"In truth, all through the haunted forest, there could be nothing more frightful than the figure of Goodman Brown. On he flew, among the black pines, brandishing his staff with frenzied gestures, now giving vent to an inspiration of horrid blasphemy, and now shouting forth such laughter, as set all the echoes of the forest laughing like demons around him. The fiend in his own shape is less hideous, than when he rages in the breast of man.

- Young Goodman Brown by Nathaniel Hawthorne, 1835

FRiend, I learned something a long time ago- there are a lot of people who seem perfectly ordinary, until you hit the wrong button...

and then, they go stark, starin' bonkers on you.

This rude Moonbat may indeed be evil, but maybe he's just nuts.

It's a damned shame you were subjected to such nastiness at a party.

[truthfreedom]

Often, the purpose of debates like that is for the education of bystanders. The undecided in the room saw that the left was crazy and you were sane. You won.

[Canedawg]

I was the target of the most vitriolic tirade out of someone's mouth you have ever heard. The guy went on and on about how evil I was because I was a Republican...

You went to a party with Keith Olbermouth? And here i thought he was on SNL last night. :-) (P.S. That lout must be a fan of MSLSD. Monkey see, monkey do.)

Yes, EVIL is the right assessment.

2 Cor 2:15-16 says that the righteous have the “scent of Christ” about them which smells of life to those who are saved and of death to those who are not.

This is the reaction to SP.

[SterlingSilver]

Sorry you had to experience such vitriol, but we should be lifted by the fact that Gov. Palin is being so effective that it has the leftism's among us so freaked out and angry.

Remember that anger is always driven by fear and behind all anger is a fear that manifests itself through that anger.

Deep down in their hearts of hearts, these leftists are all justifiabley afraid that the outcome of this election is simply not going to go they way the Criminal Media is reporting it, that the polls that have BO “way ahead” are BS and worthless, and that there is no real broad American support for a socialist/communist to lead our nation...

That is their source of fear and that fear is the source of the anger that you experienced last night... ignore it...let go of it....its not yours to own...its their problem and I can assure you after McCain/Palin prevail on 11/4, its going to be much worse...

[Happy Rain]

Sarah Palin is garlic to the vampire,silver to the werewolf,mace to the rapist,S&W to the mugger,freedom to the tyrant,the cross to Satan,capitalism to the Marxist,pork to the Islamofascist,morality to the homosexual,protein to the Vegan,rib-eye to PETA,great taste to less filling,Carolina to Clemson,veracity to Obama,condoms to Clinton,the MSN to Rush,Clarence Thomas to the N.A.A.L.C.P.,maternal respect to Cindy Sheehan,comedy to Al Franken,science to Al Gore,good credit to Barney Frank,employement to the welfare state,bravery to Code Pink,acting to Alec Baldwin,God to the Left and last but not least,a real woman to N.O.W.

We simply MUST make the lady President then enjoy the evil heathens howls.

[mlocher]

Then it occurred to me: this is what we are up against. Pure, mindless hatred. Do I dare call it evil?

When I umpired baseball, I used to have to remind the parents that "I call 'em as I see 'em." The same applies here.

It is evil.

I’m so thankful that it’s not that way here in Alabama (for the most part). I wear my “I heart Sara” /McCain/Palin tshirt every Saturday to soccer games and to buy groceries and all around town. I have not had one bad comment. However, every time I wear it, I get about 20 responses of “I love your tshirt...I pray they win.”

[grey_whiskers]

Just smile and remind them that nearly fifty years ago, as an unwed, teenage white girl, due to give birth to a mixed-race child...

Obama's mother chose life.

Tell them that you approve of her choice. And ask if they do, too. :-)

Cheers!

[Nea Wood]

Just yesterday a friend of mine told me that her small town in Illinois always goes Republican, but this year, “because of Sarah Palin,” everybody she knows is voting for Obama. I don’t know what it is about Palin, but people either love her or hate her with a burning passion. Seldom in between.

[Bassfire]

Here is the real face of Evil BO is scarey!

[MrChips]

THANK YOU ALL FOR RESPONDING! I COULD NOT POSSIBLY REPLY TO YOU ALL, BUT YOU HAVE SHARED SOME WONDERFUL STORIES. GIVEN ME GREAT ADVICE, AND MADE ME FEEL MUCH BETTER. THANK YOU.

TONIGHT, SUNDAY, AND TOMORROW NIGHT, MONDAY, LIGHT CANDLES IN YOUR HOMES, SAY PRAYERS, AND WE'LL ALL FACE DOWN EVIL TOGETHER ON TUESDAY. GO TO THE POLLS! TAKE GARLIC AND CRUCIFIXES WITH YOU! AND BLESS YOU ALL!

Welcome to the front line of the Culture War.

[dmanLA]

What’s going on here is projection. It’s the easiest thing for people that believe in moral relativism. Nothing is ever their fault. Which means it has to be someone else’s fault.

Every failure or disappointment that they experienced is now a result of Bush’s policies (BDS). Now Palin is vocalizing morals, values and strength for our country so they project it on her as well (PDS).

Both BDS and PDS are completely irrational.

A few weeks ago, I got the same treatment from my brother, whom I am very close to. We have always been able to tease eachother at election time. You are right it was frightening.

He called me the other night and asked me why I haven’t called him. I told him exactly why. He scared me when he talked that way. He had no idea that what he said was that bad. He said he was sorry. He had no idea he came off that way.

I reminded him that I loved him. I think we are ok now, but I will never trust him if Obama gets elected.

Go McCain/Palin!!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Take heart!

His hatred betrays the fact that he knows Obama is going to lose.

You get the final word on Tuesday, without saying a word.
