Knives Out for Ben Stein

No more Foleying around -- an onslaught of fresh responses to "Hypocrisy, Democrat Style."

(Page 8 of 16)

The Democratic Party is not comprised of only members of the teachers union or homosexuals. We are a party of a spectrum of view points from the conservative to the liberal. When Mr. Stein makes this statement I can only assume he is part of the religious right wing ultra conservative Republican party. Is Mr. Stein saying our political parties have succumbed to the extreme and moderates no longer have a place or a voice?

What I see happening is our political system has lost all civility and respect for opposing viewpoints. Each party vilifies the other in media advertisement or public pronouncement. What's worse, political parties seem to be using their famous friends to do their dirty work for them. Mr. Stein's column is an example of this. I admit the Democrats aren't much better, I just happen to believe in their party platform so I support them.

p>I know Mr. Stein is a satirist and he professes to have gay friends. I wonder if he still does? He should stick to his Comedy Central TV show and leave the job of political commentary to more thoughtful learned people. br> -- Jay Oppenheimer br> Dallas, Texas /p>

"Democratic party that worships (not likes, WORSHIPS) a man named Bill Clinton who did not send suggestive e-mails as far as we know, but who had a barely legal intern give him oral sex kneeling under his desk in the Oval Office."

p>THIS is why your "paper" isn't fit to wrap fish....If Stein would do his homework instead of blathering on and on, he would see that, by far, heterosexual males (which I assume he is part of) are the majority of pedophiles. No one with a single cell of a brain would state that this is indicative of the male, heterosexual community. And he can't possibly be serious when he says his best friend is gay and that he has many gay friends and at the same time state that they are pedophiles. If he had gay friends, he has them no longer. It is a shame that the Spectator has published this piece of junk that masquerades as journalism. br> -- Dr. Kevin Kaatz /p>

...GOP = Grand Old Pedophiles. And you defend it? Sick, just ... pathetic and Sick
