I was going to post something along those lines back to him. But then I realized that the irony of that situation would be totally lost on him.Quote:

I suppose what we are all really talking about are stereotypes in general, not just racism.
A stereotype would be me thinking that all Liberals are dirty, tree-huggin', pot smokin', acid takin', commune livin', tie-dye wearin', Birkenstock wearin', Dead listenin', Hippies. Not all Liberals fit this description, but some do. Therefore all Liberals must be dirty Hippies right?
Way to take the higher ground there Chuck :laugh:Quote:

Well I'm not condeming either one of you.
Chuck, how could you take my comment about Starbucks as an accusation that you were a racist?
Just a little defensive there Fella'
Now please explain to me the flaw of the assertions in:

Sometimes an ass need to be called an ass. I don't think it was the Starbucks reference that is linked to racism, but you know that don't you? I may be a bit defensive, but I don't like anyone accusing me of being racist. Sounds like a good thing to be defensive about to me.Quote:

I have not accused you of being a right wing extremist.
That is what they are. You can twist my words however you see fit.
But at the end of the day they will still be right wing extremists
No, not all fundamentalist's Christians are bigots. Only all Fundamentalist
Christians that Identify with the KKK are!
I hope that clears things up for you!
The KKK may be associated with "right wing" now, but it most certainly didn't start out that way.Quote:

In the end, it doesn't matter what wing they are in. They are nut jobs. And the fact that they may or may not currently associate with the Republican party does not mean that all Republicans are racists or in the KKK, or whatever.
What a wonderful segway!Quote:

As badly as you want to accuse me of implying you are a racist, the reality is I didn't! That argument is null and void.
Chill-Pill Chuck :laugh:
I read the link. A book about a bunch of morons with relgious ties who believe in some of the same racist crap the Klan has been stirring up for years. They are no more right wing tradtionalist thinkers than Barack Obama is. They say things that might appeal to someone who thinks to the right who isn't paying attention, just like some people like the Weather Underground and Black Panthers are radicals on the left who might say something that a libreal might agree with.Quote:

I am sick and tired of the left trying to portray people who might be right of center in their beliefs as somehow being racist. God knows they cant come up with a better debate than that?
In today’s world they are overwhelmingly right wingQuote:

All I have to say is in this clusterfu<k of accusations and counter accusations about the clan is,

I hope this metaphor doesn't go over your head as well! ;)
