I have no proplem with it whatsoever especially when some are so easily using the racism card. That's the real hate. Actually mocking is a valid form of rhethoric.

And you see "mocking" as a quality to be respected by anyone. I suppose an imam could tell everyone that he is an entertainer. I see no difference. I see two men that have anger and hate and they are speaking to individuals that are not interested in the opinions of others. Neither are interested in the truth, only their own egos. And those that solely listen to Rush or conservative or liberal media are no different then a young Muslim man that hangs on every world of the Imam and does not seak to broaden their knowledge of the world. I see no difference. This type of discourse does this country no good. I would rather be a positive force for change then a negative force for change. Being angry and negative only takes away from the moment and all the wonderful diversity that is to be found in this world. I live for the moment, I do not fear the future, nor look back as to many do. I do not have time for people like Rush, they are a waste of energy. “If the talk radio host is mocking and the imam is serious, a world of difference.”

"Evil" is a very strong word. I reserve that for truly evil people. If people are claiming that one side is infected with a false conscience or evil and are going to "destroy" all that is good and then they claim that they are the true saviors of the world, then no I will not listen to them. Seen it to many times in history. Osama Bin Laden talks about the great satan and that he will save the world. Then we have the religious right that believes us seculars are destroying all that is good and that the religious right or Christian Nationalist will save this great country. I will not fall for such BS from the left or the right. When we start to fear the future as we do now we all grab hold of the strongest tree, the tree with the strongest roots, our faith and ethnicity. We then start to blame the problems of the world on "others" and herd up like animals. Does that sound all to familiar across the world and in this country? “so no side can be considered evil in your mind?”

My computer has a slow download, so we can leave it to others, to question if this merits being called "race baiting" as well. It did not take long. I do see an angle but I'm not sure how strong it is. http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/2008/10/obama-race-baiting-video-discovered.html 2 wrongs don't make a right.
