You forget making the blind see and the lame walk, alas, we'll never know.

Mac attacks calling me a flea don't sting. Remember, those folks are in pain this week. In fact it reminded me of this: And I remember one whose name appeared Between the pictures on a movie screen Election night once in Franconia, When everything had gone Republican And Democrats were sore in need of comfort: Easton goes Democratic, Wilson 4 Hughes 2. And everybody to the saddest Laughed the loud laugh the big laugh at the little. New York (five million) laughs at Manchester, Manchester (sixty or seventy thousand) laughs At Littleton (four thousand), Littleton Laughs at Franconia (seven hundred), and Franconia laughs, I fear—-did laugh that night�-- At Easton. What has Easton left to laugh at, And like the actress exclaim "Oh, my God" at? -Frost, New Hampshire

"Ended the occupation of Iraq." In other words, caved in to terrorists. "Implemented intelligent and workable measures to combat terrorism." In other words, pandered to Frenchmen. "Restored American prestige in the world." In other words, begged the UN for help. "Ended George W. Bush's executive order banning research on embryonic stem cells" A flat-out lie. "Appointed respected jurists to federal courts instead of partisan hacks." Yeah, because Justice Ginsburg is SOOO non-partisan... "Not have created an atmosphere of fervent hatred of homosexuals to win the election and then proceeded to maintain it as a key to his popularity." If voting against court-imposed gay "marriage" is akin to "fervent hatred of homosexuals" then I guess something like 2/3rds of Americans are "fervent haters of homosexuals"... "Perhaps if you strain you can follow an analogy. You, Harry, to John Kerry, are as a flea is to a thoroughbred horse's butt." Cute. A lame personal attack from an Anti-White Leftist... "Throwbacks like you" More personal attacks that go unedited...

"words like 'truth,' 'discernment,' and 'balance' can't be grasped by a cretin." More unedited vitriol from MD, who personally attacks those "she" doesn't agree with...

"Harry, I realize that you are someone who was barely capable of being toilet trained." Aww, how cute. A Kerry supporter speaks...

Harry, I realize that you are someone who was barely capable of being toilet trained. That words like 'truth,' 'discernment,' and 'balance' can't be grasped by a cretin. That even the simple concept that all the material in a refer does not constitute its link is beyond you. But, I am not going to sit here and let you misrepresent the city I live in. A few hipsters at a cafe frequented by, as a normal person would guess, hipsters, are hardly representative of Portland or anywhere else. Oregon, said to be the state with the highest percentage of library use and book buying in the country, was carried easily by John Kerry. Most of the people who supported him can offer coherent reasons for why they backed a candidate who would have: ~ Ended the occupation of Iraq. ~ Implemented intelligent and workable measures to combat terrorism. ~ Restored American prestige in the world. ~ Ended George W. Bush's executive order banning research on embryonic stem cells, providing hope for those suffering paralysis and other disabilities. ~ Stymied the flight of well-paying jobs and investments to other countries. ~ Appointed respected jurists to federal courts instead of partisan hacks. ~ Not have created an atmosphere of fervent hatred of homosexuals to win the election and then proceeded to maintain it as a key to his popularity. Perhaps if you strain you can follow an analogy. You, Harry, to John Kerry, are as a flea is to a thoroughbred horse's butt. I know there are people just as retrograde as you are in Portland. Fortunately, they failed to impose their views on the city and state in most ways in this election. When the next act of terrorism killing scores, hundreds or thousands of Americans occurs, our consciouses will be clear. We will not have enabled the tragedy. Throwbacks like you will bear the responsibility instead.

Some people are only happy if they can portray themselves as victims or counter to the norm. To each his own.

Living in the Rose City as I do, and feeling disaffected during the entire political campaign season due to the overwhelming proliferation of anti-Bush signs, I am pleased to learn of this cafe. After all, the freedom to have such a place is itself one of America's great strengths. Incredible how tolerance, nay, celebration, of the "other" seems to be actually a part of the (gracious-winning) right wing rather than consonant with the vitriol pouring from the lips of my liberal sisters and brothers. Try to find a conservative-friendly cafe in this town. That's the real challenge!

It warms my heart to see the fringe Left suffering so. The latest news: Musical "artist" Moby is seriously pondering a secession movement for the Left Coast and New England. LOL...
