As opposed to the "I got mine screw everyone else, globally and locally" consistent conservative behavior.

And if you totaled up all the members ever a part of all of those groups you might get enough people to fill a single mini-van.

Now let's compare that to the millions of members or former members of right wing terrorist groups like the KKK, the anti-immigrant groups, the right wing militia nutters, or the anti-abortion nutters who want to murder for Jesus.

I find that ignoring earth day bothers libs more than going out of my way to burn more energy. That and pretending to be ignorant that today's earth day. Oh, and pulling up to Whole Foods (for my Red Oak microbrew fix) with my "got AK?" bumpersticker.

You people crack me up. So this Einhorn dude was a freak and a psycho, so that makes all environmentalists freaks and psychos? ROTFLMFAO!

Following that same train of thought........wasn't it the pilgrims/religious nutsos in Salem, MA that burned people for being witches when they were actually high from ergot of rye?

LOL, let's move on up in time. Um, Westboro BAPTIST anyone? I guess that makes all baptists freaks.

Hmm, how about Jim Baker and Jimmy Swaggart? Affairs and buying hookers. Oh boo-hoo.

Ted Haggard? Let's beat the gay out of them. OH NOOOOO, now who did he screw?

I guess that means all religious whackos are perverts who like little girls, gay men, and protesting at funerals. hehehehhe, you people really, really do crack me up.

Yep, Einhorn whatever his name was a freak. Given the era, he was probably also tripping like a madman since he was 'head hippie' of Philly.

Come on. Be serious. I get that posters in this sewer of a forum like to make everything partisan, but aren't you ever ashamed of jumping on a single incident and generalizing it in a way that demonizes an entire group of people?

And I'm by NO MEANS saying that this is the only example. People do this with to criticize conservatives on this forum all the time, too.

You don't ever get tired of the "Us-vs.-them" mentality? Because there is no "us". And there is no "them".

No, it never get old for those folk.
Funny, as I am scrolling through a thread, and I see who has posted, I can predict what that poster is going to say on any given subject.

Why does Earth day have to be political. We should all want to take care of the place we live.

It is political because liberal freaks want others to pay for their wacky schemes. If you came up with a crazy idea and fully funded it yourself, nobody would care. When you tell (not ask) others that they MUST pay for your insane ideas, then you will see a great deal of understandable resentment.

The lesson should be: If you do not want your ideas criticized, stay out of other people's pockets.
