The reason that there are not really any Left Wing nuts is that most of the Left don't have that kind of personality. In general they believe in peace, love and inclusion, not hatred, exclusion and violence, although I am sure there are exceptions, such as Rev Wright.
Never once did I wish anyone in the Bush Administration any harm. For one thing, if something happened to W, the Dick would REALLY be in charge, and that would have been much worse.
what a load of shit. so much for not hating and inclusion on your part.

OH, there's you, and probably the KKK, you know, people like you. And, I can say the above without even feeling a little bit bad about it - you've been around here long enough - I've read your opinions on race, disability, gender, immigration, etc., - IMO you are one of the most inhumane, heartless people I never ever want to meet. Expression of opinion is a good thing - differing opinions create new matrices of ideas BUT, when you start supporting terrorism, Trevor, you become a terrorist. But, in your case, that's sort of OK; at least we know you're sitting on your ass somewhere making useless noise, and not actually killing people. Defending that man by saying "Well, people threatened The Shrub so, it's OK to pray for Obama to die and go to Hell." is fallacious - how do you think Jesus would consider your attitude? I don't even care that he prays to some nonexistent God to kill somebody - it's that he's using a satellite soapbox and trying to activate some knucklehead(s) out there to "Do God's Work." Same as it ever was...

If yes, could you explain your trips to Mexico seeking medical care? After explaining away that, which I'm sure I already have your answer on, please confirm that you would avow to use only the new, much more affordable public health system proposed under ObamaCare - and that you would affirm you would never again travel to Mexico in search of lower cost providers - even if you know they are there.
If no, explain why not.
Translation: Let's see if I can divert the topic by pointing fingers at the person who brought up my own hypocrisy.

Beaker wrote:Really. That's a mighty high bar. Perhaps you should have a look at this video. See any hatred being preached from the pulpit there? Yes? No? Beaker, I'm an atheist preacher's kid. The church I grew up in was nothing like what is shown on TV. I don't have the patience to watch preachers now. I watched the clip of Jeremiah Wright. Some of what he said is out there (the government knew about Pearl Harbor?) but some of it isn't (Uh, Tuskegee??) and I have to say that a lot of what Wright said isn't that far off-base. I watched the video three times. Take the delivery as you will; it is charismatic. The pastor who prayed for Obama's death is probably a charismatic speaker too. I think I'll stop here. It's late, and Jonesy is trying to sit on the laptop. Go ahead and shoot down everything I've said. Good night.

No, you didn't. I've never heard Jeremiah Wright preach, but as far as I know, he didn't call for the death of George W. Bush. As for the rest of of it, I'm going to claim ignorance. YES. Ignorance. Just as I didn't care what John McCain's, or in the past, John Kerry's, or G.W. Bush's, or Al Gore's, or (insert any former candidate for president) 's pastor said, I don't really care what Barack Obama's pastor said. No, really. I don't care. Double standard? Maybe. Perhaps I only wake up when a pastor wishes for the death of another human being (how Christian!).

Pastors are different when they bring politics to the pulpit. Forgive me for holding pastors to a higher standard.
