Right Wing Attacks Collide: 'Racist' Obama Using Health Reform for Reparations
Commented Jul 29, 2009 at 12:18:05 in Politics
“It is sickening, isn't it? Here we have the first black American President and the haters are coming out of their trailers and the woodsheds. It also amazes me that most of the people carrying the RACIST, FEARMONGERING signs live in trailers or poor areas and live on food stamps. I am so offended by part of my society that brings all of this hatred into the light. It just shows everyone how ugly some people are and how big of bigots they have been in their lives............They don't want the government doing anything for them, but will line up for government handouts and medicare and medicaid and food stamps............Sickening thought processes. I am so ashamed of most of my nation with all of this rhetoric.....It saddens me terribly.”

Stop the Sexist Rants on Palin!
Commented Jul 07, 2009 at 11:41:03 in Politics
“You are asking us to stop the RANTS about Palin? I think that you need to go back and watch Palin's speeches during the campaign and listen to HER RANTS about our President. If you got any balls, you need to go face to face with her and ask her why she gave racial and bias speeches about a black man running for office. Take your 'sexist' rhetoric and shut up. She put her slacks on just like men put their pants on and if you can't stand the big dogs, get OFF THE PORCH.”

Is Sarah Palin the First Post-Modern Politician?

“Mr. Eskow,
Tell me something. Can you give me ONE POSITIVE thing to believe about Sarah Palin? I tell you what. Call her up and ask her to quote the Preamble to the Constitution or even sing our National Anthem..............Or, ask her what our Bill of Rights is, or even just ask her to name all FIFTY STATES of our country., I will bet you a dollar to a dime that she will not get a SINGLE one of these questions right. This woman is in need of a THIRD GRADE EDUCATION in English, Geography and MATH. Mr. Eskow, when are you and the rest of her loving PUNDITS going to just come out and say SHE IS DUMB AS A CRACKER. BECAUSE SHE IS.”

“Yeah the people that want her to run are the FAT WOMEN THAT LIVE IN TRAILERS AND will give ALL OF THEIR QVC money to support her....Did you ever scan the audiences that she brought in for her speeches? They were all rednecky and ill dressed WAL-MART shoppers................This education had to be horrible because they clapped when she spoke.......................Most educated people would throw their hands up in the air and say: "What in the hell did this woman just say?" Idiots support idiots.....”

“Christian wars have killed millions of people throughout history.....In the name of God has been used to deal out death continuously.....Fear, Hate, Racism, Bigotry and Devisiveness is preached continuously by certain Christian groups....It isn't the Bible talking or their JESUS....It is the hatred that spews from certain radio shows and MSM stations that creates the ignorant to follow.”

“A question for Arianna, Buchanan, Matthews, President Obama, and every single other person in the states. If a policeman grabs and shakes a person he/she has arrested, it is illegal.....If a policeman, FBI, DEA, slaps a person that they arrest, it is illegal. If any of these things happen in mainstream America, the person can be jailed and lose their jobs.
Then how can we, as a nation take war criminals and beat them, waterboard them, slap them, hang them up, abuse them and our police cannot? Is everyone dumb? Are you people in Washington just SLAP HAPPY? If it is illegal in these parts, how can it be legal for you?”

“Thank you, Veteran1964, for pointing out the real issue- Physical Abuse and our casual loss of humanity. Use any name you want, like Enhanced Techniques; it's just a way to put a sanitized face on torture and it gives license to all kinds brutality. The Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush, et al, torture scorecard is an abomination and is this the way in which we want the world to see us? A minute by minute, calorie by calorie, pain inflicted by the numbers nation?
As a Vietnam Veteran (1967-1968), I saw and heard about the horrific results of torture used to obtain "intelligence" (broken bones, men beaten dead, children raped, women starved, babies shot, cutting off of body parts, repeated drownings to name just a few really ugly methods). I can vouch for the fact that the ends do NOT justify the means. Torturing people does not produce reliable information, but it most certainly does help motivate your enemy to renewed, entrenched levels of attack such as the Tet Offensive. What was done by both sides (and is being done now) to POW's and civilians was/is barbaric, institutionalized, immoral, and illegal. We have laws against brutalizing animals for God's sake, but it's okay to turn a blind eye to what our government justifies as necessary practices to ensure our safety? There are other, more effective methods to obtain cooperation and information.”

POLL: 79% Of ASU Faculty Say Obama Should Receive Honorary Degree

“I agreee with you sbrown80 completely. I am a 63 year old White Male in the mountains of N.C. and a Veteran of Viet Nam. I am so pissed off at the racist overtones of America and especially the crowds at the Republican events that I wish that I had the money to go to every single one of them and slap a few hundred around every time. This is sickening and there is nothing I can do except type on this keyboard and talk about the Republican bias, racism, lies and deceit everyday. ASU and the rest need to wake up and smell the roses. We have an American President that is black and white combined....WAKE UP AMERICA...This President has more brains than the combination of ALL the Republicans in our country. WAKE UP AND SMELL THE ROSES. I would gladly give him any honorary degree for his accomplishments if I were in the position. He deserves all acalades.”

“90% of you gripers can't even define most of what you are talking about. It seems to me most of your Republicans need to go back to school and get a good education so you will know more about Microeconomics, Macroeconomics and basic ECONOMICS 101. Beatch and groan doesn't cure a nation of ills.....GOOD IDEAS INSTEAD OF SIGNS WORK. Show me one good idea that you Republicans have to cure the Health Care, the Social Security, the infrastructure, etc..........DUH...I doubt you can even write.....much less give suggestions instead of hatred.”

Name me one single aspect of our Constitution that you are being denied of......You can go out your door, crank up your car and go anywhere you want to go. You can go inside your home, have sex (if you can define it), eat a meal, watch television, talk to friends or enemies and even stand outside and protest that your taxes are too high. But don't come to a post and talk about how your rights are being taken away by this President. You need to look at George Bush did to take your damn rights away as a citizen and then make a comment about that. I am sickened by you dissenters that have no idea about economics, microeconomics and even macroeconomics. You listen to FAUX news and think these idiots have brains. Get and life and go back to work.”

Why don't all of these people acting out their hatred today take the money they are spending on TEA BAGS and SIGNS and GAS and other things and go help one of our wounded soldiers living under a bridge somewhere and either rent a motel for him/her or feed him/her. If these teabaggers are so damn patriotic, put their money where their mouth has been for so long.

IF THESE PEOPLE REALLY care they would take the money they are spending on the protests and the costs of all the tea bag parties and collect the damn money and go take care of a poor soldier living under a bridge with PTSD. Maybe they could buy him a meal or rent a motel for a week for him/her.....SINCE THEY ARE SUCH GREAT PATRIOTS.......I am sickened by these idiots.....They are uneducated and nothing but followers, not leaders.

“Ya know, I am guessing that a lot of them are following that old redneck tradition of hating the "feds" simply because of the aftermath of the South losing the Civil War. The hatred of the US federal government is fed them with their mother's milk, with a side dish of "God Bless America -- the white, fundementalis religious part of it only."
They think they love America. But they don't understand one iota of the real origins of this nation or how a true democracy works. They live in a bubble of religion, jingoism, xenophobia and hate.
And I am so sick of them running the show for so damn long.
I am more fired up against them NOW than during Dubya's long and illegal reign of terror. They tout the idea of democracy, but when it goes against 'em they ready to toss it all "into the harbor" like boxes of tea.
Insane. Wrong. Stupid. Selfish.”
