You see, being a southern boi, my family, unfortunately, had ties to the group. And, like the WBC, Americans for the Truth about Homosexuality, and other hate groups, I like to keep an eye on the enemy. Burying my head in the sand and saying unenforceable, angry shit like "we should just shoot them all" doesn't help me stay prepared to deal with the groups as a real threat and only makes me look like an extremist asshole.

the KKK was started by and is still full of democrats. a lot of the crazy people listed as rabid republicans were not republicans, more than not, they were apolitical. few christians support killers who attack abortion clinics or their dr.'s.

as to the right wing talk show host, u hear a statement taken out of context and assume its fact. u have obivously never taken the time to listen to them. once again painting with a broad brush and repeating what the left wing media tells u is occuring. today hannity had a radical muslim, a converted (away from islam) muslim lady and a moderate muslim on his show, it was not all one sided as the lib media would have u believe. yes, beck and others have pointed out parts of the islam faith that condems all non muslims, but as beckh has said often he does not believe all muslims feel this way. but u do not hear that that part of his speech.

off to bed ffor Me,

What I find interesting is that at least a few of the monsters mentioned in the OP did not identify as "republican" or "Conservative" in fact more than one of them identifies(or did) as "anti-government". But those are facts and that shouldn't get in the way of understanding social reactions, human nature, or partisan bullshit parading around as moral high ground.

PS. I LOVE when folk start talking about the KKK as a "religious hate group". I don't support their actions and damnit they're some fucked up folks in that little club. However, the Klan started out making movements and threats to intimidate Republican party members after the end of the American civil war. In fact, the latest organized version of the Klan has created it's own political party called the "Knights Party".

Funny that some consider Timothy Mc Veigh as a "conservative" when he was really "anti-government" and a leftist-anarchist. It must be the "camos" I guess!

I find it is easier to condemn a large group of people.

It saves my brain all kinds of work. Who wants to do all that thinking?
