The Hate & Hypocrisy of the Left

Mark Steyn shares his thoughts.

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!!

Mark Steyn's Latest on on Gaza

Read it slowly. Read it carefully. But read it all. And then join with me and worry. For the excessive tolerance of our "progressive" politicians is so clearly leading to a time when no tolerance will be permitted whatsoever.

With apologies to Martin Niemöller, let me provide a modern version of his famous poem:

First they came for the Jews.
I remained silent, for I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the Christians.
I remained silent, for I was not a Christian.

When they came for the conservatives,
I remained silent, for I was not a conservative.

When they came for the atheists,
I remained silent, for I was no longer an atheist.

Then when they came for me,
I expected someone to speak out,
But there was no one left to defend me.

Anti-Jewish Hatred Flourishing Amongst Canada's "Progressives"

It has gotten so bad in the Liberal blogosphere that several prominent Canadian Liberal bloggers have realized that damage is now occurring to the Liberal Party brand. They are in full damage control, posting items such as these (click on the images to read) :


Make no mistake, I do feel sorry for the likes of fellows like Jason Cherniak and Jeff Jedras. But unfortunately they belong to a party that has more than a few Radical Left thugs within, some of whom will not be satisfied until Israel no longer exists. Do you realize how incredibly sick this is? It is pretty much on the same wavelength of the mentality of the Germans during World War 2.

The Conservatives once had a problem with Fundamentalist Christians "ruling the roost", so to speak. But Harper, to his credit, has greatly moderated the party. So will the Liberals, though if the volume of anti-Jewish comments is any barometer, then they have a LONG way to go. Fortunately for these spewers of hate, no conservative will give legitimacy to the Kangaroos Courts aka the "Human Rights" Commissions. The fact is, one Quebec blogger did, purely as a test, and discovered that hatred towards Jews and Christians is perfectly fine to the "progressive" thinkers behind the thrones of the HRCs.

Is this the Modern Canada that Pierre Trudeau had in mind?

Card Carrying Feminists vs. Reality

I just read this posting, which lead me to this one. The latter one is from a very unhappy woman who deeply believes she is a true feminist. She's extremely unhappy because the Canadian 'Best Feminist Blog' award didn't go her way. Here's a sampling (language warning) :

Within hours, sda received a slew of nominations from her tongue-lolling, crotch-scratching fans. Other rightwing female bloggers were nominated, albeit without the attendant frenzy of the admirers that sda commands who rushed the CBA site like so many grotty little boys comparing the length of their posts and the ejaculatory reach of their verbosity. All deleted now by a CBA moderator who had to dip her laptop in bleach after that little display of frothing fannitude for sda.

To this woman I just had to share my thoughts:

A Little Background . . . I'm one of those metrosexual guys who has always believed in and advocated for full equality for women and minorities throughout my life. Within my technology company I've hired people from around the world, including many women. Gender, race, skin colour, sexual preference - none of these things mattered one whit in terms of hiring or promotion. There was zero discrimination. In fact, women often have the more senior management roles and often the highest salaries! In my professional life there has never been a feminist agenda per say, but rather just a glorious meritocracy.

So for me the word "feminist" has always meant "equality for women", which is the original & proper meaning, is it not?

How naive I was to think that everyone still shared this definition. The recent U.S. election revealed a dirty little secret about card carrying feminists, didn't it? The infamous posting of the CBC's Heather Mallick showed a deep-seated HATRED (there's no other suitable word) toward Sarah Palin and women like her. And why? Because she's a strong proponent of the Pro-Life Movement and a Republican. Wow, what a horrible person!!

I actually don't share Palin's beliefs on abortion but do recognize them as being morally consistent. So while I don't agree with the 'no exceptions' views of Pro-Lifers, I do respect them.

It seems crystal clear that you and your like-minded readers have a long road to walk before you will ever understand that "feminism" simply doesn't equate to "pro-Abortion". The fact that you deeply believe that a feminist MUST be vociferously pro-Choice is a mystery I'll leave for Sherlock Holmes to unravel.

Another mystery is why you believe that feminists can ONLY have Radical Left political views? "Socialism is the only path to set us free, sisters" ? ! ?

