Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

I've heard a lot about the "extremists" and "nutcases" at the tea party protests. Can anyone show me a sign from one of the Obama protests that comes close to the signs in this link?

Anyone?

But there was a racist guy with a gun and Obama was across the street!

Obviously photo shopped just like the tea party crowd photos. Libs don't threaten anyone Joe. They are passive agressive. (tongue in check )

Joe,
The difference is that the correct outrage the right felt when these things were done seems to have ended the moment a Democrat was sworn in. Do convictions have a shelf life? Does truth expire? Do standards change with the flip of a coin?

Is it worse that the left is getting upset because the right is doing what they did, or is it worse that the right is now doing the very things they condemned? Or maybe it is the glaring hypocrisy coming from both sides that is blinding your vision...

"Can anyone show me a sign from one of the Obama protests that comes close to the signs in this link?"

Those were probably rtard pranksters pretending to be leftists. Remember "Communists for Kerry"?

You know what bugs Me is the fact that when We Liberals were protesting Dubya the right wingers had a collective Kaniption fit. They labeled us UnAmerican UnPatriotic what was it Tadowe said. We were scum sucking subversive traitors to America. But now the shoe is on the other foot they proclaim it's very patriotic to protest. Ohand another bitch I have is why didn't these same Right Wingers go to Washington and protest Dubya when they felt He was screwing them over. It's all a bunch of shit it really is. They remaied SILENT and didn't say a word. What utter rubbish.

Larry

"the right is now doing the very things they condemned"

Again, show me one sign from a "right" protest that looks like the signs shown here.

Or maybe it is the glaring hypocrisy coming from both sides that is blinding your vision...

Here's the difference-

Every political demonstration has its fringe crazies, but the current crazies on the right have become the core of the Republican Party (as demonstrated by the fact that no elected leaders in the Republican Party dare cross them), and are whipped up by people with nationally televised cable and radio contracts.

That's the difference.

Again, show me one sign from a "right" protest that looks like the signs shown here.


news.lavenderliberal.com

And once again, BetelG-

If both sides have "fringe crazies," then show me the "fringe crazies" who are making signs just as crazy as the ones posted in this thread. You cannot advance your argument past that stage until you demonstrate that the level of craziness is the same.

A good start. I believe that man was arrested. Keep em coming.

Some of us have moved beyond Bush as requested.

Why do the righties always bring Bush back up? He sucked and he is now gone.

MoveOn Joe. MoveOn.

Soooo Cindy Sheehan didn't represent the core of the dem party? How about Code Pink?

I'll absolutely agree with you on that. But now let's count the crazies.

Cindy Sheehan and her 12 followers

Glenn Beck and his.

Big fucking difference.

Soooo Cindy Sheehan didn't represent the core of the dem party? How about Code Pink?

#15 | Posted by crispee_oc

Absolutely not.

Glenn Beck, who has a national cable show on a "news" network, and more than anyone is responsible for the "9/12" demonstration has compared the Democratic push for health care reform to Nazi eugenics while weeping on the air about his disabled daughter, and how she would be killed under health care reform. He has also said that Obama has a "deep seated hatred for white people....or white culture...." and is "a racist".

On a cable show. National in scope. Now tell me which elected Republicans have called him on this shit? And tell me which national voice said any-fucking-thing like that about Bush and not only kept his fucking job, but was not even rebuked by Democratic leadership?


Seriously.


Did you really think they did?

Wow!!! No wonder you are so troubled.

Or unarmed people with signs that say "Death to" vs armed people showing up and thinking it.

Glenn Beck, Glenn Beck, Glenn Beck. I don't pay any more attention to him than you do to Cindy Sheehan. Next.

LOL. You are too fucking funny.

When did Cindy Sheehan or Code Pink get a fucking multi-million dollar gig on CNN, fucktard?

I recall a lot of people here supporting Sheehan at first and then wanting her to go away. IF she had the support that you thought, she would have been able to run against Peolsi and win I would think.

Glenn Beck, Glenn Beck, Glenn Beck. I don't pay any more attention to him than you do to Cindy Sheehan. Next.

Maybe you don't but 3.8 million of your friends listen to that uneducated idiot. How many books does he sell? Remember all the fun you all had when Cindy couldn't sell any?

Face it, the craziness on the Right is exponentially greater than on the left.

Take Cindy's crowd vs. Beck's crowd.

Take Right Wing Radio listeners vs. Left Wing.

I'm sorry to tell you that everyone has their crazies, but "conservatives" have embraced them and made them the face of the Republican Party.

Why don't you tell me? Like it fucking matters when Beck was with CNN and had no ratings? Dumb fuck doesn't even know what station Beck is on.

Cindy Sheehan is a good Beck comparison in some ways. Both got a sudden rise to fame with a popular message and both, in an attempt to keep the fame alive, became mockeries of that very stance.

