[Vision2020] Say What?

Mon Mar 29 15:06:45 PDT 2010

I'm sorry, Roger, that you're disappointed.  But I'm even sorrier that you would not condemn Bachmann's remarks below, her past diatribes, and the inflammatory, hate-filled shouts of so many of the Tea Partyers.  Further, it's unfortunate to me that you're unable, or, as I suspect, publicly unwilling, to grasp the difference between Sarah Palin's apparent need to get through a friendly audience talk by writing things like "energy" and "taxes" on her hand and Barack Obama's use of TelePrompTers (looks weird, but that's the AP Style standard for the word!) during complex, detailed, and policy-filled speeches.  Please consider that.  Your failure to distinguish between those two examples, which you brought up, tends to make you appear less well-informed and even-handed than I understand you to be.

As for my being a leftist, I can imagine that a good number of Moscow's liberals would scoff at any such idea.  I know I would.  I'm a pro-life, pro-business, Biblically conservative Democrat, but it appears that despite the modifiers, "Democrat" is what you seem to find synonymous with "leftist."  Besides, any evangelical Christian who reveres Scripture and cares about the Gospel ought to object to Christ Church doctrine and practice.  In fact, doing so myself is undeniably a conservative thing for me to do.

> I am disappointed. Although a  leftist, you usually show more restraint ( except where Christ Church is concerned) than most of the rest of the left wing. The Tea Party movement iis no more bigoted( probably less ) than those on the left. Both the right and the left spend too much time on name calling. People on the left make fun of  Palin for taking notes on her hand. Those on the right do the same about Obama's use of the teleprompter, Palin is called an idiot, but I would bet she knows how to correctly pronounce Corpsman. Fox news spent a way too much time on an making a big deal of Reid puting his arm around Pelosi. A big  waste of air time.Why don't both sides just discuss the issues without the personnel insults.

In a few years, when this country begins to recognize the anti-Obama forces for what they are -- namely, devious fearmongers bent on destroying the man even if they take down many of our country's principles in the process -- Michele Bachmann will look like the combination of snake-oil salesman, Joseph McCarthy, King Herod, and Chicken Little that she really is.

But it will.  Someday, Bachmann, Palin, McConnell, Boehner, the Tea Party movement, and the hysterically bigoted anti-Obama forces they represent will be revealed, and the U.S. will find itself in a state of deep embarrassment that it ever listened to them -- a conclusion the rest of the world will have reached long before.
