Within a few hours of the shooting of Congresswoman
Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona, there were attempts by the Left to pin the blame on the Tea Party movement
or other conservative entities. The suspect in the case turned out to be a lunatic who was a big fan
of both the "Communist Manifesto" and "Mein Kampf." Not exactly a right-winger.
Years ago, I began to sound the alarm about the upcoming
Obama thugocracy,
and we got a
taste of it
at the tea party events and town hall meetings in 2009.
A few representatives from the Black Panthers were involved in a voter intimidation incident at a
Philadelphia polling place on election day in 2008, and there
is no question that the Obama administration
approved of it, at least after the fact.
Examples of violence and strife associated with organized labor can be found
here.
And then you have the eco-terrorists, who attack
chinchilla farms, throw dye on fur coats, burn down legitimate businesses and deliberately disrupt
military training and testing, with no condemnation from the Left. A parallel path is being
followed by animal rights activists, who
value animals (and in some cases, plants) more than human lives.
The most widespread violence in America today is hardly talked about at all:
It goes by the name of abortion.
When someone pokes a hole in the back of a baby's head and vacuums out its little brain, that
is a barbaric act of homicide, but Barack H. Obama has repeatedly shown that he has
no objections to it.
That's because abortion is a fundamental
component of the Democratic Party platform.
Violence and hate speech from the Left:
The
bile being spat at the people of North Carolina. Apparently if you oppose gay marriage you are a dumb, ill-informed, brainwashed,
knuckle-dragging hick and bigot. At least that's the message coming out of liberal circles in America this week, as supporters of gay marriage
look with disgust upon the people of North Carolina for voting in favour of Amendment 1.
Hate Group Associations Disqualify Obama.
In 2007, about a year before Obama posted Michael Pfleger's endorsement on his website, Pfleger said of an identifiable
licensed gun store owner, "We're going to find you and snuff you out."
Fox News' Decision Not To Fire Jehmu
Greene Angers The Right. As you may recall, on last Thursday's [5/3/2012] edition of America Live, Fox News contributor Jehmu
Greene called the Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson a "bow-tying white boy" in response to Carlson's criticism of Elizabeth Warren's
qualifications. Many outraged conservatives have called upon Fox to fire Greene.
EPA
official: 'Crucify' oil companies. Al Armendariz, a regional administrator for the Environmental Protection Agency,
explained in 2010 that he understands the EPA policy to be to "crucify" a few oil and gas companies to get the rest of the industry
to comply with the laws.
Republican
floats measure calling on official to resign over crucify remarks. The resolution marks the latest push by
Republicans in Congress to put pressure on EPA Administrator Armendariz to step down. Rep. Jeff Landry (R-La.) introduced
a House resolution Friday calling on an Environmental Protection Agency official to resign over 2010 comments comparing enforcement
of clean-air laws to crucifixion. The resolution marks the latest push by Republicans in Congress to put pressure on EPA
Region 6 Administrator Al Armendariz to step down amid the firestorm over his comments.
The Editor says...
On Saturday, April 28, Democrat consultant Julian Epstein, speaking on the Fox News Channel, tried to play down the importance of Mr. Armendariz's
comments by referring to him as "a low-level EPA official." That is a deceptive mischaracterization, if not an outright lie.
Mr. Armendariz is was the Regional Administrator for EPA Region Six, which covers five oil-rich
states.* See for yourself at 2:50
into this video
clip. The Regional Administrator for EPA Region Six, whoever it is now, is a high-level EPA official.
EPA chief: 'Crucify' comments
from official are 'disappointing'. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa Jackson on Friday [4/27/2012]
said an agency official's 2010 comments comparing enforcement of clean-air laws to crucifixion are "disappointing." But
Jackson declined to say whether the official would be fired or face any disciplinary action, saying the agency "will continue
to review" the situation.
"Crucify Them": The Obama
Way. One of President Obama's radical eco-bureaucrats has apologized for confirming an indelible truth:
This White House treats politically incorrect private industries as public enemies who deserve regulatory death sentences.
Environmental Protection Agency administrator Al Armendariz, an avowed greenie on leave from Southern Methodist University,
gave a little-noticed speech in 2010 outlining his sadistic philosophy.
Obama
Administration's Repeated Abuses Are Extension of Extreme Liberalism. Every day, we get a new kick in the
gut from the Obama administration. Most recently, Environmental Protection Agency Region 6 Administrator
Al Armendariz was caught on video articulating his view of the agency's role in enforcing its regulations. [...] This
man should be fired — yesterday. White House press secretary Jay Carney risibly says Armendariz wasn't
articulating the attitude of the administration. Sadly, that's precisely what he was articulating.
Cher
rips Mitt Romney and his 'right wing racist homophobic women hating tea bagger masters'. The "Turn Back Time" singer — who backed
President Obama in 2008 — did not seem bothered by a Twitter user who suggested Cher probably lost half of her fans due to her inflammatory remarks.
Dem
Rep Smears 'Threatening' Tea Party As 'Racist,' 'Crazy,' 'Ugly. Congresswoman Yvette Clarke (NY - 11)
attacks the Republicans and the Tea Party at candidate forum hosted by "Prospect Heights Democrats for Reform."
Twitter death threats hurled at
Zimmerman, family, lawyer, and judge. It did not take long for death threats to arise on Twitter against George Zimmerman, his family, lawyer,
and Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester, who allowed Zimmerman to be released on $150,000 bond.
Twitter Buzzes With Talk of Zimmerman Riots.
Since Friday [4/20/2012], there has been an explosion of tweets surrounding the possibility of rioting if Zimmerman is acquitted — or even
because he was released on bail.
'Someone Kill the Judge'. George Zimmerman, the accused
murderer of Florida teen Trayvon Martin, has been released from jail on bail. Meeting Zimmerman's release are calls (on Twitter) for him to be
killed.
Global warming crusaders
lose steam, tempers. Writing for Forbes.com, [Steve] Zwick has called on so-called "climate deniers" to be treated like virtual
war criminals: "We know who the active denialists are — not the people who buy the lies, mind you, but the people who create
the lies," he writes. "Let's start keeping track of them now, and when the famines come, let's make them pay. Let's let their houses
burn until the innocent are rescued. Let's swap their safe land for submerged islands. Let's force them to bear the cost of rising
food prices. They broke the climate. Why should the rest of us have to pay for it?" Those who disagree with him are not merely
mistaken, they are malevolent, unworthy even of persuasion through honest debate. Instead, "denialists" deserve only to have their homes
razed. This is becoming a more and more common feature of environmentalist rhetoric.
The Editor says...
Can you imagine a person who believes that he (or anyone else) could break the climate?
Soros and Obama vs. Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
Rush Limbaugh was right in recently calling out the MSM's bias against Sheriff Joe in that not a single left-wing news source has reported that the sheriff has
received repeated online death threats by an avid Obama supporter. But a year ago, when then-Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was shot by a madman, the MSM were
quick to incriminate any right-wing sources, including polemical innuendoes on former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's and Limbaugh's websites, for contributing to
the killing spree on that dark, tragic Arizona day.
Climate
deniers should be tracked and made to pay 'when the famine comes', says inflammatory climate columnist. A
liberal environmental analyst sparked a firestorm after he used an outlandish example that suggested those who deny the
existence of man-made global warming should have their houses burnt down. Steve Zwick used the example of the fire
department in a small Tennessee town allowed several houses to burn to the ground because their owners had not paid the
mandatory $75 fee for the service.
Climate Alarmist
Calls For Burning Down Skeptics' Homes. Writing for Forbes Magazine, climate change alarmist Steve Zwick
calls for skeptics of man-made global warming to be tracked, hunted down and have their homes burned to the ground, yet
another shocking illustration of how eco-fascism is rife within the environmentalist lobby.
Mike Tyson on George
Zimmerman: 'It's a disgrace he hasn't been shot yet'. Mike Tyson thinks that George Zimmerman deserves violent retribution for
the shooting of Trayvon Martin.
"Moderate
Caucus" chair urges Cheney's execution. Rep. Chuck Kruger (D-Thomaston), the Democrat chair of the Maine
legislature's Moderate Caucus, used his Twitter account to express his view that former Vice President Dick Cheney
should be executed. This comment has led some to question the validity of Kruger's moderate credentials.
Maine
Democrat: Cheney should die like Saddam. Democratic Rep. Chuck Kruger, a state legislator in Maine's "moderate
caucus," called for former Vice President Dick Cheney to die like Saddam Hussein, and now regrets his "lousy attempt at humor."
The Editor says...
Once again, this is the most common Democrat defense after a Democrat says something offensive: "Can't you take a joke?"
New Black Panthers
Call to Create "Red Sea" of "Bloodshed". The New Black Panther Party wants a race war
and they want it to start tomorrow. In an audio recording of a planning meeting for a Trayvon
Martin rally, New Black Panther Party members have resorted to violent action for what they are
calling "revolution."
"Progressives" and the Art of Civility.
When concerned Americans objected to Obama's health care scheme and turned out at town hall meetings in strong opposition, they were called racists and
fringe radicals. The Department of Homeland Security then released a report calling those Americans who opposed Obama's policies "potential domestic
terrorist[s]." As more and more Americans took up the protests against an ever growing federal government, the "Progressives" took to the CNN/MSNBC/New York
Times media cabal to accuse the growing Tea Party of violence and then called for "civility" in political debate. That of course meant NO DEBATE.
It's a high-tech lynching.
Twitter Should Probably Delete This
'Kill Zimmerman' Account. A Twitter account with the handle "@KillZimmerman" has been active on the social media site
for five days now, gaining attention and sparking tension as its owner has fired off more than 450 tweets since its inception.
Twitchy, conservative pundit Michelle Malkin's social media website, is where this was first noticed. It remains active in its
fifth day on Twitter, and cries for its removal have started to gain steam. The account's profile image is of Zimmerman's head
in a target.
The Left No Longer Finds
Dissent Patriotic. The left is trying to shut down the opposition. When they were out of power, dissent
was patriotic. Now that they are in power, they want to use both the state and intimidation in the public square to
shut down opposing views. It goes beyond boycotts to financially intimidate those who disagree with them. Now,
the left is showing up at the private homes of American citizens they disagree with to intimidate them, threaten them, harass
them, and make them pay for daring to have a different view.
