"The liberal is five degrees to the left on most social issues.  Ten degrees to the right if it effects him personally." -Phil Ochs, from Love Me, I'm a Liberal

I think calling anyone a scumbag (or a condom) when they're in mourning is in bad taste.  But thank Allah for the ability to say it.  Whether we like it or not, we have this damn freedom of speech and folks are sometimes going to say shit we disagree with.  That's why I love having Rush's and Hannity's and Pat B.'s and other such folks with completely different brains that I have.  It makes us all smarter to have an opposing view.

Anyone who's on the Conservative side that is still participating in this room has my respect and admiration.  It takes thick skin and big plums to hang out with all us pinkos and not get offended and storm off in a huff.
