I also believe that his lies should be exposed for what they are, regardless of his intentions. Nemski got it exactly right “Republican David might be earnest, but he is not free of deceit, hypocrisy or falseness.”

Personally, I don’t think he is even earnest. I think he is a total fraud. And I do pity that.

We often talk here about the difference between liberals and conservatives. I think it is this: Conservatives are afraid of “the other,” and, given their propensity for dividing all groups into “us” and “them,” that makes them see danger almost everywhere. There has been recent research showing this to be true — conservatives have brain circuitry more sensitive to perceived danger than do liberals.

Look at David’s stated fear: liberals are destroying America. Of course, he’s got the causality wrong: America is changing, just as it always has, and liberals are less afraid of that than conservatives are. But conservatives throughout our history have said exactly the same things David says, and clearly they weren’t right, or America wouldn’t have become the most powerful nation on earth — it would have been destroyed by the liberals of the 1820s, and 1840s, and 1860s, etc., etc., etc.

So try to be gentle. Though he is dangerous in his ignorance, he deserves pity more than hatred.

Oh yeah, I’m talking about Utley my Cocker Spaniel puppy.

The definition of sincere:

free of deceit, hypocrisy, or falseness; earnest

Republican David might be earnest, but he is not free of deceit, hypocrisy or falseness.

What are you doing here? I thought you quit.

Classic.

So, has anyone seen the total circle jerk he, Frank, and Pat Fish are dancing over there now? Honestly, I feel threatened by them. No, not physically, but in other ways. It’s really bad (OK, maybe good for you). There is no reconciliation.

BTW, remember yesterday how David claimed he wanted a moderate purge? Well today, he says he doesn’t. WTF?

This may be sincere, but it is sincerely wrong. And that is the whole problem with assessing “sincerity”. It goes as far as what his leaders tell him every day. If the radio handlers and Fox Noise went on a jihad against Perot, he would be sincerely here telling us that Perot almost drove America off of the cliff.

The sincerity is in the slavishiness to other people’s opinions and directions.

A great example is torture. In spite of the incontrovertible evidence that people were tortured to death under the Bush administration, he insists that it wasn’t torture and the techniques were fine and dandy.

It’s time for the spouse-beater Myers to go.
