Calling E a bigot is really beyond the pale, Neocon, and a poor way to project your disagreement with her points. Let's examine them one at a time. Did Bush Sr or did he not accept millions from the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, leader of one of the most totalitarian societies of the century and the man who comes to mind when the excesses of mind-control cults are remembered? Did Bush Jr. or did he not entertain and satisfy Pat Robertson, whose quotes don't merely suggest, but utterly confirm his complete disregard for the Bill of Rights? Does Bush Jr. retain Olansky, an inerrant-Bible proponent (which Bible, anyway?) as an "ethical consultant"? If the answer to any of the above is "yes", then E should not be pilloried as a bigot merely to divert attention from these hard questions. I would go so far as to say that asking such questions is a civic duty for those of us who are intent upon defending a free republic and protect it from those who would abridge our rights in the interest of a dubious moral conformity! Ceterum censeo that raising these points does not make a hater of Christians or of Christianity. Christians aren't the issue here - those who distort and exploit Christian doctrine and loyalties for the express purpose of amassing power are. Opposing such is not bigoted - it is brave. You should apologize to E, who is showing not the stripes of a bigot but of a patriot. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
