Sandra, no sense in letting the facts get in the way of the radical
right rhetoric. Those who disagree are all communists, God-haters.
On the other hand, we're all a team, accepting all of the same views.
How else could the Bush ideology win, unless it was black (liberalism,
communism, atheism) against white (truth, justice, and the American
way)?
And Tom's original post about Rush's racist comments - which Crabtree
supported without a blink, just like he supported the racist rants of
No Weatherman - is smoothly swept under the rug. What's a little
racism when what is at stake is God Himself? Or the pockets of my
friends?
