I am not saying that the Democratic party echoes these viewpoints, but the far left most certainly does. That said, these people also believe the Dems are sellouts, and advocate communism.<br /><br />Kevin:<br /><br />Yes, O'Reilly is a stupid blowhard, but he is a genius compared to these people. It was amusing to watch his video.Red Tulipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546144713477594777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22462867.post-28477931082080809762007-01-31T11:24:00.000-05:002007-01-31T11:24:00.000-05:00The only people who REALLY give a damn about what...The only people who REALLY give a damn about what celebrities think is the right, and they just use them as strawmen, scapegoats, and just as a way to fire up "the base".<br /><br />I've never met anyone on the left who got their views from celebrities.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02570533262697579725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22462867.post-72095937711843899912007-01-31T11:04:00.000-05:002007-01-31T11:04:00.000-05:00That's the best thing about O'Reily, he makes peop...That's the best thing about O'Reily, he makes people with stupid views look stupid.

I mean, come on, not only they are completely passe, but they are not authorities on our foreign policies.

Any government that comes to power in Iraq will be an Islamic fundamentalist government under sharia law, and all that comes with that.<br /><br />But of course no one listened. I still can't believe anyone actually thought the Iraqi's wanted the kind of freedom we have in the west.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02570533262697579725noreply@blogger.com
