Take responsibilty is what this columnist can't fathom. Loving America, is something this columnist can't fathom.

Bring on Barbra Streisand, Sean Penn and Martin Sheen.

What is an offense to this columnist, is that we're not driving our party members out for them.

#1. Enjoyable Cartoons, Cincinatus' Wife!!!! Your addendum is well said!!!!

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Bump!

[MEG33]

Well said.The cartoon is great.{The New York laws should be fixed in NY.)

I am more tolerant of faults in my friends and family then people I dislike or don't know. I think it's human nature. And for this author to portend this tendency applies only to conservatives is nonsense.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

The LIBERAL media and democrat leaders work on the principle that they don't have to play by the rules. In their minds, rules are only for those conservative leaders who strive for and promote morals.

[TopQuark]

Rule: Celebrities should stay out of politics.

Exception: Unless the celebrity is Gopher, Frasier, Sonny, Bruce, that annoying comedian from Saturday Night Live who flopped as an NFL commentator or Schwarzenegger.

It's called the Ronald Reagan exception.

She cannot think straight. Even if someone mentions this "rule," it means, "Don't meddle." It does not apply to anyone's past if that person commits himself to politics as a full-time, or comparable, occupation. That is the difference between Reagan and Seas Penn. The latter has not yet committed even to speaking in complete sentences.

Thanks for posting this article and that delightful cartoon! Amazing that someone with the name "Joy" would spew such bile, but it is a measure of how enraged and deranged the left becomes in the face of the more conservative landscape when the right starts fighting back against the erosion from the left.

Please tell me how to get hold of the paper where this was published. There are freepers who can politely, dispassionately, and intellectually send this woman (?) back to her sandbox to pout.

"Laissez Faire" means "leave me alone."

Conservatives aren't perfect...but what the left wants is what?

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Yes, if LIBERALS have the facts to back up their argument, not just those unrepressed feelings, then let's debate. But if I might be so bold, I believe you're either ill-informed or a party hack if you subscribe to the progressive agenda.

They want to call us hypocrites. The problem there is, we've never claimed to be perfect.

Thanks! Apparently, I'm not very observant this morning yet!

Where are the normally vocal if not shrill FreeRepublic drug warriors on this Limbaugh situation?

[CWOJackson]

Actually, they're laughing at the libertarian efforts to use Limbaugh as their poster child somehow.

"Inasmuch as liberals have no morals, they can sit back and criticize other people for failing to meet the standards that liberals simply renounce." - Ann Coulter

[Cincinatus' Wife]

And no one gets away unjudged -- except, of course, for the right-wingers themselves.

Poor LIBERALS just can't stand judgment. That's why they love the self-esteem, anti-American curriculum in public education that champions the idea of no class valedictorians. You see, all must win and all must have prizes. They lie to the students the same as they lie to everyone.

BTW, isn't "right-winger" a judgment on her part?

[Cincinatus' Wife]

As usual, Ann cuts through the crap.

This one made my blood boil -- to the extent that I fired off an email response to the author. In it, I challenged her to two things:

1) To honestly -- yeah, right -- tell readers in her next column how much/often she has listened to Limbaugh's radio program, and

2) Call him on-air when he returns to host the show. I'm sure she'll get bumped to the top of the call list. And I'm equally sure that she lacks the guts and intellectual honesty to put words into his mouth in that forum.
