Are you my enemy? Can I not use a nicety? Would you have been happier with
"Hey A*****e!"?
So in your liberal world one is either a friend or an enemy, no middle ground? How tolerant of you.
In point of fact, to me you are meaningless. I merely dispute your claims of tolerance based on what you post.

Lol. I'm far from innocent.
And no, I never said anything you are claiming I said.
It's really hard to have an honest debate when someone dishonestly interprets
what you say. And yes, many claim that their racisim is about politics-- or
religion.
I don't recall anyone claiming you to be innocent. Only you trying to change the direction of this thread. Fail.
You should really read your post prior to posting them before claiming to have not stated or insinuated what you did or did not say.
And yes, it is hard to have a debate with someone who claims that only he can be correct on the subject and provides only his own interpretation of his claims as proof of his stance. Your use of "many" and vague references to others to me provides the proof that you speak only for yourself, without any actual knowledge or authority.

I glad you think I am an entire liberal think tank. That's a compliment when
I am sitting here in my living room with a cat.
Claims of grandeur again. Or lack of reading comprehension. I said you appear to be a MEMBER of a liberal think tank. And it is not a compliment.
Perhaps you should consult you cat before posting.
I guess when you say this you underline the absolute bottom level of this debate. I believe that everyone has value and meaning. That's why we need the social support system we have (although it needs reform), that's why we need to be tolerant of those different then ourselves, and that's why we need to consider the community as well as ourselves in our decisions.
It's much more complex for liberals, whom I believe, think everyone has meaning.
more tolerance of different views from the left.
Governor Cuomo just proved the double standard that the left follows "our views are the only legit ones".
oh and one more thing. Cuomo is RICH and WHITE. I guess because he is a liberal makes
that ok.
Don't worry Governor , New York State's ultra liberal policies have already driven many Conservatives from the state, including me.
That's why NYS has among the highest taxes and unemployment in the country.
It's why upstate is fast becoming a bunch of ghost towns with dwindling populations and crumbling infrastructure.
I love NY but until the state turns itself around politically my tax dollars will be going to a more business friendly state.

If this is what the governor said he's off base here. (Without a direct quote here-- It doesn't appear he said this at all and this whole thread is predicated on a lie.) There are certainly two valid viewpoints on abortion. I remain pro-choice, but, understand there is another side here.
When it comes to tolerance, however, there isn't another side to equality...
Racist views, don't deserve tolerance... Homophobic views don't deserve tolerance... I often see arch-conservatives complaining that their views aren't getting "tolerance" after they say something wildly racist or homophobic...
And how convenient it is that only Liberals get to define what constitutes racism or homophobia.
This was the same NY attorney general who threatened the AIG folks who recieved a bonus with releasing their name so that the public could take matters into their own hands. Imagine an officer of the law threatening someone who was handed a bonus by rousing the hordes and inflaming their ire!!!!!! Yep, a shoe in for gov of NY.
AC is a lowlife. After that US AG is done with CC he will have a great time looking into AC.
Don't be surprised if NY splits into two states as the NYC crowd trumps the rest of the state in elections.
Perhaps knowing what he actually said would help? Then again, probably not. Carry on.

The context of Cuomo’s statement is what he sees as a schism between moderate
and “extreme conservative” Republicans in New York state and around the
country:
“Who are they? Are they these extreme conservatives who are right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay? Is that who they are? Because if that’s who they are and if they are the extreme conservatives, they have no place in the state of New York, because that’s not who New Yorkers are.”
Cuomo added that “moderate Republicans have a place in this state” and noted that he can work with moderate Republicans, as they’ve consistently passed his agenda. Cuomo also broke down more of his main issues with so-called “extreme” conservatives, urging them to “figure out if your extreme conservative philosophy can survive in this state and the answer is no.”
