Do they? Any evidence to support that assertion?

When did I say that? If I did, I was joking, but I don't remember ever saying that.

Edit - Oh, "you all," no, it's not okay in a serious debate. But very few literally think that.

That's my point. You can't label yourself as a certain word (because the same word encompasses modern and classical) and then cite the other definition of that word to prove how great you are

Indeed I am slow with right wing logic. I tend to err more on the side of facts. That will make me forever unpopular with right wingers. I take pride in that.

I don't believe you did, shorebaby did, or at least implied it by saying liberals support the USSR, Cuba, and China.

This thread drifted far away from the issue of the Saudi woman being beheaded for being a witch. BTW, It's not only in the Koran. The Bible OT also says; "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." That is why so many people were burned as witches in Christian countries in centuries past.

No, not right wing logic, just plain old logic. Print it out and read it before you go to sleep tonight. The last 3 pages should do. I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually.

Actually, shorebaby was not trying to say liberals were communists, shorebaby was simply demonstrating the absurdity of the OP's premise. Sounds like you agree.

You can thank right wingers for that. They want to distract from the fact that the people who carried out this horrible execution are conservatives. It is too embarrassing for them.

And Fidel Castro is a lefty.

By the way did you figure it out yet?

Clearly extremists from both groups have a lot in common.
