Please provide examples of hateful nutcases that are embraced by the conservatives.
When Terry Schiavo was in the news, the oh-so-respectful staff at Fox News decided to go down to Florida, set up shop right outside the hospice where she was, and make a grand example of the protestors who were preventing people from getting into the hospice to see their own dying family.
One person broke into the hospice on a mission to feed Ms. Schiavo, but he had brought solid food which would have killed her if he had managed to actually get to her and attempted to force it down her throat.
Not only were these people not denounced by the conservatives, they were actively promoted and hailed.
The entire Congress shoved a bill through to "save" her causing the President to come back from yet another vacation to sign it.
Robertson blamed gays, the ACLU, feminists, etc. for the terrorist attacks. The Republican presidential candidates are still actively seeking his endorsement. McCain, who previously claimed that he was a hatemonger, suddenly turned on his heel and embraced him (though Robertson has formally endorsed Giuliani).
Shall I go on?