Civility Alert: Liberal
Comics Mock Cheney Following Heart Transplant Surgery. Liberal comedians don't consider the notion of "too soon" when
it comes to mocking conservatives in distress. So when former Vice President Dick Cheney underwent heart transplant surgery
liberal comics rushed to Twitter to fire off vile jokes.
Repubs:
Dick Cheney heartlessly mocked. The national chorus of Cheney-bashing over the ex-vice president's heart transplant —
with local lefties gleefully weighing in — disgusted Republicans and political observers who say the uncivil liberal
Twitterfest is ... heartless.
New civility:
Twitter explodes with Cheney hate following heart transplant. While Dick Cheney was recovering from his heart transplant
in the intensive care unit of Inova Fairfax Hospital in Falls Church, Va. Saturday [3/24/2012], Twitter exploded with hate and
ill wishes for the former vice president.
Do The Democrats And The MSM Think All
Women Are Stupid? According to Rochelle Riley at the Detroit News, Rush Limbaugh is the 21st Century foolish bigot.
In her article by that headline she basically calls Limbaugh a terrorist and says, "The danger is clear: As Limbaugh and others
continue to push hate, we are turning the rift between Americans into a fault line. And all Americans will be hurt by it."
I read her entire article checking to see if she named any other remarks by misogynists like Bill Maher, Ed Schultz, or Imus.
Alas no. Ms. Riley is just part of the media blitz to push the economic crisis aside and replace it with the issue of
birth control.
Desperate
Democrats Distract With Smears. The Democrats' attack on Rush Limbaugh hasn't turned out the way they
had hoped. The blowback, in the form of conservatives pointing out the outrageous conduct of liberals like Bill
Maher and Keith Olbermann, has dwarfed the original reaction against Rush. Worse, the blowback continues.
So Democrats are now in the position of trying to shut down the conversation about civility and misogyny that they
opportunistically started.
Exclusive:
Chris Rock Attacks Conservative Author Over Tea Party Question. The confrontation, which took place
around 2:00 a.m. on January 23, 2012, at Spike Lee's Sundance Film Festival after party at Tao night club,
ended with Chris Rock challenging the conservative author to a fight, says [Jason] Mattera: "Chris Rock shouted,
'You want to throw down? Let's throw down right now!' Of course, he was standing safely behind two
bodyguards when he said it."
White House Hypocrisy.
There's something even more offensive than pundits and comedians using their platforms to launch nasty or sexist attacks on
people they disagree with politically. And that's the selective outrage and brazen hypocrisy of this White House, which
calculatedly stirred up anger about Rush Limbaugh's Sandra Fluke comments for political gain, but seemingly has no problem
when liberal comedians and talk show hosts take sexist jabs at conservative women.
Dem
Rep: Maher can stay on the air, but Rush can't. Rep. Shelley Berkely, D-Nev., has led a push to get
Rush Limbaugh pulled off the air, but she doesnn't [sic] believe that Bill Maher needs to face the same pressure
because Maher is less important to Democrats.
Explosive Audio of
NBC's Al Sharpton. If offensive slurs are a problem for the left, why does Al Sharpton have a
primetime slot on MSNBC?
Bill
Maher's Toilet Mouth Exempt From Democrats' Standards of Decency. Could it be because Bill Maher
is a huge supporter of Democrats and just gave $1 million to Obama's Super PAC Priorities USA? Maher
repeatedly utters vile, disgusting things which go well beyond the point of decency and all we hear is crickets
from Democrats and the liberal news media.
The militant left attacks Limbaugh.
Rush Limbaugh got in trouble last week when he said a Georgetown activist dressed like a "slutty flight attendant"
and said that during a ballgame, her 14-year-old daughter "was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez." Oh wait.
That was what David Letterman said of Sarah Palin in June 2009.
"Outrage" Over Limbaugh — What
About Left-Wing Misogyny? The "firestorm" over Limbaugh's "sexism" would be convincing —
were it not for its selective nature. Where's the outrage when the misogyny comes from the left? Ed
Schultz, for example, the blowtorch left-wing MSNBC host, called conservative radio show host Laura Ingraham a
[bunch of names that won't be repeated
on akdart.com].
Left-wing
Comedians Feel Limbaugh Backlash. This is a war and it's a dumb war, but it's here to stay thanks
to the Leftists and their corrupt media allies who started it and conservatives who have finally learned to
fight fire with fire. ... Thankfully, the Left is currently losing this war.
The War on Conservative
Women. I'm sorry the civility police now have an opening to demonize the entire right based on one radio
comment — because it's the progressive left in this country that has viciously and systematically slimed female
conservatives for their beliefs. We have the well-worn battle scars to prove it. And no, we don't need coddling
phone calls from the pandering president of the United States to convince us to stand up and fight.
The Party of Hate. Millions
of Americans voted for Barack Obama in the hope that he would be a trailblazer who would conduct the presidency in a new
way. Well, he has: Obama has been the most divisive president in our modern history, unabashedly stirring up
hate against not only his political enemies, but against private citizens who exercise their right to participate in our
democracy. The most recent hatefest has been directed against Rush Limbaugh, and Obama has personally stirred the
pot. Of course, Obama has had nothing to say about the far worse invective that his own supporters have directed
against Republican women.
RFK Jr.: Inhofe is 'call girl' for Big Oil.
Leave it to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to one-up Rush Limbaugh in the name-calling department.
Dems
Incite Death Threats Against Limbaugh. Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh is being targeted by
multiple death threats after President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party ignored his apology for controversial
remarks and continued to single him out for rebuke. The assault has become so nakedly partisan and
opportunistic that even HBO host Bill Maher — who recently donated $1 million to Obama's Super
PAC — has called it a witch hunt with intimidation as its goal.
Laura
Ingraham Blasts The View: When I Was Called A Slut, Barbara Walters Laughed. Laura Ingraham appeared on
Tuesday's [3/6/2012] Fox & Friends, and spoke out about the controversy swirling around Rush Limbaugh's remarks
to Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke. Co-host Gretchen Carlson asked the conservative radio host whether
there was a double-standard when liberals use slurs against conservatives.
Obama's Waiver for Bill Maher.
[Scroll down] Let us also remember that [David] Axelrod wasn't satisfied with Rush's apology because what he said about
Fluke "was not only vile and degrading to her, but to women across the country." So does Axelrod also believe that
Maher said things about Sarah Palin that "were not only vile and degrading to her, but to women across the country?"
In
Honor Of Andrew Breitbart, 20 Examples Of Liberal Hatred On Display. Breitbart loved nothing better than
exposing the festering anger and hatred at the heart of modern liberalism. That's why he retweeted the sick and
demented things that liberals said about him on Twitter and it's why, in honor of Andrew Breitbart, here are 20 examples
of liberal hatred on display.
Death threats leveled against Rush Limbaugh.
Liberals aren't really mad at Fox for dishonesty — they can never produce any examples of it during their
anti-Fox rants, and they turn purple when reminded of blatant liberal journalistic frauds like RatherGate. What
drives the Left nuts is that Fox can pick up and amplify stories the Left would rather ignore, reducing the time lag
from blogosphere chatter to water-cooler conversation.
Did
someone mention Rathergate?
Democrats
sign Bill Maher for fundraiser as Obama urges civility. Alabama's Democratic Party has recruited
controversial comedian Bill Maher to headline a fundraiser March 17, amid calls by President Barack Obama and
other Democrats for greater civility in public debate. Maher has donated $1 million to aid a superPAC that
is aiding Obama's re-election campaign. He is popular among Democrats, but is reviled by many GOP advocates
for his frequent sexually-themed insults of Republican women.
Liberal radio host says God is smashing Bible-thumping
tornado victims into little grease spots. I'm sure every liberal reading this is already on the phone
to [Mike] Malloy's advertisers, howling for a boycott. He's not responding to something these people said.
He's mocking their deaths.
Numerous examples of left-wing hate speech:
Liberals
celebrate death of Andrew Breitbart. As news broke this morning of the tragic death of Conservative journalist Andrew Breitbart,
liberals celebrated the news on Twitter.
Rolling Stone on
Breitbart: He's Dead. Good! And it gets much worse from there... I almost hate to draw attention to
this incredibly sad example of the intolerant left over at Rolling Stone, but quite frankly, Andrew Breitbart probably
would have eaten this up, and tweeted it back out.
Thoughts on the Hateful Left. The
vermin of the left have been out in force with nastiness and viciousness about Andrew Breitbart since Breitbart's death.
We on the right have quite rightly taken offense. The left claims we do the same thing when a lefty dies. They can't
prove it.
Slate Columnist Cheers Breitbart's
Death. Economics and philosophy expert Matthew Yglesias reacted with glee Thursday morning [3/1/2012]
at the news that conservative journalist Andrew Breitbart had died.
Why Liberals Cheer When Conservatives
Die. Outside of the bin Ladens of this world, I refrain from saying unkind words about the dearly
departed. If someone dies and I have nothing nice to say about them, I don't say anything at all. If
only [Matt] Taibbi, [Matt] Yglesias and other liberal pundits practiced this principle.
Why
Can't the Obama Administration Make Its Case Without Disseminating Hate? Have we ever had an
administration like Barack Obama's? An administration that tries to benefit from pitting Americans
against one another? An administration that uses its billion-dollar slush fund, not to mention the
resources of the Executive Branch, to demonize private citizens who disagree with its policies? An
administration that uses hate as an instrument of domestic politics? I don't believe that there is any
precedent in American history for the mean-spiritedness that now emanates from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Richard
Lugar Calls TEA Party Voters Morons. Richard Lugar's campaign just sent out a truly astounding email.
The email reprinted in whole an article from Mike O'Brien titled Dan Parker's favorite Republican. Although
the article wasn't written by Lugar, it was enthusiastically pimped in its entirety by Lugar's campaign, thus
indicating Lugar's basic agreement with it. The article reeks with contempt for conservatives in general
and TEA Party voters in particular — including this astounding paragraph...
Death Threats? Ho Hum!
Threats of the sort described by Charles Koch go with the territory if you are a conservative. We have gotten
threats, harassing phone calls, etc., over the years -- although none lately, as far as I know -- and
anyone active in politics on the conservative side has had the same experience. With the bizarre campaign
of hate that the Left has orchestrated against the Koch brothers over the last year or two, one can hardly
imagine the vitriol they must get from liberals. Of course, that is of little concern to liberal
reporters. The civility campaign of 2011 is so ... 2011.
