Roberts column letters run from hot to hotter (LIBERAL COLUMNIST SLAMMED BY 'RIGHT-WING WEB SITE')

Chicago Sun-Times ^ | August 3, 2005 | S. JENNIFER HUNTER

[Lazamataz]

I have drawn even more e-mail from rabid writers -- we used to call them rednecks -- across the land.

What an elitist creep.

[Ma3lst0rm]

If those are the best of her "hate mail" then I can say I'm proud of conservative red necks for holding back their ire. lmbo I do think this illustrates how shallow Liberals are, they don't want to argue positions on a factual basis by sharing points and offering counter points. No, instead they offer empty rhetoric devoid of reason and filled with self affirming drivel as if they were patting themselves on the back for being so far above their critics as to not merit a well thought out (if liberals are even capable of such a thing) response.

She's a typical liberal, labeling her critics "Rednecks" so their valid arguments will be automatically dismissed.

Republicans need to start yelling "McCarthyism". As much as I hate that term, that's what they're doing to Roberts.

>>>>>>But the gist of my commentary was not about abortion rights, it was about the ill-advised nomination of another white man to the Supreme Court. It's a sad commentary when so many American men become so vitriolic about a female journalist expressing concern that there might be only one woman and one black man on our country's highest court. Hello?

The Quota System. It will never die.

[Redgirl]

Her article also has that "I'm a poor, defenseless woman getting picked on by evil white men" slant, too.
Boo Hoo.

[NittanyLion]

Setting aside the foolishness of the author's contention that SCOTUS seats should be reserved for a particular race/gender/ethnicity, let's concentrate on this assertion:

I also expressed concerns about preserving Roe vs. Wade, which I consider a fundamental health-care right for women. This is a perspective most Americans hold although you'd never know it from the self-righteous zealots like Stanton who think extreme tactics will win converts to their points of view.

Some 58 percent of all respondents said they thought "abortion, when the mother's life is not in danger" was morally unacceptable. About 66 percent of Catholics agreed. Source

Sorry, Ms. Hunter. You're in the minority on this one.

[EmilyGeiger]

None of the letters she posted sounded rabid to me, instead they sounded reasonable and logical. She must be so far left she doesn't know what reason and logic is.

[Jim Noble]

we used to call them rednecks

Well, I for one am very proud to be grouped by association with our redneck caucus-but I grew up in New York, have lived in the Northeast my whole life, and, unlike Ms. Hunter, I grew up in the wonderful 1950s.

Also unlike Ms. Hunter, I am a US citizen and did not get my job by marrying my boss.

She should drag her sorry Canadian ass back home before a few good old boys take a break from NASCAR and open up a can of whoopass on her-hmmm? Maybe that's the foundation of a good op-ed in my hometown paper?

...I have drawn even more e-mail from rabid writers -- we used to call them rednecks -- across the land...

Rednecks have changed over the years. We used to sit on the couch in the front yard drinking beer all day. We now sit on the couch in the front yard drinking beer all day writing rabid emails.

[EQAndyBuzz]

I finally figured out a way to take the abortion fight to liberals.

Bumper Sticker

"I AM PRO CHOICE... I CHOOSE LIFE "

Anything you do or say regarding abortion, just say you are also pro choice and you choose life. This will force abortion advocates to say they are either pro death or pro abortion?

We need to use CHOICE more often.

[bird4four4]

So she's saying if she just looked at the resume and the qualifications this candidate is fine. But the she looks at him and sees a white catholic male with a nice family life and flatly rejects him. Isn't that exactly what liberals have been fighting against for so many decades. If it was exactly the same but when you look and saw a Hispanic Lady and decided to throw out her perfectly good resume, you'd be prosecuted for Equal Opertunity violation.

[BibChr]

Though I wish more would bestir themselves to, well, make a stir. This writer lives in the delusion that abortion is a woman's issue, when it is actually men who MORE favor abortion-on-demand. For obvious and shameful-to-my-sex reasons.

I also expressed concerns about preserving Roe vs. Wade, which I consider a fundamental health-care right for women.

I love the way liberals frame issues. If they are so secure in their positions why can't they at least call it what it is? Fundamental health-care right for women is nothing but liberal speak for abortion.

Jennifer demonstrates she's a bigot and has no clue she's doing so.   I assume she just got out of Leftwing Indoctrination University.

[jigsaw]

Thanks for posting her pic.

Your tagline ("We will all soon reap what the ignorant are now sowing." ~ Victor Davis Hanson) is most appropriate for her.

[Osage Orange]

Here are excerpts from some of the printable letters I received:

Is it just me...or were those excerpts not fairly logical, decent arguments?

I guess...Hunter can't handle some serf peons...questioning/challenging her.

LOL!!

FRegards,

Feel like I'm missing something. What's wrong with being a redneck?

[MinuteGal]

Aha!

So she's married to the publisher, John Cruiskshank, of the Sun-Times, eh. Thanks for this inside info.

He's not too dumb. Keep the elitist liberal spin in the daily rag.....and the money in the family.
