Oh, you don't have a problem with taking Mormons to task for their Mormonsim, but you get butthurt when someone takes you to task for your slavish devotion to the Democratic party. You're in the same boat, just different rows, lady.


Amen! This is similar to what leftists mean by "open-mindedness" or "tolerant". You're only open-minded if you agree with them.

Who said anything about being "butthurt"? I'm simply commenting on the obvious.

Are we talking about the "Left-wing bogeyman" that killed 20 million Russians/Ukranians, starved to death 30 million Chinese, and almost brought us to the brink of nuclear destruction? Is this the same Left-wing threat that doesn't allow for free elections in Cuba? Vietnam? The same one that attempted to change the Venezuelan constitution? Do you not remember the Berlin wall? Don't you see the ChiCom oppression going on within its own borders and in Tibet? What are you? Fecking retarded? 25? Both?

Religion is better than left-wing Liberalism.

Speaking of retarded, you just have to stop confusing "big C communism" and totalitarianism with progressive secular democracy. Left of center thinking in the US is on the right of much of Europe and is light years from communism.

Since no democrat or anyone on the left of US politics has anything to do with the ideals of say Stalinism or Maoism (it sounds hilarious to even say it out loud), you are just fighting a fantasm. There is nothing there!
