The Right and The Left

The gist of his argument is that what bin Laden and al Qaeda and radical Islam are angry enough to send their compatriots on suicide missions against America and its interests, is their sensibilities being offended by the far extreme of liberal Hollywood and gay acceptance.

More on that later.

But for now, let me just put forth that liberals see America as an idea while conservatives see America as a culture.
