Poll question: Is ALAN KEYES crazy?
not to use a bush way of thinking, but yes or no?

I am listening to Randi Rhoads and she is playing his sound clips from faux. This guy likes to use 20 dollar words but probably doesn't know what they mean.

1. Yep, just another Slavish Bootlicking Bushevik Toady
And that has NOTHING to do with race (apologies if anyone got offended and thought it did)

ALL Busheviks are Slavish Bootlicking Toadies...

17. Beat me to it
I don't know why Crazy Keyes makes me think of a shithouse rat, but apparently I'm not the only one.

4. No, he knows what they mean...
...I've dealt with enough "rational sounding" white nationalists to know that you can be intelligent, crazy and completely wrong. He knows what words mean, all the better to misuse them.

7. The better question...
...is "How crazy is Alan Keyes?" with choices ranging from "slighlty" off" to a crescendo of "believes his own rhetoric"

6. I don’t think he’s crazy at all… <m>
Nor is he unintelligent. I think that calling him crazy gives him an excuse. I think he’s a hateful and dangerous person.

10. Just in LOVE with himself just a wee bit too much
As Calpundit pointed out today:

The Corner's Rick Brookhiser:

"Alan Keyes's opinion of himself and the universe's opinion of him have fatally parted company."

12. Crazy with a capital "C"
I once heard him refer to abortion clinics as "abortionaries". Anyway he said 911 was God's way of punishing us for abortion clinics. He certainly falls under the queer-bird category.

13. I think the word that best describes him is opportunist. He will say
anything and everything that will make him a dollar.And he will be laughing to himself how he fooled the white man once again.In this he is joined by another distinguished opportunist,Dinesh D'Souza, who writes full heavy books on what the power structure wants to hear.He has also found the time to squire Laura Ingraham around.And,they both join the queen of opportunism, Condolizard Rice herself who will not say anything that the massa( er, husband) won't approve of.

15. The word "crazy" is not entirely P.C.
Keyes is "experiencing psychiatric disability". :-)

16. mad as a hatter
crazy as a coot
loony tunes
severly disconnected from reality
a screw loose
bats in the belfry
a few bricks short of a load
the lights are on but no ones home
the elevator doesnt go to the top
experiencing an alternate reality
not playing with a full deck

but its going to be a very entertaining senate race

20. Personally,
I've not heard him speak much. But I did just hear a woman from Illinois on NPR (said she is independent and votes both rep and Dem) say something to the effect, "Since this is radio I'll be polite and say that Alan Keyes is a stark raving lunatic who has no business on the air or in politics."
