LOL!” 11:38:26 AM 6/22/06 Typical “"The entire country may disagree with me, but I don't understand the necessity for patriotism," Maines resumes, through gritted teeth. "Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why? You can like where you live and like your life, but as for loving the whole country... I don't see why people care about patriotism."” 11:44:37 AM 6/22/06 “I heart Natalie Maines, I got their latest CD...totally rocks.” 11:46:29 AM 6/22/06 “Actually it was pretty easy. The language and the historical era are pretty good guides and wherever it said "America", it was there to mislead. I got one wrong and it was a dumb mistake. I went with Hitler for "These scum manufacture more than three quarters of the so-called 'public opinion,'...To give an accurate description of this process and depict it in all its falsehood and improbability, one would have to write volumes."” 11:47:00 AM 6/22/06 “..you can tell mainly just from the syntax, etc. Hitler talks like he's from like the 1930s or whatever.” lyra 11:15:14 AM 6/22/06 OMG! I was thinking just like lyra. I don't feel so good now.” 11:51:56 AM 6/22/06 “I got that one right because Hitler was less of a name caller.” 11:52:58 AM 6/22/06 “Since you were kind enough to post that quote, tell us how and why you agree or disagree with Natalie Maines statement in 500 words or less, Stovie.” 11:55:47 AM 6/22/06 “Cause she's stupit. LOL! I don't care what she says. Freedom of speech baybay! Scratch that. I hate her for advancing the precept that bubble gum cross over country is good. last edited: 6/22/06 12:05:45 PM” 12:03:28 PM 6/22/06 “I think it is cool how some people become VICTIMS and they are then placed above criticism. LOL....And they are victims for stuff they never actually were involved in.” 12:10:12 PM 6/22/06 “Trust me Nigal, their new CD is not bubblegum...and I would know, seeing as I'm a connoisseur of such delights as Hillary Duff, etc!” 12:15:31 PM 6/22/06 “"OMG! I was thinking just like lyra. I don't feel so good now.” conk 11:51:56 AM 6/22/06 What, that time of month?” 12:16:39 PM 6/22/06 “10 right/4 wrong.

One of the reasons I backpack is that it can really bring back life into perspective. I have seen the insanity of "emotional connection" screw up people on both sides of the line. Heck the lady who pulled in front of Rothlesburger is getting DEATH THREATS???? Hitler worked at the time he worked becuase NO ONE stood up to him. I still wonder in 1936 when he went into the Rhineland...if the French and Brits had expended a few thousand troops if it would have made an overall difference in history.” 12:51:02 PM 6/22/06 “Well, ya just can't put the genie back in the bottle. I believe Hitler had a lot of people bumped off who might have stood in his way. Stalin took similar measures.” 1:22:28 PM 6/22/06 “Hellen Keller was a liberal? Well, I'll be damned!

A stinging rebuke from arclite. Take that, you oxycontin-addicted bastards!” 3:16:18 PM 6/22/06 “More liberal hate speech By Jeff Jacoby, Globe Columnist | December 30, 2004 AS IT DOES every year, the empty folder I labeled "Liberal Hate Speech" in January had grown to a thick sheaf of clippings by December. 2004 wasn't even a week old when two videos explicitly comparing George W. Bush to Adolf Hitler appeared on the website of the liberal group MoveOn. They were entries in a contest soliciting "really creative ads" that would help voters "understand the truth about George Bush." So began another year in which liberals engaged in, and mostly got away with, grotesque slanders and slurs about conservatives -- the kind of poisonous rhetoric that should be beyond the pale in a decent society. Once again, too many on the left -- not crackpots from the fringe, but mainstream players and pundits -- chose to demonize conservatives as monsters rather than debate their ideas on the merits. As in years past, Republicans were almost routinely associated with Nazi Germany. Former Vice President Al Gore referred to GOP activists as "brown shirts." Newsday columnist Hugh Pearson likened the Republican National Convention to the "Nazi rallies held in Germany during the reign of Adolf Hitler." Linda Ronstadt said that the Republican victory on Election Day meant "we've got a new bunch of Hitlers." Chuck Turner, a Boston city councilor, smeared National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice as "a tool of white leaders," like "a Jewish person working for Hitler." Such Nazi labeling is no less disgusting when it comes from Republicans, of course. According to Bob Woodward, Secretary of State Colin Powell described Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith as running a separate government out of his "Gestapo office." Commentator Ralph Peters, writing in the New York Post, accused Democrat Howard Dean of using the tactics of Hitler and Goebbels to silence his competitors. Too many conservatives and libertarians refer to antismoking extremists as "tobacco Nazis," or to the humorless critics of fast food as "food Nazis." Whether it comes from the right or the left, language like that is vile. Overwhelmingly, though, political hate speech today comes from the left. It has increasingly