Not really 

Quote:If Dino calls someone a "simpleton" or a "ass" because of his political views or in simple disagreement, then I am not responding in kind, however subtly, if I call Dino's actions "a personal attack." I have not thereby just generated another personal attack if I ask him to desist.

I don't see Dino calling people simpletons or asses because he doesn't do it. I don't see that in my own behavior for the same reason.

Simple disagreement can be perceived as "subtle" personal attack, but the perception doesn't make it so.  

No, you don't see it because you're immersed in it.  As John Stewart said, "That's the soup you swim in".

I get you don't agree and I know why, so no need to belabor the point.
