The Right Wing Hates YOU! 13 Reasons to Get Out and Vote
1.The Right Wing Hates Firemen : Michael Savage


SAVAGE: Now is it any wonder why people have no respect anymore for this? I mean, really? What is the average life of a fireman today? Nine AM: Work out on the weights in the firehouse. Eleven AM: Perfect your low-fat cooking skill. One PM: Respond to a false alarm. Three PM: Take a nap. Five o'clock: It's pau hana beer time.
And then, there are far too many firehouses. There are far too many firehouses throughout America. They need to be amalgamated into single units that respond to an entirely large area. This is all part of the union-legislature complex.

2. The Right Wing Hates Women : Mark Levin

Levin to female caller: "I don't know why your husband doesn't put a gun to his temple. Get the hell out of here


Audio of Mark Levin abusing a woman.

http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200905220010

Addressing his September 4 comments, in which he called the National Organization for Women, the "National Organization of Ugly Women," Mark Levin said: "I just wanted to underscore that maybe I shouldn't have called them the National Organization of Ugly Women. For now on, it's the National Organization of Really Ugly Women

3. The Right Wing Hates Black folks : Rush Limbaugh

Obama wouldn’t have been voted president if he weren’t black. Somebody asked me over the weekend why does somebody earn a lot of money have a lot of money, because she’s black. It was Oprah. No, it can’t be. Yes, it is. There’s a lot of guilt out there, show we’re not racists, we’ll make this person wealthy and big and famous and so forth…. If Obama weren’t black he’d be a tour guide in Honolulu or he’d be teaching Saul Alinsky constitutional law or lecturing on it in Chicago.

4. The Right Wing Hates Jewish people : Sean Hannity

Gibbs: Let me ask you a question. Are you anti-Semitic?
Hannity: Not at all.
Gibbs: On your show on Sunday, the show that's named after you, right? The center piece of that show was a guy named Andy Martin.
Hannity: I know you're reading your talking points.
When I interviewed Al Sharpton, when I interviewed all these controversial figures, you see on FOX we actually interview people of all points of view whether we agree or disagree.
Gibbs: Andy Martin called a judge a crooked, slimy Jew, who has a history of lying and thieving common to....Martin when on to write that he understood better why the Holocaust took place given that Jew survivors are acting like a wolf pack...
Hannity:I find those comments despicable...
Gibbs: You put him on your show. It's the Hannity Show

5. The Right Wing Hates Victims of Katrina and 9/11 : Glenn Beck

But the second thought I had when I saw these people and they had to shut down the Astrodome and lock it down, I thought: I didn't think I could hate victims faster than the 9-11 victims. These guys -- you know it's really sad. We're not hearing anything about Mississippi. We're not hearing anything about Alabama. We're hearing about the victims in New Orleans. This is a 90,000-square-mile disaster site, New Orleans is 181 square miles. A hundred and -- 0.2 percent of the disaster area is New Orleans! And that's all we're hearing about, are the people in New Orleans. Those are the only ones we're seeing on television are the scumbags -- and again, it's not all the people in New Orleans. Most of the people in New Orleans got out! It's just a small percentage of those who were left in New Orleans, or who decided to stay in New Orleans, and they're getting all the attention. It's exactly like the 9-11 victims' families. There's about 10 of them that are spoiling it for everybody.

6. The Right Wing Hates Matthew Shephard : Laura Schlessinger

"You know what was largely responsible for that guy’s death? Those two guys who killed him did not go out looking for a homosexual to kill that night. They were shooting pool. He went to the bar. He left with two guys he thought he was gonna have sex with. He got murdered. How many women has that happened to? How many women have left bars thinking they were gonna get some action with some guy who raped and murdered and tortured and murdered them? Far more women than homosexual men have ended up dead that way, I would guess. Is that a hate crime against women? I think so but they specifically picked the woman who was willing to leave for sex. If Matthew hadn’t been willing to leave for sex, he might still be alive. That certainly doesn’t make him responsible for his own death but when you put yourself into a situation of going off to have anonymous sex with people you meet at a bar, what kind of person is gonna leave with you? Usually scum.... This was a terrible tragedy but it’s also one that might have been avoided if he had simply gone home with his friends instead of thinking he was gonna get a little."

