    I googled the topic title and this is what came up. Clearly it interested these folks enough to write a whole report. If people are white supremacists, they seem to me to be pretty up front about it, though it does seem like the kind of thing people would go to some lengths to hide. It wouldn't surprise me if there were white supremacists that supported the tea party any more than if anarchists supported the democrat party. I don't care, I'm sure they have their reasons.

    Why so important to defend against these charges, if they are false wouldn't it be a good thing that they are wasting so much time and money chasing after something that isn't there?

    I suppose that could be said of just about anything. Or it may be the the extreme left wing has been trying to convince people of this lie and have convinced some people like crabby with no evidence, no intellectual thought process, and no concern if it is actually true or not. It fits a political agenda and that is that.

    What "whole report?" They put up a bunch of gobbledy-gook that no one can navigate or understand and called it a "report?" FYI, "nativist leader" or the general term "nativist" is an epithet invented by extremists bent on proving a far-right wing conspiracy is afoot in the U.S. It is used on just about anyone who isn't roughly a mile and a half left of center.

    Your effort is an epic fail.

    What effort? I googled a topic title and put up a link, I promise you very little effort on my part.

    If you noticed, I posted that I have no idea if the information is any good, correct or written by llamas. Simply jumping in a very heated conversation, interested as to why all the heat.

    It interests me why Christians would spend so much time and effort defending any political system. In fact, I even asked this question. Rev, was even kind enough to answer.

    I'm not sure what you think I epically failed at doing, perhaps you could enlighten me?

    I'd be happy with a retraction from C.T.Boy.

    And it was still an epic fail.

    Why fan the flames if you know the fire is out of control?

    Few political systems have ever been truly blessed by God. If you don't believe ours has been, perhaps a brief reacquainting with our history would help you understand why we defend it. Plus, I've shed blood and lost friends in its defense. Why would I stop now?

    You have leaped into a discussion you admit you fail to understand, and risk adding fuel to the fire. Why would you do that?

    Okay, then, if it helps you sleep

    It's a discussion board, kinda the whole purpose. I didn't say it was out of control, just heated.

    I reject the idea/premise that God blesses any political system.

    Thanks for your service.

    Don't stop, keep at it.

    Again this is a discussion board, kinda the whole point. When I don't understand something, I ask questions.
