I seriously doubt that. It’s rabble rousing.

I find that the people who use terms like “right wing loser” are indistinguishable from the people who use terms like “left wing loser”.

That’s fair. But I actually admire the guy. And you people tend to witch-hunt like a bunch of Monty Python extras on crack. So you see where I’m coming from.
