OK It Is _A_ Conservative Position
Robert — (archived)

You're still trying to obfuscate the issues with all that petty hair-splitting. The irresponsible shrieks of "treason!" are emitted only by conservatives, and by only some of them. There's no contradiction there, you're just trying to throw up an obfuscatory barrage of chaff.

To try once again to bring you back to the point: You and Gary and gbaikie are out there all alone. You claim to represent a mainstream conservative view, but I still don't see conservatives rallying to your cause. The fact is, you represent an extremist conservative view, the sort of thing we hear only from whackjobs like Ann Coulter. It's a level of extremism matched only by, for example, Pat Robertson calling for the assassination of Venezuela's President. Maybe you think you're in good company, but in fact you're in the company of some of the most reprehensible extremists on the Right.

Most Zone conservatives, to their credit, denounced Robertson, and distance themselves from people like Coulter. Do you really expect them to approve of the extremist tactic of screaming "treason!" at political opponents?

Seems to me that now you've gone beyond just insulting Liberals, to insulting most Conservatives too. Are you sure you don't want to stop now before digging the hole so deeply you can never get out of it?
