American Power Lies: Communist Party Backs Obama

American Power: Communist Party Backs Obama

In point of fact, CPUSA has not endorsed any candidates in the 2008 election cycle, though it seems one person affiliated with the party has. Sweeping generalization, anyone?)

CPUSA Online - CPUSA 2008 Electoral Policy: "While we do not endorse any particular candidates, we do endorse and join in the anti-Bush/anti-right wing sentiments that are driving so many people to activism."

Just another comment Nero deleted today... I don't know when he became such a coward.

American Power: Left-Wing Media Refuses to Identify Disgraced Democrat by Party

American Power: Left-Wing Media Refuses to Identify Disgraced Democrat by Party

Actually, Don, this kind of error is pretty common... (As I'm sure you already know, since you deleted the following comment about it...)
-------

I hope you'll write a post about all these errors, too... (As you implied HERE, according to you, one must address ALL such situations, or one risks being labeled a hypocrite by addressing only one. See: CodePink 4th of July Demo post, and 07.07.08 - 7:51 pm comment, assuming Don doesn't delete that, too)

Lieberman Must Go!

Thanks to AmericanNeoCon and various other right wing sites for pointing out what a good Republican Joe Lieberman is. Please let Mr. Lieberman finish the transition and live as the NeoCon he was born to be. Like Zell Miller before him, Joe no longer speaks to or for American Democrats... Let him go.

Joe Lieberman is a war hawk who staunchly supports Bush and McCain's War in Iraq. He wants to star in the RNC, yet he still holds a top rank within the Democratic Caucus. The Senate Democratic Steering Committee needs to know just how much of a conflict of interest this is.

"Reppy" sez:

If you followed the link from AmericanNeoCon's post "American Power: Revolutionary Communists for Obama" on his site, please go back & read the comments, and decide for yourself what his point was in writing the post, and then whether he's made his case, (or for that matter, whether the link you followed from there to here really had any point being in the post in the first place.)

Then, come on back & read to your heart's content. I have nothing to hide...

I've been here, in a fascinating discussion of marriage, civil union, religion, and the state. the Griper: Homosexual Marriage.

I'd welcome comment (there or here) on the subject, if anyone reading has any...

(Yeah, I let that nihilist comment Griper made at Nero's blog go... Everyone makes mistakes, and since he hasn't chosen to defend or address it in any way since, that's the story I'm goin' with... Bottom line is, I like the guy, even when I think he's wrong...)

NeoCon Truth (& love for one's fellow man)

The topic? This picture: code_pink_murder.jpg

The Comment: I don't care if the picture was photoshopped ... I believe that Code Pink wants out troops dead, which is why they "support the resistance" in Iraq, nihilist raghead fighters who are murdering Americans.

For some neocons, whether or not the picture or words actually reference objective truth is beside the point. Whether fact or fiction, some things just "feel right." Who cares that the image was photoshopped, and no one from Code Pink ever said or wrote those words... To Don, it's right to post such a picture and demand that folks repudiate Code Pink based on it because he believes that that organization wants American soldiers to die, regardless of what they actually say or do. Some might call this postmodern thinking, but I just call it propaganda...

1) Build the straw man. 2) Knock it down. 3) Claim victory. 4) Repeat as needed, even if only to stroke your own ego.

P.S. "Ragheads" is from W.E.B. Griffin, and perfectly legitmate for everyday use:

Barnes & Noble.com - Books: By Order of the President (Presidential Agent Series #1), by W. E. B. Griffin, Mass Market Paperback, Reprint

The day one looks to works of fiction to determine what is & isn't appropriate, legitimate language for polite, civil society is the day I stop talkin' altogether. (though I believe it is the persons doing so who might wish to rethink letting words fall from their lips, lest people actually hear them, and judge accordingly...)

I suggested that this particular neocon avoid perusing Huck Finn before going to his job as a Long Beach City College instructor, lest he get any more bright ideas about the legitimate everyday use of any other words commonly found in literature...
