When Pat Robertson makes a statement that God has already called the
2004
election in favor of GWB, he's dismissed as a lovable old kook, not a
spokesman.
When Anne Coulter accuses everyone left of center in the country of
"treason",
it's defended as freedom of speech.
The right needs to walk carefully. Very easy to trip over a double
standard and
land smack on your nose.
It sounds to me like you are doing the exact same thing you accuse the
"right" of doing. Many conservatives find the right wing radio host
boring
and predictable, and do not listen to them, but still consider
themselves
conservatives.
I disagree, since I work with and count as personal friends many who
consider themselves conservatives who consider Rush a buffoon. I'm
certain that Chuck has a similar experience.
Conversely, there's a number of fools in this group who utter dittospeak
on regular occasions, regular enough to recognize their
Rush/Savage/Coulter political pedigree.
I don't ever listen to any of those people, yet I get accused of parroting
them on a regular basis. Believe it or not, most conservatives can come to
the same opinion all on their own. All you have to do is apply a little
logic and reason to any situation. I'd surmise that *most* conservatives
are left-brained people...and most liberals are right-brained (and sometimes
no-brained) people.