become a habit of leftist argumentation to simply dismiss conservative ideas as evil or noxious rather than rebut them with facts and evidence. That is why there was no uproar when Cameron Diaz declared that rape might be legalized if women didn't turn out to vote for John Kerry. Or when Walter Cronkite told Larry King that the videotape of Osama bin Laden that surfaced just before the election was "probably set up" by Karl Rove. Or when Alfred A. Knopf published Nicholson Baker's "Checkpoint," a novel in which two Bush-haters talk about assassinating the president. "I'm going to kill that bastard," one character rages. Bill Moyers warned a television audience on Election Day that if Kerry won narrowly, "I think there'd be an effort to mount a coup, quite frankly. . . . The right wing is not going to accept it." Chevy Chase, hosting a People for the American Way awards ceremony at the Kennedy Center in Washington, slammed Bush as "an uneducated, real, lying schmuck." A cartoon by the widely syndicated Ted Rall described Pat Tillman, who gave up his NFL career to enlist in the Army and was then killed in Afghanistan, as a "sap" and an "idiot." So many examples, so little space. A political flier in Tennessee, depicting Bush as a mentally disabled sprinter, bore the message: "Voting for Bush is like running in the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded." The St. Petersburg, Fla., Democratic Club took out an ad calling for the death of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. "Then there's Rumsfeld who said of Iraq, `We have our good days and our bad days,' " the ad read. "We should put this S.O.B. up against a wall and say, `This is one of our bad days,' and pull the trigger." Fantasies of murder likewise animated British pundit Charlie Brooker, who ended his Oct. 24 column in the Guardian with a plea for Bush's death: "John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley Jr. -- where are you now that we need you?" Brooker later assured readers that he "deplores violence of any kind" and had meant his call for an assassin only as "an ironic joke." But the "joke" of left-wing hate speech stopped being funny a long time ago. There is room in the marketplace of ideas for passionate, even angry, rhetoric, but there are also lines that, as a matter of decency and civic hygiene, should not be crossed. The violent invective so often hurled at conservatives pollutes the democratic stream from which all of us drink. Democrats no less than Republicans should want to shut those polluters down.” 3:18:36 PM 6/22/06 “"Overwhelmingly, though, political hate speech today comes from the left. It has increasingly become a habit of leftist argumentation to simply dismiss conservative ideas as evil or noxious rather than rebut them with facts and evidence." "When lawlessness is abroad in the land, the same thing will happen here that happened in Nazi Germany. Many of those people involved in Adolph Hitler were Satanists. Many of them were homosexuals. The two things seem to go together." —Pat Robertson, The 700 Club "I tell people don't kill all the liberals. Leave enough so we can have two on every campus — living fossils — so we will never forget what these people stood for." —Rush Limbaugh, Denver Post "We need to execute people like John Walker in order to physically intimidate liberals, by making them realize that they can be killed, too." —Ann Coulter, at the Conservative Political Action Conference Yeah, I'd say there's enough of this crap floating around the internet to provide ample proof of outrageousness and idiocy on both sides. But hey, if the brown shirt fits, wear it!” 3:36:02 PM 6/22/06 “"just another druggie dead" -rush upon hearing of jerry garcias death” 3:38:37 PM 6/22/06 “Hillbilly Heroin Junkie fans? LMAO” 3:39:01 PM 6/22/06 “A Year Of Ugly Liberal Slurs By Jeff Jacoby Boston Globe Columnist 12/30/1999. Remember the wave of outrage that swept the nation after Charlton Heston, the president of the National Rifle Association, told a radio interviewer that the best way to deal with liberal filmmaker Spike Lee would be to ''shoot him with a .44-caliber Bulldog'' revolver? Remember the scathing editorials and the full-page ads blasting Heston's appalling remark? You don't remember? Don't feel bad. It never happened. Heston never said that about Lee. Lee said it about Heston. He was speaking in May, just a few weeks after the slaughter in Littleton, Colo. Asked for his thoughts on Heston, Lee recommended assassinating him with a .44 special. A conservative who made such a comment about a liberal would have been crushed under an avalanche of denunciation. But when a liberal talks that way about a conservative, the media rarely notice. Welcome to my yearly column on liberal hate speech and the double standard that shields it. By ''hate speech,'' I don't mean language that is merely insulting. When Rosie O'Donnell, hosting a Hillary Clinton fund-raiser in October, described Rudolph Giuliani as New York's ''village idiot'' and compared his looks to ''a Pez dispenser,'' she was simply being obnoxious. But when liberals liken conservatives to Hitler or call for them to be killed - that's