Freep this poll: Are Liberals Full of Hate?

The results of this should be interesting as the Orlando Sentinel is VERY liberal and now freepers get a shot at it.

That’s because NOTHING else matters to a true hardcore “liberal” than the advancement of communism.

to a video of a shark jumping over a surfer...

I wonder if sharks have a term analogous to “jumping the shark”...

Looks like you can vote more than once. :)

Yes at 83%

[laweeks]

I would have clicked BOTH yes choices as one did not negate the other...

I DID click both . . . I did what they do in Chicago . . . I voted twice! I think I'll have my dead grandmother vote too!

Liberals are minions from Hell. Even their great leader Sal Alinsky dedicated his book “Rules for Radicals”, to the first great Community Organizer - Lucifer!

What do you think?

Do liberals tend to be more hateful toward their political opponents than conservatives?

Yes. The clips of liberal Hollywood stars hurling hateful rhetoric at Sarah Palin in the new documentary about her is a perfect example. Liberals turn on anyone who dares challenge their views. (416 responses)

34%

No. A few outspoken Hollywood stars shouldn’t be taken as a representative sample of progressives, who as a group are much more accepting of other viewpoints than conservatives are. (56 responses)

5%

Yes. Liberals who complain about harsh criticism of Barack Obama hope Americans will forget how much more vicious left-wingers were toward George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, and how ruthless they are now toward any strong leader on the right, like Palin or Bachmann. (594 responses)

49%

No. All you have to do is listen to talk radio hosts like Limbaugh and Savage to realize there is plenty of hate among conservatives, too. (155 responses)

The Liberals need hatred and lies to justify their disliking Palin. Other than a purely irrational vitriol with which they parrot lies and distortions about her (which often go unchallenged just because they are so forcefully expressed), they would not be able to point to any one substantive reason for disliking her.

What would they say? "I dislike her because she's a good person?" "Because she kept all her campaign promises when running for Governor?" "Because she had an 88% approval rating?" "Because she worked well across the aisle to get things done for Alaskans?"

Without the lies and the hate, they'd look like idiots. Then again, they look pretty darned despicable draped in the venom as well.

Sucks being a Liberal.
