You'll be a true rightwinger ... when you unfailingly pursue the truth ...

... and reject hyperbolic, emotion-based, power-crazed, sand-throwing leftists and their lies.

It takes inner strength and intellectual integrity to achieve that ... because it's ever-so-easier to join the shallow herd taking the oh-so-chic paths of negativism and nihilism.

Are you up to it?

Speaking of sand, did you find the four handfuls that I threw into your sleeping bag before I peed in it?
btw Bold Fraud, you might just want to go back and reread (?) a key paragraph in the Post article you put up.

I am hardly on the left. I suggest you take a look at Mr. Libby a little closer and some of his dealings with Tom Delay. Pursue the truth.... Are you kidding?
You think Anton Scalia pursues the truth? Do you really? The other guys you mention I withhold judgement. But I could give you a list of rightwinging liars and you would not have a leg to stand on. Rightwingers pursue the truth... Good lord please help him.

Seriously, this guy BB is clearly bright. But so incredibly shortsided. I taught a kid like this. He was brilliant, but incredibly naive. He wrote a book at 17 on Justice Tom C. Clark and got it published. It was really quite good. He was a math genius (ran out of math too teach him, Calculus II as a Junior) with an incredibly good grip of the English language. He went abroad to study. His Japanese teacher said he had almost complete control of the language after 1 year of study and 2 months in Japan... in High School, at 16 years old.

But... the kid did not seek the truth. He did not want me to teach him about Evolution, did not want to hear it, because he knew the logic would appeal to his reasoning and totally rock his world. After spending that time in Japan, this kid went back to his church and gave a sermon at his church, basically stating that the Japanese will undoubtely go to hell. Unbelievable.

BB reminds me of a dumb version of this kid... and old enough to carry snake oil in his hip pocket. And he knows its snake oil.

Ahh! Good choice of words, Pgardn.
Snake oil:

Last sentence says it all.
