I've had about enough of this "Far Left" taurine feces.

[Mythsaje]

My response to the RWers who keep spouting this crap?

Get it right here.

"We're NOT communists, you dumbass. We're fucking populists. We're Main Street Americans. We just think YOU are a far right wackjob. That doesn't make us FAR LEFT. It makes us RATIONAL and OBSERVANT. Because you ARE a far right wackjob. You have perspective and proportion issues that make anything that comes out of your mouth sound like the ravings of a schizophrenic mass murderer who's just wacked off his penis with a butcher knife.

"Now--why don't you just shut the fuck up until you can get some medicine and therapy and come talk to us then."

Can you tell I'm sick of this crap?

[Rainscents]

2. I hear yea.

I feel the same.

3. In Amurikkka, it's o.k. to be right of the Nazis, but you'll be maligned and tarred if a tad left of

center. :crazy:

4. The GOP is a group psychosis with membership fees.

They go off their meds all the time. The last 6 years are a good example of this.

5. The vast majority of them don't know what "far left" (or even "far right", for that matter) means.

Most of them do not understand how the world works and only repeat what they have heard their idols say.

6. We're Americans. They're fascists. Case closed.

7. Me Thinks You Need To Come Out And Express Yourself ...

more clearly. It appears you have issues with being slandered and lied about by schizophrenic mass murderer who's just wacked off his penis with a butcher knife. Don't hold back Let your true feels out.

Bush Led. People Died. Media Cheered.

8. They had their chance and blew it.

9. OK, now tell um what you really think

Go ahead take the gloves off:rofl:

10. Wow--you'd get a K&R from me

for "taurine feces" alone. But you're right about this "far left" business--it's used to dismiss actual progressive arguments and the people who make them. They seem to think if they say, "Well, you're a knee-jerk pinko liberal," suddenly the issue goes away. The "l-word" and the claims of "radical hippy left" are just name-calling--not a mature dialog. The response from the left should be, well, "Come back when you have a point, and not a schoolyard taunt."

:evilgrin: But be prepared to wear your boots for the response.

11. That's what I have been thinking.

You said it! Exactly. We're just regular humans. Who feel pain when pinched.

12. Pinko Commie here

Well, that's what they call me.

I tell the conservatives that I am more liberal than them and I try hard to be a good example of what being liberal means: Aware and informed. Cautious of big government but respectful of its power. Equality for everyone.

Ya know, the same kind of libearlism that the founders had.

Kill them with kindness is my motto.

13. Frame yourselves

1. You were right on Iraq. Keep the focus there.

2. You were right on corruption. Make a list.

3. You were right on the economy. Tax cuts didn't help and working Americans are suffering.

That's what people voted on. Claim it. Stop screaming about impeachment and tell America you were right and get a grown up speaker out there who can back you up. Rachel Maddow was doing great today, and I think Stephanie Miller too. But nobody has laid out the specific case for why this really was a win for progressives.
