Ha! LOVED the video! I think the crowd bears a striking resemblance to some of the fringe-nuts on this forum, same level of hysteria, lack of critical thought, and use of circular logic (when any). I imagine the same vacuous stare as well (hopefully better hygiene!). 'Let's strap a fake nose on those un-American, godless, socialist, fornicating libs and burn them at the stake! We're taking our country back! (to the dark ages)'
Good one, Clay! I'll bet every comedian, cartoonist, and humor writer in America (maybe in the western world) is praying that she will be on the ticket in 2012. Talk about easy material! She practically writes it for them!
"It's not about seeing people as individuals, it's not about not judging, it's not about being PC." .... "We all judge, we all hate, we all fear."
--- I couldn't care less about your definition of a libertarian. I DO see people as individuals.... and the bigotry, intolerance, ignorance, and hate that I see you display here regularly is, frankly, very ugly. It may be human nature to judge, even if we wish we didn't quite so much. But we are not all like you. There are many people who do NOT hate other groups of people, but give each individual an opportunity to stand on their own merit. Same goes for fear. That doesn't mean that we never experience those feelings, but automatically feeling them for someone simply because of their race, ethnicity, or religious affiliation is another thing altogether.
Calling someone, whom you don't even know, a self-hater because they married someone of another religious/ethnic background is beyond "not being PC"; it is arrogantly ignorant. What makes you think that you have the insight or the right to judge what may be in the heart and mind of someone else, much less to pass judgement on how they 'should' think because of the ethnic group that they happen to belong to? (one which you, by the way, don't have a clue about)
The way you see the world is very different from what most people experience; I am grateful that you are an aberration.
I certainly hope that you were chuckling as you put me in the same sentence with L4F. Make sure that you drink enough tequila to numb you, you'll need it when I kick your backside for that! ;-)
"Try as ye may Libertarus Minimus, it alludes thee."
--- There is much that "alludes" our so-called libertarian, like the idea that anyone might be able to see another person as an individual and judge them based on their own merits. L4F can never see beyond skin color, ethnicity, religious background, or political party. Laughable, yes. But more than anything, sad.
"I admit that "self-hating himself" was redundant and the consequence of typing fast and being in a hurry. However, the difference between you and me is that I debate the SUBSTANCE and you debate the STYLE."
--- It's the "substance" that everyone is mocking you for, you moronic twit!
"As far as Weiner goes, he is also an idiot. There must be something in the water in DC that turns men into teenagers."
--- Yes, he is an idiot. This is an example of what happens when an otherwise smart man's 'turgid member' prevents the proper flow of blood to his brain. Incredibly stupid....
BTW, that "something in the water" is success, power, and influence - powerful boosters to the male ego and powerfully attractive to women (and that attraction has a evolutionary basis - it can be hard to overcome our biology, sometimes).
You know nothing whatsoever about the thoughts of Jews, or even the thoughts of normal, intelligent, people who don't automatically hate everyone who is different from themselves.

tderng, re: 9:42 post,
Cute.... I don't mind being a target of a bit of clever skewering. BTW, your new avatar is great - can you save the day for us?
Limric, re: 10:29 post,
Couldn't have said it better myself; thanks for making me smile.
