Have you ever been verbally assaulted by someone on the political left with a ferocity you didn’t quite understand? Have you seen it happen to friends and colleagues, or watched in horror as the media establishment does it to a public figure?
At some point or other, nearly everyone on the political right has witnessed or been the victim of an attack designed not to elucidate facts, but rather to paint him or her as a villain.
My attention was recently drawn to a typical such calumny from a Facebook exchange:
Republicans hate anything that isn’t white, wealthy, and christian at least in appearance. They hate the poor, women, and minorities. They hate science and don’t believe that the global warming we clearly are experiencing is man made. They hate any government programs that help the poor and minorities, and the particularly despise immigrants, particularly the illegal kind. They love programs that line the pockets of oil companies, mining companies, and are willing to export jobs with wild abandon.
They hate public education, and they despise public schools and the public school teachers and public university professors. And since the do not respect the market place of ideas, they hate tenure (that gives teachers academic freedom) because it prevents them from firing teachers who are Democrats and who might infect some student with their liberal ideas. They want insurance companies to make a maximum of profit, and are perfectly willing for the health insurance companies to kill people by refusing service to anyone that might cost them a buck more than the median expense.
This is not a recitation of facts; it is a series of smears. It is the construction of a cartoonish super-villain, made of straw and woven together with calumny. The giant straw villain is

This is a very well written piece. Bravo.
Liberals also hate Conservatives because we KNOW what Soylent Green is.
The 3 REAL reasons that libtards hate conservatives
1. We are right
2. They are wrong
3. They can’t admit #1
Yeah, I opened the trap door and they fell into flaming hell. Just like the last dozen.
Because their boss hates my boss.
Lol. I have extended similar dance invitations.
I love This Bar!
Liberalism is a Mental Disorder
Copied and saved. Thank you.
From John J Ray: MESSAGE to Leftists: Even if you killed all conservatives tomorrow, you would just end up in another Soviet Union. Conservatives are all that stand between you and that dismal fate. And you may not even survive at all. Stalin killed off all the old Bolsheviks.

I’d be glad to do that, but they keep taking my money and trying to drag me down to Hell with them,
I know a lot of liberals who are really nice people and like-able in many ways....but that often instantly turns to hatred and disgust as soon as they think you have a conservative opinion about something.

Hmmm a very good list and I am sure I could be accused of some of those - then again most people might have committed at least one in the frustrating act of trying to get their point across. It usually happens when I have made assumptions because of what I see happening - Unlike God I do not see all though and we can all be a little blinded by both our experience and, at times, lack of the whole truth!
Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Liberalism requires no critical thought, just emotions and feelings. Liberalism is all about how something makes you feel.
Satan hates Jesus. That's the reason.
To liberals there can be no moral absolutes and conservatives hold to moral absolutes and from whence they come - The Lord!
He told us that they will hate us because they first hated Him.
Agree with Connell. Conservatives are generally happy, self-reliant people while liberals are largely morose, negative and depressed. Just take a quick cruise over to DU and follow a few threads. It is a dark and foreboding place.
I'm pretty narrow in terms of what I visit on the web since FR is a comprehensive, one-stop site and has virtually everything I need. I became aware of both DU and Stormfront a few years ago due to some posts here pointing out the idiocy of both place. Yes, both are inhabited by dark and morose types. Although DU and Stormfront may claim a different constituency, my impression is that they actually speak with one voice encompassing fascism, anti-Israel and pro-socialism agendas. To borrow a phrase from one of their fellow DemonRATs, George Corley Wallace, "there's not a dime's worth difference between them."
#2 reason: liberals hate consequences and deep down they are angry at themselves; since they flee from responsibility, there has to be a scapegoat. That's us.
