Kennedy said his father wrote separate letters to him and each of his eight brothers and sisters the night of Evers’ murder, saying Evers had died fighting for his country.

Is this true? Has it been verified? I am inclined to call BS on his claim.

He knows that. The problem is the liberal HATERS who did nothing but openly mock the Bush administration with VIOLENT rhetoric for over eight yrs. now have the audacity to claim opposition as hate because the truth can do nothing but hurt them and their vicious designs for this country. They are the true censors and wannabe dictators.

Dog gone it.. If conservative don’t start pounding the media & let people know that these lefty lunatics are nothing more than seperatists. ‘Divide and conquor’ .. driving a wedge between Americans. Their vitriol is over the top way more than those they accuse. It needs to be said OUT LOUD .. A LOT.

These lunatics have been developing a major ‘bully’ attitude over the past 20 years (or more). It won’t stop until people start standing up to them. .. as we’ve recently started seeing with Newt - Paylen - Bachmann et al.

So called hate crimes are actually a crime and a thought crime. Thought crimes are quite problematic in all sorts of dimensions.

I find that a desire to implement hate crime legislation is hateful in itself. It's also hurtful as it hurts me to even think about thought crimes being actionable in the US.

Maybe we should try them on the hateful jihadists at Gitmo first?

Well, as I see it, the only HATE is coming from the
lefties. They are the ones who hate that conservatives
have a popular venue for debate and dialog, Talk Radio.

So, in that case, this disgusting piece of human filth is correct.

“So the bottom line, if you disagree with liberals you are spewing hate.”

Sums up the contemporary liberal perspective brilliantly.

The thing I’d like to know is if indeed the libs got their wish and every one in the world agreed with them, who would they have to blame for the disastrous results a completely leftist “utopia”/population would bring? Somehow, it would still be “all Rush Limbaugh’s fault” even if Rush became a lib.

We know for a fact that "Air America" & "The Huffington Post" aren't into "HATE"! /s


Maybe Kennedy should practice what he preaches, for a change!!!


******

He (Kennedy) is an environmental lawyer and co-host of Ring of Fire on the Air America Radio network.

In 1983, he was arrested in a Rapid City South Dakota Airport for heroin possession.

In 1984, Kennedy joined the Riverkeeper organization to satisfy the 1,500 hours community service to which he was sentenced. He worked with the group to sue alleged polluters of the Hudson River. After his 1,500 hours were complete, the group hired Kennedy as its chief prosecuting attorney

On May 16, 2008 Kennedy appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman, largely to promote a Vanity Fair article regarding the environment.

Since May 2005 he's been a contributing blogger at The Huffington Post, a blog run by Arianna Huffington.

Kennedy was named one of Time.com's "Heroes for the Planet"

In 2005, he argued for a link between global warming and Hurricane Katrina in an editorial for the Huffington Post.

In a 2005 editorial for the New York Times, Kennedy argued, "As an environmentalist, I support wind power, including wind power on the high seas (EXCEPT IN KENNEDY'S BACKYARD!)

In an article in the June 5, 2006, issue of Rolling Stone entitled "Was the 2004 Election Stolen?", Kennedy comes to the conclusion that the Republican Party stole the 2004 American presidential election.

Kennedy has been criticized for receiving royalty payments for participation in two family-owned oil drilling companies, and also for using private jets while lecturing about the perils of global warming.

On July 7, 2007, Kennedy appeared in New Jersey at the Live Earth event. His speech challenged the public to question the implied position of the energy industry that economic and environmental policies are mutually exclusive. He referred to several media personalities (Glenn Beck, John Stossel, Sean Hannity, and Rush Limbaugh among them) as "flat-earthers", and "traitors".

Governor Palin's Reading List

Facist writer Westbrook Pegler, an avowed racist who Sarah Palin approvingly quoted in her acceptance speech for the moral superiority of small town values, expressed his fervent hope about my father, Robert F. Kennedy, as he contemplated his own run for the presidency in 1965, that "some white patriot of the Southern tier will spatter his spoonful of brains in public premises before the snow flies."

It might be worth asking Governor Palin for a tally of the other favorites from her reading list.

Not only is he a liar, he is also a hypocrite!

******

A long-simmering disagreement within the environmental community over a plan to build a massive wind farm off the coast of Cape Cod, Mass., is now boiling over into a highly public quarrel.

The future of Nantucket Sound?

The four-year-old battle started heating up last summer when Greenpeace USA staged a demonstration against well-known eco-activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who’s been an outspoken opponent of the proposal for a 130-turbine wind-power project in Horseshoe Shoal, a shallow portion of Nantucket Sound south of Cape Cod. Kennedy — a senior attorney at Natural Resources Defense Council and a pioneer in the waterway-protection movement — was on a sailboat for an event with the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound, which opposes the wind project. A Greenpeace vessel cruised up alongside with a banner that read, “Bobby, you’re on the wrong boat” — a stunt that was part of a larger Greenpeace campaign pressuring Kennedy to change his mind on the development.

In mid-December, Kennedy, wanting to explain his position to critics and the public at large, published an impassioned op-ed in The New York Times in which he argued that the wind farm would mar a precious seascape, privatize a publicly owned commons, and damage the local economy.

Why liberal idiots think showing their naked butts will ‘save’ anything is another question I have for them!

This is “expert testimony” from a druggie who can't seem to get his act together. Amazing how the left falls all over each other to denigrate the right. I haven't heard one right-wing commentator discuss this man's substance abuse problems which he never seems to conquer.