hate speech. It isn't only Spike Lee who advocates death for those who have the temerity to hold non-left-wing views. When Elia Kazan, the bete noir of Hollywood's aging Reds, was awarded the Oscar for lifetime achievement, the haters were out in force. ''I'll be watching, hoping someone shoots him,'' said Abraham Polonsky, who was blacklisted for his Communist sympathies in the 1950s. ''It would no doubt be a thrill.'' The Washington Post's Richard Cohen commented on the fact that Newt Gingrich was cheating on his wife even as he was denouncing Bill Clinton's moral failings. ''For hypocrisy, for sheer gall,'' Cohen wrote, ''Gingrich should be hanged.'' Even the comics aren't free of death threats. The main character in Aaron McGruder's ''Boondocks'' is Huey, a militant black student. In one strip Huey considers titles for his report on ''the black neoconservative movement and its most famous champion.'' His first choice: ''Ward Connerly Should Be Beaten by Raekwon the Chef With a Spiked Bat.'' Central to the leftist mentality is the belief that conservative opinions are not simply misguided, they're evil. Conservatives are not erring brethren to be reasoned with, they're moral heretics to be cursed. And so liberals routinely reach for vicious epithets when talking about nonliberals: Nazis, racists, the Ku Klux Klan. ''Conservative legal interest groups,'' says Atlanta Mayor Bill Campbell, ''such as the Center for Individual Rights and the Southeastern Legal Foundation'' - which oppose racial preferences and quotas - ''are ... a homogenized version of the Klan. They may have traded in their sheets for suits ... but it's the same old racism.'' Newsweek's archliberal Eleanor Clift was one of many who erupted with venom when Bill Clinton was impeached. ''That herd of managers from the House,'' she hissed in January, ''I mean, frankly all they were missing was white sheets. They're like night riders.'' The left-leaning Arkansas Times spat poison at the independent counsel. ''Kenneth Starr,'' the paper editorialized, ''is cunning, ruthless, and about as well-mannered as Heinrich Himmler.'' In the Los Angeles Times, Karen Grigsby Bates wrote, ''Whenever I hear Trent Lott speak, I immediately think of nooses decorating trees. Big trees, with black bodies swinging.'' Cartoonist Paul Conrad, also of the L.A. Times, drew a sketch of Buford Furrow - the bigot who opened fire in a Jewish community center, then murdered a Filipino mailman - and labeled it: ''A faith-based compassionate conservative.'' Republicans opposing a minimum-wage hike, charged US Representative Major Owens of New York, are like foreign leaders who support ''ethnic cleansing'' - i.e., mass killing. Then there was the proposal in Florida to raise funds for adoption agencies through a new specialty license plate bearing the logo ''Choose Life.'' There are already 45 such plates, which promote everything from protecting dolphins to Special Olympics. But a prolife message was too much for state Senator Skip Campbell, who fretted that senators would next be asked to approve a plate reading ''Be a Nazi.'' But for sheer filth, nothing in 1999 topped Salon's hate-filled attack on Ann Coulter, a well-known Washington lawyer and Clinton critic. In June, Coulter wrote a nonpolitical column lamenting the state of romance in Washington. Soon after, the Web magazine Salon, an avidly pro-Clinton publication, launched a malignant personal attack. It purported to offer 11 tips for improving her love life. Among them: ''Quit injecting yourself with your own urine,'' ''Stop being a mean #&%!$,'' and ''Get your head out of your ass.'' It urged her to tape a sign in her kitchen reading, ''Men don't want to date castrating #&%!$es.'' And that's not to mention the stuff that can't be repeated in a daily paper. If a conservative Web site had hurled such vileness at, say, Cheryl Mills, Clinton's young attorney, there would have been a furious outcry. It would have become a national scandal. Pundits and talk show hosts would have torn the Web site to shreds. But Salon is liberal and Coulter is not. So nobody said a thing.” 4:00:09 PM 6/22/06 “The most absurd reaction in this whole debate has come from the propaganda spewing media. They often ignore leftists slurs but create a huge public "controversy" around right-wing slurs. And some idiots still don't understand bias. How the Media Vote. Surveys of journalists’ self-reported voting habits show them backing the Democratic candidate in every presidential election since 1964, including landslide losers George McGovern, Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis. In 2004, a poll conducted by the University of Connecticut found journalists backed John Kerry over George W. Bush by a greater than two-to-one margin. Journalists’ Political Views. Compared to their audiences, journalists are far more likely to say they are Democrats or liberals, and they espouse liberal positions on a wide variety of issues. A 2004 poll by the Pew Research Center for The People & The Press found five times more journalists described themselves as “liberal” as said they were “conservative.” How the Public Views the Media. In increasing numbers, the