Fellow Liberals!! Purge Yourselves of HATE!!!
The latest (well, not entirely new) tack taken by the looney Right: let loose with a barrage of cheap, ad hominem attacks on anyone to their left. When said Al-Qaeda collaborating America-hating commie pinko liberal scum get a little upset at being labeled as such... Well, e.g. straight outta Rush's playbook: "These people are poisoned. They have literally been poisoned by their hate."

To the Sean Hannitys and O'Reillys of the world, I ask, do the words OFF and F**K mean anything to you?

Robert

3. Hi
Said with the affected tone (but with no less sincerity :hi: ) of a 'Southern Gentleman':

Well thank you MzMolly, that's very sweet of you.

"We can't continue to let them define the terms of the debate."

AMEN!!!

Robert

2. I finally had it a couple of weeks ago
We have an electronic BB at work, and a Reichwinger made reference to "America-haters." I let him have it with both barrels. I love this country, and I'm trying to save it from BushCo.

He obviously meant to let that little zinger slide while he made another point about how great things are going in Iraq. But his point got completely buried in his need to defend himself for accusing me of hating America. It was wonderful.

We can't continue to let them define the terms of the debate.

4. I've been turning it around
...with a fair amount of success, pointing out that Dumbya is an elitist preppy who plays at being a cowboy but who is afraid of horses and has never done a day's work in his life, and who is LAUGHING at everybody who buys his act!

Pointing it out this way seems to take it from the recesses of their minds and punch it right into their guts. It works. Try it.

7. I've also had some success
I've also had some success pointing out he isn't a conservative. Several of the conservatives agree with that right off the bat. I told a nice Republican lady who plans to vote for Kerry that I don't consider Bush a Republican, either.

Howard Dean -- "He isn't a Republican. He isn't a conservative. He's a dangerous radical."

9. learn something new every day...
Poisoned by hate??? Silly me, I didn't know there was something wrong with hating those who oppress anyone that isn't a straight white upper-class Christian male. I should thank Rush for enlightening me.:puke: ;-)

10. Reminds me of this quote..
"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

-- Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials

11. Hmmmmm...
Perhaps Goering was Karl Rove's previous incarnation...

Edited on Tue Nov-01-05 07:20 PM by LiberalPartisan
I live in the South and I proudly display an "F the President" sicker in my rear window. I get so much shit for it you wouldn't believe it.
When confronted, which has been often, I state politely yet firmly "If you dislike the First Ammendment I suggest you repeal it. Until then FUCK OFF FASCIST!"

15. Yes, but then they'll say...
...of course you have the right of free speech, but be prepared to pay for it...perfect strangers feel free to verbally attack you and/or vandalize your property. I live in the South too. I had a Kerry lawn sign during the election. Apparently, a Humvee stuffed with republicans didn't like it. My lawn was destroyed. Too many ignorant yahoos who would rather cut off their foot than admit they made a mistake...ever.

16. poisoned?
I think a person can be poisoned by hate.

But what is hate? Are we to believe that if we disagree, then we hate?

19. I think it is easier for arrogant people who think they are always right,
they never make mistakes, and they never accept responsibility for anything. Some people cannot handle power and totally abuse their position. Like Bush, I don't hate him, I'm mostly bumfuzzled how a man who obviously does not have a high IQ and may possibly have a low IQ, got elected to the most powerful position in the world. I get angry with decisions and policies, but if I fill my mind up with all the hate this party and their speakers spew out toward liberals just because we disagree. Just think how they would be if we did actually hate them?

liberalism a mental disorder like schizophrenia. I wonder if he has ever listened to his own opinions and ideas. After a couple shows, I cut him off.

Limpballs had a show one day and was talking about God. He explained that Liberals did not pray to the same God that HE and the other conservatives pray to. I always thought that all religions, basically, prayed to the same almighty; however, according to Mr. OxyContin, now political parties have different Gods.

Speaking of God and Christianity, I wonder when Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson will actually find the God that talks to them and tells Robertson to say on his TV Show all over this Earth that the reason Katrina destroyed New Orleans is because the TV network allowed Ellen Degenerous to host the Emmys. And I think we all can remember Falwell's comments after 9/11. Also, the Religious Right, Moral Majority (whatever you want to call them), say God was punishing the U.S. because of legal abortions because the weather channel was showing the dangerous storm and it's movement. They claimed the pictures looked like an 8-week-old fetus. It looked like a shrimp to me, but they talk to God, so they must be right.

God does not talk to me, but isn't it strange that all the states that have suffered from these disasters were ONLY in the RED STATES!! Coincidence . . . maybe . . . but now another hurricane is headed for Flordia. Hmmmmmm, . . . wonder if the Liberal God has been trying to tell the conservatives that he is very unhappy about their putting Dumbya back in control of this Country. Just like the rest of the World asked how could 50 million people be so dmb.

Do they not comprehend the words that come out of their mouth's at times? Can they not see how stupid they sound? Will Michelle, Ann Coulter wannabe, Malkin accept the fact that she will never be blonde or taller? Will Anorexia Coulter finally admit that with an Adam's Apple like hers, that everyone will always question if she was ever a man? Will Sean Hannity's head continue to enlarge until it explodes? Will Limpballs ever have to face a jury of his peers? Why is it when someone is poor, they go straight to jail; however, if you have money and you are busted, your high-paid lawyer simply instructs the judge that you are immediately going into rehab? Will Conservative Radio quit spewing hate, hate, HATE?

One last thought. Why does Cheney make comments about how he would "VETO" any bill that he didn't like that came across his desk, when he has no VETO rights. Only Dumbya does. Well he has the power but since everything is Republican based and benefited Was this a Freaudian slip? God only knows.

Oh yeah, what is up with Bush saying we don't torture, and then Cheney stating publically the above comments about vetoing? Do they no longer speak? Did Cheney move Dumbya out of the Oval Office?

So many questions.

(apologize for any mispellings. My spell check is not working?????

21. Brilliant
I do not want to brag but I have been begging for people to take the fight to the streets. On my blog there is a list of phone numbers and some emails.(including rove's and w's). Let's deluge them with opinion from the left. It might shake their confidence to see an overwhelming tide from the left. Whose with me?
