[Vision2020] Proof Positive the ID GOP Doesn't Care About ChildrenOnce They're Out of The Womb

Fri Apr 1 21:29:31 PDT 2011

I just want to add that this does little to make me think that your name is not "Doug."

Anyone who thinks that talk of slavery should be tolerated is either an idiot or a member of a radical right wing group. 

Or in Roger's case, a member of the local Republican party which needs to tolerate bigots in order to get votes.

And the thought -- that Roger and "Donovan" seem to have -- that calling someone an "idiot" is offensive yet talk of slavery is to be tolerated because it is covered by free speech is ... well, idiotic.

Sorry I'm not more creative with my insults ;-)

You're just going to have to tolerate me calling you a liar.

There simply is no other way to "correct" my "wrongful thinking."
