So here's another race-obsessed left-wing racist, Foster Kamer of the
left-wing extremist rag "Village Voice",

You can find these cretins everywhere. This kind of bull**** is
standard fare at "Daily Kos" and "Huffington Post". Leftists say this
kind of **** the way most people might cough or clear their throats;
it's simply a reflex, without a shred of thought behind it.

Jeez, George, how's your blood pressure? Why do you bother reading
those things if they get you so upset? It sounds like you're *trying*
to blow a gasket.

This is kind of funny because you claim not to be a right-winger. But
if you look far enough to the right, you'll see where the racists have
gone -- like the big redneck in some southern state who was
interviewed by a documentary filmmaker in 2008, asking him who he'd
vote for, who said "I'm from the South. I ain't votin' fer no ni**er."

They're out there. That isn't the conservatives or the intellectual
right. It's the hard-core knuckle-draggers. Like the caricatures the
right makes of the left, the left tends to make caricatures of the
right.

Does this surprise you? It shouldn't. An ideologue or a mindless
extremist is always a little nutty and kind of vicious. That's what
happens when you depart much from the center.

Notice, for example, how much calmer I am than you. d8-)


That's only because you haven't had the misfortune of having been
engaged with him in a "discussion". If you had you would likely be
resting from your stroke right now. Just for your personal information
you should know he's been blabbing repeatedly that you aren't even a
republican. I tried to tell him you were an old fashioned Rockefeller
republican but he insists you are nothing but a RHINO.

Uh, I believe that's "RINO."

We real Republicans are a dying breed. Ev Dirksen (the apocryphal "A
billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking about
real money.") is not going to be resurrected.

It's Ok. I'll just watch the Tea Party. I think they're trying to
nominate the March Hare-- wasn't he the surprise guest at Alice's tea
party?

"The March Hare will be much the most interesting, and perhaps as this
is May it won't be raving mad -- at least not so mad as it was in
March."

sigh Those characters who are populating the Party now are not
Republicans by any serious meaning of the word. They're a bunch of
backward-looking paleoconservatives. I think they'll be the undoing of
the Party.

When he says
something like that there's no arguing with him. That's what you are,
period! Try this one out for size, he's convinced I'm a dilettante. Me,
a dilettante! Like Dick Martin of Rowan and Martin used to say, "I
didn't know that!".

I wouldn't worry about it. d8-)
