Well according to one of the left's heros Bill Maher, Timothy McVeigh would never be as evil as Islam.

So what does that have to do with the price of tea in China? He is still a hate spewing hero to the left.

Does it matter? I didn't know that it was illegal to be a communist in this country.

It has a lot to do with your seemingly chronic misconception of what a "leftist" is.

Really? He should tell that to the families of McVeigh's victims.

I agree but what he said is his view. Where oh where is the left? When anyione on the right says anything about muslims and islam the left are screaming and ranting in one loud voice. When one of the own says something, not a peep. Not a single word against Maher.

Probably because they agree with him.

You paint all liberals and "the left" (which is anyone not as rabidly right-wing as you) with a very broad brush.

It's not a black and white world, despite how desperately people like you try to make it so with your frenetic labeling of everyone.

That what McCarthy was doing was inherently un-American to the core is never fails to escape their notice.

Because they aren't real Americans either. But of course, they are the ones that wrap themselves in the flag and get tearful at Toby Keith songs.

Makes you sick, doesn't it?