Glenn Beck has a cable show on the "fair and balanced" network.

#24 | Posted by BetelG

Who is the dumbfuck?

"I'm sorry to tell you that everyone has their crazies, but "conservatives" have embraced them and made them the face of the Republican Party."

Beck has about 3.8 million. Rush has about 5 times that. Yet you ignorantly claim Beck is the face of the republican party? Laughable.

I am pretty sure he includes Limbaugh in the crazies that are the face of the party.

That would be the poster who misread post #22 and wrote #28.

Protesters against unnecessary wars that cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and cost hundreds of billions of dollars tend to say and do things that are reprehensible and now we know that protesters against health care reform do too.

re: Why don't you tell me? Like it fucking matters when Beck was with CNN and had no ratings? Dumb fuck doesn't even know what station Beck is on.

I'm aware of what cable "news" outlet Beck is currently on. I was using CNN as an example to illustrate how CNN (Clinton News Network, Commie News Network, or whatever you nuts like to call it now would not even consider giving Sheehan or Code Pink a show)

(You fucking moron)

Oh no, Rush falls into the same group of crazies.

So not only is Beck's group of crazies a shit ton larger than any wackjob group on the left, the Right has another group of crazies that is 5 times larger than Beck's in the dittoheads.

So that would mean that there are 10 times to amount of wackjobs on the right then left and that sounds just about right.

Is that really the point you were trying to make?

"Cindy Sheehan is a good Beck comparison in some ways. Both got a sudden rise to fame with a popular message and both, in an attempt to keep the fame alive, became mockeries of that very stance."

At least someone remembers Cindy being in the news everyday and coddled by the dems and every left wing group like Moveon.

That would be the poster who misread post #22 and wrote #28.

No it is still you man. You are the one that called someone a dumbfuck for not knowing what station Beck was on, 4 posts after that person said:

Hey, I am just pointing out the obvious.........

No you are rubbing it in. What part of post #33 did you not understand? If I wrote #22 and #28 then obviously I was pointing myself out. You know where it said MISREAD.

I don't watch or listen to either, so I could care less. You are the one putting Beck as the face of the Repubs. Not me.

Everyone else gets it man. I don't know why you didn't.

I guess you and manypaths have the same reading problem. #33 was a mia culpa. It's bad enough I had to admit my gaff. But now I have to explain it?

Of course I can understand why Betleg didn't get it, he has never apologized or pointed out any of his mistakes here. So of course he can't see one when presented. Twice no less.

#46...

Good, I am done admitting gaffs. lol

"Admitting" is a strong word when you obviously fucked up. It makes it sound as if you were proactive.lol.

Really got to go, though...

Difference is, Bush is a war criminal who arguably deserves the death penalty for lying the U.S. into a war in which tens of thousand of humans have died. At the very least, he should stand trial.

Good, I am done admitting gaffs. lol

#49 | Posted by crispee_oc

I guess I can hold the dumbfuck sign for a little bit.........

I always thought that two wrongs did not make a right.

Joe apparently believes that if one side commits a wrong that makes it okay for the other side to do the same.

Is that right Joe? Is "they did it first and/or worse" a serious defense now or is it still wrong either way?

I guess I can hold the dumbfuck sign for a little bit.........

You're a hell of a guy Many.

Super-impose the Beck and Limbaugh faces and you see the same face, the face of the Repub party. Neither frothing-at-the-mouth Faux lunatic is qualified to carry the panties of genuine American heroine Sheehan, whose efforts to end the gross Bush war live on. herm

health care reform / unnecessary war

hmmmm.

Sheehan - yeah, hero of the HERMENGELE party. If you could only get her to support infanticide she could be a saint in your eyes and not just a hero.

Neither frothing-at-the-mouth Faux lunatic is qualified to carry the panties of genuine American heroine Sheehan,

That image aside, I wondered how much the media really valued Sheehan's protests in the first place.

Considering that they don't give her any time whatsoever despite her attempts to protest Obama illustrates that she was nothing more than a freak sideshow that they can't sell any longer.

Too bad, I respected her for the position of being the true pacifist that she obviously is.

I guess hate is only a problem when it's aimed at someone you like.

At least Cindy Sheehan honoured Her Son's sacrifice by excersizing those rights that He fought for and died for supposedly.

Cindy Sheehan receieved all her attention on a lie Larry. The Media and left used her and her story as a lightening rod for the anti war crowd. As ususal they spit her out when finished.

Still doesn't take away from the fact that she is a whackjob.

If you think bitching and moaning from the sidelines is productive, you are mistaken. Just like Cindy then. Just like Tea Baggers now.

Neither did one iota of good. Neither changed a God Damn thing. They just look like idiots.

