..."be a lesbian."
..."be outright traitors."
..."Quit having illegitimate babies."
...bob on my knob. Quote that. While these quotes certainly prove that prominent conservatives can be ignorant and hypocritical at times, it doesn't in the least bit lend credit to liberals. It's not a well-made argument, contrasting what good things liberal candidates and such can offer as opposed to these people. It doesn't have a particular focus beyond smearing. And, it ignores any and all context to the quotes, except when it looks more incriminating.
I can find plenty of things wrong with much of our political and social leadership on both sides. I don't need obscure quotes to convince me of that.
