Is that how you view people you think of as conservative? Just curious.
Well, apparently 54% of somebody thinks Michael Moore should be institutionalized.... it's a public poll, so you can see for yourself! Poll: What Is Your Opinion On Michael Moore?

I agree... and I think some people forget we're talking about AMERICAN Jews, not Israeli ones. Hopefully we vote for the side we feel is best for this country, and apparently most Jews believe it's the Democrats. I don't think about Israel when I'm voting in a US election - do you??

Obviously if a candidate is blatantly anti-Israel and/or anti-Semitic, I probably won't support them... but it's not the first thing on my mind, nor is it the deciding factor to me. I don't know enough about Israeli politics to judge, let alone allow it to skew my American political views.

Sorry, I just don't put much stock in internet polls. I don't care what side is being promoted.

Who was asking you to take "stock" in it? Of course it's not a real poll, LOL! I was simply answering your question: "Please, name names. As a conservative (I guess I am anyway) I want to know who in God's name would want the aforementioned jailed and tortured because of their political beliefs."

You asked for names, so I provided them... that's a poll from THIS forum, in case you didn't notice, so now you see which conservatives want him institutionalized. Get it?

Okay, okay. I didn't disagree with anything you said. Just added an opinion. As an aside. Nothing too serious to get worked up over.

If you think that's excited, you should see me when I'm ACTUALLY fired up!! Oh, but you were actually disagreeing with me, if you want to get technical about it - hence the "sorry" part of your response.

Chill out! Nobody wants your Sacred One institutionalized, it was just a sentiment and a funny one at that!
