Got news for ya: although I am a native New Yorker, I also maintain residences in North Carolina (Mr's W's home) and Utah (our vacation/one-day retirement home),and have for many years. That's when I wasn't busy working and living in places like Florida, Montana, Idaho and Nebraska.
You should have asked before you assumed that I have never left New York City. Truthfully, while I've been all over "fly over country" I have yet to meet anyone in those parts that holds such narrow world views as you two gentlemen (I wouldn't characterize what Francis holds as a view: he's merely a parrot), and if I did, I'm sure they wore "White Power" T-shirts and shaved their heads.
The Nazi comment, contrary to popular belief, does not mean I've lost the argument, it is intended to present a recognizable name to something that would otherwise go unnoticed by otherwise good people; that lockstep idological orthodoxy, militancy in the pursuit of that orthodoxy, the reflexive name calling, and the inability to compromise on an issue when it bumps up against that orthodoxy, are all classic symptoms of someone laboring under the curse of rigid totalitarian thinking.
I look forward to the day when your kind is finally consigned to the rubbish heap of history and we can go back to true, republican prinicples unencumbered by people who want to be everyone's Mommy and Daddy (on both sides).
I too look forward to the day when we return to true republican principles, those are the principles of conservatism. Rudy isn't it, rudy will set conservatism back for a long time should he be our nominee.
Cute, referring to people as white skinheads, typical of liberals.
After decades of big government liberalism, conservative America has compromised her traditional values and beliefs long enough. In the end, conservatism will prevail. Conservatism will triumph over liberalism
Your comments about the Taliban, nazism and skinhead extremism, are a liberal effort to change the subject matter of the debate. Actually, there is nothing more revealing then a NYCity liberal like yourself, preaching leftwing ideology on the webs premier conservative website, and taking yourself seriously. Carry on clown.
I look forward to the day when you liberals get the hell out of the party of Lincoln and Reagan, and return to your roots in the Democratic Party.
Absolutely an oustanding post.
Deserves a standing ovation.
Well done.
And MOST people here agree with you, regardless of what others may say.
I actually wear a Stetson and pointy boots cowgirl... and I am not interested in some politically correct U.N. world view of a liberal in the big city...
