Associated Content: Down Rater's Paradise, or Just Good Clean Fun?

DISCLAIMER: This article is addressed to the down raters who down rate every ting I say no matter what it is I have said. It is in NO WAY addressed to those who disagree with my philosophical viewpoints unless you are guilty of this childish act. I am NOT lumping into that category those with the decency to at least leave a rational difference of opinion in the comments section. I truly appreciate those with the fortitude to state their objections.

What's up CP's and commentators? Having a good day, are ya? Down rated anyone just because you don't like them? Hey, it's early. Click one star on this one. Let's see if we can get it so low it has a negative rating. C'mon, ya know ya want to. Do it. Go on - do it!

In case you are far removed from kindergarten and you thought you'd forgotten how to act like a kid remember this - every time you down rate a CP because you don't like them personally, or you just disagree with their usual viewpoint, you are acting like a five year old. Do you still get a bottle of juice at bedtime? Suck your thumb? Whine and moan like an immature little brat? Ah, now we're getting' somewhere!

Now for the second disclaimer: I am not a professional writer. Could ya tell (I ask jokingly)? I do not do this to further a career goal and I really don't give a rat's ass about how many stars I get. But, just because I don't care does not mean that I'm not aware of what the Hell's going on.

First off let's hit the page views controversy. I'm a hateful Conservative, so don't read me? Ooops! I didn't need to say that - y'all already largely ignore me. I have an average of about 150 views per article. Some of the more vocal of the Libs here have 600 views per article.

Now, I understand the concept that the longer an article is around the more views. I understand that one cat wrote about Webkins and got a million views on that article alone. I get it. But I'm talking political and op/ed submissions here.