Maxine
Waters: Boehner and Cantor 'Demons'. Maxine Waters reminded us today that, should Democrats win back the
House, she is in line to become the next chairwoman of the Financial Services Committee. If that doesn't scare
you, then just watch this video. In it, she calls Speaker John Boehner and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor
"demons" who "would rather do whatever they can to destroy this president, rather than for the good of this country."
Maxine Waters calls
Republican leaders 'demons'. Rep. Maxine Waters, no stranger to controversy, is turning heads once again,
this time for describing House Republican leaders as "demons." The California Democrat's comments, which surfaced
Wednesday [2/15/2012], were made last weekend at a state party convention in San Diego. Video of her speech shows
her rallying Democrats to win back control of the House in November.
Attack
on civility: The crowd of more than 2,000 — bloated by swarms of Occupiers and their
teachers-union promoters — shouted down any opposition via a standard Occupy trick, the so-called
"peoples' microphone," in which one speaker's words are picked up and relayed in short phrases. Naturally,
four-letter words flew. The goal was to thwart a legal and democratic process through disruption and
intimidation.
Liberal hate speech increasing. Last
week, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D.-Fla.) linked the Tea Party to the tragic Jan. 8, 2011, shooting
of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D.-Ariz.). ... Wasserman Schultz is not alone. Vice President Joe Biden has
compared the Tea Party to terrorists, and David Axelrod, President Obama's political henchman, has compared Newt
Gingrich to a monkey. The Washington Post quoted an Obama campaign e-mail to supporters in October of
last year claiming the Republican plan for job creation is to "suffocate the economy for the sake of what they
think will be a political victory." The President has referred to Republicans as "hostage takers."
DNC
chair blames Tea Party for Tucson shooting? Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., speaking in
New Hampshire this morning [1/11/2012], reminded her audience of the tragic Tucson shooting last year — and also
insinuated that the Tea Party, which she said regards political opponents as "the enemy," has enhanced
divisiveness in Congress and had something to do with the shooting, at least indirectly.
Feud
erupts over DNC chairwoman's comment on Giffords shooting. An inter-party feud erupted Wednesday
evening [1/11/2012] over whether the head of the Democratic Party blamed the Tea Party movement for the shooting
one year ago in Tucson, Ariz., that killed six and injured Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.). The left claimed
that Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (Fla.) was referring to the rancor of public
discourse — a hot topic in the days after the shooting. Republicans called it a pathetic attempt
to score political points, and demanded an apology.
Leftism Makes You
Meaner. Two examples in just the past week offer compelling evidence. Prominent left-wing
commentators used the way in which Rick Santorum and his wife handled the death of one of their children to
attack — make that mock — the former Pennsylvania senator. In a lifetime of observing
and participating in political debate, I have seen a lot of meanness. But one just assumes that some
things — not many, just some — are off limits to political pundits and activists.
Among these few things, one has to believe, is the death of a child. But I was wrong.
Big
Government's Debauchery Of Human Capital. The short life of Gabriel Santorum would seem a curious
priority for political discourse at a time when the Brokest Nation in History is hurtling toward its rendezvous
with destiny. But needs must, and victory by any means necessary. In 2008, the left gleefully mocked
Sarah Palin's live baby. It was only a matter of time before they moved on to a dead one.
Obama's Fascist
America in 10 Easy Steps. [#3] Develop a thug caste. At a town hall meeting in St. Louis
held by Democrat Congressman Russ Carnahan, members of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), representative
of government employees, beat a black man who was there selling flag pins. A woman was beaten up by an Obama
supporter in Minnesota. A man had his finger bitten off in an assault by an Obama supporter at an anti-health
care rally. And let's not forget the entire Occupy movement of the 99-centers; they have been camps full of
lawlessness, full of rapes and assaults. OWS was produced and organized by people close to the Obama administration.
Walker Recall Intimidation Caught On Video.
Volunteers working to recall Gov. Scott Walker said they have proof of the harassment they've been getting from
opponents. Reports of harassment have come in from many areas, and on Monday night, Brookfield police arrested
a man after one such incident was caught on tape.
They Mean Well. Really?
Does anyone doubt the sincerity of Democrats when they castigate their Republican opponents as Nazis? ... Until
conservatives understand the ruthless mindset of their "friends across the aisle," they will continue to operate
at a huge disadvantage in the political arena. As President Obama said, "If they bring a knife to the
fight, we bring a gun."
Democrats
Follow Obama Down the Low Road. Democrats and Republicans don't agree on much politically.
These days, we can't even agree on the basic proposition that scapegoating is destructive. Scapegoating
tears a country apart. It distracts us with false solutions when we are facing an economic emergency and
have no time to waste. And it raises the specter of violence — actual physical violence, with
businesses destroyed and people hurt and killed. Yet Democrats applaud President Obama's scapegoating rhetoric.
The Union War
on Wisconsin Governor Walker. Unleashing forces of hate, making it personal, unions roll out heavy
artillery in their all-out war against their declared enemy, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. Union devotees
will need about 540,200 signatures on petitions in 60 days to trigger a special recall election targeting the
besieged rookie governor. Meanwhile, protesters' signs hang in the Capitol rotunda, left from February protests,
depicting Gov. Walker as a mustachioed Hitler, the devil himself, object of daily exercises of almost ritual union
members' hatred, like an Emmanuel Goldstein in George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984. Only the ritual
hate sessions are not two minutes daily; rather, eight grueling months for unions' most faithful haters.
OWS Supporters Confirm: Violence is an
Essential Component. The Occupy Oakland branch of the nationwide tent city protests seems to have
produced the worst-case scenario for both the occupier movement and its critics. A man was shot and killed
there a few days ago, and police are clearing the protesters out this morning [11/14/2011] (though many occupiers
are threatening to come back after the police are gone).
Top 10 Joe Bidenisms. [#1] Republicans
want more rapes: While trying to sell President Obama's jobs bill, Biden hurled a vicious attack on Republicans
blocking the bill, saying that if the bill didn't pass, murders and rapes would increase: "It's not temporary
when that 911 call comes in and a woman's being raped, if a cop shows up in time to prevent the rape. It's not
temporary to that woman. ... I wish they [Republicans] had some notion of what it was like to be on the other side
of a gun, or a 200-pound man standing over you, telling you to submit."
Occupy Protester Arrested In $10M Arson Fire.
Police have arrested an Occupy Fort Collins protester in connection with a $10 million arson fire that damaged
dozens of condominiums and businesses in Fort Collins. Benjamin David Gilmore, 29, was arrested on Thursday night
[11/3/2011] on suspicion of arson, burglary and criminal mischief.
Occupied with violence.
Remember when Sarah Palin was accused of promoting "Tea Party violence" because she used an ad graphic depicting
crosshairs on a map of the United States? On Wednesday, the Occupy Wall Street movement declared a general strike
in Oakland, Calif. According to the Occupy Oakland website, the goal of their "anti-capitalist march" was to "shut down
Oakland" and "blockade everything." This was no drawing — the violence was real.
Protester throws
fit in McDonald's when he can't get free food. A Zuccotti Park protester threw a violent fit in a
McDonald's yesterday after employees refused to give him free food. Fisika Bezabeh, 27, ripped a credit-card
reader from a counter and threw it at workers at about 2:30 a.m. at the Mickey D's at 160 Broadway,
a bathroom spot for protesters.
More
about Occupy Wall Street demonstrations.
The Obama Rule.
As we saw with the Representative Giffords shooting, we now know the Obama Rule: Anytime the president
sermonizes about civility and the need to curb partisan rhetoric, this is a telltale sign that in a few days a
savage partisan attack will surely follow.
Obama launches cultural warfare.
Obama's reelection strategy is about more than the haves and have-nots. It appears he is seeking to stir up
full-blown cultural warfare against a large and diverse segment of society known as Republicans. ... But in
waging this battle, Obama is saying nasty and dangerous things.
Another
blessed out-of-touch moment from Nancy Pelosi. [Scroll down] Ironically, Pelosi's comments came at
almost the same time a representative of the mob, Roseanne Barr, literally called for guillotining —
yes, guillotining — wealthy American bankers. She openly called for their forcible "re-education"
and execution. I have friends and students there in New York observing this spectacle. They email
me daily. One took a picture of two homosexual men embracing while holding a sign imploring the brethren
to "KILL YOUR PARENTS." As he snapped this picture, the throng initiated a frightening march upon the
homes of those loathsome "millionaires and billionaires" that President Obama targets unceasingly with his
terribly destructive class-based rhetoric. It's only a matter of time before this angry, envy-filled
insurrection turns violent.
Obama
Supporters Cuss At Tea Partiers and Their Kids. I returned a bit ago from getting photos and video
of the Obama fundraiser protest in St. Louis. It was hosted by Tom Carnahan, owner of the Wind Capital
Group, an alternative energy group which received around $100 million in stimulus funds. That
Carnahan's brother is Democratic Representative Russ Carnahan surely helped change Wind Capital Group's
fortunes. The St. Louis Tea Party was among various conservative groups and activists who showed up to
protest at Forest Park, barricaded across the street from Tom Carnahan's stately home.
AFL-CIO
Trumka: Wisc. Governor 'Lucifer,' Will Support a Recall. AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said
that his union coalition would participate in a planned recall campaign targeting Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker
(R) — a man Trumka referred to as "Lucifer." "Would I support going after Lucifer?" Trumka
said, after being asked if he would support a recall of Walker. "Let me think about that. That's a
tough one. Of course we're gonna' be there."
Treat
Herman Cain as a 'Racist, Bigoted Person,' Says Dem Strategist. Democratic strategist Cornell
Belcher was up-in-arms Thursday over Herman Cain's remarks that African-Americans have been "brainwashed" to
vote Democratic. Belcher, an African-American, called the remarks "racist" and "bigoted" and added that
Cain "should be treated like a racist and bigoted person."
Top 10 Examples of Liberal Incivility.
With President Obama's approval ratings in free fall and 2012 election prospects looking bleak for Democrats,
liberals are resorting to vicious attacks, name-calling and hyperbole to paint Republicans in a bad light.
Lib
Activist Physically Assaults GOP Lawmaker in Wisconsin, Media Silent. A known liberal
activist that has for months been stalking several Republican lawmakers in Wisconsin, verbally abusing
them, has finally crossed the line into a physical attack. So ... where is the Old Media to
chronicle this assault?
