Mike, quite a bit of stuff like this is deliberate disinformation, so that people like you will start threads about it on message boards. But as long as it serves your purpose you probably don't care.Few things make me laugh more than a Rightist supporter lecturing others on 'deliberate disinformation'. From McCarthy onwards, the Right has made deliberate disinformation a bloody art form and has Right you are. As I said before, conservatism's major debate tactic is blaming others for what they - right wingers - are doing. What you have pointed out is a first-rate example. Another is, because conservatism is the philosophy of bigotry and discrimination, they have to claim that it is they who are picked on and discriminated against. This is where "liberal media bias" comes from even though as you have said the "right" (who are not right) have "found more tools for disseminating it throughout mainstream American media channels than there are scales on a serpent's back." This is also where the ludicrous "discrimination against white people" comes from, esp. against the white male. It's the classic playground bully tactic, that displays even in small children; the bully will beat up on others, but when caught will always begin sobbing that he was the victim, the other kid started it. If the bullied kid hits back, that's when all hell will really break loose, with the bully crying that he just had to 'defend' himself from the abuse being leveled at him, when he was innocently minding his own business. Abusive spouses often behave the same way, citing themselves as the victimized one who had to defend themselves against abuse by their victim. What's disturbing and dismaying about this tactic is the success rate it enjoys; often the bully has learned to be so persuasive that many times he'll be believed out of hand, sometimes even if all the evidence suggests otherwise. The Right has honed this disgusting behavior to an art form themselves, and it's shameful how much of the country continues to be taken in by it.

If you think I am bullying you, worov, save up your pennies, buy yourself a good Jewish lawyer, and sue me.

Religion is a hell of a drug. I think you mean 'his religion' whatever that may be since it certainly isn't Christianity.
