People who would happily kill you and yours because you don't bow down
to the right god getting shredded- yes, that is worth watching.

I'll bet you'd find you have a lot in common with them, Dave, if you got to
know them. You're off to a good start: you even like the same kinds of
movies!

No, nothing in common.

Believe it or not, there are some people who have demonstrated, again
and again, that they have forfeited the right to live in the community
of men.

Lets just label this group 'people who will kill you for not obeying
islam, people who will throw acid in the face of girls for the crime
of going to school, people who will kill their own daughter for being
raped'.


Dave

You have to remember Dave, that the Ed Huntresses of the world
feel that really, all that is necessary is for them to get a chance to
sit down a talk with people like the Taliban, or the Nazis, and a
common ground can be found. As far as they are concerned, the real
problem was that George Bush wasn't willing to ask what we had done to
make them so upset as to act out as they did.

All seriousness aside, it would seem that apparently, progressive
hold no beliefs strongly enough to refuse to compromise or to defend.
And because of that, and the all too human tendency to think of others
as oneself, they seem incapable of grokking the idea that someone may
actually mean it when they say "Death to the Infidels." That it isn't
some kind of colorful metaphor, they really do mean "Convert or Die!"

We will drink no whiskey before its nine.
It's eight fifty eight. Close enough!