Obama Hypocrisy. Barack
Obama is nothing less than a hypocrite on his admonitions over public discourse and the latest example
of this truth lies in his refusal to condemn the violence-tinged language of Teamsters president Jimmy
Hoffa not to mention his similar silence on the obscene rhetoric of many of the leading members of the
Congressional Black Caucus.
Obama and
Our 9/11 Trauma. [Scroll down] In 2006, New York State Comptroller Alan
Hevesi spoke at the graduation ceremony of Queens College, a public university. Here's
how he introduced New York's Senator Charles Schumer to the fresh-faced graduates: "The
man who, how do I phrase this diplomatically, who will put a bullet between the president's eyes
if he could get away with it."
Failure
to rebuke Hoffa another failure of leadership. It's bad enough that Teamster union boss Jimmy
Hoffa called on President Obama to use union members as an "army" to "take these sons of bitches out" —
speaking of Tea Party opponents of Obama's policies. Worse is Obama's immediate followup in saying
he is "proud" of Hoffa and other union leaders at the Labor Day rally in Detroit where they both appeared.
The president let Hoffa's violent language hang in the air, unchallenged.
Civility Goes Out
The Window. Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa Jr. introduced President Obama to union hordes
by declaring war on the Tea Party and offering him an army against Republicans. Why no
condemnation from "The Great Uniter"?
Credibility
on the Decline. A growing problem for Barack Obama is Barack Obama. Because
he chose to be a sermonizing president, he is bound to practice what he so commonly preaches —
otherwise he risks the fate of an Elmer Gantry, or sanctimonious Jimmy Carter. But on a
number of topics, he has simply lost all credibility. How can Obama ever again lecture
Americans on "civil discourse" and the need for common standards of polite public speech after
following Hoffa's mean-spirited rant and offering him praise?
Barnicle,
Brown Defend Hoffa: Suddenly Opposed To 'Sanitizing' Speech. Is there no double-standard
depths to which the liberal media won't sink when it comes to provocative political speech?
No — judging by the pitiful performance of two MSMers on today's Morning Joe in defending
James "Take 'Em Out" Hoffa. Newsweek editor Tina Brown brayed that we must not "sanitize" political
speech or take the "juice" out of it — all the while condemning Michele Bachmann and Glenn
Beck for some of their remarks.
How
Obama Protects the Teamsters. The same civility police on the left who decry any references
to crosshairs as incitements to violence are now mute about Hoffa's brass-knuckle rhetoric. The
Chicagoans in the White House refuse to comment. Those calling on Obama to condemn Hoffa's
uncivil tone are deluding themselves. The 1.4 million-member Teamsters lifted Obama to
power with a coveted endorsement and bottomless campaign coffers funded with coerced member dues.
Over the past two decades, the union has donated nearly $25 million to Democrats (compared to
$1.8 million for Republicans).
President Should
Rebuke Hoffa. The president has tremendous influence with his allies; if he genuinely
cared about the quality of public discourse in America, why wouldn't he rebuke Hoffa?
Tea
party calls on Obama to rebuke union chief. A tea party group called on President Barack Obama to
rebuke Teamsters President Jim Hoffa for urging him to use supporters at a Labor Day rally as an army to march
and "take out" tea partyers, describing the remarks as "a call for violence."
Hoffa's
uncivil rhetoric on tea party, congressional conservatives. While warming up a Detroit crowd for
President Barack Obama's Labor Day speech, Teamsters union president Jimmy Hoffa, Jr. said unions need to fight
a "war" against tea partiers and congressional Republicans. "President Obama, this is your army," Hoffa
said. "We are ready to march. Let's take these sons of b·····s out
and take America back to where America we belong."
Tea party group to Hoffa:
Resign! After Teamsters union president Jimmy Hoffa, Jr. called for a "war" against Republicans
and tea partiers on Monday [9/5/2011], one tea party group is calling for the union leader to resign.
"Calls to violence can never be acceptable in this civil society," the Rockford, Illinois tea party group
said in a statement.
White
House Declines To Comment On Union Leader's Anti-Tea Party Rhetoric. Despite President Obama's
repeated claims to change the tone in Washington, the White House had no comment this afternoon after Teamsters
Union leader James Hoffa, speaking at an event before President Obama, said of Tea Party activists that, come
November, Democrats should "take these sons of b·····s out." Warming
up the crowd before President Obama's Labor Day speech in Detroit this afternoon, Hoffa warned the largely
union crowd that the Tea Party was waging a "war on workers."
Will
Barack Obama condemn Joe Biden and Jimmy Hoffa? Hoffa, the Teamsters president, was warming up a
Detroit crowd when he said: "President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march. Let's
take these son of a b·····s out and give America back to an America where
we belong." Biden, whose mouth has long been a liability for Obama, was at an AFL-CIO rally when he told
union members: "You are the only folks keeping the barbarians from the gates... the other side has
declared war on labour's house."
Two Americas.
On the one hand, Teamsters mob boss Jimmy Hoffa Jr. can stand on stage, at a podium bearing the presidential
seal and with the chief of state sitting a few feet away, and make his Hoffa-you-can't-refuse pledge to "take
these sons-of-b·····s out," and President Obama responds by saying how
"proud" he is of Hoffa.
Barack
Obama Forgets What He Said in Tucson. Can't remember what Barack Obama said when he spoke in Tuscon,
Ariz., at the Jan. 12 campaign rally disguised as a memorial service to honor the people killed in Tucson
four days earlier? You're not alone. After hearing AFL-CIO President Jimmy Hoffa call for war on
the Tea Party Monday, the president seemed as if he had forgotten his words, too.
Hoffa
Does Not Speak for Working Americans. James P. Hoffa's résumé suggests that he
knows little or nothing about genuine blue-collar labor, either as a practitioner or a facilitator
such as an engineer or technician. His depiction of Tea Party members as "son of
a b·····s [sic]" shows that he knows nothing about
public relations either.
Tea Party group: Rep. Andre Carson should resign. The nation's
largest Tea Party organization is calling for a Democratic congressman to resign after he said Tea Party lawmakers
would like nothing more than seeing black people "hanging on a tree." Mark Meckler and Jenny Beth Martin of
the Tea Party Patriots described Rep. Andre Carson's remarks as "disgusting" and "hateful" in a statement to the
[New York] Daily News. "Rep. Carson should immediately resign from Congress," it read. The Indiana
lawmaker and leading member of the Congressional Black Caucus made the shocking remarks at an Aug. 22 jobs
event in Miami sponsored by the caucus.
Milwaukee
Thug ID'ed as Former Teachers Union and SEIU Organizer! When the protests turned ugly
outside of the Milwaukee Catholic school where Gov. Scott Walker was appearing last Friday, I instinctively
knew that the worst offenders would be teacher union leaders. Why? Because a nasty,
belligerent attitude has become a requirement for a leadership post in most teachers unions.
Sure, union leaders publicly talk about the need for civility and open-mindedness, but in their
unscripted moments they spew vitriol, intimidation and hatred.
Rep.
Carson stands by tea party racism blast. A spokesman for Democratic Rep. Andre Carson
said the Indiana representative and member of the Congressional Black Caucus is not backing down from
comments he made previously, when he said members of the tea party movement on Capitol Hill would like
to see African Americans "hanging on a tree." Jason Tomsci, Carson's aide, confirmed the comments
and reaffirmed the sentiment.
Big
Three Nets Ignore Rep. Carson's Lynching Smear of Tea Party. Representative Andre
Carson's inflammatory attack on the Tea Party has yet to have receive any attention from the Big
Three networks. As reported by Politico on Wednesday, Rep. Carson accused Tea Party-friendly
members of Congress of wanting to bring back Jim Crow and went so far to accuse his colleagues of
wanting to bring back lynching: "Some of them... would love to see you and me... hanging on
a tree."
Andre Carson: Tea party wants
blacks 'hanging on a tree'. A top lawmaker in the Congressional Black Caucus says
tea partiers on Capitol Hill would like to see African-Americans hanging from trees and accuses
the movement of wishing for a return to the Jim Crow era.
The Editor apologizes for the profanity in this headline.
Kerosene
Maxine to Tea Party: "Go to Hell!". [Representative Maxine] Waters once said of the then-sitting
president: "I would like to ... say ... very clearly that I believe George (H.W.) Bush is a
racist." She routinely refers to the Republican Party as "the enemy." She also referred to
Republican former Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan as a "plantation owner." She called the 1992 Los
Angeles riots a "rebellion," and bellowed, "No justice, no peace!" She defended looters: "There
were mothers who took this as an opportunity to take some milk, to take some bread, to take some shoes.
Maybe they shouldn't have done it, but the atmosphere was such that they did it. They are not crooks."
Tea
Party Group Slams Rep. Waters Over Outburst. A national Tea Party group urged Democrats to
adhere to their own calls for civility after Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters told a restless crowd over the
weekend that the "Tea Party can go straight to hell." Mark Meckler and Jenny Beth Martin, who lead the
Tea Party Patriots, suggested President Obama should step in to put a check on the overheated rhetoric.
Union
Rep Declares "Open Season" on "Managers and Scabs". As the CWA picketing of Verizon continues it
seems some of the union leadership is becoming more and more unhinged. Apparently one member of the union
leadership went so far as to instruct his members, by way of publicly accessible telephone hotline, that it is
now "open season" on "managers and scabs". The thug went on to say that union members should "follow them"
and "torture them, torture them with chants and noise".
Black Privilege. [Scroll down] In
Obama's America, there's little human decency to be found. The rules have changed, and they consist of the
new three Rs: rage, revenge, and reparations. And this malignant game of Blaming
Whitey will go on and on until we call it what it is (hate), walk away from the table, and refuse to play.
Tea
Party terror? If liberals believe anything, it is that the right is either solely, or
mostly, responsible for the degradation of political discourse in America. And they are surely
correct to condemn such ugly rhetorical excesses as the Obama-is-Hitler placards that flowered across
the land in the summer of 2009. But liberals are in deep, deep denial about their own incivility
issues.
Tea Party
Terrorists. According to the website Politico, Vice President Joe Biden agreed "with a line
of argument made by Rep. Mike Doyle (D-Pa.) at a two-hour, closed-door Democratic Caucus meeting" that
congressional tea party members "acted like terrorists" in the way they stood against attempts to raise
taxes and force spending reductions as part of the debt-ceiling deal. Biden denied making the
comparison. Given the heated rhetoric behind and in front of the scenes, the use of such a phrase,
particularly in light of Biden's known salty language, has credibility.
