Michael Reagan: It's Not a Campaign, It's a Hate Crime
Cartersville, Georgia Daily Tribune News ^ | 7-7-04 | Michael Reagan

MICHAEL REAGAN It's not a campaign, it's a hate crime

America is witnessing one of the most despicable political campaigns in our long history ­ a presidential race filled with lies, distortions and outright hatred ­ and the offender is not the mythical Republican attack machine the Democrats keep talking about, it's the national Democrat party itself.

If anybody doubts the truth of this I invite them to look at one Michael Moore ­ slime master extraordinary, a practiced prevaricator, hater of America and radical socialist who has produced what nobody can deny is nothing less that a Democrat campaign commercial masquerading as a documentary.

Moore, however, is simply a symbol for an angry party gone mad. Utterly convinced of the fiction that President Bush stole the 2000 election from Al Gore who by divine right as a Democrat was entitled to occupy the White House which his party regards as their private property, the Democrats are in a state of uncontrolled rage. The symbol of the Democrat party is no longer a donkey, it's a crazed jackal.

Consider the thrust of the Democrats' campaign rhetoric ­ that when it comes to the president, to his administration, and to Iraq there is no such thing as good news. To them, the only good news is bad news for America. They want us to fail in Iraq so they can blame the president. They want the economy to go into the tank so they can blame the president.

Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, they bash the president no matter he does. They don't, of course, tell you how they'd do things differently, they only tell you that everything President Bush does is wrong and then assure us that they could do it better. They demand that the president pay more attention to the U.N., for example, and when he does work with the U.N. they give him no credit.

They demand that the President turn Iraq over the Iraqis, and when he does they growl and mutter because he didn't do it the way they say they would have done it ­ but they won't tell us how they would have done it.

They are giddy over Michael Moore's hate film. Yet they have the nerve to claim that the discourse in politics is getting meaner and meaner and they point their fingers at the Republicans as the culprits. It's not the Republicans, however, who are supporting films such as Moore's incredibly deceptive "Fahrenheit 9/11," filled with false charges and cleverly distorted images such as showing President Bush interrupted by reporters during a golf game allegedly attacking terrorism when he was really talking about the Palestinian bombings.

But the Democrats so hate George W. Bush that they are willing to believe anything negative about him, even to the extent of supporting Moore in his exercise of slander and deceit when they should be condemning it and disassociating themselves from the film as decent people would do when confronted with its deceptions.

The fact is, it has never been about truth with the Democrats ­ it's always been about lies because they still believe the Bush-stole-the-election canard, and as a result they are willing to believe anything about the president even if it goes beyond the realm of reason, as Moore's film does.

Face it, Michael Moore hates America. He goes abroad and tells the people in Europe that we are the dumbest people on earth. "We Americans suffer from an enforced ignorance," he told the British press. "We don't know about anything that's happening outside our country. Our stupidity is embarrassing."

He explained 9/11 by blaming the United States: "We, the United States of America, are culpable in committing so many acts of terror and bloodshed that we had better get a clue about the culture of violence in which we have been active participants."

He insisted that the terrorists currently killing our soldiers in Iraq can be compared to our Revolutionary War heroes who fought off British oppression: "The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not 'insurgents' or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy.' They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win."

This goes beyond hate crime -- it is nothing less than treason. And the Democrats by aiding and abetting and praising this traitorous person, share his guilt.

That's how far their hatred has taken them.

--Mike Reagan, the eldest son of President Ronald Reagan, is heard on more than 200 talk radio stations nationally as part of the Radio America Network.

I do not see that much logic is going to come out of the Democratic Party this year. It going to be like a dentist working with out Novocaine. There's going to be a lot of hurtful things said and done just stir emotional responses. The terrorists network will see this as a nation tearing it self apart.

The Democrats on the other hand don't care. Their attitude about terrorism is
Get used to it.
Crime-get used to it.
Taxes- get used to it, your going to pay more.
Government social programs-Get used to it ther will be more because it is one of the most effective way we have found to buy votes and enrich ourselves at the same time.

For someone who changed parties because he didn't like the RNC anymore, this is tough criticism.

This needs repeated everywhere since the national liberal media will continue to ignore what Michael Reagan has to say even though he speaks like his Dad. Pres Reagan would be even prouder today to call Michael his son! The media ignores the son that best emulates Pres Reagan to concentrate on the the liberal son to speak and represent the family. Ron Reagan is a disgrace to the memory of his Father IMO.

Exactly right, PKM !

I really like many Democrats, and it is sad to see them so consumed with bad thoughts. Perhaps we can refer them to a good political psychiatrist who can recommend some herbal remedies and yoga to cleanse their spirit of stress and bad feelings.

Actually, I was thinking more of a "colonic", followed by some shampoo and mouthwash...

Kudos, bravos and mega "There he goes again" (in a good way) dittoes to Michael Reagan. He and President Bush are two Americans with whom I'd love to hang out with at a BBQ, overlooking the ranch, sippin' a few non-alcs, talking about the greatness of America. I agree that it would be great to have him at the convention.

I see Karl Levin is allready out and discounting a report that the CIA screwed up on Iraq before the report is released.

You know, for everyone who has thought the same thing, about how traitorous, treasonous people like Mr. Moore and the like should be treated...since they like terrorists so much...just send them overseas (since they like to bash the country from there so much) and proclaim them to be the new leader of Hamas.

We're all recent history majors...Israel has its way of taking care of terrorist leaders...

Michael might as well carry his late father's torch and consider running for office. He has the conservative credentials as opposed to milquetoast half-brother Ron and enternal-chip-on-her-shoulder half-sister Patti.

Name one Republican President that the media didn't make out to be 1. stupid 2. lier 3. thief 4. incompetent 5. war monger 6. praised and takes care of the rich 7. take money and services away from the helpless 8. lazy
Richard M. Nixon
Gerald Ford
Ronald Reagen
George Bush
George Bush
Who did they make you think was the smartest, most caring, helped the helpless, punished business by raising taxes and didn't waste money
John Kennedy // there was some balance in media at that time.
Lyndon Johnson
Jimmy Carter // they loved him and he nearly buried the country/
WHO DID THEY LOVE THE MOST /// BILL CLINTON!

I agree with you 100%! Always have enjoyed listening to Michael Reagan. Now that Rush is sounding like the Rush of old, he has me back as a listener.

You picked an interesting picture. My family has decided that the Dem Veep has all the good looks of the Hollywood child of this series........... This is not to say he has the character. Just the suspiciously good looks.

Sadly, it appears that Ron Reagan Jr. is part of that hate group. How did none of that common sense manage to rub off on he and Patti???? I have a lot of appreciation for Michael Reagan. He spoke up for us alot when we were fighting the Jarbidge/Klamath Falls land rights issue.

Honestly, it's hard to like anything in politics much, you know? The bigger it is, the more morose, slippery and otherwise better off somewhere else. I don't remember the last time I heard a plain facts person. In spite of everything, the closest is Cheney. That man is a one-man brain trust.

The Clintons, who are still running the show at the Democratic Party, will do whatever it takes to keep George W. Bush from becoming a two term president.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I beg to differ. IMO, the Clinton's support of Kerry is far from genuine. They will NOT do whatever it takes to keep GWB from winning re-election. The Clinton's love and crave personal power more than they do the democrat party. They are very aware that Hillary's dream of becoming President will go up in smoke if Kerry wins. Bill wants to reclaim the White House as much as Hillary.
