I'm sure the majority of liberals aren't running around spray-painting crap in an attempt to frame up conservatives. People doing stuff like that are probably rare cases of brain-addled extremists who have been prodded into repugnant action by a constant stream of hate speech. Who knows? All I know is that such people deserve to be spit out the bottom orifice of society.

But something that I consider to be JUST as reprehensible is the blatant, obvious attempt by Democrat party members to paint the protests with the same 'extremist' brush as our hypothetical misguided kooks. The kooks are just frenzied, hyped-up goofballs who need to be pitied and shunned. But the Democrat party members... Nancy Pelosi, Claire McKaskell, Arlen Spectre, Ben Cardin, Brian Baird, Steny Hoyer, and many others - right up to Barak FREAKING Obama himself have blasted the protesters in terms that are insulting, demeaning, and dismissive. These aren't citizen kooks, random bloggers, or talking heads. These are people who hold political power describing thier own consitituents as if they were the enemy.

What kind of example is that? If they want to defuse the anger, shouldn't they be honest, open, and forthcoming and willing to engage the people?

When these bozos start getting all defensive, snippy, angry, and insulting to the people who are challenging them, it doesn't make me think that these are poor, innocent Democrats that are the victims of mean old mobs of extremists...

...It makes me think that the citizens are hitting these Democrats RIGHT between the eyes with truths that the Democrats want to hide so they can pass this bill before anyone can stop it. And it also makes me think that the Democrats are a bunch of slimeball hypocrites - because they sure didn't have ANY problems with 'community activism' during the Bush administration, or during Obama's campaign. But now the they are on the other end they want to act like citizen participation is a nasty, ugly thing that needs to be suppressed. Shame on them, and shame on anyone defending them.

WIthout condoning the use of such a symbol, here's another possibility...

Maybe this swatstika was painted by a neolib. The neolib left has long had a history of pulling stunts while disguised as their opposition. It frankly does not take any stretch of imagination to conclude that this was done by some goon of ACORN, DailyKos, or one of any number of left-wing whackjobs. After all, Nancy Pelosi was the one that planted this particular bug in the neolib left's ear when she falsely accused protesters of carrying swatstikas. The neolib left's war-room is in high gear, and it is obvious from their rhetoric that they are trying really hard to MAKE these protests look like the actions of just a few right-wing kooks, when the reality is that they are the wide-spread rebellion and dissatisfaction of the majority of the American people to a terrible plan and an alarmingly out-of-touch political class.

Regardless - any attempt to try and associate the single act of an extremist as the general attitude and opinion of a larger group is disingenous and smacks of desperation and propogandism. Whoever did this represents a tiny fraction of extremists. The bulk of the protesters are not represented by such senitments.

This looked like it was about to become a large political controversy, but it's sort of been swept under the rug. Allegedly, Harman was caught by an NSA wiretap telling Israeli spies who were also AIPAC officials that she would lobby the Justice Dept. to drop the case in exchange for AIPAC lobbying Nancy Pelosi to appoint Harman chair of the House Intelligence Committee once the Democrats won the House in 2006.

Hasselbeck joked that Nancy Pelosi should be subjected to "enhanced interrogation" for daring to question the pristine honor of the CIA.

Isn't that funny?

Aren't conservatives great?

I don't care so much about the abortion side of this. I DO care that little Barry has now opened the spigot for his liberal-whacko lobbyist groups to funnel billions of US taxpayer dollars to foreign organizations during a time when every penny of tax money should be staying home to solve our own issues.
But there - what else can we expect. Obama is an idiot. There isn't a single thing he's doing that doesn't run absolutely 100% counter to common sense. Economic turmoil? Hey - nationalize the banks and spend money on overseas abortions. Big 3 car companies teetering on the edge or ruin? Hey - let's slap them with a bunch of new fuel standards they can't possibly meet and force them to retool all thier factories! National economy on the brink? Hey - let's cap and trade coal and raise EVERYBODY'S fuel bills! And if the economy collapses? Hey - it was Bush's fault! Ex-Guantanamo terrorists showing up in Al-Queda videos? Hey - let's close Guantanamo and 'not say' what we're going to do with them.
It has only been 1 week and Obama has done just about everything wrong it was possible to do wrong. Combine him with the certifiably insane Nancy Pelosi and the doormat Harry Ried and America is royally screwed.

