This is the same discussion we have had many times. It is not my job to call out or crit. all crazy statement on the left just as I don't expect you to call out/crit. all crazy statements on the right. The difference is that any time you see a statement by anyone on the left you don't like, you start a thread and at some point state that you haven't seen anyone who you think is on the right calling that person out and then you say that the right must agree with the crazy statement.

So should I assume that you must believe that crazy statement Backmann said linking the bird flu and Obama?

(of course not)
"You defended West recently"

I said West's comments do more harm than good, and that he says kooky things. I did say that I agree with West on most major issues and that he is a patriot, but I do not defend everything he says.

Here is the difference Paul...while I fully agree with you that I can't rightly paint all liberals with the same brush, I am 100% confident that liberals spend WAY more time on personal attacks, and way less time having an honest discussion of the issues. There are hate-mongers on my side, no doubt. But it's not nearly as pervasive as it is on your side. Because we have the better argument on the issues, we don't need to launch attacks.

Starts with Obama. There has never been a president as petty or vindictive or divisive, there has never been a president with so much disdain for those on the other side. Bush didn't call liberals terrorists or racists, he didn't say they "cling" to their beliefs because they are warped, he didn't say liberals should sit in the back of the bus, I could go on and on and on...

There isn't a Republican congressman in Washington, who is the equivalent of Alan Greyson. Why is that? Grayson said that Republicans' idea of healthcare is that we want sick people to die.
