As usual, absurdities and distortions hurled down from an ivory tower
fantasyland.

Thanks for providing an example of a typical left-wing loon. Do you support 
defending the U.S. against terrorist attacks?.

So we mustn't say a critical word about the Messiah Obama although it was 
perfectly OK  to spew ridicule, anger and hate at Bush for 8 years and even 
now, after the election, against Palin? You break me up. Your arguments are 
as hilarious as your justifications for going around town naked as jay 
bird.
