You know that part of The Producers (and I’m referencing the original, Zero Mostel, Gene Wilder version) when the opening sequence of “Springtime for Hitler” starts? And the audience sits there, staring, slackjawed, as the parade of grotesque stereotypes of German “culture&rd/

You may have already heard about this poll. It's making its way through the "liberal media."
There is no doubt that Daily Kos leans to the left. Leans, like a three-legged table with two of its legs removed.

Blowhard Christian Soldiers
The only “social responsibility” of a Christian is to live, wherever and with whomever he may be, the life of faith, for his own salvation and as an example to others. If, in so doing, we help to ameliorate or abolish a social evil, that is a good thing
