I know you are neither a liberal nor retarded - My response was clearly directed, in general terms, to all of this feigned outrage over what is tantamount to simply an ignorant old man's rantings.
An old man who no one in this world would have ever known a single thing about had it not been for the "Pelosi-izing" of the US Government.

my original post was a link showing his comments, and another showing his comments he made to defend the initial comments. it was the second set that prompted the post that started the thread.
it was to draw attention to his hypocrisy, hypocrisy being one of my pet peeves.
i seldom get 'outraged'. more often, if starting a thread it's to start a conversation about something i either agree or disagree with, or to get thoughts from others.
at work, i have moments of business punctuated by longer moments of boredom, in which i have time to read...and no one to talk to except the dog. so, much of the time i start a thread here, or go to slate, to enjoy conversation. it's not out of outrage, it's out of lack of people to talk to at work.
but, quite often it has its good points!
