re: #412 LudwigVanQuixote

You know full well, that there are a lot more than 8 voters who sympathize with them. You know full well that Rush and Beck and Palin and various senators and congresscritters and other major right wing voices with national prominence and millions of listeners have been promoting this hysteria.

The only reason to bring up moonbats at all is to point out that the right wing manifestation is just as crazy, but better organized, given vastly more legitimacy in the mainstream, and much more scary.

Right wing is better organized? moveon.org ring a bell? Heck, they’re a mouthpiece for the DNC these days, and they were bashing Bush on legitimacy issues from the outset.

And what about Daily Kos, whose proprietor is now providing editorials for Newsweek and gets to throw his weight around DC?

I question your claim that the right wing is somehow more legitimacy in the mainstream when evidence suggests that the left is far more entrenched (starting with the fact that most journalists self-identify with the left).
