An Open Letter to Conservatives

I signed into Ravelry today (Ravelry is an on-line community of knitters, crocheters, yarn dyers, spinners, etc.  http://www.ravelry.com/ ) so that I could check out if there was anything new in some of my groups.  Anyway, on Wingnut Watch one of the moderators had posted a link to a wonderful blogpost by a gentleman calling himself American Dad.  It was an open letter to conservatives where he took probably most everything ugly they have been doing and citing proof of their lies.  It has already gone viral, as the link I'm giving is for another blog which posted it (the original citation was too long -- it is a TPM blog -- and I couldn't get the whole thing.  Anyway, please go to http://filterednews.wordpress.com/2010/03/22/an-open-letter-to-conservatives/  for a wonderful, fully cited essay.
