(Excerpt)

9) "Doesn't a part of you wish that Queasy and Duh-day were alive?

I'll admit they're scum and rightfully so, but anything that lands as even more humiliation on W's grotesque shrivelled face is that much the better.

It's sad, really, that as despicable as they are, Saddam's family seems to be the lesser of two evils when you compare them to the wretched little b*stard* occupying the White House and destroying America in the process..." -- thermodynamic

8) "I'm assuming (Michael Kelly's) family won't be reading this, but frankly, I'm gratified to learn that he paid the ultimate price for his sins of warmongering. This guy was scum. My first thoughts on seeing the thread were that I hoped it was that scum Post warmongering writer. My second thought was that it was a late April Fool's joke. But no false sadness from me, only happiness that someone as mean and vicious as Mike Kelly got what was coming. As for all the posts about "coming by his views honestly" and "not speaking ill of the dead", congratulations on taking the high road guys, but *ssholes like Kelly have to die sometime, and I prefer it is as a direct result of their sins. But what do I know, I'm happy that Reagan has Alzheimers and that * has access to pretzels. I wish death on my enemies, and these guys are enemies." -- jackswift on the death of Michael Kelly in Iraq (Excerpt)

6) "...We know the recall's about getting a Repub Gov. in office in order to make California easier to steal, or make the 2004 Election at least close ENOUGH to steal our precious Electoral votes. We know it has nothing to do with Gray Davis being crummy, really.

...I think Rove's got something particularly nasty up his sleeve this time that will change Arnold's fortunes dramatically. I mean, he's about to subject himself and Maria to more salient stories about what he calls "getting my helmet polished." This could be humiliating to him, even before he loses. But what if he "knew" the fix was in?

...My tinfoil hat theory is this:

ROVE/BUSH/CHENEY ARE GOING TO INSTIGATE SOME MIHOP (made it happen on purpose) TERROR ATTACK, BIO ATTACK IN THE US, MAYBE CALIFORNIA, WHEREBY CALIFORNIANS WILL BE CLAMORING FOR A "STRONG" GOVERNOR TO PROTECT US! THEY CAN FINISH THE JOB ENRON STARTED, AND GET A REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR TO HAND THEM THE STATE IN 2004." -- CaptainMidnight (excerpt) 3) "When the 2nd plane hit the WTC I remember thinking......OMG, he's got his war now. Then, the next day or the day after that, when the roar of "war with Iraq and Afganistan" really got going I couldn't help but think "well Bush II get's to finish Daddy's work now". As for when the plane hit the Pentagon and the other plane went down in that field in Penn I screamed at the TV, "Get the WH, for God's sake you missed the WH." I invented some cuss words on that one. There were times before 9/11 as well as in the days to follow that the boy king mentioned Saddam "tried to kill my Dad" and couldn't help but scream at the TV each time, "Well, give him a medal for effort anyway." -- LiberalLibra

2) "What we MUST realize in order to win - Americans are stupid and uninformed. This is very important because in order to win we must understand the way the average American thinks. I'm afraid WE have nothing in common with them.

I came to the two following conclusions when I saw the large number of people who voted for Bush back in 2000.

#1 - I would dare to assume that most of us here are in the upper 1%-20% of the population intelligence-wise. We must come to the realization that the majority of the population is in the lower 80% to 99% percent of the bell-curve. WE are not the norm. The Republicans understand that the average American is not very bright. They cater and pander to the masses. The Democratic Party tries to appeal to the population about "issues" that these people just don't understand.

I've heard it said that the reason that Clinton's sex scandal resonated so strongly among "the people" was because it was a scandal that the average American understood. The average person can't understand a financial scandal.

In addition, people of average or lower intelligence tend to not be as logical or reasoned as those of higher intelligence - they deal with emotion. Therefore they are more likely to get riled up about someone burning a flag rather than a illogical tax cut.

#2 - The majority of people do not read the newspaper OR listen to the news, CNN, etc. Therefore -they get their news from the Tonight Show, Letterman, Oprah and Saturday Night Live. Or, they get their news from talking to their co-workers at the water cooler.

Also, for the few people who DO listen to the news - who do they hear it from? Fox News and Bill O'Reilly are the most popular. Most newspapers and media outlets are owned by Republicans.

THIS is what we are fighting against people. In order to win we will need to start pandering to the masses." -- Janekat

1) "I realize that not every GI Joe was 100peeercent behind Prseeedent Booosh going into this war; but I do know that that is what an overwhelming number of them and their famlies screamed in the face of protesters who were trying to protect these kids. Well, there is more than one way to be "dead" for your country. They are not only not accompishing squat in Iraq, they are doing crap nothing for the safety, defense of the US of A over there directly. But "indirectly" they are doing a lot.

