My position is that those comments hurt Conservatives and justify some claims from the left. I read things that one could expect to see on a Leftist web site; things that made me consider whether or not I should be here myself. I understand from some posts last week that there are plenty of sites for the zealots among us with all the answers, so I wish they would go there, and leave this place to reasonable people.
You appear to be exposing a little "leftist elitism" with your closing thought.
