Oh, the violent ideation of the lefties!

It's so hypocritical!

They need to restore sanity again.

Triangle Man said...: Where has Michael Clear criticized violent rhetoric on the right?

It's easy to imagine he is a hypocrite, but you need to show us both sides of the coin for the charge to be persuasive. Or, are you lumping everyone into a pile and saying that any two contradictory statements from people on the left constitute hypocrisy. Again, I can imagine that the same charge is made against the right, but how about closing the circuit for us?

You are so inscrutable sometimes!; 12/10/10, 10:16 AM
Unknown said...: Golly gee, how did we know those tolerant, gentle, peace-loving Lefties would show their appreciation of alternative opinion in such a civilized manner?

And wasn't she lecturing us all just a couple months ago about how she couldn't be responsible for what her commenters wrote. No, if they were anti-Semitic, racist, or wished others dead, that had nothing to do with her.; 12/10/10, 10:19 AM

However, when you troll comment sections for one anonymous comment, and then blame all lefties for that is dishonest.

And, no, you're not a victim. Sorry. But, yes, you are a dishonest egotist.; 12/10/10, 12:05 PM

Bullshit. There is no indication that post is sarcasm. You think calling lefties hypocritical is sarcasm?

You've been called on assigning collective guilt for one anonymous comment in some obscure blog to boost your victimhood.

You are engaging in a dishonest practice.; 12/10/10, 12:08 PM

OH BULLSHIT! Did Crack wish for her death or did Crack suggest she was behaving badly in her reaction to Elizabeth Edward's death? Big difference. But these lefties are merely applying her same lack of empathy towards her inevitable passing. If you can't be civil, then don't expect civility.
Ann said, that Elizabeth wasn't deserving of sympathy becuase only ONE son died, because her husband had a big cok and because she was wealthy. And to sympathize with others less fortunate. So why not apply the same standard to Ann? She has a devoted husband, seems quite succesful in her life. If she should die of cancer, well a lot of others less fortunate than her also die of cancer, and she can be a pretty divisive figure. So why waste pity on her?; 12/10/10, 12:15 PM

Calm down.

Here is the thread where crack said it:

Ann: If you're trying to fathom the twisted reasoning behind picketing Elizabeth Edwards' funeral (by the Westboro Baptist Church), the hateful text is here.

Crack: What are you talking about? We told you the company you were keeping. We even specifically mentioned those who picket funerals. Don't back away now. This is who you are.

[...]

This is Crack's standard, so it should apply to him. If he's going to group Ann with Westboro over her comments re EE, then Crack should likewise be grouped with violent leftits for his comments re Ann.

I hope your brain didn't just explode, JR. And I hope this post taught you how to properly cite what someone actually said, instead of the inaccurate paraphrasing tricks you pull.; 12/10/10, 12:26 PM

I don't believe that was what Ann said: that EE was not deserving of sympathy. OR at least that wasn't how I interpreted the comments.

To me it was more along the lines of: while EE is getting sympathy for her death, life etc, there are many others who have had more difficult lives, who are not public figures, who suffer in silence and who are perhaps more deserving of sympathy.; 12/10/10, 12:32 PM

Ankur said...: And the "leftists did it to Tea Partiers so now we can do it to them" game - did your parents never teach you that "BUT HE/SHE STARTED IT" is not a winning strategy in any situation?

Who started it is irrelevant. And improvable. What are you and I doing to STOP it? that is what matters.; 12/10/10, 12:57 PM
virgil xenophon said...: I demur, Ankur. While what you recommend is admirable in the abstract it rewards the left who always unhesitatingly savages the right with the worst sort of pejoratives and, when the right retaliates, the left and other assorted "good people" (with whom I assume you would associate yourself with) counsel "civility," "good-manners" and self-censorship.

I had a lot of trouble with that part of the discussion, because I believe we're all equally deserving of compassion. You might say that suffering is an equal opportunity employer.

The perception of who is better is, unfortunately, hard to be neutral about.

Again, the "who started it" path is a non starter. I am certain than for every example of leftist example you bring up, a left winger can bring up an even older incident - ad infinitum. None of that, however, stops the nastiness. If you think taking the higher road is too hard for you - that is your prerogative. You and I will continue to have a difference of opinion in that regard - and that is okay.; 12/10/10, 1:31 PM

I think you're misreading what Crack was saying. I think in fact he is referencing one of the thing I in fact said, or someone else said about Fred Phelps. I said We all know Fred Phels is an asshole for using the death of people to get his religious message out and who is completely disrespectful to people while their loved ones are being lowered in the ground. And I said don't be like Fred Phelps. Others may have similarly mentioned Phelps as well, in the context of using Edwards death to score cheap and insensitive political points and to bad mouth someone who just died of cancer.
And Crack, from what I'm reading is saying, you and ann are keeping company with Fred Phelps in your insensitive bad mouthing of Edwards after her death. This is not a call for Althouse's death. This is saying Althouse and Fen are acting like little Phelps.; 12/10/10, 1:44 PM

Hey Libtard, try looking at the top of this page where she says "its so hypocritical!". Get back to us when you figure it out.

the website you linked to wasn't being sarcastic at all

So? Are you saying that one can't make a sarcastic remark if our link doesn't go to a sarcastic site?

traditionalguy said...: The current crop of "Progressives" is cut off from traditional rules and enforcement mechanisms of the society they are seeking to destroy and replace with their "Will to Power"(like they thought of it first). So like any criminal enterprise that cannot seek help from a legal system that restrains violence and seeks a just outcome, they are left with murder threats as their enforcement mechanism of first and only choice. This is also the story of why law and order and lawyers are a blessing, even to Trooper York, bless his heart. I remember talking with drug dealers, and they said they never killed police or innocent citizens (except for contracts out on the Drug Sniffing Dog) but they had to use the believable threat of murder to enforce their deals with upstream and downstream drug suppliers. They could not sue in court...so the murdered instead to enforce Rights. Sounds like God Father like mafia rules. That is what today's Libs are trying for: a believable threat of murder to enforce what they say are their rights.; 12/10/10, 2:49 PM

except the angry leftist sound more like Phelps and althouse and Fen. So in fact the only thing that Crack is mad about is your reaction to Edwards death which he views as similar to that practiced by Phelps.
I don't see how his anger is really analagous to the leftits or to Phelp, but I can see how someone might feel the utter lack of empathy could fall into the same school as the lack of empathy on Phelp's part.; 12/10/10, 10:00 PM

Try this one, just for starters:

Crack at 9:26 PM: "None of you are worth a shit. You're mean, cruel, inhuman people and, I guess, it takes an enraged person with no family to let you know there's a benefit if it means I'll never be as callous to anyone as you guys can be to everyone. I spit on you and I spit on your graves."

Show me a quote where anyone said they would spit on Elizabeth's grave...; 12/10/10, 10:41 PM
