I don't epect perfection either. But I do not expect:

1. Avowed communists

3. People who believe in forced sterilizations!!!
4. People who believe that Chavez's take over of the TV stations was a good thing.
5. People who aren't accusing white people of polluting black peoples homes.
6. People who pay their taxes before they call themselves holding me to that standard.
7. People who when told by a student (minor) that they had gay sex with a grown man, don't tell them to just wear a condom not report it to the police or parent!!!!!!!


SURELY YOU HAVE THE SAME STANDARDS OF COMMON DECENCY....RIGHT???
I do have standards of common decency. One of those standards of common decency is to try my best to find out the truth before I condemn someone based on hearsay. For example, if I hear on Plains Radio someone saying terrible things about Obama's newest appointee, I will try to find out the truth of the matter, instead of accepting the Plains Radio comments at face value.

I took Rezko off the list - but just because I don't know very much about that situation. He could be a crook. The fact that he's on this list makes me think he's probably OK, but since I don't know that - he's off.
... Seriously ?! You honestly think that list represents "good people" ????

That post just rocketed you to the top of the kook power rankings list.

The facts on these people are already known to be true....not hearsay.

So what is your objection to being critical of them?

Like it or not, we're all stuck with this non-sense until someone stands up and questions what is going on. Unfortunately everytime someone does we hear how they are right wing, or racist, or on the attack. But remember who said he would "call them out."

Excellent synopsis by the OP!! Kudos. Just hope you don't say that in public or someone may call you out.

No kidding! They have seen, and experienced life under those regimes, and they recognize the signs.
