Right now, in the press, "rage" is all the rage.
At the New York Times, Maureen Dowd and Frank Rich - who may be the same person since they both wear dresses - have columns on the rising tide of anger in McCain's campaign. Dowd is calling the whole thing "seamy," and whenever someone brings up Bill Ayers, Rich sees a "violent escalation" in rhetoric. He links addressing real issues to an increased risk of Obama's assassination – meaning if you think voter fraud is important, you probably also want to kill black people.
True, a few nutbags in the GOP crowd shouted "terrorist" at the mention of Obama's name. But how does that compare to the insane froth found among the left? Christ: How many times have you heard President Bush called a "terrorist"? The Angry Left calls Bush a "war criminal," a "chimp," and have referred to him as a Nazi so many times he now goose-steps instead of jogs.
You want to talk about hate speech? Go to any Lefty protest. You'll see Old Glory remade with swastikas replacing stars. And what of those ironic hipsters wearing "Saran Palin is a C__t" t-shirts in Philadelphia the other day? I suppose when the media sees that, it's just edgy. However, I just see assholes destined for a lifetime manning the counter at Kinko's.
Nope, when the Left calls people horrible names, it's just politics -- a few fringe loonies, not be taken seriously. When that same anger comes from the Right, though, it reflects a larger philosophy of hate – one that labels anyone who doesn't want to spoon Noam Chomsky an Aryan Brother.
Look: the right knows Obama isn't a terrorist. He never tried to bomb the Pentagon and Capital Building. That was only a friend of his. Obama never said 9/11 happened because America's "chickens are coming home to roost" or screamed "G-d Damn America!" from the pulpit. That was just his pastor. We get it.
But the left realizes that if you want to kill a legitimate line of questioning, simply call something racist or hateful - and the media nods. It's the best way to make sure McCain loses gracefully – and it's working.
Frankly, I'd say it makes them all worse than Hitler.
Meanwhile, they keep talking about TROOPERGATE as if it’s a real thing equal only to Watergate. I HATE THESE PEOPLE.
Idea, I am going to go down to all the car dealerships, and tell the same thing to all the Car salesmen.
My wife wants to redo the kitchen - tell the re modelers the same.
Is there a way to show Rich what violence is without breaking the law?
Is there a way to show Rich what violence is without breaking the law? I’d sure like to show him.
Greg cracks me up! That show is much funnier than Jon Stewart, Keith Olberman and that other dweeb. [Whadaya mean Olberman isn’t a comedy show — have you seen it?!]
The last eight years has been one long anti-Bush hate fest at the New York Times and the only repurcussions have been that Paul Krugman received the Nobel. Palin makes a few understated comments about Obama “palling around” with domestic Terrorist Bill Ayers and now she is on the receiving end of an unprecedented witch hunt from these verbose, circulation draining fatheads.
The only conclusion that I can come up with is that the general public are getting wise to the depth of the Obama/Ayers relationship and it’s all hands on deck to cover it up.
It’s called do not buy his paper, do not read his drivel. Give him no place in the arena of ideas. Ignore anything he has to say.
LOL! I can’t read this without Greg’s voice in my head; especially the Hitler line:-) His delivery is 1/2 the enjoyment for us!
And if Obama loses, will there be HATE on the day after?
Or will O’D et all say “you must understand the RAGE”?
Hes probably to dumb to get it
"Nutbags"? Didn't Obama encourage Kenyans to riot after his cousin Odinga lost the presidential election there? I'd call that direct support of terrorism. And what about his friendships with the likes of William Ayres and Rashid Khalidi?
Thank God for DVRs and Tivo. I love this guy. I wish he was on for two hours every day.
Hes= He’s

The left writes its own rules about who gets to say what and how they say it.
Previously, we were treated to leftists calling for Pres. Bush to be killed to save the world.
The left is now worried about a few McCain supporters, but show no concern how leftists print vile things on tees and proudly wear them in public.

Maybe the way to fight back is to publicize the 'fact' that the words "hope" and "change" are really commie racist code words that Democrats use to mean "kill whitey" and "from each according to their ability to pay and pay and pay, to each according to their greed"...
Good post.
