A number of people already refer to the conservative religious movement in the US as the “American Taliban”, fortunately, that can’t be easily applied to the “Godless” left.
But as we move into another political season in the next year (do we ever leave?) we’re going to hear more and more about the “base” of each of the parties. Since one of the meanings for “al-Qaeda” is “the base”, is it time for Democrats to start referring to the “Republican base” as the “Republican Qaeda”? You know it’s only a matter of time before they start trying to stick us with it.
