
I just take it as a compliment that I have disturbed some small minded person so much that they run like little children to report me.
Hang in there, I personally love your witty repartee!!

Had the majority of the posters here been fair, educated, and able to control emotions you would not have been flagged. You have basically spoken the truth. It is very inappropriate to be disrespectful and hateful to our president simply because of who he is.
I know many act this way because of their emotions regarding the last 2 elections, the war on terror, and other things that this president is responsible for, but the facts still remain the facts and these people have no basis for their hate and disrespect.
And have you ever noticed it is usually the ones screaming for fairness and equality.

Last I checked I still lived in America where we have the freedom of speech, just because you don't agree with this person, doesn't really mean a whole lot!
He can say, think, or project his views about the president as he sees fit, we also have the freedome of Press, or....should Gore Vidal also be prevented from speaking out about our so called President...He calls Bush stupid and cowardly all the time!

Some people can't take a joke, they just can't. My joke about the perverted senator got reported too.
If you remember way back when Clinton was president, they were selling gun targets with his photo on them. I wonder if the fake soldier was outraged at that or just your joke. It's called hypocrisy.

The only part of your answer I personally find offensive is labeling someone as "UN-American". These days, that is some pretty serious name calling.
I wouldn't have reported you for that, but I bet the "un-American" crack is what did it for whoever did flag you.

It's actually very American to voice your opinion about this joke of a president. Unlike other countries where you could be killed for bad mouthing your dictator. I feel sorry for the brain washed fools who still support the performing buffoon we call our president. He is a war criminal and one day will be noted as such in the history books:)
Have a nice day!

There's a heck of a lot of thin skin on all sides of the debate.
Nobody gave a rat's bunghole when people lambasted Clinton over Monica in these sorts of forums.
You have the ABSOLUTE right to your opinion, in the service or out of it. AND the absolute right to express it, or the right wouldn't have any meaning.
Freedom first, patriotism a distant second, IMO.

No, but obviously someone didn't like your answer. I've have many flagged that were just as innocuous, but someone took offense and reported them.

You will get violations for the truth and anything politically incorrect. You can cuss and call people names.
President bashing is a soviet political practice and those who practice are either ignorant or communists.

Yahoo reads random anwers that get flagged. Otherwise they just assume and delete them.
