Kim Jong-Il is certainly the most dangerous of that group.

Michael Moore is dangerous to the extent that anybody listens to him.  Some stupid people do, but enough reject him to make him less dangerous than the leader of a rogue nation.

Pat Robertson is more or less a gasbag, and I don't think too many people take him seriously.

That post I agree with in toto.  Care to comment on Jean Marie Le Pen?  Remember, he was the traditionalist who finished second behind Jacques Chirac in 2003, but ahead of Lionel Jospin, the Leftist-Socialist, in the presidential race.  (neither americans nor french like to admit that our governments are much more alike in structure than either are like its neighbors.  this, too, I blame on the schools)  Le Pen makes Ralph Reed look like a veritable saint.  He's the xenophobic, chauvinistic (okay, I know those two adjectives are redundant, since we already said he was French), French nationalist-traditionalist who advocated a more rightist economic policy, stricter immigration policy, and a control and ID policy for muslims that would make Alolf Eichman and Josef Goebels proud. 

Or did you leave him out deliberately?  You GOP-fascist-capitalist pig.  Wink

My knowledge of Le Pen is very superficial.  I know that he's a French right-winger who got about 20% of the vote in a multi-candidate contest for the French presidency.  He's been called a fascist, but leftists call anybody they don't like fascist, so I don't know if it's really true without independent knowledge of the policies he advocates, which I don't really have.  I try not to speak with too much authority about things I know little about, which is why I was silent on Le Pen.

Le Pen has called the Holocaust a minor detail of history and has made the claim that Chirac is in the pocket of some shadowy Jewish groups. His supporters have also spraypainted swastikas in Jewish cemetaries. Yes, he's a fcking fascist.

Le Pen isn't all bad, since I oppose Muslim immigration to Europe.

but he's still an anti-Semite.
