The Eastern Taliban gets away with murder where the Western Taliban still doesn't but that is a minor difference.
For me this patently absurd sentence ends any serious discussion before it gets started. The idea that there is only a "minor" difference between the Taliban which uses terror and murder to move their agenda and the Tea Party which uses lawful means to promote its agenda is profoundly stupid. I'd be completely embarrassed to make such a obviously moronic claim.
Yes, this was an absurd thread from the get go and was never intended to advance serious discussion.
