I think fahdizzle used to love Alan Keyes.  Then he stopped being crazy.  So he probably doesn't like him anymore. :)

I've gone on record as admitting that I voted Keyes in the 1996 primary.  To be fair, this was before Keyes himself went totally crazy.

If having contempt for that soulless asshole makes me a sexist I will gladly tell the ladies to get back in the kitchen and make me some pie.

I didn't say "everyone who disliked her was a sexist", did I?  And are you a leftist?  :huh:

You seemed to be saying that sexism the only reason anybody would ever dislike her.

Besides you know perfectly well Eleanor Roosevelt could return from the dead and would be heartedly despised by the Leftists if she decided to be a Republican this time around.

I think Hillary may have exposed some sexism in that last round, but Sarah Palin...really? :blink:

That reminds me of the Tina Fey-Amy Poehler skit that SNL where they played Palin and Clinton speaking out about sexism and the Clinton character was apoplectic that suddenly sexism was a campaign issue that people cared about when Palin entered the scene.

I think Hillary may have claimed some sexism in that last round because so many people were turned off by her ENORMOUS ASS.  Doesn't mean it's true.

Hillary is likable enough.

Sue Rice IIRC.

She may be looking for a job soon.  If you help her get an interview somewhere, that could be your in.

Love him.  He speaks his mind a bit too often to be a serious contender, but I'd love to have him as the VP candidate.  He'd likely expose racism on the left much like Palin exposed leftist sexism GOP gender tokenism in 2008.
