"Civility?" Attack Watch Colors "Attackers" Faces Blood-Red
Pundit Press ^ | 9/16/11 | Aurelius

Posted on 09/16/2011 2:51:19 PM PDT by rightistight

Attack Watch, a terrible George Orwellian idea to begin with, has gone from bad to horrendous. Just a few months ago, Democrats wailed that Republicans were completely responsible for a “climate of fear” that gets people killed. Of course, it wasn’t true then and it isn’t true now.

Regardless, Democrats called for “civility.” Since then, there have been literally thousands of violent things that liberals have spewed, from a Facebook group that calls for the murder of Sarah Palin to union heads calling for a “war.” Now there is Attack Watch, which continues the Left’s move towards violence and chaos.

The “incivility” of Attack Watch is clear. Not only does the website prominently feature the word “Attack,” but the site exclusively uses the same colors as the Nazi flag.

Even worse, however, is Attack Watch’s attempts to stop “smears.” First, they state the claim. For example, Governor Rick Perry’s claim that President Obama is “thumbing his nose at Israel.” Second, they try to state the “proof” to the contrary. So, for this example, the evidence Attack Watch gives that Obama has not changed policy is that… some people made “remarks” that he has been good to Israel. Not actions, but "remarks" from Obama and some foreigners.

Last, but not least, Attack Watch also features a picture of the “attacker” who made the claim. So, if you go to an article in which they attack Sarah Palin for saying ObamaCare is “corrupt,” you are greeted with this picture:

That’s right, a blood-red picture with the emboldened word “Attack” above it.

Obama's People [more colloquially defined in newsworthy-speak, Holder's People] see this stuff and think "Racists"...

They, the 'red tints' are attacking our guy and we need to protect him....

This site is intended to incite Obama's defenders into a a slowly escalating riotous frenzy.....

The left sure didn’t laugh about the “crosshairs” - they got weeks of coverage on the teaparty terrorists with their “leader” Sarah. I had fun with it yesterday but this isn’t fun but I guess different strokes

I even saved the video and uploaded it to them!

Hahahaha!

My count is up to 17 reported subversive elements engaged in blasphemous acts against the One. Judging from the number of emails soliciting money I get from them, somebody in that brain trust must be at least sifting through them...haven't seen any troops breaking down doors, but, there is a large pickup with Wisconsin plates parked on my street.

If you put in your email and zip and click enter, you get to the next page that requires personal information and a DONATION! You can not go past this page without giving some of your green! I was curious, but not enough to give even one cent to these people.

It’s not funny in the least. This kind of behavior should scare the living hell out of good people everywhere.

It does scare the hell out of me. But remember, laughter is a powerful weapon. You can disarm that website and any influence it has faster with jokes than with anything else.

Thanks so much for the link. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a good Hitler parody.
