Boy, if you disagree with with the right wing on one of their issues that makes you anti-American.
There are plenty of people in both parties who have that line of logic - either you are "with us" or you are "one of them".
For example, I tend to lean to the right on a majority of issues, but I also support the right for homosexuals to legally marry. I say that and get called a "flaming liberal," even though I am generally more conservative. Or I say that I think Bush II was a horrible President...same result (along with some of that "love it or leave it" crappola when I would say that while he was still in office).
On the flip side, I say something like, I want to see the tax cap on earnings for social security stay in place, those on the left will bash me for being elitist and not caring about my fellow citizens.
There are a lot of partisan hacks out there who have difficulty wrapping their narrowly-focused, pea-sized brains around the concept that someone can lean to one side on some issues, and to the other side on others. To them, it has to be "their side" - all or nothing.
Well come on,she was until very recently not even considered a front runner.
And she is from Delaware a state no-one really cares about anyway...
She has run for senate a number of times. Our vice president is from Delaware, and I care about Delaware. I used to live there, and I love their beaches.

Right both sides have their radicals. But it's a question of scope and degree.
The right wing rhetoric is so bad now, that kooks are going out and killing people. And by and large the killing is being done by white male losers who've been set brainwashed by right wing rhetoric. The bad actions of the left don't come close to what is taking place on the right

Here we are folks. Truly a misguided post. Is there even a smidget of truth in this?

Too true. In the words of Elbert Hubbard: The recipe for perpetual ignorance is a very simple and effective one: be satisfied with your opinions and content with your knowledge.

We can't be going that far, now.
It's "Ozzy made me do it" on a bigger scale. This would give some of them all they needed to reverse that and go for censure crap. Can't have that. And I am not defending a whacknut that decided to hold people hostage.