Shut Up and Vote and Shut Up again. That's the way it works. Your voice in a democracy is your vote. A private citizen has nothing more than that. Their vote.

Hey ManyPaths least She is willing to stand up no matter what shit gets thrown Her way. I'd rather have a nutbar as a Mother than some wimpy coward who is too afraid to speak out against Her Country's Leadership.

Larry

Larry,
The only reason she was put up on the dems pedestal, is because she complained about not being able to talk to Bush about her son who died. She did in fact speak with Bush along with other mothers and wives of disceased soldiers.

I see a lot of deflection in this thread to Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. Apparently lefties are incapable of the fact that the so-called "lunatics" of the right are a lot more respectful than the lunatics on the left.

of recognizing the fact.

Joe, GWB is a fucking war criminal who needs to be prosecuted. HOw can you compare criticism of a war criminal with partisan hatred of President Obama?

Respectful you say?

"GWB is a fucking war criminal who needs to be prosecuted. HOw can you compare criticism of a war criminal with partisan hatred of President Obama?"

What war crimes did Bush commit that Obama is not still committing? Please be specific.

Did you look at every picture in that link? You should! Disgusting.

Y'all make some salient points in the Sheehan/Beck comparison but completely fail on the "do unto others as you'd have them do unto you" test.

You need therapy.

You were angry during Bush, you're angry now.

If you can't be happy now, you'll NEVER be--YOU have the problem.

If you need external circumstances to line up for you to be happy, YOU need to change.


Anyone?

Nope. Well, other than one sign.

As usual, the lefties are spun like tops.

Kanrei went as far as reading the people's minds that were legally carrying guns.

The difference is that the correct outrage the right felt when these things were done seems to have ended the moment a Democrat was sworn in. Do convictions have a shelf life? Does truth expire? Do standards change with the flip of a coin?

#4 | Posted by kanrei at 2009-09-23 05


hitler references are silly and both sides should figure that out.,,and I officially condemn both sides for it....(bet THAT scared anyone who was thinking of doing it again dont you think?)

but again...if the left would just recognize that this is thier own medicine that they are so 'upset' about it might not be getting the reaction that it is from some corners.
ah but thats not in the makeup of the left since they SEE that their little party will not last much longer.

Interesting to see all the libbies deflecting ie. tacitly supporting calls for the death of the sitting president as long as he's got an 'R' after his name.

Cindy Sheehan, American heroine, lost a son in Bush's pointless war and devoted her life to trying to end it. Sad that Obama hasn'r listened, but Cindy deserves to have a statue of her erected.

Beck? Crawled out from under a rock - maybe out of a cesspool. Eeee-yew! herm

What a sad and pathetic joke the left has become (certain liberals notwithstanding).


Screw the craziness.

How about this:

The 'tea-bagger parties', the 'townhall astro-trufers' and the 'RACIST Obamacare dissenters' are being lambasted by the Obama PR machine aka the MSM.

Riddle me this...

Unless any of you can substantively argue that conservatives would be supportive of ANY of Obama's bullshit if only it were Kerry in office; your cries of 'racism' and all of your other crap ring amazingly hollow.

BTW Boyd,

Olbermann, Maddow, et al. have their own shows as well.


Joe's original point remains, despite your lame-ass attempts at deflection.

"Says the guy vwho called Obama Hussein during the Primaries. numerous times. Your words ring pathetically hollow to say the very least."

Good observation, Larry. Jeff made a point of pushing that "Hussein" bit to the limit. Now he's whining about his side being called racist.

Anyone who thinks the right wouldn't be equally up in arms over health care legislation if a white dem were in office should have their head examined. Some forget the partisanship and butt-hurtedness of the right and wrongly attribute too much of it to racism.

I notice that all of these pix were taken after Bush started an unnecessary war for dishonest reasons. And fucked it up miserably to boot. And after he sent innocent people secretly away to foreign lands to be tortured.
That all seems to me to be a pretty good reason to hate someone. All Obama so far has done is say that he wants to give health care to poor people. Hardly a comparable cause of hatred.
If you have any comparable photos taken early in his term, I'd like to see them.

I wasn't aware that referring to Obama by his given middle name was racist.

You guys are too funny.

It shows how desperate the left has become. Prominent Dems and prominent lefties are coming out of the woodwork to call opposition to Obama's policies of massive growth of government as racist.

It's a losing strategy.

You clowns are marginalizing yourselves.

Since wen is murder not a punishable by death offense! That is what all these marches wre about, anti-war, anti-murdering of American troops butI guess that doesn't matter. I mean obama has.....done a bailout!!!

And yes chairborn, carrying a sign is completely different than a loaded weapon, dipshit!


If you went out in public and had two guys walk up next to people one with a sign that says "George needs to get beheaded"....and the other guy is there with a gun and clips for them 99% of the people are going to call the gun toter the biggest threat/lunatic!
