Well, a couple here at Friends University who responded pretty poorly to the selection of the book about Farmer (not "Pauly," yo, show some respect), as it included, in their view, quoting here, some "abominably stupid" criticisms of Western capitalism. Are they representative of conservative thought, generally? Don't know, don't care; that wasn't my point. Though you will also note, of course, that I called such people "so-called conservatives." I seriously doubt there's anything properly "conservative" about a dismissal of an effort to feed or provide medical care to the poor of the world, just because it sounds socialistic. But hey, that's just me.Russell Arben Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03366800726360134194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7907752.post-40707245251819606162009-03-29T08:36:00.000-05:002009-03-29T08:36:00.000-05:00Yo, you quote conservatives who think Pauly's visi...Yo, you quote conservatives who think Pauly's vision "abominable." Which conservatives are you quoting, dawg? Or are you simply stereotyping all conservatives, the way some conservatives stereotype all Muslims as theocratic fascists?
