Which apparently is the same thing as Clinton coming up with the idea of saying Obama is an Illegal Kenyan Muslim.


The Muslim idea appeared even earlier than 2008 actually. Another candidate in Illinois in 2004 apparently floated the idea of him being a "crypto-Muslim".

People have been flinging shit at him for a long time.

And this was the moment in history when "Hillary Clinton" became a capital insult in the human vocabulary.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

Also unsurprising. I thought he was a really angry farmer when it first came out on the news. The poor prices plus farm subsidy cuts and the State economy in the toilet have created a... discontented environment.

Social Contract is mostly BS. You don't have an obligation to worship the government just because you are born on a certain land area.

Well done.

I looked at the quote, posted from Esquire. Again, I would hope he simply means he agrees with him on some mainline policies, and not necessarily on Duke's Nazism and Holocaust-denial.


probably what he meant by "baggage".


Could just as easily be a "I'm just like him, but its socially acceptable to support me, so you and all your racist friends can proudly vote for me without worrying about losing your social status for being racist. *wink wink nudge nudge*"

Out of all of history's greatest acts of oppression, only one was not legal: the Trail of Tears. Everything else: slavery, Jim Crow, and yes, the Holocaust itself, were legal.

Does that mean they're not acts of tyranny and oppression? I'd think all reasonable people would answer no.