The only way to get rid of this slime bag WASP-Mafia, oil barron ridden cartel of a government, this assault on Americans and anything one could laughingly call "a democracy", relies heavily on what a sh*t hole Iraq turns into. They need to die so that we can be free. Soldiers usually did that directly--i.e., fight those invading and harming a country. This time they need to die in defense of a lie from a lying adminstration to show these ignorant, dumb Americans that Bush is incompetent. They need to die so that Americans get rid of this deadly scum. It is obscene, Barbie Bush, how other sons (of much nobler blood) have to die to save us from your Rosemary's Baby spawn and his ungodly cohorts." -- Starpass

If bush wins again I suggest everyone buy a high powered sniper rifle with a few hundred rounds and learns how to use it quickly.

Well, I'm sure that the thought has occured to a great many of us, albeit it in a different context, and never in a public forum intended to intimidate. The irony is that these defectives cannot see the illogic in screaming "murdering scum!" at our military, and with their next breath making intimidating threats such as this one, on a personal level. The emotional level of these so called adults is mind-boggling.

Have you listened to a Dean speech? He does sound like Hitler, only I'm glad he does it in English because I don't understand German.

If you believe that this rises to the level of utter insanity equal to DU, I would invite you to really punish us severely with that "sinking to their level crap" and get your pink little butt over there.

Well, then, I guess liberals have a point when they call the Bush Doctrine Hitleresque, too? I think not.

Look... IMHO, it's simply better to attack Dean's policies and positions from a logical standpoint. Once you start equating him to Hitler, the argument becomes too emotionally charged to mean anything.

Don't get me wrong: I have been known to call Hillary "Hitlary" in jest, but I don't consider that a particularly insightful or helpful thing to do.

And, my "pink" butt isn't going anywhere. :-P I'm conservative through and through... I just don't like subtle hypocrisy.

DUmmies shop at REI, Freepers shop at Cabelas (at least this Freeper does).

My family drools over the Cabelas catalog when it arrives:) and we do know when to come in out of the rain and if stuck we know how to use our gortex waders!

[EscapedDutch]

"...our precious Electoral votes..."

[suzyq5558]

Lord help us........

"Paul Wellstone Killed By CIA Energy Beam"

Kinda like a ZOT? Hmmm...

[EscapedDutch]

You must have been in their lower 80% they were talking about.

[alnick]

The difference I see is that the nutcases on FR are a small percentage of the general population. They're the norm at DU.

[MeekOneGOP]

My God.

I heard they think that Bush caused the earthquake in Iran ! ...

[MeekOneGOP]

... and thanks for the ping ! haha ! They're DU(h)mented !

[bootless]

"if Gore had been in office he would have immediately imposed progessive marxist economic policies to begin distributing wealth fairly in this country instead of letting a few hogs oink up all the money. THERE IS NO FREEDOM IN A SOCIETY THAT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO OWN PROPERTY. IN ORDER FOR PEOPLE TO BE FREE GREED MUST BE BANNED. WE SAW THE RESULT OF GREED ON 911/"

Oh. My. God.

Sounds just like Saul Alinsky. Who was the mentor of ... Her Heinous.

This is why envy and power do not mix.

There was a thread on DU where they were reveling in the fact that FReeper LadyPilgrim's son was missing. They were hoping he was dead. I saved the URL for the thread, but it looks like they've deleted half the posts on the thread.

"it has pleased me much to see the rage these DUmmies have for the President, as i had as much rage for the ex pervert for eight long miserable yrs"

There is one big difference....our rage was justified. Theirs is misplaced.

[MeekOneGOP]

hehe ! Here are their hero-activists ...

This is how Pelosi's San Francisco constituents "Support" the troops (March 2003) ...

Here is a link to the SF-IMC site where these FAR LEFT LIBERALS posted an actual pic (above) of one of their Support Saddam/Terrorists events in March, 2003 and changed the image when I posted/linked it to an FR thread. The pic at the top of that link of 2 Allied Soldiers transporting a prisoner to Gitmo was what they changed it to . . .

These folks at San Francisco Indy-Media are terrorist supporters . . .

Oh, the lurkers on FR from SF-IMC CANNOT change that picture (above) now since it is hosted by FR friendly sources !

[two23]

DU: The rantings of the doomed? Great wailing and gnashing of teeth???

[alnick]

They only have about 20 posters, all of whom post under 30 or 40 names. :)

Aren't they ranked in the top 6,000 sites on the internet? It's not ranked nearly as high as FR, but it's nothing to sneeze at.

It would be one thing if they were just a handful of nutjobs posting on a web board, but they're pretty mainstream in the activist population of the democrat party, IMO.

[gatorbait]

1. Well folks, get a load of the crap we had to listen to during the Vietnam era such as the Viet Cong were like Jesus Christ.

Naw, the VC/NVA were elevated MUCH high in the trinity than the mere Son of God.

[Don Carlos]

If bush wins again I suggest everyone buy a high powered sniper rifle with a few hundred rounds and learns how to use it quickly.

Sure hope this DUmbass enjoyed his conversation with the SS.

My opinion of the wierdo's who post there is they should be dis-enfranchised for life, and sterilized to boot. Waaay to stoopid to participate in something as serious as the elective process!
