On the Left: Hysteria and Name-Calling

"If you like God in government, get ready for the rapture," Bill Moyers told his PBS audience the Friday after the election. Republicans will have "monopoly control" of the government, and will "turn their radical ideology into the law of the land." This means "forcing pregnant women to surrender control over the own lives," and "using the taxing power to transfer wealth from working people to the rich," as well as "giving corporations a free hand to eviscerate the environment."

Tee Hee, Tee Hee! Now pull the plug on PBS and NPR and no more Moyers no more Keillor. These ingrates, stealing tax payer money to promote the far left agenda. Small town America is about independence, freedom and self reliance and God; not Marxism. The real ugliness of these creatures is exposed. Talk about hate.

"If the liberal class can't offer anything but hysteria and name-calling, the future of their cause looks bleak indeed"

Wow! This is such a great statement. It describes the dems to a tee!

The true DemocRAT colors are now showing. The true DemocRATic color is no color at all -- but a void. It is a black hole that sucks up everything, relases nothing, and has no life or purpose but to destroy everything.

The conscience was also majordomo of the primordial attack-ad campaign against Barry Goldwater during the 1964 campaign: the girl incinerated while picking a daisy, hands tearing up a Social Security card.

I was only a kid back then; I vaguely remember the daisy picker commercial, but not the hands tearing up the Social Security card. However, it might behoove the Republicans to use this commercial in the next election -

"In 1964, Democrats were warning that if you elect a Republican, you will lose your Social Security - after 40 years, they are still crying wolf.

...when critics call Nancy Pelosi a San Francisco Democrat----they're guilty of "queer-baiting by proxy."

I'm sorry. But what is this supposed to mean? For heaven's sake, you've going to insult me, at least have the courtesy to do it without the gobbledegook.

[Texas Mom]

Rush says the Democrats are funny when they aren't in power. I think they are dangerous.. a snake usually is it's most dangerous when it's cornered..

[AFPhys]

they're guilty of "queer-baiting by proxy."

Gee... and here I thought what I was doing was properly called "fag-baiting"

[Badger1]

Do not think these themes are confined to the fringe, unless you decide the New York Times has moved there.

The New York Times has been on the liberal fringe for a long time now.

[oprahstheantichrist]

You forgot the National Endowment for the "Arts!"

I think they are dangerous.. a snake usually is it's most dangerous when it's cornered.

But, they're not snakes - they're rodents.

Get a shovel...

If the liberal class can't offer anything but hysteria and name-calling, the future of their cause looks bleak indeed.

Was else do the impeached *One, Serpenthead, Bela, McAwful, Puff, Little Dick, the Hildabeast, and the rest of the Libdem/Chicoms really have to offer?
