    Article sounds like it's hoping to be a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you say it often enough, maybe people will believe it.

    Your reading comprehension is really horrible, so I'll make it easier for you:

    Any writer who uses verbiage like that isn't trying to put forth an even-keeled, rational discussion of issues.

    See, you may not understand this, but even-keeled, rational discussions don't involve calling one entire side of the political spectrum names.

    I wonder how many of your posts are nothing but the word "indeed." I also wonder how often (quite often would be my guess) even that one word post doesn't make sense.

    Where, exactly, in that entire post was either side called a name? The closest I can see is "anti-Muslim", but frankly, when Geller is calling it a "monster mosque", goes on and on about trying to halt "Islamic domination and expansionism" and heads-up a group called "Stop Islamization of America", that's not name calling: it's reporting fact.

    So, as always, you FAIL.
