Paranoia is not patriotismAhem, there is also a segment of the uber-right, the Alex Jones uber-patriot type who fits into a category here somewhere too ...Has your dog been acting funny lately? They say dogs can smell fear. Perhaps your pooch is detecting the panic wafting from your morning newspaper.
In its unhinged post-election state, the American Left has delved to new depths of fear.
I appreciate your comment, but this column was written primarily for a local audience in Northwest Illinois, and I haven't met a member of the "uber-Right" (unless I'm misunderstanding your definition of uber-Right) since I've lived here, but I've met plenty of vocal and extremely paranoiac Leftists who love to spread anti-Christian hate speech. And some of the people I'm referring to in this column sit on the boards of churches, community organizations and the county committees of the Democratic party; they are people who affect what life will be like in my area, and they believe the President is evil and bent on theocratic world conquest, and that most of us who voted for him are similarly evil.
