Just imagine the squawking we would've heard if Bush had appointed a man who went slasher on a table at a political dinner. Or did even one of the Godfather-esque things in that article. Sigh.
Posted by Sarah at November 7, 2008 09:15 PM | TrackBackSarah,I wish I understood why liberals are so in love with their fantasy that they alone are the arbiters of peace and unity. That somehow the national dialog will be raised and genteel discourse will be attained.
GIVE ME A BREAK.
They have not shown President Bush one iota of civility. It's been Chimpy this or McChokey that.
In my town the signs stolen were McCain/Palin,the cars keyed had GOP candidate bumperstickers. NOT
a thing was done to Kerry supporters in 2004 or
Obama supporters this time around. AMAZING to me
how intolerant of other people's views they are.
I could go on and on..but I won't. I know I am
preaching to the choir.
I just wish I could understand them. It's as if
their default mode is Toddler Throwing A Tantrum.
Yeah. I recently watched a video of Evan Sayet speaking at the Heritage Foundation about the "Modern Day Liberal" (look it up on YouTube: Heritage Foundation Evan Sayet). It's about 47 minutes long, but it's GOOD, and enlightening. I can't tell what's more frightening: What he's saying, or how he's saying it. Grave comedians tug at my heart strings.
Have you been back to my exciting comment thread? My liberal friend has recently accused me of being a prejudiced, dishonest, right-wing authoritarian ignoramus because I said I was going to vote Republican in 2012. Awesome.
I should copy and paste the whole thing into a blog post, but I think I'll just refer back to it later, with my own version of that insulting behavioral model . . . >:)

Comrade Emanuel has the boldness that is characteristic of a PeOple's Hero. We need persyns like him to stand up to the armed monsters that threaten to destroy the Newest Deal and deprive the prOletariat of an increased minimum wage.
MaryIndiana,
They have not shown President Bush one iota of civility.
What about your side's treatment of Our Black President? The Right mocks the One with names like "savior" and "messiah" ... references to the obsolete "opium of the people," in the words of First Comrade Karl. Conservatives cling to religion so tightly that they cannot conceive of insults beyond its constrictive framework. They fixate on former PeOple's Cleric Wright, even after he has been reclassified as "nonpersyn W" (not to be confused with The Enemy).
Posted by: kevin at November 8, 2008 07:01 PMThanks Kevin--you have illustrated my point
beautifully. Toddler Tantrum as default mode.
When you realize that his brother Ari Emanual is the inspiration behind Entourage's Ari Gold everything become quite clear. You know, I have to say that although I don't share his ideals, I really have to admire the guy's determination and doggedness to his ideals. Looks like Karl Rove has nothing on this guy...
