Non-linear thinking. You mean like liberals who despise the religious right and live in fear of them but then support Palestine over
Israel...


Ron, that's not an example of non-linear thinking any more than not playing tag is an example of PC. You sure are indiscriminate in your use of labels.

As for finding people who 1) are liberal, 2) despise the religious right, and 3)support Palestine over Israel, well, you could probably count them without a calculator. There are, of course, lots and lots of liberals. And there are lots of people, both liberal and not liberal, who despise the religious right. But supporting Palestine over Israel. I don't thing there are many of them at all. Maybe some Arab-Americans. A few oddballs. Not a lot of people. There may be a larger number who think that Palestine sometimes makes a good point in its dealings with Israel, but not to the point of supporting Palestine over Israel. Now, if you take the few people who meet criterion number 3 and eliminate from that group those who don't meet both criteria one and two, you're down to too few to worry about.

As to how those few people could hold those three positions concurrently, I don't find that inherently inconsistent.
