Conversely, is there anything Dr. Keyes can say that the defeatist Obama water-boys and girls won't tear into him for?

No.

They have an irrational hatred for him, IMO, because he is:

  1. Pro-life
  2. Conservative
  3. Black
  4. Independent
  5. Catholic
That's just how I see it.

Don't bother flaming me, "moderates," cause I'm outta here for the night, and perhaps for a while. I'm sickened by what goes on here at this "conservative" board.

Yep that must be it. That must be why the Catholic black conservative Thomas Sowell is so unpopular on this board, and flamed constantly. It sickens me. The hatred of black conservatives, and particularly Catholic black conservatives, is a stain on the honor of this forum. Do you notice how Republican conservative blacks running in primaries seem to attract no interest or support on this forum? Connect the dots.

Catholic

Keyes is not "hated" for being Catholic. He's not hated at all.

This goofy reparations idea has no basis in Catholic theology, in American politics, or especially in conservative thought.

Trust me. A lot of us aren't thrilled to see our fellow Freepers giving the nod to a reparations plan, either.

If you still don't know why people don't like Keyes (HINT: nothing on your list has anything to do with it whatsoever), you will never get it.

Ahh...

So rather than acknowledge the rational arguments that have been made, you revert to calling people that protest Keyes

1) Baby Killers
2) Liberals
3) Racists
4) Stubborn
5) Atheists

Nice.

Not real sure who you're firing at there with that burst, but speaking solely for myself, I'm a "social conservative" who's inlaws are all Catholic, and who's steadfastly supported Alan Keyes for years -- until tonight.
