Liberals let loose on Palin and Joe the Plumber
CNN ^ | 10.24.08 | Ruben Navarrette Jr. (I swear!)

SAN DIEGO, California (CNN) -- I thought liberals were supposed to be good-hearted, open-minded and non-judgmental.

Tell that to the angry Left's favorite piñata, Sarah Palin. As far as liberals are concerned, Palin can do no right just as Barack Obama and Joe Biden can do no wrong. In fact, Biden is catching more passes than an NFL wide receiver.

Sorry about the excerpt folks.

I couldn't find this anywhere else. It is worth the click, even though I know a lot of us loathe CNN.

There are people who are surrounded by bigots
and know it is wrong, but are afraid to be vocal against it.
These people are going to pull the lever for Obama
and they are not being polled.

Ok, tell me why a person who never follows politics (yet is this year)- is telling me that Palin is doing “sinful” things. Does any of this make any sense? What is the media feeding the masses?

Satan’s howling minions -

this is the expected response when a righteous Christian appears in their midst.

“I thought liberals were supposed to be good-hearted, open-minded and non-judgmental.”

None of the liberals I know are good-hearted, open-minded, or non-judgemental. They are the most mean-spirited, bigotted people I know.

Great article, must read.

What worries me is that the Democrats aren’t what they pretend to be.

Obama supporters like to talk about how the Democratic presidential nominee has lived the American Dream. So why is it to so hard for them to conceive of a situation where someone dreams of earning more money a few years from now than they earn today. Has Barack Obama consumed all the social mobility this country has to offer, so there isn’t any left for the rest of us?

Oh, don’t worry about that -
fire back at them “name 3 commandments that liberal ideology doesn’t flagrantly flaunt, that they aren’t in open defiance to”.

“Socialism, yes, SOCIALISM is what liberals support, and shut your jaw, because if you deny it, you’re showing your ignorance- Socialism is based on Covetousness, Deceit, and Theft. And it’s what you’re supporting.”

Could the media be anymore open about who they prefer? Just a few months ago they were raving about Michelle O being the next Jackie O because of her style and wardrobe. Now all of a sudden Sarah is making ole Michelle look down right dowdy and oh my, the media starts foaming at the mouth! I HATE DIMS AND I TRULY TRULY HATE THE MEDIA!

It is surprising to see this on CNN.

“To prove it, the elites who run the Democratic Party — along with their surrogates in the media and organized labor — went after the plumber.”

“Even Biden and Obama got in a few licks. Biden quipped to Jay Leno that Democrats wanted to take care of “Joe-the-real-plumber-with-a-license,” and Obama sarcastically asked supporters, “how many plumbers do you know making $250,000 a year?” The implication being that Joe the Plumber isn’t who he pretends to be.”

“What worries me is that the Democrats aren’t what they pretend to be.”

The coalition of collectivists are exactly who they appear to be.

The coalition of collectives and their members will remain silent on any negative information on their chosen one. The negative information that gets amplified enough to resonate with voters will be deceptively twisted around or obfuscated by talking conmen. The collectivists designated thugs may attack the originator of the issue (witness Joe the plumber). Only in a rare occasion will the chosen one be required to reply with a convoluted non-answer. Depending on the effectiveness of the non-answer, the non-answer may or may not receive additonal amplification to deflect/obfuscate the issue.

You are only coming to realize that now?