I'll reply in order;
1. i dunno about your banking system, someone else take care of this one
2. So because america is suffering at the moment (as is everywhere else), obama should allow them to pollute and produce polluting machinery without regard for standards? That'll do wonders for the earth, how will your economic recession seem when we ruin the planet for the human race? You'll be cursing obama on your deathbed for not sorting out pollution when he had a chance. That's not even considering how other countries will say "typical america, not conforming, not caring about the rest of the world (and itself)"
3. Cap and trade coal? Dunno what you mean here, i'm english so i need better setups. Although capping fuel-mining will not seem like a stupid idea in 20 years time when it's potentially one of the most rare and prized commodities on the planet.
4. Everybody's fault except the people who ultimately have to suffer
5. Guantanamo was an illegal prison, might as well call yourself terrorists if you're gonna hold innocent people against their will for years of their precious lives.


1. Asking others on LiberalSift to answer a question, eh? Well said.

2. Our policies should be governed by what other countries think. Well said.

3. You're English? I'm sorry.

4. You're right, terrorists should never be made to feel any pain of any kind. Well said.

5. I agree, we should become a police state like your country, and let only the criminals and terrorists have guns. Oh wait, with Obama, we're already on our way there. Well said.

"Nancy Pelosi: The Formative Years"

wow, Nancy Pelosi looks even worse without makeup

>> ^StukaFox:
make Speaker Pelosi President

Nancy Pelosi is a spineless drone who didn't have the guts to stand up against Bush and Cheney. Let's not do anything that might seem like a reward.

Nancy Pelosi has a caucus?

Are these fucking children we are dealing with here? It's like they have never heard the word FUCK before. I use it every day. It's a very useful word. And besides, right at the end there I could have sworn I heard Nancy Pelosy has a cock.

The American people have spoken, and, in overwhelming numbers, they’ve said they want change.

Very well.

Just so we all know, here’s a partial list of the changes we’re likely to get more of:

* High Taxes
* Gun Control
* State ownership of capital
* Constitutional reconstructionism through the courts
* Nanny government and oppressive regulation
* A weak, impotent military
* Inept foreign policy
* Trial lawyers and liberal judges
* Socialism
* Internationalist subservience to the United Nations
* Socialized medical care
* Stronger labor unions
* Racism (hiring- and college enrolment quotas)
* Class warfare
* Voter fraud
* Lax immigration controls
* Wealth redistributionism
* Hostility towards business, and capitalism in general
* Over-aggressive environmentalism
* Support for failed social programs
* Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Tom Daschle, Pat Leahy, Maxine Waters, Jim McDermott, John Kerry, Charles Schumer, Dianne Feinstein, and Dick Durbin running Congress.

So we’re going to get the changes we asked for, and we’re going to get them "good and hard".

Palin can't be any worse than Nancy Pelosi, who the taxocrats made 3rd in line for the Presidency after Bush/Cheney.
Dems are the ones scared sh-tless by Palin, as usual for all the wrong reasons. Their answer to her is to HIDE that semi-affable simpleton Biden, who better show up for the debate dressed as a mime.

First, you obviously haven't seen Palin's interviews. I don't know that there could've been a worse choice.

Second, I read/heard not that long ago that Biden's has given something like 10 times the number of interviews that Palin has since their nominations, so I don't know how you can say the Dems are hiding Biden. The only hiding going on is with Palin, and apparently for a damned good reason.

Christmas comes in just one more day, kids!!