viewing audiences recognize the media’s liberal tilt. Gallup polls have consistently found that three times as many see the media as “too liberal” as see a media that is “too conservative.” A 2005 survey conducted for the American Journalism Review found nearly two-thirds of the public disagreed with the statement, “The news media try to report the news without bias,” and 42 percent of adults disagreed strongly. Admissions of Liberal Bias. A number of journalists have admitted that the majority of their brethren approach the news from a liberal angle. During the 2004 presidential campaign, for example, Newsweek’s Evan Thomas predicted that sympathetic media coverage would boost Kerry’s vote by “maybe 15 points,” which he later revised to five points. In 2005, ex-CBS News President Van Gordon Sauter confessed he stopped watching his old network: “The unremitting liberal orientation finally became too much for me.” Denials of Liberal Bias. Many journalists continue to deny the liberal bias that taints their profession. During the height of CBS’s forged memo scandal during the 2004 campaign, Dan Rather insisted that the problem wasn’t his bias, it was his anybody who criticized him. “People who are so passionately partisan politically or ideologically committed basically say, ‘Because he won’t report it our way, we’re going to hang something bad around his neck and choke him with it, check him out of existence if we can, if not make him feel great pain,’” Rather told USA Today in September 2004. “They know that I’m fiercely independent and that’s what drives them up a wall.”” 4:07:40 PM 6/22/06 ““A Year Of Ugly Liberal Slurs By Jeff Jacoby Boston Globe Columnist 12/30/1999. Remember the wave of outrage that swept the nation after Charlton Heston, the president of the National Rifle Association, told a radio interviewer that the best way to deal with liberal filmmaker Spike Lee would be to ''shoot him with a .44-caliber Bulldog'' revolver? Remember the scathing editorials and the full-page ads blasting Heston's appalling remark? That is such bullcrap! The Bulldog is a .44 Special.” 4:09:47 PM 6/22/06 Dance Puppets, Dance!!! Sell More Books!!!! “"It hurts me when I write a column and I don't get Liberals hysterical and foaming at the mouth ... that is their natural reaction ... Whittaker Chambers said, 'People never get upset when lies are told about them they get upset when truth is told.'" - Ann Coulter [VBG]” 7:58:55 PM 6/22/06 “In his book, Bias, Goldberg has an entire chapter called, “How Clinton cured the Homeless Problem.” He documents the number of stories, that ran in the major media outlets, about homelessness during Reagan and Bush years vs. the number of stories run during the Clinton years. The numbers don’t lie. The media drastically reduced its reporting on homelessness during Clinton’s term. Did homelessness suddenly end during that time? This reporting on “civility” is supposed to be informational journalism. It’s not Rush Limbaugh, Michael Moore, Ann Coulter, Al Franken type inflammatory opinion. The mainstream media is supposed to give us unbiased information. It ain’t happening. I watched that NBC News report on the level of political discourse in our country. The first thing that was obvious was that the report made it seem as if this was a fairly new phenomenon (did it start with Ann Coulter?). As the 1999 article shows, it is not. It’s just that the media ignores most of the inflammatory speech coming from the left. Then the report showed three instances of inflammatory public discourse. NBC showed two examples of right-wing inflammatory speech and one example of left-wing inflammatory speech. That’s fair and balanced only if you flunked math. Leftists have been denying media bias for years. How deep into their own BS can their denial take them? Check out this website: http://www.mrc.org/notablequotables/2005/nq20050228.asp This is outrageous! This is not supposed to be opinion journalism. This represents the quality of informational journalism we get in this country. It’s one of the reasons I spend more time criticizing the left than the right. The left’s denial about this is overwhelming. I’m not as worried about whose reporting on the BS coming from the right. The media does a reasonably competent job there. I am worried about the level of BS that’s allowed to go unexamined on the left. Polls show the public is worried about the economy. Is this because they have looked at GDP and unemployment data and concluded that the economy is in bad shape? Those are the traditional indicators that economists and the media use to measure the economy. No, it’s because the media dialog has shifted to gas prices and the deficit. GDP and unemployment figures show the economy to be in good shape. So how has this public perception been molded? This sort of opinion molding has happened, and continues to happen, over…and over….and over. How much denial can the leftists exhibit? Apparently it’s endless. last edited: 6/23/06 5:10:22 AM” 5:07:43 AM 6/23/06 “I love how freedom of speech extends to such note wackos as Louis Farrakahn...and others but if a "non liberal" ,makes a similar statement they are branded for life.
