So there's NO religious extremists in the US who have ANY political or other influence?? riiight.

Did I say that? No.

I said they don't wield the sort of influence that others seem to think they wield.

Those issues still exist with the far right religious nuts...who some seem to think (erroneously, I might add) wield some kind of influence in this country.

No, this is what you said - that the religious right (your words) are ERRONEOUSLY thought to have 'some kind' of influence in your country.

Ah, but NOW you're changing your mind and saying they DO have some kind of influence yeah? OK thanks.

Please try and quote yourself correctly otherwise you look a bit like you don't know what you yourself said.

They do have influence which by its nature is not obvious.

It's fairly clear what I was saying. This is an on-line forum, not a fucking court of law.

LOL. It's an internet forum, I know. You're taken on what you write, not what you might have it in your head when you wrote it. You said one thing, I call you on it, then you say 'oh but I didn't mean what I said, I meant this other thing'. What you said is one thing. What I 'construed' or 'interpreted' you said are, er, the same as what you said in the first place. Not my problem if you changed your mind and softened your position a bit mate.
