BB, I stand by what I wrote.

. . . a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance."

I do not regard or treat any racial or ethnic group with hatred or intolerance. Nor do I regard the Bush administration with hatred and intolerance. I do, however, regard them as being both incompetent and corrupt, and I can give you a whole list of reasons why I—and large numbers of other people who are rational and in no way bigoted—regard them as such.

And you will also note that in no way can the Bush administration, and their apologists such as yourself, be regarded as an "ethnic or racial group." Being a member of an ethnic or racial group is not a matter of one's choice. One's philosophical and political position, on the other hand, is a matter of choice.

So your charge of bigotry against me is completely empty, and having to descend to mischaracterizing those with whom you disgree and calling them names in that manner displays a certain desperation on your part.

Feeling that the weakness of your position makes you a bit vulnerable?
