Read a few of the posts on that website and you will see that style portrayed in almost every post.

Somehow I just don't think hyperbole by radio talk show host describes a party-wide election straegy.

One of the posts concluded that he is a "union hack" because he received fees of a little over $20k from unions last year. I'll stand up right now and tell it like it is. My partners and I made a little more than $20K in fees from unions last year.

Regards,

Jack,

Do you really believe that this guy, who most of us had not heard of, is the Democratic party personified. I am quite certain that no one is expected to walk lock-step in his thinking. I am also confident that you are more than intelligent enough to recognize the difference between a guy making an absurd statement to make a point and someone advocating massive criminal activity - unless you choose to ignore that difference to make your own point.

As far as slandering the Republican Party, the truth is a defense. The acknowledged mouthpiece of the Republican party has suggested that it is race-based pandering to give priority to a situation in which hundreds of thousands of people are dead or at risk of dying. He clearly did not misspeak, because he later endorsed his diatribe. When that Republican opinion maker spews such vindictive garbage, there is no need to make anything up. He stands alone as the best witness to the depths to which the right wing will stoop.

Regards,

D-Ray

And all this time, I thought I was the lone exception.

Not at all. When you post you have a point and you make it well.

Nah, you're just the lone ranger. No really, you think about it before you say something that is completely wrong. There is a difference between taking a conservative position and spouting conservative shtick. My impression from reading a limited number of posts is that you lean right, but you're not afraid to use your left hand. (Sorry, had to stretch a bit for that metaphor)

Regards,

D-Ray

A yoke and a metaphor... You are on a roll tonight Counselor!

I am Left when it's right and Right when it's right. Or at least I would like to think so. Mostly, I'm just frustrated with the whole thing