7. The Right Wing Hates The US Constitution (and loves the Interment of Japanese-Americans in WWII): Michelle Malkin

"The politically correct myth of American 'concentration camps' has become enshrined as incontrovertible wisdom in the gullible press, postmodern academia, the cash-hungry grievance industry, and liberal Hollywood. This hijacking of history is endangering us today"(p. xx).
"Make no mistake: I am not advocating rounding up all Arabs or Muslims and tossing them into camps, but when we are under attack, 'racial profiling' -- or more precisely, threat profiling -- is justified. It is unfortunate that well-intentioned Arabs and Muslims might be burdened because of terrorists who share their race, nationality or religion. But any inconvenience, no matter how bothersome or offensive, is preferable to being incinerated at your office desk by a flaming hijacked plane" (p. xxx).
"Civil rights absolutists and ethnic lobbyists waged an intimidating campaign for reparations and redress on behalf of ethnic Japanese evacuees. In 1988, relying on the biased conclusion of a stacked federal panel that the World War II evacuation and relocation were based on 'race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership,' President Reagan issued a formal apology… The most damaging legacy of this apologia and compensation package has been its impact on national security efforts. The ethnic grievance industry and civil liberties Chicken Littles wield the reparations law like a bludgeon over the War on Terror debate"

http://www.densho.org/about/revisionism.asp

Malkin isn’t alone. A whole lot of Right Wingers hate the US Constitution:

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2010/09/rightwing-radio-poll-muslims-register/

A conservative talk radio station in San Diego has a pressing question to ask its listeners: Should "practicing Muslims" be "registered" on a national database during a time of war?
KFMB 760 AM, the San Diego home of such right-wing on-air personalities as Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Michael Savage, reportedly asked the question on its Web site Wednesday, according to Ben Dimiero at MediaMatters.
"During a time of war, should we register as many practicing Muslims as we can find in a national database?" the poll asked.



8. The Right Wing Hates Teachers : Sarah Palin

Watch Sarah Palin grimace and roll her eyes when she learns that she is talking to a teacher.

9. The Ring Wing Hates Fairness : Charles Krauthammer

Obama is a leveler. He has come to narrow the divide between rich and poor. For him the ultimate social value is fairness. Imposing it upon the American social order is his mission.
<...>
If Obama has his way, the change that is coming is a new America: “fair,” leveled and social democratic.

http://wonkette.com/407525/charles-krauthammer-despises-fairness-dagnabbit

10. The Right Wing Hates Children : The GOP
Mitch McConnell, the Republican leader in the Senate, indicated that he supported holding hearings on whether the 14th Amendment citizenship right should be abolished.
The campaign to abolish the citizenship clause has been accompanied by an accelerating xenophobic campaign against immigrants and their children. “People come here to have babies,” Lindsey Graham declared on National Public Radio. “They come here to drop a child—it’s called drop and leave. To have a child in America, they cross the border, they go to an emergency room, have a child and that child is automatically an American citizen.”
John Cornyn appeared on CBS to say, “The question is, if both parents are here illegally, should there be a reward for their illegal behavior?” Here the birth of a child is treated as a criminal act, with both the parents and the child to be punished for the offense

11. The Right Wing Hates Our Troops : John McCain
“Obama Voted for and McCain Voted Against $360 Million for Armored Vehicles for Troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. In 2005, Obama voted for and McCain voted against providing $360.8 million for armored tactical wheeled vehicles for units deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan and $5 million to establish ballistics engineering research centers at two major research institutions. The measure against which McCain voted also required such centers to advance knowledge and application of ballistics materials and procedures to improve the safety of land-based military vehicles
snip
McCain voted against providing an additional $322 million for troop equipment and body armor
Snip
McCain also has numerous votes against increased funding for veterans’ health care.

12. The Right Wing Hates the Disabled : Too numerous to count.

Rush makes fun of Michael J. Fox

Tea Baggers mock anyone who is sick:

13. The Right Wing Hates Friendship : George Will

Asked for a "final thought" on the president's speech last night, conservative columnist George Will chose to focus on the fact that Obama was able to wrap his arms around another man, in friendship. "I don't know when men started to hug each other, but hug they do, and look at that," he said.


http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/128989/conservative_george_will_hates_man_hugs/

If the scariest thing in the world to the Right Wing is two men hugging, I shudder to think what the Right Wing Coup has planned for the America and the World.



Fear mongering? You bet. We should all be very, very afraid on the fascists. Because if you hate Firemen and Women and Black folks and Jewish people and Matthew Shephard and the US Constitutions and Teachers and Fairness and Children and Our Troops and the Disabled and Friendship…

You hate America.

5. The right-wingers hate everybody.
It sucks that I have two people I know who are permanently disabled and cannot get the medical treatment they need because we keep electing these fundie fucking pieces of shit who deny funding for stem-cell research but we elect people like Scott Brown and dipshits like Glenn Beck get a national stage to voice their opinion to deny people affordable health care. It sucks. We need to get out the vote.

14. Next time I see George Will...
I'm gonna walk up to him and give him a big ol' bear hug...
Any progressive/ Democrat/ Liberal who does not vote this cycle is empowering these goons. Fascism wins by driving away the population, make certain you frickin' vote.
