The Hate & Hypocrisy of the Left

Mark Steyn shares his thoughts.

More on the Letterman Debacle

Incidentally, I responded to this comment as follows:

UtahWoman, you wrote: "I do not see this as a left or right issue. I see it as a male vs female issue."

I agree with you that it's not a Left vs. Right issue. But it is NOT a Male vs. Female issue.

I've just spent quite a bit of time arguing with a woman from Saskatchewan named Janice who fully supports David Letterman and deeply criticizes anyone who considers it any more than a "joke". She went on to justify the smearing of any of the Palin daughters as somehow Palin's fault. I never understood her logic but it seems akin to blaming a woman for being raped. Finally, when I asked her how she would feel if the same sort of jokes were leveled at the Obama daughters she said, "they don't have anything to do with this."

That kind of limited thinking is not much different from Joy Behar's, as shown here. Listen to her words but also carefully watch her body language. Then listen to the list of all the women's groups and magazines that refuse to criticize Letterman in any way, shape or form.

A Canadian radio show host, Roy Green, asked a very interesting question today: "How come Don Imus lost his job over derogatory remarks he made about a women's basketball team yet not a thing has happened to David Letterman?" Answer that question and you'll get a sense of how rotten the core of the mainstream media has become.

I go back to Reagan's comment that I referred to earlier: "This is not a Left or Right issue, but an Up or Down one." More precisely, it's about those who believe in those archaic concepts known as "Honor" and "Decency" and those who don't.

Incidentally, a woman has created a Facebook group to demand a REAL apology from Letterman. Think about joining it.

Finally, please know that my outrage would be precisely the same had similar "jokes" been made about Malia or Natasha Obama.

Reverend Wright and the Holocaust Museum Shooting

This morning I came across this posting by Amy Alkon concerning Reverend Wright's latest outburst.

Isn't it interesting how during the 2008 Presidential election campaign, if anyone "dared" bring up the peculiarity of Barack Obama spending 20 years of his life in Reverend Wright's church, they were immediately labeled as "racists" and insensitive to Black issues in America.

How terribly convenient, eh?! Dare question Obama's close association with his hate mongering pastor and the entire discussion is immediately swept under the rug under the auspices of RACISM.

Now the latest chapter in Wright's demented life story has been written. It's absolutely no different from the chapters before yet there's no mea culpa from the Left, is there?!

In the comments section of the aforementioned story on Alkon's site was a comment by a woman named Lynne, referring to this editorial. It concerns the recent shooting at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC and the reaction to it.

To recap ... an absolutely demented old man enters the museum with a rifle and kills another human being. And the immediate response of the Left? Blame the "right-wingers"! Blame Rush Limbaugh! Blame Sean Hannity! Yet, never in my life have I EVER heard conservative talk show hosts utter a derogatory word about Jews. Not once. Yet on the Rabid Left blogs (HuffPo, DailyKos, CBC News, etc.) criticism and blame of the Jews is a regular staple in the diet needed to feed their craven sick hearts. It doesn't matter what the topic, the Jews are always blamed by a legion of hateful Leftists. Always!

If "Denial" could be bottled, these folks would be billionaires!

Turns out that the commenter Lynne, had parallel thoughts, which I just read after I wrote this.

Strange Encounter in Arkansas

The Underlying Violence of the Rabid Left

Imagine if a male journalist wrote an article advocating which women he'd like to rape. Do you think there'd be a large outcry from everyone, especially women's groups?

I'd certainly hope so. But apparently not if the women in question happen to be conservatives. Such is the case with Guy Cimbalo, who yesterday wrote that he'd like to "Hate F*ck" (ie. rape) the following women:

1. Amanda Carpenter
2. Dana Perino
3. Elisabeth Hasselbeck
4. Laura Ingraham
5. Mary Katharine Ham
6. Michelle Malkin
7. Megyn Kelly
8. Michelle Bachman
9. Pamela Geller
10. Peggy Noonan

Who would ever have thought that in the so-called progressive times we live in that mainstream writers would publicly say such things and that the outcry against them by mainstream women's groups was absolutely silent. Shame! Absolute & Utter Shame!!

The Goode Family

This is a new animated comedy on ABC. But be aware, it continuously mocks the totalitarian world that the environmental zealots want to drag us into.

But since such Rabid Leftists of the Environmental Cult have NO sense of humour, watch for it to be solidly panned. Here's an example.