To
[Heck] with You People. Tom Friedman — who knows a bit about Hezbollah — calls
the tea partiers the "Hezbollah faction" of the GOP bent on taking the country on a "suicide mission."
All over the place, conservative Republicans are "hostage takers" and "terrorists," "terrorists" and
"traitors." They want to "end life as we know it on this planet," says Nancy Pelosi. They
are betraying the Founders, too. Chris Matthews all but signs up for the "Make [a fool] of
Yourself" contest at the State Fair. Joe Nocera writes today that "the Tea Party Republicans can
put aside their suicide vests." Lord knows what Krugman and Olbermann have said. Then last
night, on the very day Gabby Giffords heroically returns to cast her first vote since that tragic
attack seven months ago, the vice president of the United States calls the Republican party a bunch
of terrorists.

'Gun Against
the Head' Civil Discourse. In 2008, long before a shooting in Tucson where six people died and
19 were injured, candidate Barack Obama did not shy away from violent imagery when explaining how he would
counter Republican attacks during the 2008 presidential campaign. Chicago-style Obama warned: "If
they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun."
Conservatives
and the "N" Word. It is simply unacceptable in America for liberals to continue to refer to
conservatives as Nazis. Last week at a union protest in Trenton the Vice President of Communications
Workers of America, Chris Shelton, came close to using this barbaric language, but exercised slightly more
tact by only referring to New Jersey's Governor as "Adolf Christie." But the insinuation was still
evident. This type of vituperative language from the left is not uncommon.
Union
Boss Calls Christie "Hitler". Once again the leaders of America's union movement are
providing more evidence of the devotion of liberals to civil political discourse. At a rally in
Trenton, New Jersey yesterday [6/16/2011], Chris Shelton, the vice president of the Communications Workers
of America, told a crowd assembled to protest pension reform that "It took World War II to get rid
of the last Adolf Hitler — it's gonna take World War III to get rid of Adolf Christie!"
Why It's Futile to Argue With a Liberal.
A recent column by Paul Krugman, the uber-liberal New York Times pundit (is there any other kind at
the Gray Lady?), was aptly headlined "Let's Not Be Civil." ... But that presumes that up till now his fellow
liberal Democrats have been civil -- a premise for which there's scant evidence. New York Rep. Louise M.
Slaughter's outrageous claim April 7, responding to efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, that the
freshmen Republican congressmen elected in November came to Washington "to kill women" was only the most
extreme and outrageous of the many manifestations of that incivility.
Comedian
hints at assassinating Palin if she is elected. "You know what man?" [Christopher] Titus said.
"I am going to literally — if she gets elected president, I am going to hang out on the grassy knoll
all the time, just loaded and ready — because you know what? It's for my country. It's for
my country. If I got to sacrifice myself, it's for my country."
The Editor says...
This man calls himself a comedian. Is this comedy? I'd say he's a propagandist, or a left-wing
activist, but he's no comedian.
Juan Williams unhinged.
Do you remember when the American left recently launched its new era of political civility? Neither does
Juan Williams.
California
Democrat Party chairman thinks Jerry Brown should shoot Republicans. Remember just a few
months ago when using the word target was so offensive that it caused Democrats to swoon? Well,
times have changed in California.
The Left's Deranged
Hatred of Allen West. On the list of things that make progressives gnash their teeth and foam
at their mouths, little tops an African-American of the conservative persuasion. Even more horrifying
to the Left is one who makes clear: "you're not going to intimidate me," as Congressman Allen West
(R-FL) said at a Tuesday night [4/26/2011] town hall meeting where leftists, including former Air America
host Nicole Sandler (who was later arrested), tried to disrupt the event.
Several Tossed From Congressman's Town Hall Meeting.
Police escorted a number of people out of a town hall meeting Wednesday night [4/27/2011] — the second
night in a row that U.S. Rep. Allen West, R-Fla., held what became a heated event.
La Raza Student Mob Shuts Down Tucson School Board
Meeting. A group of local La Raza students shut down the Tucson school board meeting. They
screamed, chanted and chained themselves to the tables. The young La-Raza activists demanded that an
outlawed racist anti-American curriculum be taught at local schools.
'Decapitate'
Email Prompted Complaint Against Outgoing Homeland Security Official. Homeland Security
Secretary Janet Napolitano's outgoing communications chief is known for his combative style. But in a
confrontation that was undisclosed until now, he once threatened to "f---ing decapitate" the staff at the
immigration office press shop. The email outburst from Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Sean Smith
so startled one of the employees on the receiving end that she made an internal complaint against him.
Hate Speech Makes a Comeback.
Well, it sure didn't take long for the Tucson Truce to collapse. After Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was
shot on Jan. 8 by a berserker who killed six others, including a federal judge and a 9-year-old
girl, and wounded 13, the media were aflame with charges the right had created the climate of hate in which
such an atrocity was inevitable.
No Time for Civility.
Most of the current leaders and many of the rank and file within the American conservative movement have as
their defining characteristic a bottomless pit of pessimism and timidity, combined with an overarching fixation
with civility. Their political opponents, the liberals, have as their defining characteristic an air of
confidence that they are always right as well as the smartest people in any room, combined with the knowledge
that they can intimidate and exploit the aforementioned natural proclivity of the conservatives. There
is an obvious cause and effect at play.
The Tolerant Left.
One thing you have to say about the Left: They never miss an opportunity to let the mask of hatred
slip. It's practically Pavlovian; they are so invested in the myth of their own righteousness that
their "tolerance" fetish goes right out the window whenever they suffer the slightest affront to their
delusional notion of how the world works.
Blow His Brains Out?
Remember all of three months back when Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was shot in the head during
an assassination attempt in Tuscon and the political world reacted with, oh, half an hour of deceny and
reflection and urged a new level of respect and less fiery rhetoric during political debate? Well,
apparently, state Rep. Margo Davidson, D-Delco, does not. ... "If the gentleman from Butler County stood
yelling, knowing that he's a gun-toter, and I felt threatened, would I be protected under court law if I blew
his brains out?" Amid audible gasps, she then giggled. House Speaker Sam Smith banged the gavel
and ordered Davidson's remarks stricken from the record.
PA
Politician Asks if She Can Kill a Colleague, 'Blow His Brains Out'. Yes, it's that new age of
Democrat political civility rearing its ugly head yet again. During an April 12 debate on gun
control Pennsylvania State Representative Margo Davidson of Philadelphia wondered aloud on the House floor
if it might be OK for her to blow the brains out of one of Pennsylvania's Republican Representatives.
Warning: This article is
replete with vulgarity and profanity — all of it written or spoken by leftist Democrats.
The news you'll never see.
With the advent of the internet the liberal/leftie hold on the media has some gaps; the unpleasant truths
they formerly suppressed, glossed over or reworked now often comes through in all its ugliness.
Media
Ignore Wisconsin Teacher Charged With Sending Death Threats to Republicans. According to the
criminal complaint, [Katherine R.] Windels allegedly sent an email threat to State Sen. Robert Cowles
(R-Green Bay) March 9. Later that evening, she allegedly sent another email to 15 Republican
legislators, including Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau). The subject line of the
second email was: "Atten: Death Threat!!!! Bomb!!!" In that email, she purportedly wrote,
"Please put your things in order because you will be killed and your families will also be killed due to
your actions in the last 8 weeks."
Rep. Louise Slaughter:
GOP Freshmen Came to Washington 'To Kill Women'. Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-N.Y.) said today [4/7/2011]
that the new Republicans elected to the House of Representatives last November came to Congress "to kill
women." She also likened Republican efforts to prohibit federal funding of abortion except in cases
of rape, incest or where the life of the mother is endangered to actions taken by Nazis.
State
Tea Party Leader in Brookfield Receives Threat. Police are increasing patrols near the Brookfield
home of a state tea party leader who has pushed for greater health and pension concessions from public employees
after he received a veiled death threat over the weekend. Wisconsin Tea Party Patriots State Coordinator
Michael Hintze told police when he answered a call on his cell phone about 2:30 p.m. Saturday [3/12/2011],
a male voice "asked if he was wearing a bullet-proof vest" and then hung up.
Another example of Democrat civility and professionalism:
D.C.
Delegate Tells Congress to Go 'Straight to Hell' Over Budget Battle. Lawmakers' tempers are
flaring on Capitol Hill over the possibility of a government shutdown, and D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes
Norton is no exception. The Democratic non-voting representative for the District of Columbia told
MyFoxDC.com that Congress should go "straight to hell" for trying to meddle in D.C. affairs.
Woman
charged with e-mail threats in Wisconsin union fight. Wisconsin prosecutors filed a
four-count criminal complaint on Thursday [3/31/2011] against a 26-year-old woman, charging her with sending
e-mail threats to Republican state senators after they passed controversial curbs on public employee
union rights.
"New Civility," RIP.
One would think that if anything is uncivil it is a death threat. Local news outlets in Wisconsin
report that a number of Republican legislators have received such threats. Democratic Party activists
have gone to Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald's house and pounded on his windows, demanding that he come
out, at 6:00 in the morning. Crazed mobs have repeatedly menaced Republicans, who had to be spirited
out of the state Capitol by armed state patrolmen. If this isn't uncivil, what is?
'Civility'
Was Always Dead. Blogress Ann Althouse, a university of Wisconsin law professor, is half
of the husband-and-wife team that has done a better job than any journalist of reporting on the skirmish
in Wisconsin over government union privileges. Yesterday [3/12/2011] she posted a link to a bizarre threat
against her and hubby Laurence Meade that was posted on Scirbd.com.
Progressives in Their Own Words.
A death threat serious enough that State Department of Justice is investigating it -- along with
"several" others made to Republican legislators, followed by a thinly-veiled threat of extortion by
public service union police official sent to the director of a financial services company. An
extortion letter co-signed by other police, firefighting and teacher union "leaders" as well. Take
a good, long look at progressivism minus the mainstream media filter, my fellow Americans.
Death Threats
by the Dozens in Wisconsin. 'We will hunt you down. We will slit your throats. We
will drink your blood. I will have your decapitated head on a pike in the Madison town square.
This is your last warning." Is this a passage from Bram Stoker's Dracula? A snippet from
al-Qaeda's latest missive? No, this e-mail reached Wisconsin state senator Dan Kapanke (R., La Crosse)
on March 9, after he voted for GOP governor Scott Walker's controversial budget and labor reforms.
