Is BRTD a neo-con?

[2952-0-0]

Well, his views on Muslims are somewhat similar to those of neo-cons. And don't forget; neo-cons came out of anti- Vietnam War liberals in the 1970s.

Is Dean an idiot?

Is Dean an idiot?

He's a reformed communist with very hawkish foreign policy views. He says he would overthrow Iraq's new govt somewhere and grudges against Muslims and Islam in general.

[Jake]

No, has absolutely zero hawkish feelings. He just is a bigot and hates any religion other than his own, especially Islam. He is in no way neo-conservative.

[WalterMitty]

im convinced that brtd will be a republican in 20 years (and live in the suburbs)

[Banana Republic]

He certainly displays neo-con tendencies. He's always advocating overthrowing the governments of Russia and places like Uzbekistan.  Most of the Neo-Con intelligentsia are/were members of Social Democrats USA, a ex-trotskyite group.

Hilarious.

How so? Are you going to actually refute my arguments or ridicule them like a 5 year old? Or maybe you just don't know what a neo-con is.

[Bono]

And I love him for that.

What do you find hilarious?

The fact that former communists are conducting the foreign policy bitchfights on the right?

He probably likes dark humor.

[King]

Yes, BRTD is a blood-thirsty Jerry Falwell Republican!

[Bono]

Yes, BRTD is a blood-thirsty Jerry Falwell Republican!

What's the resemblance betwen Jerry Falwel and a comie jew posing as a conservative?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

how many neo-cons can you name who oppose the Iraq War?

Most of the governments I wish to overthrow are in fact allies of the neocons (like Uzbekistan). The primary reason for my dislike of Islam is their extremely backward views on social issues.

Oh yeah, look at the guy in my signature. How do neo-cons feel toward him?

[Bono]

Oh yeah, look at the guy in my signature. How do neo-cons feel toward him?

They love him, he's one of their own.

[Tory]

Eisenhower/Dulles/Hoover style Republicans want to take out Chavez, not Neo-Conservatives.

Somewhat off subject, but why must you have a picture of Chavez? That son of a bitch will declare himself dictator when his elected terms run out.

it's just a response to Jake's signature.

Who's the "they?"  I'm not nitpicking on grammar, I' honestly curious.

How many socially progressive Muslim countries are there?

It's considered "liberal" for a Muslim country to simply not force women to cover their bodies and when they aren't simply treated as property of their husbands! And Muslims in the US and Europe certainly aren't showing to be very liberal either.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

How many socially progressive Muslim countries are there?

What's a Muslim country?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

one with a predominately Muslim population.

[Ebowed]

I consider BRTD a moderate leftist who is too often mistaken for a far-lefty.  He's an economic socialist, and a foreign policy dove, but he has renounced communism, and he's not actually so extreme on social issues.  Stop hammering the poor guy; maybe he'll stop posting strip club threads.

[Jake]

one with a predominately Muslim population.

So the US is a Christian country?

[Filuwaúrdjan]

one with a predominately Muslim population.

Ah. I see.
Did you know that India has the second largest Islamic population in the world?

in the sense that I'm talking about, yes.

one with a predominately Muslim population.

third actually (Pakistan is #2), although statistics like that can be screwy. For example there are more Muslims in the United States than Mauritania.
