Here is what Kevin Graham wrote right after the 2010 midterm elections:

And because we're a country of racists and idiots who demand instantaneous change only when the President is Democrat, black, or both, you refuse to understand the problem on its own terms and choose to use the darky as the scape goat and regurgitate the idiotic talking points, like the script Paul Rand just ripped off from some Right Wing think tank. And yes, I've seen the signs at the tea parties, up close and personal. Never seen so many pissed off white racists in all my life. The Tea Party is at least 97% white. And that is a fair representation of "we the people"?? The Tea Party was formed and funded by a few Right Wing billionaires just weeks after Obama took office. Coincidence? It took off before Obama had the chance to do anything wrong, but they already knew what they were going to blame him for long before he stepped foot in office. The beauty of the deception is that it worked. They actually have millions of ignorant Americans thinking Obama is to blame for our current plight. That his failed attempt to offer government health insurance was the reason Banks decided to keep the bail out money and not give it back to the taxpayers in the form of loans. If Obama tried to force the banks to do what they said they'd do, the Right was trying to use this as an example of a socialistic dictator trying to use government to coerce private enterprise. What a bunch of idiots.

That's quite a rant from Kevin. He 's drunk deep from the Obama Coolaid.

Its quite clear to me, based upon years of raving tirades such as the above, that Mr. Graham, despite all the bluster, self congratulation, and intellectual self adulation that has come to define his online persona, is actually without serious doubt among the least read and least intellectually serious interlocutors in this forum who hail from the Left. I'm going to give some real face to some of my other long term opponents around here now, for at least being capable of actually challenging my beliefs on political/social issues on occasion, as if they had actually given serious thought to their own position, and mine, before posting.

Graham appears, despite his constant reminding of everyone how smart, educated, and intellectually astute he is, to have gotten most of what he believes regarding political philosophy, history, and current events from Micheal Moore movies, obscure Leftist blogs (of the kind he likes to send people too for charts, graphs, and "studies" that otherwise have a questionable provenance) and Link TV documentaries. In a way, Kevin is the Walter Duranty of secularist Internet anti-Mormonism.

Yes, Kevin "Snowball" Graham walks among us.