Chilling threats
made against Althouse. It's like living in Venezuela. Blogger, lawyer Ann Althouse, who
has been covering the Wisconsin labor dispute, received what can only be called a declaration of war on her
from someone — or, more likely, some people — who don't like her anti-union sentiments.
20
Days of Left-Wing Thuggery in Wisconsin. [In this article], you'll find a compilation of
20 days worth of the death threats, vandalism, and intimidation practiced by pro-union thugs opposed
to Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's budget repair bill. ... Not only should the local and national media
be amplifying their coverage of this ongoing scandal because of the bar they themselves set with the Tea
Party for what rises to the level of of racism, "predominantly white" protesters and troubling behavior —
but in the wake of the tragic shootings in Tuscon you would think direct threats on elected officials would
rate a little outrage. Well, obviously not when those threats come from the Left.
American
Brownshirts. 'Every once in a while, you need to get out on the streets and get a little
bloody when necessary," Rep. Michael Capuano (D., Mass.) told a February 22 union rally in Boston.
Even if union members and their supporters missed Capuano's call to mayhem (or his subsequent tepid apology),
many of them are on the same brutal wavelength. Although Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D., Ariz.) still is
recovering from a January 8 assassination attempt, the Left's post-Tucson civility campaign has vanished
like gunsmoke in a desert breeze.
War On Taxpayers Update: Massachusetts.
George Noel is the director of the Massachusetts Department of Labor. The Boston Herald reports that
he addressed a union rally over the weekend, in the company of such illustrious organizations as Code Pink and
MoveOn.org. Peering across the fruited plain to Wisconsin, Noel declared: "Make no mistake about it.
We are at war. This war is about everyone in the middle class... If [Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and his
supporters] claim to love this country, why do they hate democracy?"
The media protects a Democrat with silence.
You would think something like this would be a pretty big story, especially since the union troops Hintz supports are
becoming increasingly aggressive in their occupation of the state capitol. After millions of BTUs worth of hot
air were unleashed about "tone" and "civility" in the wake of the Tucson shootings, an actual death threat from an
elected representative is a significant event. No "heat of the moment" defense would be accepted from a
Republican under similar circumstances, especially if a male Republican cited for sexual misconduct were
threatening a female Democrat.
Wisconsin
Dem Assemblyman Curses GOP Assemblywoman, Media Mum. A Wisconsin Democrat Assemblyman turned to a
Republican Assemblywoman in the middle of a legislative session Friday and said, "You are f---ing dead."
Despite the following report from the Northwestern at 12:53 PM Monday [2/28/2011], no major media outlet
other than Fox News has covered this disgusting story.
Protesting
Teacher: Give Us the Billionaires' Addresses! The Democrats and the unions had a very bad election
last November. Their only hope of stopping the inevitable demise of collective bargaining privileges
for public sector employees is by swaying public opinion. The unions are playing a very weak hand, and
the protests are their "ace in the hole." But what's inexcusable is the attempt of some protestors to
villanize and make veiled threats against private American citizens (namely "The Rich").
Hate
and Violence From the Left; It's Not Right. How much longer can the Democratic Party, the mainstream
media and other leftists successfully maintain the ruse that intolerance, hatred and the propensity for violence
mainly come from the right in this country? The lie is getting old. The left's ideas continue to
fail in the real world, and the majority of the people reject them, which is why their proponents so often disguise
their true intentions. Partially because they can't prevail on a level playing field, they use whatever
means they can to advance their agenda.
Union bile
runneth over. The Boiling Over of the Liberal Mind is on full display these days, and it is
not a pretty sight. Union protesters in Wisconsin compared Gov. Scott Walker to former Egyptian President
Hosni Mubarak and other tyrants. A sign showed him in a Nazi salute and screamed, "Heil Walker."
Another said, "Hitler, Stalin, Walker." Still another showed a swastika next to his name.
Progressivism Has Been "Outed".
Public sector workers have willingly abandoned the jobs they're paid to do. Unscrupulous doctors have
written notes filled with lies to protect them. The mainstream media has referred to runaway anarchist
legislators as heroes, and deliberately ignored the same hate-filled rhetoric directed at Republicans they
declared unseemly and dangerous after the shooting of Gabrielle Giffords. Rhetoric that reached a low
point on Wednesday, when Rep. Michael Capuano (D-Mass.) told a group of union supporters that "[E]very once
in awhile you need to get out on the streets and get a little bloody when necessary."
'Get a Little Bloody'.
The rhetoric around Wisconsin's government labor dispute is getting more violent. NHJournal.com reports
that Rep. Michael Capuano, a Massachusetts Democrat, said this yesterday [2/22/2011] at a Boston "solidarity" rally:
"I'm proud to be here with people who understand that it's more than just sending an email to get you going.
Every once and awhile you need to get out on the streets and get a little bloody when necessary."
Black
Tea Party Protester Endures Racist Heckling at Pro-Union Colorado Protest. A series of videos
making the rounds on conservative websites shows a black Tea Party protester engaging pro-union protesters at
the Colorado Statehouse Tuesday [2/22/2011], and at least one such exchange was unmistakably racist.
Radical,
Bush-Death-Wishing Guitarist Delights Union Crowd in Madison. While reporters like Adam Nagourney
"worry" out loud that the Wisconsin Republicans are going to look too extreme, AP somehow left out Morello's
truly appalling and extremist stands, like speaking fondly of Philadelphia cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal and the
Maoist Shining Path terrorists in Peru. If that didn't seem pro-violence enough, then there's Morello
praying for the drowning of President Bush in 2007, as reported in the Washington Post.
Left Using Twitter
for Death Threats. Gov. Scott Walker has received death threats via Twitter. He is no
stranger to this modern phenomenon, as just last month he and other elected officials from Wisconsin
received hate messages after the Rep. Gabby Giffords shooting. Death threats against public officials
have been increasing in the past few years, and now they're becoming commonplace. Mentally unstable
people are responsible for a large percentage of threats, and it appears the Left has more than its fair
share of uncivil, intolerant and moderately ill people in its ranks.
DPS:
Minnesota bomb plotters linked to Mansion fire. An anarchist group whose members were prosecuted
for plotting to bomb the 2008 Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., has been linked to
the unsolved June 2008 arson fire that gutted the Texas Governor's Mansion, officials confirmed this
afternoon [2/17/2011].
The Spider Hole Party. [Scroll
down] Meanwhile, parents in Madison, Wisconsin enjoyed Day Three of the unions' innovative home-schooling
program, as teachers once again left their students to rot while they marched around the Capitol with idiotic
signs. Some of these signs are extremely hateful, and even violent in nature, the sort of thing New York
Times editors fantasize about Tea Party activists carrying. One shows a photo of Governor Walker with a
crosshairs on his face. Another describes his budget proposals as "rape." Comparisons of Walker
to Hitler, Mussolini, and deposed Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak are plentiful.
Wisconsin: Progressivism in All its Ugly
Glory. Don't think for a second that the appearance in Wisconsin of the Democratic National
Committee, along with Barack Obama's Organizing for America, is merely a show of "solidarity" with the
"oppressed" public service employees. Wisconsin has become Ground Zero for a progressive movement
quite comfortable with the use of intimidation, threats of harm and precisely the same hateful rhetoric they
accuse conservatives of perpetrating whenever that particular bit of hypocrisy suits their purposes.
'Our
Political Process has been Stopped by a Mob'. If you want to know just how unruly the union
protests are at the state capitol in Madison, check out this eye-opening account from a Wisconsin political
insider over at a Milwaukee radio station: ["]Last night one Senator told me they had been told to
clear the Capitol because the new groups coming in overnight are filled with with people 'who aren't afraid
to be arrested' and the Administration could not guarantee the safety of the legislators and their staffs.
In our Capitol.["]
WI
protesters call Gov. Walker a dictator, put crosshairs on his face. What is happening in
Wisconsin is disturbing. Protesters have jumped on the Egypt bandwagon, claiming that "Cairo has
moved to Madison," which trivializes the real brutality and lack of openness of the Mubarak regime, and
claims a moral standing for the unions that they simply have not earned.
Union
operative attempts to destroy Tea Party rally's speaker system. Police officers in Madison detained
and subsequently released a labor union operative who attempted, somewhat successfully, to destroy the speaker
system at the Tea Party counter rally Saturday. Police would not release the name of the man, or any more
details, but eyewitnesses told The Daily Caller he ripped the wiring out of several different speaker systems.
Part of the sound system went out for about five minutes.
Wounded Iraq
vet jeered at Columbia. Columbia University students heckled a war hero during a town-hall
meeting on whether ROTC should be allowed back on campus. "Racist!" some students yelled at Anthony
Maschek, a Columbia freshman and former Army staff sergeant awarded the Purple Heart after being shot
11 times in a firefight in northern Iraq in February 2008. Others hissed and booed the veteran.
Is This How a President Should
Act? We are witnessing the logical conclusion of the Democratic Party's philosophy, and it is
this: Your tax dollars exist to make public sector unions happy. When we run out of other people's
money to pay for those contracts and promises (most of which are negotiated outside of public view, often
between union officials and the politicians that union officials helped elect), then we just need to raise
taxes to cover a shortfall that is obviously Wall Street's fault. Anyone who doesn't agree is a bully,
and might just bear an uncanny resemblance to Hitler.
Obama
And The Unions: A Lawless Alliance? Last month the president called for civility in politics.
Yet now he supports the Democratic lawmakers in Wisconsin who unlawfully refuse to do their elected
jobs — and the union mobs backing them.
The Many
Paradoxes of Barack Obama. When President Obama called for a new civility, I was somewhat
confused. In 2004-7, the uncivil demagoguery of the Left damaged Bush; immediately after Obama's call
for civility, someone wrote an "I hate Joe Lieberman" column; now, Governor Walker-Nazi signs have appeared
in Madison. Given that the country polls center-right, the hysterical style is something that the
modern Left uses to counteract public opinion; Obama has condemned a methodology that is predominately
embraced by his own hard-core base. (Indeed, swarming someone's private home, or using terms like
"enemy" and "punish," are not unknown to either the younger or older Obama.) The result is the hypocrisy
of condemning the incivility that will only become more useful to the Left as the election nears.
Call
The Civility Police: Liberal Threats And Violence Surge. Wasn't it just last month that we
had hypersensitive liberals going on and on about civility after Gabrielle Giffords was shot? Well
today, the same people who were hyperventilating over phrases like "job killing" are apparently peachy keen
with actual threats and intimidation. Why? Because most liberals are actually fine with political
violence and threats as long as it's aimed at their political enemies.
