Never said Republicans were saints -- only that their basic
ideological premise is less intrusive and hence less harmful.



Yes, communists were butchers. And yes, I lament all those who weere sent to
the Gulag, shot and persecuted for voicing their ideas. Though the latter is
kind of like what all the right-wingers did to the anti-war crowd this time
round, right?

Care you give a single example of right-wing persecution of any
anti-war "voice?" Let alone "shooting" anyone?

And please spare us the plight of the Dixie Chicks -- they expressed
an opinion and opinions were expressed back.

You do realize, incidentally that most of the anti-war activities were
organized and fundeD by ANSWER -- a well-known communist advocacy
group who supports the regime in North Korea?

Tell me you do know this?

If you did perhaps you'd stop bleating on about the notion that
current-day liberalism has nothing in common with communism or
socialism...

Of course it does.
