ORIGINAL: LadyPact Are we going to poll other convicted rapists of what they think of various issues? Nahhh, it will all be one-sided. They are all Democrats. Firm News to me. For example, I'm aware the the last President of Israel is a convicted rapist. But far from suggesting that qualifies him a ""brilliant, intelligent and compassionate" lefty hero" or even a Democrat, that just says something about that individual as a person. It's not something that I would ever stoop to use to smear Israel. Of course I'm not a person who claims to have "academic qualifications" in Political Science. In the humble opinion of a person who doesn't claim academic qualifications in Political Science, trying to link the opinion of a rapist - even one as moronic and repugnant as Tyson - with a political cause of any hue, indicates not only basic woeful lack of understanding of Political Science, but a far great familiarity and competence at muck raking and the politics of the gutter. Cheap ignorant shots are usually the product of a cheap ignorant mind, irrespective of what qualifications they may or may not possess. Given the propensity of looney right posters here to indulge in such ugly tactics, it's no surprise to me that such a mind aligns itself with the Right. We should be careful to refrain from judging the Right on the basis of such cheap tactics and to assess their political ideas, such as they are, on their inherent merits and demerits.