Bring in the rent-a-goons.
DNC
Caught Organizing Wisconsin Protests. The Democratic National Committee's Organizing for America
arm — the remnant of the 2008 Obama campaign — is playing an active role in organizing
protests against Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's attempt to strip most public employees of collective
bargaining rights. OfA, as the campaign group is known, has been criticized at times for staying out
of local issues like same-sex marraige, but it's riding to the aide of the public sector unions who hoping
to persuade some Republican legislators to oppose Walker's plan.
One More Thing About Wisconsin.
A common theme of the union demonstrators in Madison today was that Governor Walker is a "dictator."
This showed up on sign after sign. It sheds light, I think, on how public union members in particular,
and liberals in general, think.
Group
targets Speaker Boehner's (small-h) house. When did demonstrating at the private homes of politicians
or corporate executives become an acceptable way to voice one's political opinions? Nearly two dozen
activists from DC Vote swarmed House Speaker John Boehner's Capitol Hill residence at 7:30 Thursday
morning [2/17/2011] ...
Media
Myth: Liberals Never Use Violent Rhetoric or Imagery. In the weeks following the shooting of Rep.
Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) there was a constant media barrage dishonestly contending liberals never use
violent rhetoric or imagery. As Wisconsin's Republican Governor Scott Walker tries to balance his
state's budget with a bold move limiting the collective bargaining rights of public employees, the Left
have come out in force dispelling the myth that only the Right uses harsh tones to make its point.
Only
Fox News Highlights Nazi, Hitler Signs in Wisconsin Pension Debate. Wisconsin radio talk show
host Vicki McKenna appeared on Your World With Neil Cavuto to discuss the battle over whether state employees
will have to pay more for their pension and health care. Citing the attacks by liberals, she informed,
"I have been called the Taliban, Hitler... I mean, anything that involves dictator, tyrants or genocide,
historical references to slavery." In comparison, Good Morning News anchor Juju Chang spun the story:
"Well, a bill seen as the most aggressive anti-union proposal in the country goes up for a vote in Wisconsin
today." She simply claimed that state workers are "swarming the capitol in protest."
The Thugs
Come Out in Wisconsin. The last few days have made quite clear that, if you cross the
public-employee unions, you run risks: and not merely political risks (which are nothing).
I hope our national media will be covering Wisconsin, just a little.
Razing
Cain: The age of civility, like the era of post-racial politics, is a mirage created by liberals
to mute criticism of their policies by committed conservatives. Otherwise, we wouldn't see the continued
abuse heaped by liberals on women and minorities who dare to be conservative, members of the Tea Party or the
GOP, or all of the above.
Dallas Politician:
'All of you are white. Go to hell!' Most of you won't know the name John Wiley Price, but he's
obviously a man well qualified to hold a position at the Eric Holder Justice Department. What has Price,
a Dallas County Commissioner, done to distinguish himself? He told a group of five citizens, "All of
you are white. Go to hell!"
John
Wiley Price Tells Citizens To "Go To Hell". [Scroll down] Turner continued speaking,
ignoring Price's ongoing interruptions. At that point, Jenkins adjourned the meeting. As Price
stood to leave, he looked at Turner and the five other citizens who addressed the court. Price said to
them, "All of you are white. Go to hell!" Price repeated "go to hell" three more times. An
unknown member of the audience said, "You should be ashamed!" "I'm not ashamed!" Price answered.
"I'm not ashamed! Go to hell!"
Now
they think civility's a must. The years 2004-07 — between the failed campaign of
John Kerry, the Democrats' control of Congress and the beginning of the successful Iraq surge —
should be known as "The Insane Years." In that era, Gitmo was a gulag, renditions were the stuff of
Hollywood movies and President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney were deemed veritable war
criminals. I recall all that only because Oprah Winfrey just called for more civility to be shown
President Obama.
Union Boss Says Advocates for Spending
Cuts are 'Mentally Retarded'. In a perfect example of why unions are the biggest problem
for government budget reform, John Gage, President of the American Federation of Government Employees
(AFGE), has just pronounced anyone that wants to cut the overly generous pay, benefits, and pensions
of government employees are "mentally retarded." This is the to-the-hilt fight that the unions
will go to, not only to keep their cushy remuneration, but to enlarge it still more all on the backs
of the working poor taxpayers that don't have luxurious government jobs.
Democratic
Party chief charged in fight. The chairman of the Madison County Democratic Party is
scheduled to appear in Jackson City Court this morning on a charge of simple assault that stems from
an incident after a party meeting last week. T. Robert Hill received a criminal summons on
the charge and went to the Madison County Jail to be fingerprinted and photographed on Thursday
afternoon [2/10/2011], said Sheriff David Woolfork.
NAACP
Declines To Condemn Left-Wing Racist Attacks On Justice Thomas. The NAACP is quick to play the
race card when it means defending a left-wing agenda. In fact, they partnered with Think Progress and
Media Matters and New Left Media to launch teapartytracker.org, a website that publishes and monitors what
they consider "racism and other forms of extremism within the Tea Party movement." But after lefty
moonbats at a Soros-funded anti-Koch rally made unambiguously racist comments [about] Supreme Court Justice
Clarence Thomas ... The race card was nowhere to be found.
Why
do women columnists attract so much more hatred than men? It's mysterious how few people on
Twitter have commented on Melanie Phillips' latest article. She writes: ["]For during the past
seven days, I have been subjected to an extraordinarily vicious outpouring of hate and incitement to
violence, via email, the internet and in the mainstream media, and much worse besides.["]
What
if this had been the Tea Party? Imagine for five seconds had this been someone from the
Tea Party calling for the lynching of Justice Thomas.
Koch Protesters Call for Clarence
Thomas's Lynching. Ed Morrissey has an excellent roundup of the increasing incivility at the
Koch protests. Contentions previously reported on the use of swastikas at the demonstration,
and yesterday a video surfaced of protesters calling for Justice Clarence Thomas to be lynched.
Everybody Does It?
Really? As we noted yesterday, over the weekend Common Cause held a rally in California at which
numerous supporters of the self-styled "grassroots organization" were caught on video advocating violence against
Supreme Court justices and media executives — including calls to lynch the high court's only
black member.
Progressive
Ralliers Call for Lynching of Black Justice. We were joined by at least half a dozen busloads
of public sector union members and common demonstrators from AFFCE, The Ruckus Society, 350, Greenpeace,
Code Pink, and the Progressive Democrats of America, among others, without whose valuable contributions
to the yelling, the rally would've been just a lousy bust. Video camera in hand, I purposely engaged
them to get beyond their programmed talking points, only to find some rather colorful agenda items —
particularly for Justice Thomas. In post-Tucson America, where for the past few weeks a chorus of voices
on the left have amplified their attacks on the "racist tea party," "racist conservatives," "racist Republicans,"
and their "violent, irresponsible rhetoric" to the degree of accomplice-to-murder accusations, I figured a
left-wing rally such as this would also be a demonstration of the left's ideal, self-proclaimed rhetorical
composure.
'Rightwing'
Terror Suspect Turns Out to Be a... Leftwinger. It seems that whenever you hear about a "rightwing" hate
crime nowadays, it turns out the the perpetrator turns out to be a leftwinger... much to the disappointment of liberals
who continue to maintain the fiction about a violent Tea Party movement.
Climate Change: The
eruption of wild accusations after the shootings in Arizona illustrate once again that those who talk about
civility the most practice it the least. Pious calls for the restoration of civility have come from a
parade of pundits and pols famous for celebrating or rationalizing the most egregious violations of it.
The Threat of Leftist Violence.
In 1918, the Sedition Act was added to the Espionage Act of the prior year, making it a crime to publish, speak,
or write in a fashion critical of our form of government. Aimed at the radical Progressives, there
were more than two thousand successful prosecutions under the act. The Sedition act was upheld in the Supreme
Court numerous times as a perfectly constitutional means of protecting the Constitution from those who sought to
subvert it. Twenty-two years later, the Smith Act made it illegal to advocate the violent overthrow of the
government. Yet just the other week, MSNBC anchor Dylan Ratigan committed prosecutable violations of both
acts when he hosted a segment on his show featuring cartoonist/author Ted Rall discussing his cheerful new book,
The Anti-American Manifesto. ... That such a discussion was held on a mainstream American news network
defies belief.
The Left's History Of Violence. What
constitutes violent political rhetoric is subjective; what constitutes political violence is more clear-cut.
One can debate whether the American Right currently has the market cornered on the former, as Krugman and Tomasky
suggest. But the latter, at least as assaults upon high-profile American politicians are concerned, overwhelmingly
stems from the Left. And let's face it: Violence, not "violent rhetoric," kills people. Four men have
murdered U.S. presidents. Three of them have been communists.
Whitewashing
Black Racism. Why haven't national media outlets reported on the vile and violent rants of the
New Black Panther Party (NBPP) thugs whose 2008 voter intimidation tactics got a pass from the Obama
administration? Simple: Radical black racism doesn't fit the Hope and Change narrative.
Palin
Targeted in Violence-Tinged Tweets Following Arizona Massacre. Critics of former Alaska Gov. Sarah
Palin have turned to Twitter to post hate "tweets" suggesting that "she should be shot" and "assassinated."
A four-minute video montage of the the "tweets" — apparently sent after Saturday's massacre in Arizona that left
six people dead and 14 wounded, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords — was posted to YouTube on Tuesday
[1/11/2011].
Angry,
hateful, violent, extremist liberals. Imagine a group of angry demonstrators toting swastika-festooned
protest signs calling politicians Nazis, shouting obscenities and racial remarks and throwing rocks and bottles
at police officers sent to keep order. No, these are not Tea Partiers. They are the mob that turned
out last week to protest Arizona's new immigration-enforcement law. This group of liberal rowdies has been
dubbed the Tequila Party. For the most part, liberal media coverage overlooked all the leftist violence.
Typical headlines described the protest as "mostly peaceful," with media outlets avoiding details about why they
had to use the qualifier "mostly." Reporting a near-riot by the opponents of the Arizona law doesn't fit
the dominant media storyline.
Liberals
Openly Call For 'Violence' And 'Revolution' On MSNBC. On Dylan Ratigan's show, liberal cartoonist
Ted Rall, author of the "Anti-American Manifesto", suggests violence may be the only way to save America.
