		<description>Thanks for the clarification on Samuel Johnson&#039;s historical and perceptive quote jimmy tumors, I did indeed paraphrase Johnson&#039;s sage adage with 
&quot;Patriotism is the last bastion of racists and scoundrels.” apologies to the late Samuel Johnson but due to the devolution of some people, namely the racist xenophobic Minutemen and their ilk, I felt that the addition of the term racist was in this case apropos, hopefully one of these days we can go back to just using the original quote,   “Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.” as you so graciously provided.

Santiago, thank you for your lazerbeam truth and prose, especially the first line,&quot;
 &quot;Minutemen are poseurs supreme.&quot;

Alienation, it would take the likes of Freud, Jung, and Judge Judy, to understand the weird overlap of  Gay Nazis and Fascist’s who hate and bash out of the closet Gay people.

An example of this weird affliction can be heard on the radio daily, a good article in Political Articles .Net examines this phenomenon,

&quot;Rush’s divorces and his disdain of females, usually characterized by outbursts of disgusting sexual slurs and gender-bashing, on his radio talk-shows, suggests that this man is not really into women, and unconsciously blames them for his sexual quagmire.
Rush usually refers to women derogatively as — FEMINAZIS!. Some consider use of the term “feminazi” ironic because feminists and other political dissenters were among the victims of Nazi concentration camps and Nazi work camps. Gloria Steinem said in an interview, “Hitler came to power against the strong feminist movement in Germany, padlocked the family planning clinics, and declared abortion a crime against the state–all views that more closely resemble Rush Limbaugh’s.” Many prominent German feminists like Helene Stďcker, Trude Weiss-Rosmarin and Clara Zetkin were forced to flee Nazi Germany.

“Democrats will bend over, grab the ankles, and say, ‘Have your way with me’

		<description>just for the record, according to wikipedia, the quote, attributed to Samuel Johnson (1709-1784), is actually &quot;Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.&quot; it&#039;s quoted in &quot;The Life of Samuel Johnson,&quot; by James Boswell. 

the full excerpt from the book is, &quot;Patriotism having become one of our topicks, Johnson suddenly uttered, in a strong determined tone, an apophthegm, at which many will start: &#039;Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.&#039; But let it be considered, that he did not mean a real and generous love of our country, but that pretended patriotism which so many, in all ages and countries, have made a cloak of self-interest.&quot;</description>

		<description>Minutemen are poseurs supreme. 
 
Minutemen are prevaricators and fabricators. Fibbers and storytellers.
 
Minutemen are usurpers and falsifiers. With no conscience.

Minutemen blacken, calumniate, and asperse, also, with no conscience.

Minutemen misrepresent and invent.

Minutemen are reactionary, and do not contribute anything.

Minutemen untruths are intended to mislead and to be taken as fact. 

Minutemen resort to bald misstatements of fact, and to deceptive half-truths.

Minutemen are the ultimate posters who create subsequent comments as though there is a conversation.
 
Minutemen are being watched.</description>

		<description>DQ, a lot of those comments at newspaper web sites are just trolls looking to get a rise.  I used to post at a couple of local ones until I realized the comments sections are just a zoo.  You have a lot of people posting cruel comments and I notice they only have 1 comment overall.  It&#039;s a few people who keep re-registering new screen names.  The papers, or whatever company operates these sites, just let it all slide.  The more hits, the merrier, far as they&#039;re concerned.  It&#039;s just another sign of how desperate the newspaper industry is.  When they first started doing these comments sections they used to weed out the trolls.  Now they&#039;re just watching the hit meter and begging advertisers to buy space.  I wouldn&#039;t be surprised if a lot of these racist trolls are employees of the paper.  

The actions and behavior alone of the Minutemen are suspicious enough.  They should be watched.  If we&#039;re going to have a homeland security department, it should cover the whole spectrum, not just potential terrorists with brown skin and Arab names. </description>

		<description>Caxcan, what I meant to say I guess is that only right wingers and cops throw the term &quot;radical&quot; around as if it means criminal or enemy of the state, etc.  It&#039;s funny that there are still people who do it.  </description>

		<description>&quot;gabrielito&quot;, &quot;billy bob&quot;, and &quot;mama bolinas&quot;, you are racists. You three panzones obviously don&#039;t eat much in the way of fruits &amp; veggies that the migrant workers pick, yet you have such xenophobic hate for them.

It&#039;s no longer the white man&#039;s world.

Let me quote Fred G. Sanford, &quot;You BIG dummies!&quot;</description>
