They invariably presume to speak for "America".


So the growing majorities in every major poll who
are fed up to the teeth with Obama's radical
leftist agenda are now "extremist fruitcakes",

Whoops! Reading comprehension (1) *and* non-sequitur (2) problems!

1. Nobody said that except you. Writing your own text and attributing
it to someone else has a name: "Straw Man Argument". And it's not a
compliment. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man )

2. This is what happens when a fruitloop chooses his (?) reply without
reference to whether or not it fits.

See below for a second example.

LOL!


Ya see, it's generally inappropriate to pretend laughter after you've
just shot yourself in the foot.