Sick Thinking From 'Mainstream' Leftists.
The Obama left, realizing it has really stepped in it with the American people by cramming Obamacare down our
throats, has decided to blunt the backlash against it by tarring, yet again, mainstream conservatives as racists,
bigots, homophobes and violent. Its tactics are objectively despicable.
Democrat Alderwoman
hits poll worker with car. As the nation turns against them, more and more Democrats are going
nuts, behaving in bizarre, and sometimes violent ways.
Lib
Talker Malloy Calls for Deaths of Limbaugh, Beck and O'Reilly. As the mainstream media
hyperventilate over what is now regularly being referred to as rightwing hate speak, liberal talk radio
host Mike Malloy Friday actually called for conservative talkers Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Bill O'Reilly
to commit suicide.
Conservatives
in the Crosshairs. The bullets had hardly stopped whizzing when a cataract of commentary descended.
The first inundation came mostly from the Left. Its basic message was epitomized by Paul Krugman: The
shooting was probably politically motivated. The Tea Party. Sarah Palin. Scary. "The
climate that preceded the Oklahoma City bombing." Beck. Limbaugh. "The evils of
Partisanship." "Culture of hate." Et cetera.
Advocate of
Violence. In the olden days, Frances Fox Piven was a cutting-edge social theorist of the
hard left. In a 1977 book, she and her husband, Richard Cloward, argued "that the poor and unemployed
are so isolated from the levers of power in America that their greatest potential impact is to withhold
'quiescence in civil life: they can riot,'" as Stanley Kurtz reports in National Review Online.
Coulter Foes Launch Hate-Filled
Attacks. Many of those writing the negative e-mails are outraged that a conservative
would ask a conservative author questions from a conservative's perspective for a conservative
newspaper. One person writes, "You are so unfair and unbalanced!" Well, there goes
my shot as a Fox News anchor.
Patrick J. Kennedy faithful flooding
Rhode Island GOP with 'hate mail'. Rhode Island Republicans have received piles of "hate mail"
from supporters of U.S. Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy, angry that the GOP has called for the troubled six-term
congressman to step down. "This has clearly hit a raw nerve somewhere," Rhode Island GOP spokesman
Chuck Newton told the Herald. "We've received mountains of hate mail from all over."
Hate speech from the left - 2005
edition. [2004 was] 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 unheard-of 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.
The extreme sport of insult:
The hard left decided long ago that George W. Bush is Hitler. In maddened corners of the Internet and at
swastika-choked antiwar marches, Bush is shown with a Nazi uniform or a Hitler mustache.
DNC Stands By Rangel After 'Hate Speech'. The
Democratic National Committee yesterday [9/27/2005] refused to distance itself from Rep. Charles Rangel's
comparison of President Bush to an infamous Southern segregationist, Theophilus "Bull" Connor, remarks the
Republican National Committee identified as "hate speech" and urged the DNC to repudiate.
Hate in America: The
protesters, while unable to disrupt the Republican National Convention as intended, represented a disturbing
new development in the nation's politics: hatred in the streets. The organized demonstrations were
purely negative, attacking George W. Bush with scant expression of support for John Kerry. Individual
marchers singled out any person they thought might be a convention delegate, firing off angry, often obscene,
denunciations.
Politics Of Hate:
Its one thing to scare senior citizens about Social Security reform with hate speech, but to go so far as
staging an assassination of the president over his idea for a Social Security fix, is kind of over the top. In
researching the politics of hate, I was surprised to get 1,690,000 hits on Google for "hate Bush."
But I was astonished to get 1,140,000 for "kill Bush."
PETA Thug Arrested.
Billy Prusinowski, a 19-year-old college student, was arraigned last week on second-degree assault charges in
Syracuse, NY. Police say Billy punched a fellow teenager in the face so hard that he needed to see an eye
surgeon. They also say he's "affiliated with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals," according to
the Syracuse Post Standard. When Billy arrived at his arraignment, the paper adds, "he had PETA
literature and what appeared to be a member card with him." Police Captain Tom Winn told the Post
Standard that this "vicious assault" was motivated by the victim's family business. The victim's father,
you see, owns a fur store.
Blind
Anger. Anger, the most toxic of emotions, has poisoned the American left and
much of the Democratic Party. ... Anger has become the fashionable political mood in America's faculty
lounges, big city newsrooms, and Democratic political events. Anger is a terrific
motivator. Angry people contribute money, go to events, wear buttons, t-shirts, and
funny hats, and readily slap bumper stickers on their Volvos, Beetles, mini-vans, and Lexuses.
Left wing
climate of hate and assassination. Successful propaganda is composed of equal parts
deception and suppression, and the apparatchiks in the mainstream media are much better at the latter.
They may have erred in pushing the Arizona assassination attempt beyond its ideological limits last week,
but they succeeded brilliantly a few months earlier in suppressing news of a nearly lethal attempt by a
genuine leftist.
How About Some 'Civility' Toward College
Conservatives? After the tragedy in Tucson, Arizona, President Obama said Americans must
respect each other's views and we should begin "talking with each other in a way that heals, not a way
that wounds." It's ironic that Obama, the leader of the American Left, has called for civility
when it is his followers on college campuses that have eagerly denounced, shouted-down, and even
assaulted those who dare express different viewpoints from their own.
"If
they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun."
"I
want you to argue with them and get in their face."
Thugs In Velvet.
A pack of leftists has put a $200,000 price on the head of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Tom Donohue.
Oh, it's not a plot to kill him, they claim, only a bounty to get him arrested. ... Monday [12/7/2009], Fox
News reported that a coalition of 120 left-wing groups called "Velvet Revolution" issued an Old West-style
"wanted" poster, complete with a tip hotline urging anyone connected with the Chamber president to come
forward with information that will get him arrested. It offers guaranteed anonymity for tipsters.
Intimidation nation.
Almost every destructive agenda being promoted in America today is being advanced, not through logical
argument, but intimidation. Take the Obama crowd. The president, a disciple of Saul Alinsky,
and his administration rely heavily on ridicule, which is very intimidating. ... When normal citizens
opposed Obama's unprecedented power grab right after inauguration, his Department of Homeland Security
labeled them "right-wing extremists" and terror threats. When Fox News aired stories critical of
his administration, Obama launched a bizarre defamation campaign against the only cable news network the
country watches anymore...
The Left Defends
Its Advocate of Violence. Glenn Beck continues to suffer an onslaught of programmatic
propaganda by progressives, who accuse him, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and Sarah Palin's kitchen sink
of inciting violence — while at the same time assailing Beck for his exposing the true
violation of Americans' lives and livelihoods by these neo-Marxists. Recently the right and
the left are fighting over Marxist agitator Frances Fox Piven, who, in her old age, has been caught
talking up violence to her callow trainees.
Hating Bush: We have
reached the point where much political debate consists of insults and name-calling, every attack is likely
to be called a "lynching," and tired expressions such as "institutional terrorism," "institutional racism,"
and "intellectual McCarthyism" are supposed to be taken as real arguments.
Self-indulgence: The
enraged speeches and street disorders across the country that accompanied the inauguration of President Bush
may tell us more than we want to know about what is happening to this country. Elections are supposed
to be an alternative to other ways of settling political differences, including riots, military coups and
dictatorships. But riots have been re-christened "demonstrations" by the mealy-mouth media.
Hate in America: The
protesters, while unable to disrupt the Republican National Convention as intended, represented a disturbing
new development in the nation's politics: hatred in the streets. The organized demonstrations were
purely negative, attacking George W. Bush with scant expression of support for John Kerry. Individual
marchers singled out any person they thought might be a convention delegate, firing off angry, often obscene,
denunciations.
The Shock of Barack.
When I see what Obama is doing to this country, how he is treating its citizens, I'm reminded of the man who
mugged me. I think that both are constitutionally incapable of seeing our humanity. And each day
that Obama is in office, he communicates this same deadly message to the masses -- that opponents are
not human. This would explain the burgeoning of hate and even violence towards those who deign
to disagree.
Is this Kristallnacht or the Reichstag Fire?
The hysteria over the "violent" right wing is just that — hysteria. The true danger here comes
not from the grassroots right, but from the Astroturfed left, which is being orchestrated and trained by the
Obama administration and its media minions to attack Americans who still believe in America's founding principles.
Schoolboy Kicked Unconscious
Over Confederate Book: A 13-year-old Houston boy who had checked out a book about
Robert E. Lee was kicked in the head and sent unconscious to the hospital, a Southern heritage
organization reported. The boy's mother and lawyer believe the actions of government school
officials set the stage for the attack.
Obviously this would be a hate crime — if it had been a predominantly black church.
Alaska Gov.
Sarah Palin's church purposely set on fire. Gov. Sarah Palin's home church was badly damaged by
arson, leading the governor to apologize if the fire was connected to "undeserved negative attention" from her
failed campaign as the Republican vice presidential nominee.
Arson suspected in fire at Palin's church.
A Friday night fire at Gov. Sarah Palin's church caused an estimated $1 million in damage, and
investigators say it could be the work of an arsonist. Firefighters were called to Wasilla Bible
Church about 9:40 p.m. and found flames and smoke coming out windows at the back of the three-story
structure, said James Steele, chief of the Central Mat-Su Fire Department.
ATF: accelerant poured
around Palin's church. Federal investigators in Alaska say an accelerant was poured around
the exterior of Gov. Sarah Palin's home church before it was heavily damaged by a fire. The Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said Monday that the accelerant was poured at several locations
around the church, including entrances.
Keeping Hate Alive.
When the New York Post went ape in a cartoon, the enemies of freedom and equality showed their colors.
Apparently the time has come to silence all critics of President Obama! He is the leader of our country
and must not be questioned!
Eco-Terror's Inspiration. Eco-terrorist
James Jay Lee [in September 2010] executed a dangerous hostage plot inside the headquarters of the Discovery
Channel. Armed with what appeared to be pipe bombs and a cheap pistol, Lee claimed to have been "awakened"
by Al Gore's film, "An Inconvenient Truth". Lee regarded humans as the "most destructive, filthy,
pollutive creatures around." His desire was to force the Discovery Channel to fill its programming
schedule with "solutions to save the planet." Lee was shot and killed by police. Sadly, Lee is
not first eco-freak to go off. In 2005 the FBI declared domestic eco-terrorism to be America's No. 1
threat.
