I understand, I am not carelessly throwing the 'traitor' word around like those who, you know, get excited about Norquist but don't seem particularly worried about Mssr. Perle, but I think Norquist should do better than calling his critics racists-- I don't like that as a tactic.

My suggestion back to you is not to bother with defending Norquist, but to keep the guns set on Gaffney, but that is just MHO. On the other hand, I come across as the centrist on L'Affaire Norquist, which is a rare spot for me indeed!

Oh. I see. That way we can avoid the real issues. Bye-bye

Norquist *did* do better, he called his attackers on their religious bigotry, not racial bigotry.
That charge was morphed into a liberal race card by the usual gang of bigots. It made him easier to attack and harder to defend.
