This blade cuts both ways. I do not espouse any of the things you said in your post, but for all the predjudice surrounding some of the "discussion" I have seen lately I may as well. I'm actually surprised that here has not been more violence between the opposing views for all the hatred and rabid rhetoric being thrown about from both sides of the "debate". YepWe Are Right! Wow................
The problem I have with your theory is that paleo conservatives have very much distanced themselves from these extremist elements, while neos have embraced them within what appears to be their voter base to the rest of us standing outside the fray. Just an observation. I chalked it up to them hiding behind your flag, but then I read this...
YepWe Are Right!
That doesn't really work for America, or for the constitution. It only works for the me me me's having a mid life crisis. That was never what the republican party was about, but what a shame to see it laid so low. Everyone who disagrees with you isn't a liberal. Your behavior is symptom of your party illness.

I occasionally take the time to see what kind of nuts are out there. It can also make for some interesting shock topics around the water cooler.
Is there a BBQ flavored ice cream? I don't think I'd like that.

Last time I checked, no. 'Twas an attempt at something random enough that it would make people stop and smile. Or just shake their head.

Must have worked.

Alexus, I gather from your comment that you didn't read the entire thread. Otherwise there would probably be more substance to your post.

Am I wrong?

I find your statement particularly interesting in view of your posts on other threads about killing cops.

A decidedly RW website, nonetheless.

Did you create an account and profile at Stormfront? I have read their site too, but don't have a "profile" and membership there.

He also ranted about "zionist" conspiracies, a hatred which is shared by left wing and right wing whackos.
