we both talk to ruff and he is not evil. On some issues he is quite the moderate. Sarman keeps proving that he is a shill for the islamo-fascists even if he really isnt one himself. No other way to explain the holocaust denial stuff, the constant attacks on nadine which use language not befitting a gentleman, the america bashing at every turn whether its FP or the economy or social issues, this guy hates this country as much as you love it.

Here's a concrete example of the different ways religions are treated in public in the US. Hugh Hewitt (conservative radio talk show host) had a conversation with Larry O'Donnell (liberal tv show host) after Larry O'Donnell railed against Mitt Romney and his religion on the air, calling Mormonism "a weird Joseph Smith cult": HH: Would you say the same things about Mohammed as you just said about Joseph Smith? LO’D: Oh, well, I’m afraid of what the…that’s where I’m really afraid. I would like to criticize Islam much more than I do publicly, but I’m afraid for my life if I do. HH: Well, that’s candid. LO’D: Mormons are the nicest people in the world. They’re not going to ever… HH: So you can be bigoted towards Mormons, because they’ll just send you a strudel. LO’D: They’ll never take a shot at me. Those other people, I’m not going to say a word about them. HH: They’ll send you a strudel. The Mormons will bake you a cake and be nice to you. LO’D: I agree. HH: Lawrence O’Donnell, I appreciate your candor. hughhewitt.townhall.com
