I'd like to answer Patrick Westmoreland . If you conclude that most conservatives consider themselves to be Christians, then I should like to conclude, based on the same specious reasoning, that most liberals ...

Thanks for your insightful letter, Mr. Gardner. Have you read the "Obama Nation" by Corsi? It is a well researched and documented book. Have a great week.

Good Morning, Gentlemen!

When you submit an article like this for publication, Mr. Gardner, you have to expect some dissenting opinions, so here's mine.

Before addressing the article, I'd like to address surfcaster's comment that Mr. Corsi's book is well researched and documented. I ask people to visit http://www.google.com/search... and see for themselves that Mr. Corsi's book seems to be just a continuation of his swiftboating tactics from a previous campaign.

Now to Mr. Gardner's letter. Paragraph 1: I have to ask where you have been, sir, when you say you have not heard any hate-filled epithets from conservatives. Republicans spent Bill Clinton's entire presidency ~ and even now, eight years later ~ hurling epithets at him. And the link above will give anyone reading it a good idea of some of the epithets currently being hurled at Senator Obama.

Paragraph 2: I have to wonder what kind of "support" it is to vote against almost every bill that would benefit active-duty military and veterans. Googling it will show who has done exactly that the past seven years. http://www.google.com/search...

Paragraph 3: I am not familiar enough with the issue of global warming to debate it with you.

Paragraph 4: The old liberal vs conservative argument has been around as long as I can remember and I won't even bother addressing it here.

Paragraph 5: Why IS it conservatives seem to hate the idea of medical care for everyone? If it's THAT bad, why continue providing it for our elected representatives and our military?

Paragraph 6: http://www.google.com/search... will show us there is much more to this issue than meets the eye, as will http://www.google.com/search...

So, while liberals and conservatives continue their childish name-calling exercises, I would ask: "what is getting done in Washington that will benefit us as a nation?"

You are totally pathetic and truly reflect what is wrong with politics in the U. S. Your self righteousness is appalling. Preaching hatred is an abuse of the First Amendment. Finally, I really wonder if you are even bright considering all your dogma.

Mr. Gardner is an idiot! He's never heard a mean-spirited conservative??????

Dude, crawl out of your mother's basement once in a while. Ever heard of talk radio? Rush, Hannity, Boortz, ect.,spend their entire programs doing nothing except talking vile about liberals--the Clintons are a particularly favorite target of these hacks. Ever hear of Fox News? Good luck in seeing a positive piece on any Democrat. Ever hear of magazines such as the Weekly Standard, National Review, and NewsMax? pages chock-full of Democrat bashing by conservatives.

Mr. Gardner, please ask your mommy to loosen the apron strings a bit, and allow you some freedom in the real world. I agree that Democrats bash Republicans as well, but if you think the conservatives are innocent little angels, you, sir, are delusional.

You idiot. You are bashing a book that you have not read. Tell us about Odama's stance on abortion. Better yet, reveal how much money is being funneled from China and the mustslim countries to elect the messiah of bastards. How much secret service protection and at what cost will the US have to provide to protect his half-bros.

It's a book of falsehoods and lies that was very poorly researched, what a joke.

I googled "Obama Nation" and one of the first links that came up was http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/opinion/375563_... which points out how books like Mr. Corsi's work. Of course, McCain supporters will discount it because it doesn't come from Fox, but the rest of us may find it interesting reading. A little more straightforward assessment of the book can be found at http://www.consortiumnews.com/2008/081908a.ht...

Bottom line: We're not going to change the minds of people like surfcaster, Chester or Ocean Vista; what we CAN try to do is ensure people see their viewpoints for what they are.

You still have not factually answered any of the questions asked.

Perhaps you can answer your questions FOR us, surfcaster. As for me, I'll go with the information on Senator Obama's website and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama

As I have posted many times before, instead of attacking Senator Obama, why don't you tell us which of Senator McCain's policies you agree with and why we would be smart to vote for him instead of Senator Obama.

Just so you'll know, Florida, someone else sent me an atlah.org link last week, and after checking out the site and listening to some of the sermons, I wrote IRS to make them aware of what they are doing. In case you are not aware, what they are doing is grounds for revoking their tax-exempt status. http://www.irs.gov/charities/charitable/artic...