The 3rd Requirement in the Trilogy for Card Carrying Feminists seems to be a certain degree of antipathy toward men, especially if they're Caucasian. If you think I'm exaggerating then you really need to hire a different polling firm.

So in summary, there are you you and your ilk who believe that Feminism means:

• Pro-Choice (anytime, anywhere)
• Radical Left political views
• A little or a lot of dislike towards men
  

Then there's the rest of us. Thank goodness there's the rest of us!

Until you realize how far off the rails your movement has veered, you will never be able to grasp why women like Sarah Palin, Kate McMillan, Michelle Malkin, Amy Alkon, Laura Ingraham, and Patricia Heaton are the TRUE feminists of the New Millennium.

The Tolerant Left

Watch the reaction to this march in New York City:

It could have taken place in Seattle, Washington or Portland, Oregon or San Francisco, California or Chicago, Illinois, the reaction would have been very similar.

This is proof positive of liberal hypocrisy and a deep denial of walking their own talk. "Open Mindedness" to a liberal means that they will agree with you only if your views are precisely in lockstep with their own. Welcome to the New America of 2009 - 2012, which historians may very well call the Obamanation Thugocracy.

Post-Modern Bigots

"I KNOW Sarah Palin, and so does my wife. Neither of us ever actually met the governor of Alaska, but we grew up with her - in the small-town America despised by the leftwing elite."

So begins a superb editorial by author, Ralph Peters. Here are some other choice quotes:

• The sneering elites and their mediacrat fellow travelers just don't get it: How on earth could anyone vote for someone who didn't attend an Ivy League school?
  
  
• The opinion-maker elites see Sarah Palin clearly every time they look up from another sneering article in The New Yorker: She's a country-bumpkin chumpette from a hick state with low latte availability. She's not one of them and never will be. That's the real disqualifier in this race.
  

• Now let me tell you what those postmodern bigots with their multiple vacation homes and their disappointing trust-fund kids don't see: Sarah Palin's one of us. She actually represents the American people.

Sandra Bernhard: Just Another Compassionate Liberal

Sandra Bernhard, the outspoken (and often unfunny) comedian has launched a new one-woman show called “Without You I’m Nothing”. Here's a snippet of a review of her performance in the Washington Examiner by a writer named Barbara Mackay:

In Sandra Bernhard’s new show, “Without You I’m Nothing” at Theater J, she kvetches continually, whether she’s sneering at vacuous celebrity-speak from a fashion magazine, mocking mediocre singers or voicing contempt for Sarah Palin.

But in the end, oddly and subtly, Bernhard’s message is positive.

Interesting, because Ms. Mackay fails to mention that this is part of her show:

Sandra warns Sarah Palin not to come into Manhattan lest she get gang-raped by some of Sandra’s big black brothers.

"Gang rape" is a positive message? Just hilarious what passes for humor in the minds of hate-filled liberals these days. Perhaps the biggest joke of all is that they keep on insisting that we refer to them as "progressives".

---

Update: Michelle Malkin has further details. Here in Canada we have "human rights" commissions that monitor supposed hate speech, though everyone knows that said speech must come from a so-called conservative or it's ignored. So Bernhard would be found innocent by their standards.

However, in this case it could be argued that she is inciting violence against a specific person, namely Sarah Palin. In such a case, she could be prosecuted in a real court under Canada's federal hate speech legislation. Ezra Levant is on vacation right now but it would be most interesting to get his opinion on this when he returns!

Multiple Gems of Wisdom from Dennis Prager

I'm a relative newcomer to Dennis Prager but the more I listen to him, the more I see the great wisdom of this man. Here are some audio clips from his show:

"We Support The Troops" - What A Big Lie!

These two stories from Toronto and Quebec City pull the thin veil off of the lie that the socialists in Canada support the Canadian troops in Afghanistan. The fact is, they HATE the members of the Canadian military.

Imporant Note: The political ancestors of these same folks were vehemently against fighting Hitler in World War 2. I wish I were exaggerating, but I'm not.

These people absolutely DISGUST me, yet they seem to be the majority in my hometown of Vancouver.
