but your whole leftist thing is, um, a red herring
It has nothing to do with anything. Raoul is not your identified patient, nor am I, nor is any sane baseline american. Just as FallwellAndFriends, or Pinochet don't represent 'rightists'
Unfortunately, the political perspectives of those who disagree with you are more subtle than your argumentative fallacies. I say unfortunately, because if they were, you would actually be engaged in discourse instead of linguistic, er, self-stimulation here. There is a difference beetween your whipping 'dumb as' post, and those you try to tie to it.
I suppose its worth your time if you enjoy getting nowhere. Yer call, though.
