A History Of Violence: The Right Wing's Attacks On Freedom In America

According to a recent report by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), the doctrines of such groups are often fueled by a certain "anger over the changing demographics of the country, the soaring public debt, the troubled economy and an array of initiatives by President Barack Obama that have been branded 'socialist' or even 'fascist' by the heated rhetoric of his political opponents." <16><17> Another SPLC report notes that the number of U.S. militia groups like the Hutaree have increased three-fold since 2008 (from 42 in 2008 to 127 in 2009), and the number of sympathetic groups has doubled in the same two-year period. <16><18>

Got that?
If you claim Obama is a socialist you are contributing to the climate of RW hatred.
You can't deny it, I saw it on DU.
So then please explain this:

A Socialist Response to the State of the Union

And nary a peep of, "this would be a bad idea!"
So what they want is for Obama to be a socialist.
But socialism stokes hatred of Obama.
Hatred of Obama telepathically incites political violence in people who never visited Sarah Palin's website.
What is a bunny to think?

He does have a fantastic life insurance policy...who was sitting behind him and clapping off-cue last night.

SPLC--Mark Potok is about a dumb as a bag of ****ing hammers.

True, but also an attention whore of the first water, who has to make everything about him and his opportunistic lifetime employment gig organization.

Classic Star Trek:
"I always lie."
"I am lying right now."
Leftist heads esploadin!

The DUmpkies are confused. Or,...it could be that liberal double speak.
They say he's not a "socialist", but yet they love the "socialist-style" policies. And, if anyone says he's a socialist, they're promoting violence. What say you lurking DUmpkies?!

Leftism does not deal with truth because it holds no Truths apart from one's self. Morality is at best relative and subjective because there can never be a moral lawgiver apart from one's own being. Even those who profess a religious creed either accept such creeds as may be twisted to their own liking (New Age, neo-paganism, etc) or they resort to heresy to pick and choose which doctrines best suit them (Jesus was cool cuz he liked charity but adultery is OK and gays should be married).
With that in mind realize that they can claim socialism is an incitement and then embrace socialism because the former gives them power to silence critics and the latter gives them power to control the economic engine of a nation. Ergo, socialism is useful in both modes. There is no contradiction because both claims are useful for their intended purpose.
In the end, just like their religious creeds, the point is: THEIR power. They want what they want because they imagine themselves entitled to it and if you deny it you deny their self-rightous power. Consequently they will never allow morality to be a stumbling stone because they will snatch it up and throw it at you too quickly to trip on it themselves.

That says it all right there SGT. Well written.

You nailed Snuggles! They have always wanted it both ways. There is no other way to interpret it!

The basic necessity to be a liberal is to be able to believe mutually opposing ideals and never sense the contradiction.
Without that ability it falls apart.

But they do sense it.
It is all very sensible if power is the final objective.
They do not care if Obama is threatened any more than they cared if Giffords was shot. Giffords was the LAST object of their concern 3 weeks ago. What matters is they had a piercing ray of hope to silence those who made more sense than they do. They would have sodomized Giffords' dead corpse on live TV if they though wearing a Dick Cheney mask and "fake but accurate" narrative if they thought the act would gain them .001% more sympathy in the polls.

Oh lord Snuggles! That was gross! True, but gross!
What's hilarious isn't "fake but accurate" what they accuse Faux News of bein'? I mean they forever accuse FOX of lyin' but I have yet to see a single instance where they prove it!
Us on the other hand, point out with facts and links where their MSM pukes continually lie like dogs yet they swear we are the ones lackin' truth!

I rate the SPLC right under NAACP as for viability goes. The NAACP is as useless as tits on a bull.
