The number 1 recc'd Diary at Daily KOS (Lamestream media chat site) is an article about our responses to Obama's release of Secret documents pertaining to the War today, under the title above. (I refuse to give KOS the hits by linking, it's on the front page if you want to read it.)
Given how KOS diaries seem to magicly end up as MSM pundit talking points within hours, I think we better be informed of this.
It goes on like this:
"As an attorney who spent her formative practice years defending the Constitution, all I can say about what I have read thus far is this: those "legal" memos make me ill.
As an American who wants to know what her government is doing (and has done), all I can say is: Thank you, President Obama and Attorney General Holder for bringing these disgraceful documents to the light of day.
Republican leaders: You have a duty to stop this. Sen. McConnell, Rep. Boehner, RNC Chairman Steele: Denounce this. Seriously.
noweasels's diary :: :: And, also as an American, I feel honor bound to bring to a wider audience the disgusting, hateful and dangerous reaction to the the release of those memos memorialized (if one can use such a benign word) today at Free Republic.
Yes, it’s Free Republic. And yes, it is likely that most of those posting there are arm-chair warriors, bloviating from whatever small bunkers they inhabit, while waving Confederate flags and cheering Rush Limbaugh; but, even for Free Republic, the comments I read today in response to our Attorney General’s decision to release memos that were themselves recanted by the Bush Administration, were beyond horrifying. And, in their own way, dangerous."
They go on to quote several of the posts on KOS. Especially siting THIS ONE:
"please, someone get this trojan virus in the crosshairs, and soon."
IMO, NONE of the comments sited on KOS constitute a "Call to Violence", but take note of the following:
-"weasels, I've forwarded your diary to my cousin in the FBI. he's a solid dude and will do the right thing. thanks for bringing this to our attention."
-"I hope the Sercret Service has agents reading these posts"
-"FreeRepubli is hard core kkk...These punks are the ones who will show up with a burning cross at night with hoods. DON'T FEAR THEM,DEFEAT IS THE ANSWER!!"
-"These people are spewing the same fundamentalist garbage they hate Muslims for. They have become their own jihadists. They are a danger to the Union and need to be called into account."
As for the Author, this is her/he/it's description of itself dated Nov 2,2008:
"I am very fortunate to live with my 78-year-old Mom. We’ve lived together since 2000, when my beloved Dad (her beloved husband of 49 years) died very suddenly and I got divorced"
I make no judgements of he/she/it, I'll leave that to you!
Please don't soil JimRob's house.
The idea that Obama is NPD has not been lost on many foreign investors. They are not interested in investing in Obama’s ‘agenda’ because there would be no ROE.
This is going to get ugly.
They are just angry little trolls that live under the foot bridge. Ignore them until they come out is day light. Then I think they melt on their own.
“I’ve wanted a bunker for years, years!”
Me too! I remember the good old days when you could buy a bomb shelter that looked like a submarine and bury it in the back yard.
I think I’ll research how to turn a basement into a bunker. I bet it could be done fairly cheaply.
I am proud of your early analysis.
Or hanging a Palin-look alike dummy “in effigy” at Halloween?
In the real world, that’s a big YES. But to leftists, anything they do is A-OK while we, on the other hand, are held to much higher standards of behavior.
It’s that usual leftist double standard workin there, dontcha know.
He’s a muslim, so what else could we expect?
Profile of the Sociopath
This website summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.
Glibness and Superficial Charm
Manipulative and Conning
They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.
Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as “their right.”
Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.
Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.
Shallow Emotions
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.
Incapacity for Love
Need for Stimulation
Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.
Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others’ feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.
Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.
Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet “gets by” by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.
Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others’ lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.
Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.
Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.
Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.
Other Related Qualities:
Contemptuous of those who seek to understand them
Does not perceive that anything is wrong with them
Authoritarian
Secretive
Paranoid
Only rarely in difficulty with the law, but seeks out situations where their tyrannical behavior will be tolerated, condoned, or admired
Conventional appearance
Goal of enslavement of their victim(s)
Exercises despotic control over every aspect of the victim’s life
Has an emotional need to justify their crimes and therefore needs their victim’s affirmation (respect, gratitude and love)
Ultimate goal is the creation of a willing victim
Incapable of real human attachment to another
Unable to feel remorse or guilt
Extreme narcissism and grandiose
May state readily that their goal is to rule the world
(The above traits are based on the psychopathy checklists of H. Cleckley and R. Hare.)
Thanks EBH! Well said.
I have personally testified at the trial of one moronic lib who made threats against Bush, and gave a deposition for another. The Feds take internet threats VERY seriously, and WE don't want to end up marginalized by the media, as DU has been.
