If terrorists don't represent the Muslim community, than the Muslim community should do a better job of finding people who represent it. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 11, 09:44 9
- The tea partiers voted for Paladino. They could have voted for the other guy or endorsed a better candidate. -- nm - pmb Oct 11, 09:47 6
  - I'll concede that they might not have know how big a douchebag he was initially. -- nm - Reagen Oct 11, 09:47 5
    - I haven't followed this, but I find it hard to believe that nobody had a clue about his level of douchebaggery at the time of the primary. -- nm - pmb Oct 11, 09:48 3
      - see, but on a national level he is a king-level douchebag, but in Upstate NY? not so much - decline Oct 11, 09:50 2
        
        Is this like Chris Rock's but about Marion Berry being elected Mayor of Cracktown? -- nm - Reagen Oct 11, 09:51 1
        
        What we're seeing now is that the areas where the crazies try to out-crazy one another are getting more national attention. -- nm - David Oct 11, 09:57

- But then numerous Muslim groups denounce, for example, OBL, terrorism and specific terror attacks. - Reagen Oct 11, 09:46
- They have. But you all keep telling them they have to move their mosque further away from Ground Zero. -- nm - TWuG Oct 11, 09:45
There is no one "Tea Party," though. -- nm - mara Oct 11, 09:39 3
- Which is the one that hates gays? -- nm - Reagen Oct 11, 09:44
- This. Tea Partiers are self-labeling wingnuts, not an actual party. Yet. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Oct 11, 09:40 1
  - Pfft. They're a wholly owned subsidiary of the GOP. -- nm - TWuG Oct 11, 09:44
