hmm - maybe calling your opponents Anti-American isn't such a good strategy after all

Well Obama uses wrongeous dignation, so there. Frankly, I’m not unhappy that people are calling Bachman and her fellow travellers on their divisive bullshit.

Indeed. Tom Harkin’s opponent actually called him “the Tokyo Rose of Al Qaida”, and then some.

This year’s crop of Republicans is particularly vile.

If it makes you feel any better, Nobody, I saw what you did there.

:slight_smile:

Maybe the next step for Bachman is going to be using quotes from The Turner Diaries to support her positions.

The only congressperson on my blocked email list! I have no idea why I was getting emails from her; I’ve never even been to her state.

Maybe that’ll kick things into overdrive.

Oh, it’s not just Americans. Remember the huge to-do within the Muslim world following the Danish cartoons depicting Mohammaed? Happens in other countries as well, although no examples immediately come to mind.

Try refering to a Scotsman as English.

“Horrible”'s a pretty wide bucket. Chinese abuse of intellectual property law is horrible. The Holocaust was horrible. The first few minutes after waking from surgery is often kind of horrible.
So, where, Nobody, do you think people are going? Who’s going to step up to the plate now? What will no longer be sacred? What will we see? More particularly, is there a particular political show to watch for it???
I can’t wait. I’ve always had this, I dunno, this thing for moral failure. I can’t get enough. It’s like cinnamon scent drifting from a bakery to me. Way back in 2001 - remember summer of 2001? Remember? So long ago. Bill Clinton was telling Gary Condit, “Hell, Gary, at least when I was done with them they were still breathing!” Life seemed so simple then, but also so safe, almost boring. The entertainment value of politics has become so concentrated, it’s like tasting the snaps on a 9V battery.
