angry FL primitive unintentionally defines why the left is psychotic

Dear Governor Dean, we need to talk about what you said about the 70s "left" in our party.   

You joined many other Democrats through the years today in your interview on Morning Joe today....you joined them in speaking carelessly and offhandedly about the true nature of the Democratic "left" through the years.

Before I go into more details...I want to say that never ever at anytime should the "left" of the Democrats be compared with or spoken of in the same breath with the extremists on the right who are plaguing the Republican party.

Never.

What you said today on Morning Joe was this...about 1 minute 43 seconds into the video was this.

(Dean on Morning Joe Video)

You spoke of the problem the Republican Party has right now having to contend with the religious right and far right in their party who allow no opinions but theirs. In that part you were right.

You said they had to overcome that problem...and you added "just as we had to overcome the far left in the 70s."

Wrong.

There was never a time that the "left" in our party was anything like the bigoted ideologues who make up the "right" in their party.

Our "left" stood up against the Vietnam war in the era of which you speak. The Democrats ignored them, and now we have Iraq and Afghanistan, should I say the 2nd Iraq war. We were right in the 70s, Vietnam was an unnecessary war. So was Iraq, and Afghanistan can not be won militarily.

Our "left" has always been for the needy, the poor, the downtrodden. We have always supported the rights of women to make their own medical choices, we have supported the rights of gays. Some in the conservative wing of our party do not support these things.

They, the Conservadems, are the outliers of our party, not us on the left.

We on the "left" have stood up for health care reform, against unnecessary wars. We have stood for the unions and for the working man.

We on the "left" have fought against the strengthening control of the religious right on our government.

We are not at all like the religious right extremists. They preach contempt for gays, they think women are to be submissive to their husbands, bear children whether they want to or not. They are intolerant of the poor...they believe if you are poor you deserve it and if you are rich you deserve it.

They think they are superior, and they do not want the government helping those who have financial problems. Exceptions...when they get in finanial trouble. One of the "teabaggers" had some words with us about not appreciating Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. I asked him how he would feel not to have his disability pension. He said what was I talking about. I said Beck and Limbaugh consider that a government handout.

Governor Dean, you are in a position to have great influence on the direction of this party. It is pretty damn obvious that no matter what you say or do you will not be accepted by the powers that be. Period bottom line. You should consider not being fearful of aligning yourself more closely with "the left" of our party. We really are good people, sensible and caring.

It hurt me to hear you say that Accountability Now was too left for you. You could have great influence in continuing the change you brought to the party.

It hurt me to see you refer to the 70's "left". It showed you had been around the DC insiders too long.

And never ever compare the "left" in our party to the "right" on the Republican side. We are much kinder, more considerate, more caring than they will ever be. There is no comparison between the two groups.

You could be a great influence on the grassroots of the party, but you will have to stop saying things like that. You have been very much like the "left" of our party in many ways. Just drop the language of DC before it becomes too much a part of you.

It's been a while since I've seen one of these kooks describe in detail how they consider their Marxist viewpoint to be in line with middle America.  There's no other explanation but insanity to describe what one must be in order to truly believe this tripe.

Poor madfloridian...Dr. Dean has broken his widdle heart. 

Hey MF, why don't you go back to looking for all the dead bodies that
Jeb hid when hurricane Charlie hit.

There's so much dishonest crap in that post it almost isn't worth it....but:

Our "left" has always been for the needy, the poor, the downtrodden. We have always supported the rights of women to make their own medical choices, we have supported the rights of gays.

Ok then why, historically, traditionally, and statistically, has the conservative "right" always carried three-quarters of the private charity load?  Explain that, Oh Caring One.

Who isn't for women making their own "medical choices"?  I think you, you murdering bastard, are talking about supporting women who want to kill their babies.  Real noble, idiot.

I'll defend to my death each and every right that belongs to every American, including homosexuals.  What I won't abide is special "rights" for homosexuals which plan to make the abnormal normal (by force) and destroy the social order of our civilization.  No one has that right, you Ass Of Satan.

A whole shit load of many more letters:

"Robert Byrd:

DEMOCRAT Senator Robert Byrd was a Kleagle, a Klan recruiter, in his 20s and 30s.

West Virginia's Democratic Senator Robert Byrd was a recruiter for the Klan while in his 20s and 30s, rising to the title of Kleagle and Exalted Cyclops of his local chapter. After leaving the group, Byrd spoke in favor of the Klan during his early political career. Though he claimed to have left the organization in 1943, Byrd wrote a letter in 1946 to the group's Imperial Wizard stating “The Klan is needed today as never before, and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia.” Byrd defended the Klan in his 1958 U.S. Senate campaign when he was 41 years old.[9]

Despite being the only Senator to vote against both African American U.S. Supreme Court nominees, liberal Thurgood Marshall and conservative Clarence Thomas, and filibustering the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Byrd has since said joining the Klan was his “greatest mistake”. Today the NAACP at one time gave him a 100% rating on their issues.[10] Yet, Byrd has continued to be involved in racial controversies including a 2001 incident in which he repeatedly used the phrase “white ******s” on a national television broadcast."

I'm confused.  I must live in a universe far different from that alien world inhabited by the mad Seminole:

We are not at all like the religious right extremists. They preach contempt for gays, they think women are to be submissive to their husbands, bear children whether they want to or not. They are intolerant of the poor...they believe if you are poor you deserve it and if you are rich you deserve it.

I would hesitate to call myself "religious right extremist," but as the primitives paste that label on everybody they don't like, whether appropriate or not, I'll take the label.

Anyway, I don't recall ever learning any of that quoted stuff in church, or from God.

It would be nice if the mad Gator primitive would illuminate me as to who teaches that stuff.
