Sorry guys. I was being light-hearted with my “fantasy”: See, I had been asked to clarify my interpretation, so i did so in a peaceful, respectful, and non-stereotypical way. The last sentence of the paragraph was a wink, since my contention has been that most liberals don’t “hate” Sarah Palin (except for a hyper-emotional fringe element that gets the most publicity) or America, or God or whatever it is that we’re supposed to mindlessly hate.

Kind of like if you were to post on HuffPo and say, “I believe in these principles here… small gov, family values yadda-yadda… I’m sure your Obama is a decent enough guy, but I have philosophical disagreements with him. I don’t need to hate him to disagree with him. I’m no danger to your America. That being said, I want to burn down every Whole Foods, turn all wine into water, and ban yoga (and NPR)!

Because stereotypes are stupid, and we should all get over them.
