Rick Moran’s “Right Wing Nut House” Should Be Renamed “Nut House”
Axis of Right ^ | 9/18/2009 | Sal

Posted on 09/18/2009 10:37:31 AM PDT by SalAOR

I’ve counted Right Wing Nuthouse as one of the blogs I read on a regular basis for the past few years now (as noted by the fact that it is in our blogroll). I’ve always found Rick Moran’s articles to be interesting and thought provoking, even if I often disagreed with him (as he is a bit more moderate than I am). Yet, earlier this week, he wrote a column that I found to be a vitriolic attack on Rush Limbaugh for a typical Rush segment in which Rush illustrated absurdity by being absurd. The bit in question that Rick disagreed with dealt with the race-bating that has been going on over the past week, from the charges of racism on Joe Wilson to the Newsweek story that said we are all born racists. Rush took a third story, one in which a single white kid on a bus with all black children was beat up with the black children cheering, and the police declared that there was no racism involved. Rush took the stories and tied them together in one of his usual brilliant bits.

Rick Moran started out good, but has moved to the left since mid 200s. He’s pretty much a Brooks/Frum type liberal republican.

FWIW, he is the bro of Bush-hater Terry Moran, ABC News.

Wow. I just read the comments. Some of Moran’s readers tried to tell him to “calm down, it was satire.”

And Moran called them “closet Kluxer” and “Klansmen.”

Democrat thugs are up against the first real opposition that they've had since the election, far worse opposition than they ever expected. They're only now realizing that the old media no longer has the impact to tip the balance, largely due to the fact that they approved the cheer leading that same media did during the last presidential campaign. They had reasoned after the election the old media could recover it's reputation by going after the remaining republicans. As it turns out, the old media is falling apart faster every day. No one, even democrats, trusts them as a source of facts and unbiased information anymore.

Democrat desperation has driven them to signal their fifth column sites to go ahead and show their hand if they must. Having people float along saying their conservative in order to make RINOs look like the majority has been a valuable asset, but the democrat thugs are in a fight they're desperate to win. It seems like several sites that were widely accepted as conservative or independent have recently taken a completely out of character stance with the democrat leftists of late. That's no accident, it's yet another proof that the democrat thugs are desperate and have long had their fifth columnists on the web the same as they've had them elsewhere. Rush seems to be one of their major targets, but down playing the gathering in DC and mocking those who want to see proof of citizenship are also high on the agenda of these fifth column sites.

If you think this is an extreme viewpoint, I suggest you go back to the site mentioned in this article as well as any other sites that have been uncharacteristically pro democrat of all of a sudden. Look over their record of articles and I think you'll be surprised at what hindsight now makes clear. While it wasn't obvious at the time, I bet a you'll be able to see through a lot of their earlier material and discern their clear pattern of having tried to denigrate conservatives and conservative positions for a long time

Disinformation has been one of the favorite tools of the left ever since the time of Lenin. The web has been one of their best tools, granting them a wonderful means to gradually alter the perceptions of conservatives with constant if subtle negatives in their articles and comments by regulars on the fifth column sites. At some point, the RINO and democrat elitists will run out of these fifth columnists, but at the moment they're just starting to shed their false colors. Democrats being desperate enough to shed assets is good, but the fact that such fifth columnists have been effective at distorting conservative perceptions for many a year should sober up any conservatives who don't yet admit that we're already in an all out war for the survival of our Republic.

Regards
