Pamela Geller and her Atlas Shrugs blog.
Hate, fear, bigotry and money.
I wonder if she ever feels like all she's done is given in to temptation.
Built into each of us is a paranoia,
an evolutionary strategy selected for survival.
Fear of the unknown, the different, the 'strange'.
Allowing our cerebral cortex to temper and contain these instincts -
to control them with humaneness and tolerance
is part of what makes us human.
It's not clever to exploit the instinct - she's just a thug.
