Id, I just read the posts you linked to involving zurdo and Country Bob. Unbelievable! It saddens me to no end to think that these people can post that kind of tripe and believe that they won't be recognized as seething anti-Semites. And the old paranoid rant "The Jews run the media, the banks, the entertainment business....and want to run the world"......well it's pathetic. How come no one over on the mod suad is challenging that guy? Maybe because many over there agree with him? I've been pretty disgusted by the rapid reactionary posts over there. In the few times I tried to call people on their hysterical rants (i.e. it's a democrat conspiracy, stealing the election, blah blah blah) or point out the hypocrisy (according to them, Nixon and Reagan did nothing wrong or unconstitutional), I've gotten pummeled by personal attacks and incredible defensiveness. It's as though this somehow feels personal to them and honestly, I don't get it. I'm certainly not a big fan of Al Gore, and I have a hard time understanding why ANYONE would be so passionate about a nothing like GW Bush (who will be our first Special Ed President, if you don't count Reagan). So it has to be about something other than logic... Dr.Id@likethissideoftheporchbetter.com
