Yes, more vudoo commentary. If you oppose illegal immigration and demand immidiate action on our border so we retain our soveigrnty and prevent another terror attack then we are anti immigrant and will lose votes. Screw you Medved!
To: MadIvan
Practical approach = compromise
Don't we have free speech in this country?

Obviously, the future of the conservative movement and of the Republic itself requires GOP recruitment of more Latinos, Blacks and gaysRecruitment of gays? How many of them are there, and how many bother to vote?

Yeah, I agree
Its funny to hear the new line from the RINO's. If we don't start courting the homosexual vote then we are doomed!
Some times you have to wonder what these clowns are smoking.

Don't we have free speech in this country?Of course we do. Nobody is suggesting that the government lock Coulter up for the stupid things she said.
Her right to say it is in no way infringed by, nor does it preclude, our right to say that she's a self-inflated moron who does the conservative agenda more harm than good by behaving like a left-wing stereotype of a knuckle-dragging conservative bigot.

We do. And we have the choice to listen or to ignore. Conservatives need people to listen right now to logic and reason...not childish comments by loose cannons.

When it comes to salesmanship, I state things as plainly and and as openly as I see them. Conservatism is the opposite of liberalism. Thus, I could care less if skeptics and moderates like us. Those with weak or uncertain convictions are really closet liberals. We conservatives are true believers. Michael Medved thinks we come on too strong. I'm afraid we can't avoid offending liberals unless we agree to become them.

We don't have free speech but the libs do and their free speech includes threats of bodily harm against our President.

Bless this man for his cogent appraisal of the current situation.
Hope his computer doesn't melt down with vile emails directed at him daring to have an opinion.
Frankly, movement is the right word for those demanding an unattainable purity....I'll leave the kind of movement to the imagination.

Nobody is suggesting that the government lock Coulter up for the stupid things she said. You think she should go to rehab?

Medved is pompous, arrogant, and self-delusional (he believes in Bigfoot,...God he's not so sure of, but Bigfoot,...no problem).
Bush is Hitler, our Marines are savage murderers, America is worse than Pol Pot's regime, but no one can make a joke about an effeminate tweeb who is better known as the Silky Pony and Breck Girl. Especially when the joke was merely about lib PC doctrine!

I don't think honesty is the problem. The problem is that there are a group of people - albeit a minority - who are very willing to call in the Inquisition against any perceived heresy. A political party that requires a mass electorate for victory is not going to get it if they are constantly reducing to an ever more distilled minority.

I'm tired of Republicans walking on eggshells so not to offend. Ann is always a breath of fresh air. (and, MadIvan, you and Ann have a similar style of humor. I am suprised at your take on all this. Perhaps it's your "proper British gentleman" side?)
To: red meat conservative
I quit listening to Medved quite a while ago when it became apparent he prefers some kind of system where only party members vote and they vote the way they're told.

as she deployed the forbidden slur Forbidden? By who? When? I need the list of forbidden words of which he speaks. I also need the list of groups that can't be offended. I don't want to make a mistake and wind up in political re-education rehab.
We can't win with people who think this way. All we'll do is slowly bleed to death by playing the Left's game by the Left's rules.
To: Doc Savage
Medved is pompous, arrogant, and self-delusional (he believes in Bigfoot,...God he's not so sure of, but Bigfoot,...no problem).I've read "Hollywood Versus America" - he came across as none of those things, in particular, he is an observant Jew. Evidence to the contrary would be interesting to see.
Bush is Hitler, our Marines are savage murderers, America is worse than Pol Pot's regime, but no one can make a joke about an effeminate tweeb who is better known as the Silky Pony and Breck Girl. Especially when the joke was merely about lib PC doctrine!
That's not what Medved said. However, your lack of calm on the subject goes some way to prove his point.
