Roger, this is the first time I have had a chance to defend myself because in order to silence my ability to defend what really should need no defense, RobS has been violating Conservapedia rules by blocking me without cause.
As Rob stated above, I have been consistently praising him and his work on the McCarthy page. He and I have worked well together up until very recently. For some reason, Rob stopped communicating with me about his edits, started adding non-cited info to the article, and was adding info to the article that duplicated what we were saying thus making the article sound incoherent. I tried to communicate with Rob but he refused to respond or when he did respond, he made absolutely no sense. It was like we were talking about two different things. At that point, TK came into the discussion and made some comments to me that I took as being critical of me and my work. After having had a chance to chat, TK and I worked out our issues and I decided on my own to remove my critical response to TK based on the fact that I no longer felt those words were appropriate. Now, for some unknown reason, Rob decides to lock the McCarthy thread so that he alone can edit the article. He did this inspite of the fact that Andy had originally unlocked the article at my request so that I could work on it.
I contacted TK about the bizarre lock and he conferred with other Sysops who then elected Geo to mediate the matter and re-opened the article. I explained my concerns in the section that Geo created on the McCarthy Discussion page. Rob remained silent. A couple of days later, Rob reverts my removal of my comments about TK. I reverted them back with a request to Rob to explain why he did that. Rob would not address my question but instead blocked me in violation of Conservapedia rules. I don't really know how many times in the past few days Rob has blocked me and considerate Sysops have unblocked me. I have no way of checking this fact. All I know is that Rob has been involved in some kind of idealogical conflict with other Sysops and editors over I believe the "Darwin" article and other articles. Rob was trying to use my previous post of what I said to TK as a weapon against TK. That's why Rob wanted to keep those words in place. Rob seems to believe that there is some kind of conspiracy against him and so he has maliciously called me a "meatpuppet" even though I have done nothing to call for such an insulting accusation that is yet another violation of basic Conservapedia rules. In reality, Rob has used me as his "meatpuppet" to attack TK. That's why he is so insistent on keeping my words about TK on your Talk page.
Worse yet, on Rob's Talk page, he states, ''"Scorpio however, is pursueing all the old cases McCarthy pursued --the cases McCarthy had wrong about being involved in espionage."'' Remember, it was just a short time ago that Rob was praising my work but now that he thinks I'm involved in a conspiracy against him, he attacks me with false accusations. Rob is wrong here about the McCarthy info I have posted and knows it. If he doesn't know it, he has no business working on the McCarthy article. The info I post comes primarily from the ''Congressional Record'' and the book by William F. Buckley that fairly addresses McCarthy's cases. There's no question about the validity of this info. Only the most dishonest left-wingers deny this info. But because Rob now has some agenda, it's sad to say that he has seemingly joined the chorus of those people.
Rob continues by saying, ''"Scorpio wants to add language from highly partisan McCarthy supporters written in the 1950s to defend McCarthy, and wants CP to claim it is the definitive historic record."'' Again, Rob is making absurd claims. Unless Rob thinks that the ''Congressional Record'' is a highly partisan McCarthy source, then he's way off base here. As for saying that I want Conservapedia to make any kind of claim, is even more absurd. I have never said anything like that. As every Conservapedia editor wants, I just want to provide accurate, verifiable, and truthful information that fairly reflects Senator McCarthy's life and work. If that is a crime, then I'm guilty. But we all know that it is not and Rob is grasping at straws in his effort to attack me.
Lastly, Rob states, ''"Hence, Scorpio wants exactly what McCarthy's (and CP's) detractors want -- then and now -- they want Conservapedia to take a highly partisan stand on an area that the historic record cannot exonerate."'' Yes, Rob actually said that. He is now essentially putting me in the same vein as Communists, left-wingers, fellow travelers, etc.!! And just as bad, he's either flat out lying about my intentions or is simply ignorant of the matter. Either way, these are false accusations and again, Rob has violated Conservapedia rules. Exactly how many times a Sysop can violate basic rules and still remain a Sysop is something you and the other Sysops should rightfully address. Rob has clearly taken the fun out of contributing here at Conservapedia. Instead of focusing on adding and improving articles, I've been blocked and forced to come here and defend myself from outrageous allegations. I don't know, maybe Rob has suddenly found my name in the [[Venona]] files and now believes that I am an espionage agent!! I really don't know what's going on in his head and why he would make absurd allegations and hateful insults with no foundation in reality. But for whatever reason, he has made them and performed acts in violation of conservapedia rules.
I have two options here. I can either ignore his bizarre and hateful comments or I can defend myself and ask for appropriate action to be taken. Based on these issues, I am requesting an official inquiry into Rob's slander and actions and that his privileges as Sysop be suspeneded or revoked and his ability to edit be temporarily halted until all his recent edits on all articles, be examined for verifiable truth. I do not make this request easily and it is with a heavy-heart that I ask something of this nature. However, when an editor, and especially a Sysop, abuses his privileges and directly works to hurt other editors and Sysops, this person must be prevented from damaging the credibility of Conservapedia and the wonderful work we are doing here. After having consulted other Sysops, I have been informed that I should also petition Andy directly, so as per that advice, I will be sending Andy a formal request for an investigation into the abusive and abhorent behavior of RobS. I pray that the wisdom of the rational Sysops here prevails and appropriate action be taken to prevent Rob from further abusive behavior against me, other Sysops, other editors, and Conservapedia as a whole. Roger, in the meantime, I ask that you continue to have Geo monitor the McCarthy article and prevent Rob from further abusing me. Thank you for your time and help.
