The loony righties are freaking out about McCain and will not come out enmasse for him.

I see the same thing happening on the Democratic side - although for us it started a while ago.

DLC.

Times like these really make me long for having a parlimentary system. Instead of dividing “mass appeal” parties, force all of the smaller groups to work together in coalitions to gain a majority. Interesting things can happen when people have to work together to gain a majority.

I know that humor and satire are my strength, but I do not feel very humorous this morning.

When I saw the John McCain-is-a-whore article on Huffy, it all fell into place for me. Dissipate the meaning of things, water them down, make them fools and the world will never know we really mean the hatred we spew. I believe that the Obama underground is all planned, fully enabled by their messiah. This is sinister, well-oiled shit. They want us dead. You can almost feel their bristle. I am telling you if Obama doesn’t get the nomination, they will burn and loot and kill. Blood will run in the streets like it did in the 60s, which I remember well.. I believe Howard Dean lives in fear right at this very moment.
They will bulldoze their way through the streets of America until people will be too afraid to say ANYTHING. That Fear has already started. Are you not choosing your words for Fear of being called racist when you have no such intent? It is the 60s again. Only worse. They are using The Children. Nothing is more horrible than that. Only one horrible man in history was able to achieve this!

If they could kill us to keep from voting against Him, they would. Look at the faces on CNN. Look at Roland nearly swoon in cultlike rationalization of the inexcusable. Look at the pained look on Lewis’ face. He loves Hillary, he remembers what she has done for the poor and the blacks. But he Fears. You can feel it. You can see it in his face. Listen to what people are NOT saying and you learn so much. Should a mesmerized person turn the message and ask me exactly who “They” are, then I say, if you have to even ask

…and it goes on…….

I’m sorry to have to say this .. but do some of you people realize what you’re saying and how you’re saying it???

A good many of the posts here are filled with as much hate, condescention, and arrogance as as the virulent crap posted at WorldNewsNet, FreeRepublic, Newsmax, etc.

Randi talked trash. I don’t always agree with her - and on a few occasions she’s been flat-out wrong on her facts (still, >90% accuracy overall is pretty damn good). I think she owes some folks an apology for the school-yard namecalling. But that should have been the end of it.

Now we have dems calling other dems obamanots, nazis, facists, etc. Great lesson on how to steal defeat from the jaws of victory.

To EVERYONE who’s acting like a sand-kicking, lunch-money-stealing, shoolyard bully … GROW THE F*** UP. We have SERIOUS, LIFE-THREATENING, MONUMENTAL PROBLEMS going on in this country.

We can stew in this fecal soup and whine and cry at each other until McCain takes the election .. or we can focus our energy and sharpen our attacks at the real problems - and the people who caused them.

Anyone see Feith’s interview (CYA) on 60 minutes? The report in The Nation about Chalalabi and how our State Department funded the PR machine? What about real justice for what happened to Valerie and Joe?

That’s where the anger needs to be. Not at each other.

I’m getting more fed up with the whole US political landscape by the day. Both sides.

Well, contrary to your idea of “free speech”, nobody stiffled Randi Rhodes free speech. She spoke, got her mouth all out of whack, and others free speeched right back at her. Air America exercised their free speech, her critics exercised their free speech.

Free Speech does not give you Air Time. You have no idea what you are talking about when it comes to having air time and a radio show.

The Government cannot inhibit your freedom of political speech. A private entity can end its relationship with you over comments you make. Now if you want to retaliate against Air America, go right ahead. But running around calling Hillary Clinton names and her supporters Nazis you’ve really demonstrated the level of support Randi Rhodes can gather.
