Hehehe! Good point :-)

It appears that riverman went fishing Frank, so it falls on you to
enlighten us who do not see it. I would appreciate your vision of
what
is so funny. TnT

Well, it's just that you take Moyers to task for conveniently and
simplistically stating that you're "all" wrong, then you turn right
around
and use Moyer's example to make a broad, sweeping statement about
liberals
and their "thinking" yourself! If you're going to accuse Moyers of
simplistically lumping people into one pile, then you really ought to
avoid
doing the same thing yourself, at least in the very next sentence ;-)

Reviewing what I said, was that " a lot of liberals" not "all
liberals." Also I was refering to specific statements made by Moyer
regarding fundementalist Christians, and heartily endorsed by the
Hollywood left who have an apparent vitrolic hadred of the FC's. I
personally doubt that all liberals would endorse this hadred, and
actually would find it abhorent, if they trully understood what some of
their spokesmen were advocating.

I do appreciate your willingness to be open Frank, and to explain to me
my foopahs. If it sounded to you like I was saying all, I would agree
that brush is to wide. However it does appear that there are certain
voices in this neighborhood who seem to find Moyers statement
acceptable, and are also seemingly unwilling to repudiate them.

This concerns me if it represnts a deepening divide between reasonble
voices. I would on this point hope that I am totally wrong. I would
also maintain that this very prevailing attitude is probably what the
FC's sense from the liberal establishment, which causes the FC's to
seek advocates on the Right, and resulted in the recent Nov vote
outcome. Continuing hostility from the left, will not endear the FC's
to the liberal cause. If the liberal trully desires to establish any
inrodes into the FC camp, he might try an olive branch instead of ROFL.
