Избиратели Керри заранее репетируют истерику и угрожают лишить Америку самого дорогого - себя - если она выберет Буша. Интересно, что-то я не замечал подобных угроз от республиканцев, если Керри победит. Хотя да, конечно - Буш - он же Диавол Во Плоти, а Керри - ветеран Вьетнама, совсем другое дело.

И угрожал уехать в Канаду?Насчёт обманутых дураков - Рашу есть куда расти, почитайте либеральные блоги и ЖЖ либералов через день после выборов. Но я-то писал вовсе о другом.

OK, I don't want to discuss Limaugh either. It was just an example of kookiness.

В данном случае вполне очевидно, кто выражается фразами типа "я стыжусь, что я американец", а кто - нет.

I guess only proud Americans want to secede from the union.

А уж какая сторона лучше - дело вкуса.

Absolutely.

Look, you can certainly define kooky attitudes very narrowly so that only your opponents fall under the definition. Such as, you will consider only statements of a certain format like "I hate America" and close your eyes on any other extremes. Never mind that you started out with making fun of those who were going to "deprive America of themselves", you already forgot about it because all of sudden there are people on supposedly your side who are going to do the same. So you changed the subject to a more convinient one. So long with the logic and honesty. Oh, yeah, in my book literally demonizing liberals and the federal govermnent is as insane as being ashamed of America.

OK, I got it. Moving to the particular country of Canada if your candidate is not elected is deplorable. Seceding from the Union if the your country does not want to live your way is OK. Oh, boy.

Просто среди левых они почему-то очень голосистые.

I think it's in the eye of the beholder until proven objectively.

И пресса ими вовсе не гнушается, почему-то.

I suspect if Bush had lost we could have expected to hear much more about moaning and groaning on the loony right in the mainstream media. But even before the election Kerry was denied communion in certain churches and it was pretty widely covered.

Или вы считаете, что это вполне нормальные характеристики, свидетельствующие об обьективном отношении?

No, there are many people on both sides who are not being reasonable or objective. I also think that claming that the other side is less resonable or objective in general is not reasonable or objective.
