"' So if your daughter publicly wished that someone put rat poison into a Supreme Court Justice's coffee that would be OK with you?'

Sure, as long as she didn't tell an African-American Supreme Court justice to eat a lot of fried and fatty foods and die of heart disease."

Your answer above is one of the exact reasons that I have continued this thread.

So its not OK for liberals to make outrageously rude statements about Justice Thomas, but it IS OK for Ann to make similarly outrageously rude statements about Justice Stevens?

Can you spell h-y-p-o-c-r-i-t-e per chance? Internal logical consistency is supposed to be one thing we have over the liberals, isn't it?

Clear thinking is something we claim over them. That would include being able to draw distinctions, for example the distinction between "apparent inconsistency" and hypocrisy. Another claim we like to make about ourselves is that we don't call names the way the liberals do. For example, we don't leap at the chance to suggest that someone is a hypocrite.

I do note an apparent inconsistency between your calling attention to a distinction conservatives like to draw between themselves and liberals, and the style and rhetorical intent of the very paragraph in which you note it.

I actually have had classroom and clinical work in counseling, and on the basis of that and more than 3 decades experience, I am now wondering if you started this thread to have a conversation, a debate, or a fight. At the lkeast, if you have a point ot make, it looks to me like you want to make it in a very unpleasant way. And I would observe that you don't settle for "asked and answered". When you get a clear response to the question you ask, several times in this thread you attack, not the response, but the responder.

There: a gift! Free counseling. Don't bother to thank me. PLEASE don't bother ....
