I had the misfortune of listening to Air America last night at about 10 pm Central and some nut was raving on about the "Republicans are Nazis" theme and he went so far as to say to all of us who voted for George W. Bush, "Damn you all to hell!" He repeated that several times. He then went on to say that Democracy is over in the United States and that a Theocracy was being formed. Pure, 100% unadulterated hate speech.

Yep. I happened to hear that too. Did you catch the part where he mentioned that the suicide bomber who blew up that mess tent was a Saudi, and called him "one of Bush's Saudi friends"? Unbeliveable.

I occasionly listen to AA and read the DU. I find the observing the meltdown of the left to be morbidly fascinating, like driving by a bad car wreck. In addition to the most gross accuasations by the left, what's notable is the utter lack of any expression of a contradictory opinion. The articles of faith among this crowd include...

Republicans are the same as Nazis.

There was a massive conspiracy to steal the last election. The exit polls were right and are proof that the election was a fraud. If not for this fantasy they would have to conclude that the majority of Americans are either pro-Nazi, to too stupid/indifferent to care (actually they also claim this at times).

Bush is just waiting to impose a draft.

American troops are war criminals, the terrorists in Iraq are "resistance fighters", and "Iraqis who are defending their country" (unless they are "Bush's Saudi friends"). Occasionaly a DUer who has relatives serving in the military will object to calling US troops war criminals, and say it is only the adminstration who are war criminals. Not many though.

Republicans want Americans to live in poverty ruled by rich elites. "Ownerhsip society" means a return to slavery.

Reforming social security is just a trick to starve old people and throw invalids out in the street, while making stockbrokers richer. There is nothing Republcans enjoy doing more than making people destitute, unless it is killing inocent civilians overseas.

Republicans want a theocracy. A handful of the most extreme nutcakes who want the US Constitution replaced with "Biblical law" are constantly referred to as typical of Christian Conservatives.

There is a huge majority of people who are ready to support them and get rid of the Republicans, if only the Democrat party would stand up to the evil Republicans.
