		<description>Thomas, Card (not me, although I happen to agree with him) was comparing the *media&#039;s behavior* on two different occasions.  THAT is a fair comparison.  He was not calling either the global warming crowd or the media Nazis, and Godwin just doesn&#039;t apply.  I read your blog and you&#039;re a smart guy.  Reread what Card actually wrote and I think you&#039;ll agree with me that he did not call anyone a Nazi; he was talking about the media hiding the truth in service to what it thought was a correct agenda.  

In one case, peace, in this case, the environment.  In both cases, concealing/obscuring the full truth is wrong.  In the past, it led to an undesirable outcome, and it will this time, and every other time it happens.  As the Card quote ends, &quot;Isn’t it funny how the public has a “right to know”—except when the media decides not to tell them?&quot;  *That* is the purpose of his comparison, not to compare people to Nazis.

I&#039;m sorry you think I&#039;m a political blowhard... I&#039;m as passionate about what I believe as anyone else, and the media&#039;s recent behavior, and that of the left, is flat out infuriating to me.  So yes, I&#039;ve written about it more than usual.  As to the faith posts, they&#039;ve been scattered throughout.  Less frequently of late because there are things I just can&#039;t talk about yet - and when I do, you just might think I&#039;m a zealot or some kind of nut.  Regardless, I&#039;ve enjoyed your past comments here as they are often thought-provoking.</description>

		<description>This may be some of the most irresponsible drivel I&#039;ve ever read on this blog. 

First, to compare global warming alarmists and Nazi&#039;s is so hyperbolic as to be mind numbing. 

Second: I draw your attention to the well known concept behind &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Godwin&#039;s Law&lt;/a&gt;. 

Third: When I began reading this blog I was drawn in by a handful of thoughtful, well articulated posts on the nature of faith and of religion in the modern world. The bulk of recent posts have centered on conservative politics. Did I manage to catch just a few good posts amid other concerns? Did the focus of the blog change over time? If so, will it change back? What I was reading before was dynamic and provoking. Now I&#039;m reading the same stuff I can find from any other political blowhard.</description>
