In the post where you described your several reasons for hating--or shall I say disliking--Alan Keyes, I did not observe one shred of evidence to support your case. If it pleases you, please support your case with evidence, and cite how it is different from most other politicians or even most other posters to FR.

One MIGHT argue that your post smacked of an intolerable, know-it-all tone, which alienates more people than it attracts. I happen to understand it is your opinion, though, so I want to give you an opportunity to explain it using something other than invective.

Excuse me ?   Shall we now discuss the use of invective ?

I didn't inject that word into our conversation.   You did.

Perhaps you should "support your reasons for doing so with evidence."

< ...your post smacked of an intolerable, know-it-all tone... >

In other words, we are to regard Mr. Keyes just the way you regard
Mr. Keyes, and then we are to shut up.   Correct ?   End of subject.

Gosh, it may be difficult for you to understand this, but there's actually
more than one opinion out here about who best promotes conservative
values in our culture.

We agree on the objective premise that Alan Keyes is right on the issues.   I said that.   Maybe you forgot.

We disagree on subjective matters.   You find him "amiable" and
"unflappable".

I find him a self-aggrandizing wack, in the tradition of Al Sharpton.

Nonetheless, were I a resident of Illinois, I'd vote for him.   Despite
his inflated ego, he's still a better choice than Obama.

It's beyond me why Illinois Republicans couldn't do better than this,
but oh well.

By the way, Outlaw, Mr. Keyes prefers to be addressed as "Dr. Dream".
