don't be shocked to find out that AS is a fabricator, liar and shill.

Oh, I'm not.

That's typical of ANY extremist -- whether they be from the right wing, left wing, religious extremists, or whatever.

What's fun to watch is the people who deplore Bush's "your with us or you're against us" are themselves almost always of exactly the same stamp. To AS, anybody who doesn't believe that Kerry is perfection incarnate and Bush is totally evil is themselves totally evil. No nuance, no ability to look at the good and bad on both sides.

No, I'm not surprised. Nor, any longer, am I disappointed -- I know AS well enough to know that she is incapable of rational thought.

But occasionally, it's good for objective moderates like you and me to point out a truth or to, just on the off chance that AS has some ability to think instead of just instinctively reacting.

She's probably beyond hope, but there may be one or two people here who aren't yet. Or there may not.
