No, the Left are just big ol' meanies for pointing out that someone on the Right assassinated a doctor.

Joystk: Right. The left was responsible for gunning down a doctor, two Florida sheriff's deputies, and three Pittsburgh police officers.

Right.


FTFY.

Liberals tend to actually admit there are problems. Conservatives are denialists. Of course couservatives are more polite.

Well, a couple of conservative think tanks said it, so it must be true!!

Right Tim "Obama's tyrannical" Pawlenty and James "I don't know who's side [Obama] is on" Inhofe?

What major Dem/Lib figures are accusing anyone of tyranny or treason?

Lefties are the meanest?

I had my first automated, negative poll pop up on my cell phone today. First, it asked me if I voted for a Democratic candidate in the 2008 election, to which I said yes. Then it asked me if I planned to vote for another Democratic candidate, explaining she was the most liberal Democrat ever, to which I said yes. Then it asked me if I would still vote for her even though she double-charged her time to two different jobs on the same day, to which I said yes. It thanked me and hung up.

I remember in 2008 all the classy comments about Obama being a Muslim, not being an American, the racist comments from Republicans at their assemblies, even the stuffed monkey one old man had, dressed up as Obama.

I remember the passion and hatred yelled out over gays and lesbians, over liberals and Democrats, etc. here on Fark and in other threads in veterans' blogs.

I'm amazed at the right's level of denial and out-right lying. Look who they learned from.

"You can fool some of the people all the time, and those are the ones you want to concentrate on." ~ George W. Bush

AirForceVet: I'm amazed at the right's level of denial and out-right lying.

The best part is when someone pops up and says that the Republicans are recovering and they'll regain lost ground in 2010. That level of willful blindness amazes me. You'd figure after getting their asses kicked by Obama that the Republicans would learn from their mistakes. But no, they're gonna have to get their teeth kicked in yet again and lose the 2010 elections...which they will promptly blame on space aliens and solar flares, because as we all know THEY don't make mistakes, when they lose it's all a conspiracy.

 
kmmontandon [TotalFark] 2009-06-06 10:18:07 PM  
Because Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Newt Gingrich, Michael Savage, Bill O'Reilly, Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, et al, are so reasoned and genteel. And on the left, you have ... well, Michael Moore's fat, and John Stewart is a big meanie, and Rachel Maddow's a lesbian, so there.

FTFA: Daniels came to Washington Wednesday for a panel discussion, "Making Conservatism Credible Again,"

The republican party wouldn't recognize the definition of "Conservatism" even if it tapped them on their feet in a men's public bathroom stall.

Well, I see the left drug out ole timmy mcvie again, hold up the boogie man as everything wrong with the right wing parties. Let me drag out some old lefties and see if you can recognize them...There is Hitler(national socialist party) Mao (Chinese communist party) Stalin (Union of soviet socialists) and Pol pot (The ever famous KR killer). So timmy kills 500, and is never forgotten, yet these 4 kill 65 million and its forgiven by the left wing as just another day in the killing fields. I guess when you think its okay to kill innocent babies whats a few million adults!

The lefty posts here pretty much prove the point.

I've debated the left. I've debated the right. Generally, the right tends to be more polite, but I have run across extremely rude people on that side. The left's attitude is "you are a farking moron for not agreeing with me immediately, go fark yourself." And I've also debated with extremely polite people on the left.

Both sides can piss off. I'm tired of the left's rude dismissal of any opposing viewpoint and I'm tired of the right's cluelessness.
