The 10 Worst Quotes From The Democratic Underground For 2003
Right Wing News ^ | 12/31/03 | by John Hawkins

Posted on 12/31/2003 7:19:21 AM PST by chiller

(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

I've posted on DU. Not to be a troll either. I respectively disagree with whatever topic I've chosen to disagree with and put forth a differing point of view. whew. It never goes well.

The last time I did it I respectively stuck up for the police officers in Cincinnati. I was informed, and I'm paraphrasing, that I just don't understand.

That website drives me nuts and I know longer subject myself to their stupidity.

The DUers were disappointed in the Soviet Union's leadership at slaughtering millions of people,

Deeply saddened, were they?

It's obvious that this mentally impaired idiot doesn't have a clue to how the Bell curve is defined. He, she, or it is clearly among the 1%-20% of the lowest IQ Americans.

I am convinced that more than a few of these posters are "plants" from FR. Their intent is to get the most outrageous statements in print (and to garner on-the-record support for such eye-poppers) so that DU and the Dim Party will become inseparable in the eyes of the general public from these outlandish positions.

Actually, I used to troll there just to try to goad them into looking like even bigger idiots. I'd take a standard leftist position and carry it just ever so slightly to the left, just before it hit the ridiculous mark and then see who'd take the bait and carry it across the goal line. ;)

None of the Clintons or algores came near qualifying for MENSA at a dinky mid-130s entry level.

The Clintons tried in 1992, but MENSA told them they would have to pass MENSA testing administered only by a MENSA certified psychiatrist.

The Clintons gave up and just started releasing that "smartest" PR baloney thru their media pimps.

Most testing is now all "normed" and MENSA will not accept it.

For all the DU lurkers, I beat out JFK by 68 points when I was only 12.

Never required the DU obscenities and insanities to write either.

I agree. I am glad that the moderators deleted a FR thread today dancing for joy that three journalists were injured in a bombing of a restaurant in Baghdad today.

"I can't believe these hateful fools think they are intelligent. They sound retarded to me."

Let's just make sure you couldn't compile a similarly outrageous list from FR.

I remember following some DUmmy's link into his personal website where he wrote that he wished Dubya would die, and would gladly do "the deed" himself - given half a chance.

It was with great pleasure that I filled out an FBI complaint on the little psycho!

Sad to say, there's some truth to this, especially if you take out 'tax cut' and put in 'prescription drug plan.'

So many, SO many ignorant ridiclous statements to choose from!

I'll chose this one: #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.

To ASSUME you are in the top 1% - 20% of the population in intelligence, does nothing more than to demonstrate 'your' ignorance - especially with the "delightful" language used on DUh!

How many posts have you PERSONALLY seen where a Freeper attacks the physical appearance of Hillary, Albright, or - more recently - Howard Dean's wife!?!?

Ah, but you must understand, we say these things without having to worry about getting our mouths washed out with soap!

Call me old fashioned, but gutter-language does NOT appeal to me.

DUh is definitely representing the mindset of a lot of RATs. Have you ever read the "reader comments" on Slate (that bastion of fair and balanced journalism)? They just spew hatred and four letter words, often completely unrelated to the story.

There was a story on either Slate or Salon a couple of years ago. It was supposed to be a peek into the average American's mind regarding 9/11 -- what people really thought about 9/11. It was e-mails received by the publication by their typical subscriber which were reprinted annonymously. It was sickening. Comments about being turned on sexually by the excitement of the attacks and it was just like a video game. It turned my stomach.

The French nation actually accomplished something positive 200+ years ago. During the French Revolution, they introduced all the morons like those who posted this venom to a new invention. Good results!

"We must come to the realization that the majority of the population is in the lower 80% to 99% percent of the bell-curve.
Worth seeing again. LOL."

Right, their bell curve is rather strangely shaped - odd since they are so superbly intelligent.
