This is a great piece put together by the Media Research Center. It details the hate that is spewed almost on a daily basis on the left. Most of it, under the deceptive tactic of, “Oh! I was just kidding!” or “I have the right to say this, First amendment!”
Highlights Include:
- Conservatives Want to Kill Barack Obama: “I really think there are conservative broadcasters in this country who would love to see Obama taken out.” (Ed Schultz)
- Conservatives Are Terrorists: “Do you not understand that the people you hold up as heroes bombed your goddamn country? Do you not understand that Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly are as complicit of the September 11, 2001 terror attack as any one of the dumbass 15 who came from Sauda Arabia?” (Mike Malloy)
- Conservatives Want You to Die: “If, in fact, the GOP doesn’t like any form of health care reform, what do we do with those 40 to 60 million uninsured?…When they show up in the emergency room, just shoot ‘em! Kill them!…Do we have enough body bags? I don’t know.” (Montel Williams)
- Conservative Congresswoman Would Have Liked the Holocaust: “[Representative Michele Bachmann is] a hatemonger. She’s the type of person that would have gladly rounded up the Jews in Germany and shipped them off to death camps….This is an evil bitch from Hell.” (Mike Malloy)
- Dick Cheney Eats Babies: “Cheney, by the way, looks very ruddy. I couldn’t get over that. Like, he must have feasted on a Jewish baby, or a Muslim baby. He must have sent his people out to get one and bring it back so he could drink its blood.” (Mike Malloy)
- Dick Cheney Should Die: “He is an enemy of the country, in my opinion. Dick Cheney is an enemy of the country….Lord, take him to the Promised Land, will you? See, I don’t even wish the guy goes to Hell, I just want to get him the hell out of here.” (Ed Schultz)
- Rush Limbaugh Should Die: “I’m waiting for the day when I pick up the newspaper or click on the Internet and find that he’s choked to death on his own throat fat, or a great big wad of saliva or something, whatever. Go away, Limbaugh, you make me sick.” (Mike Malloy)
- Michele Bachmann Should Die: “So, Michele, slit your wrist! Go ahead! I mean, you know, why not? I mean, if you want to — or, you know, do us all a better thing. Move that knife up about two feet. I mean, start right at the collarbone.” (Montel Williams)
A PDF Version is available here. I highly recommend this one, as the MRC has really done their homework here. I think it is time that we held accountable the liberal left with their vicious hate.
There is another more personal reason why I am posting this; and I will explain it. Back when I was still on the “Left of Center” position, which dates back to my pre-blogging days. I remember how much I hated the arrogance of the right, especially the far right. Yes, this did include Fox News and I am sure every other form of Conservative media as well. One of the main reasons why I even began blogging, was because the arrogance of the Bush Administration pissed me off. Anyhow, The left watch dog groups and Bloggers, including myself, at the time; were very busy pointing out this arrogance and other stuff.
Now, it seems that the left has been caught up in the same arrogance since the election of Barack Obama. However, when you begin to point that out; the best the left can do, is spin and deny that they have done anything wrong. Some of them, will even try to claim a moral excuse, something along the lines of, “Well, we’re right politically, so we can say all this stuff!” That idiotic excuse does not fly with this writer and former “Left of Center” Democratic Party voter. Because I feel that if you were going to point someone else’s dirty laundry, you should be prepared to deal with your own. Further more, the moral equivalency excuse of, “Well, they do it!” does not fly with me. Two wrongs, do not make a right; it just makes two very wrong people.
This report, I believe is a living example of what happens when the media goes into the tank for a Democratic Candidate for President of the United States.
