And it's been my experience that those who accuse others of being overly simplistic and biased in views, generally are themselves. Especially after having made broad generalizations based on an obviously biased view of a group that runs a vast range of ideals and social issues. Fearmongering and media pandering aside, there is really no more rationality on the right than there is on the left. It's just that the lack of critical thinking and mania is better hidden behind the veneer of "god and country" rhetoric. Conservativism is well and good- until it becomes a rallying cry for instilling fear of "evil socialist bullies out to get us" and the mentality of ostracism and persecution that goes with it. Pretty sure the McCarthy era is proof enough of that. We've already (in theory, at least) learned the lesson of over-zealous reactionary retaliation against "socialist conspiracy". Haven't we??
