If I was trying to change how you see the situation, I'd have given up a long time ago. The entire point of that "drive by," as you put it, was to point out that the Conservative wing of American politics is neither as monolothic, nor as uniform, as many folks would like. It makes it a lot easier to imagine Conservatism as a giant pastiche of racism and revenge fantasies and argue against -that-, but that doesn't make it accurate. -That- was my point.
That and getting a chance to use "Goatfucker" again, since "Teabagger" now seems to be back on the menu around here.
