Putting it into context in this instance is on par with anyone who says, “well, no offense, BUT...” before following up with “your wife is ugly/I hate (racial epithet here)/down with jews/etc”

I hardly think the people on these boards taking direct quotes and drawing obvious conclusions about the nature of those who made them somehow equates us to the individual discussed. Further implying that makes somehow makes me a Liberal is pretty classless, too. I can’t think of a nastier insult

Accordng to experts, “Pat Buchanan” is an anagram for “jew hating pundit well past his relevance”

First of all these are not obvious conclusions. They are absurd twisting of meaning. Secondly, I never equated you to Pat Buchanan. Pat Buchanan is a very intelligent and well spoken individual. I said that the tactic of hurling accusations of hate and bigotry because you don't like a person's position is what liberals do. Or perhaps you haven't been around long enough to hear what is said about people who oppose gay marriage, or affirmative action, or any number of other liberal causes by those who champion them. And by choosing to use that tactic you act like a liberal. No equating necessary.

Further implying that makes somehow makes me a Liberal is pretty classless, too. I can’t think of a nastier insult

Can't you? Perhaps you should try harder.

There, now I knew you could do it.
