That's an all inclusive statement -- you've interviewed every bigot?
If you read Mencken, you'll find out he carefully aims as bigots and hypocrites with deadly arrows. So if they are cheering, they are truly idiots.

I guess I'm sort of the flip side of you, au1929. I reserve the right to vote for a person and their ideas, background, philosophy and not blindly for a party. But my votes tend to go in the GOP column.

Sometimes, I think allegience to a party leads us to see everything through partisan eyes. Interesting to see most poll responders here are Other. That was my vote as well.

As I said I know very little about Mencken and would not comment upon whether he was bigoted or not. However, I do believe unless they are playing to the crowd a bigot firmly believes what he says.

Yeah, we can no longer express our "opinions" without something to support it! That'll stifle me for sure. ;( c.i.

c.i. - Naw, you can throw out any opinion you want, so long as you don't fool people into thinking that the words were spoken by an expert.


As for me, who knows just about everything.......... Laughing

Amigo, That other 42% shows our country is ready for an Independent Party. Both sides, the democrats and republicans, are hopeless for the future of our country. It's the only way we can recover some of our democracy and respect from our friends and foes.
