Those mean spirited liberals (again)

pecuniumI had a few things I forgot to put in the last one. These are all, pretty much of a piece, and they relate to the way the right gets away with the O'Reilly's, the Coulters, Savages, Brooks, Limbaughs, Hannities, Malkins etc..
When you call them on it, they will say this is the work of just a few people. On the flip-side they see a Ward Churchill, and they tar all-liberals with the brush of his silliness. More amazing, they will have the same people who are castigating the Churchills praising someone else who makes the same point (that the way we have been behaving was instigatory, and we ought to have expected such an attack as we got on That Tuesday)
Thomas Woods Follow the subsequent links and see all the outrage at what woods said. The arguments are the same. The only difference is the politics of the speaker.
More recently we have the Lefkow murders. It turns out the killer wasn't a right wing fanatic, but rather a man who seems to have been unhinged, and blames part of his present troubles on the ruling Lefkow made against him.
On the other hand, the right-wing noisebox has been more than vocal in saying things which are terroristic about it. Spouting that these killings, "may be a blessing in disguise. Our country is grappling with judges who do not understand that there is a war, and issues about "torture", rights for enemy combatants and etc, these new threats may wake them up because for the first time in these judges lives, they are vulnerable and threaten. Survival is no longer an academic thing. Make a dumb ruling that undermines the police and military ability to fight criminals and terrorists have personal consequences.

They know who the left wing judges, reporters and university professors are.
It is simply a matter of each individuals 'activist' choosing a suitable target and then taking action.

Ah, you say, these are just freaks at the fringes.
What then of this, by Hal Turner "With the federal judiciary in the spotlight over the Lefkow killings, it seems to me that much of the efforts of pro-whites to criticize Judge Lefkow were. . . . . . . misplaced. As such, I believe it is time to put the judges named above into the arena of public scrutiny.
Let them experience rousing public debate which they cannot control. Let them feel the pressure of public scorn which they cannot control. Let them see it and hear it at their courthouse, at their private homes, in their social circles and, of course, here on the internet.
Clearly the federal judiciary is not nearly as thick-skinned as they would have us believe. Given the Lefkow situation, federal judges are whining for more protection even though there is not one shred of evidence indicating the Lefkow killings are even related to the Judge's court docket!
In terms of public relations, - whether one is "for" or "against" - it is always best to "strike while the iron is hot." Given the media spectacle, public awareness, frayed nerves and serious concern over the Lefkow situation, the timing is perfect right now to stoke the fire of public opinion against these other Judges.
Needed immediately is: Home addresses of the aforementioned Judges. Background and Biographical info. Photos. Voting records, property ownership records. Info about any skeletons in their closets: alcoholism, drug use, homosexuality/lesbianism, race-mixed families . . . .You know, the whole nine yards. The full monty.(thanks to Orcinus for showing me this... he has a stronger stomach than I).
That looks like a threat to me. Was it some dark corner of the internet which hosted it? No, it was on Fox News, with Geraldo Rivera.
Ok, that's still a private enterprise.
But Rep. Gibbons of Nevada is a public figure, and a few weeks ago he said "I say we tell those liberal, tree-hugging, Birkenstock-wearing, hippie, tie-dyed liberals to go make their movies and their music and whine somewhere else," he told the crowd, according to the Elko Daily Free Press.
He then said it was "too damn bad we didn't buy them a ticket" to become human shields in Iraq.
His comments came a week after he apologized for calling those who oppose corporate donations for President Bush's inaugural parties "communists."
Thats a congressman. Bad enough, if he had said it all by himself, but he didn't. He stole it. It was plagiarised from a speech written by Alabama State Auditor Beth Chapman. I wish it stopped there, but the reason it's so easy to know who wrote this little gem of wit is that she was making enough money, travelling around and making that statement since Groundhog Day, 2003 that she felt the need to register a copyright on it. Yep, for two years another elected official has been travelling around saying liberal ought to be dead, no, that we ought to export them to someplace and kill them (think about it... the idea is we buy them a ticket to be human shields, and then we drop bombs on them) and she is being paid for it.
That speaks to a trend, one which is wide, and sadly deep, going back years.
So, when they whine about the Churchills, and the Jordans, use the Gibbons, and the Norquists, the Abramoffs, the Coulters, the Dobsons. Point out that these people are given not brickbats, but plaudits. They get the ear of the President, and the op-ed pages of the NYT, and the Wall Street Journal. They are given access to the living rooms of America. Who, were it not for the high-dudgeon they affected, would have known of the words of Ward Churchill?
Who can avoid the ranks of the Coulters, the Savages, the Limbaughs?

Date: 2005-03-12 02:36 am (UTC)They quite literaly have no shame. And that's why they win. Because no one wants to feel ashamed. No one wants to admit "hey, our side was wrong". And when the left does it, they use it against the left. It's a war to them, and they'll do what it takes to win.
