First of all, freerepublic.com isn't even a blog. Secondly, I've never heard of moonbattery.com. Seriously -- I am not making this up. Perhaps the reason I have never heard of it is that according to Sitemeter it gets a piddling 5,000 hits a day. Big whoop.

also for you to say many on the left root for the terrorists over the west. is unfounded, and absolutely the stupidest thing you have ever said.
If that's the stupidest thing I've ever said, then I'm a freaking genius.
Anyone who spends any amount of time reading Leftie blogs and websites will soon notice that many Lefties do indeed root for the terrorists. This is surely no new and startling revelation to you, KOtT, since I presume you as a Leftie read Leftie sites.

guy who isnt an american and has never been is sitting in the dominican republic.. owning and running a sweatshop... thinks he can make judgments like that about people in america
I don't need to be in America to read American political commentary. We actually do have internet access here in the Dominican Republic, you know. And I need hardly point out that "many on the left" does not equal "American Lefties". Nor does "the West" equal "America". Or maybe I do need to point it out.... for you.
As for making judgments from afar, you've never been to the Dominican Republic. Yet you judge I own and run a sweatshop. As it turns out, I don't own one, have never owned one, don't run one, and have never run one. Regular readers of this forum will not be astonished to see you once again batting .000.
Your rare visits to this forum are occasions of much genuine mirth and merriment to the regular denizens of the forum -- and mirth and merriment are often in short supply in these grim times. Accordingly, I will seize this opportunity to implore you to drop by more often.

As for Lefties being "in bed" with crazy islamic terrorists, it is patently obvious that many on the Left root for terrorists over the West. I don't know if it's fair to categorize that rooting as "being in bed with", but I'm unsure how many conservative blogs actually categorize the Left's relationship with terrorists in those words anyway.

Michael Savage calls Obama, Osama. He is the only one I have heard do this though, and he is pretty ridiculous most of the time so...
to those talking about Savage...trust me, i know he is a batshit crazy talk show host. i wasn't condoning what he said about Obama, i was just pointing out that he was a conservative person that I have heard say what KOTT was talking about. sorry for the confusion.

As both a Democrat and a Liberal I can honestly say I have never met or talked to a Democrat or Liberal who "Roots" for terrorists EVER. I have met people who have supported both financially and spiritually the blowing up of abortion clinics and hospitals who were Conservative and republican. I have never seen a group of liberals beat to death a person for being straight, but I have met people who have personally been attacked and/or had property been destroyed because they were atheist or gay.
I have heard on the radio and tv regular comments about the gay agenda and the culture war the "gays" were wageing on America.
I am sure people will bring up PETA or other groups which have done property or physical damage to counter my point, but I have never met one who has blown up something or met one who has been injured by one. Nor would I or the VAST majority of liberals even consider these people and organizations liberal, despite how their clearly misguided principals lead them to vote.
Furthermore, I regularly read daily kos and a variety of other blogs, and although many rant about the growing fascism that is spreading in the USA all of the main blogers are finding ways to win people back to reasonable government and sound policy; not destroying America.

i have personally seen some horrible things said and done on my college campus from both students AND professors towards religous student. and every case that i was witness to, they were completely unprovoked. i don't doubt your personal experiences whatsoever, but i am just writing this to show that it goes both ways, specially in reference to the topic of this thread.

I do not doubt that liberals and conservatives have had spats or that liberals have not done some pretty mean things. I know that we have suffered injury on both sides, but that does not make it right to continue to do these things.
As far as my experiences have been "conservative blogs have been very angry" Even during the six years that they were in control of our entire federal government they seemed to me as angry, and they continue to be so now, but now they have a little more reason to be up set.;)
In order to work together to make our country better we need to put aside the nonconstructive name calling, like osama, or Goldberg's "what does W stand for" and get on to real issues. ALIMO

Ouch so you caught me, I never said that i was infallible. In fairness King George makes a lot more sense than Osama Obama thing. I mean he said he was the decider, and that he wouldn't mind living in a dictatorship if he was the dictator, which does suggest that the title fits.
I guess my point was we should try to work one real issues rather than digging up minor past infractions or other trivial matters to discredit a dialogue.

fair enough. i wasn't trying to start shit, i said "king george" in more of a general way, not towards you. i just get tired of the double standard and libs/lefties always painting themselves as the victims.

Unless you have some proof of mainstream liberal blogs believing this, I'm going to have to call bullshit. Also, I'd like you to show that those blogs are representative of liberals in general if you are going to made such broad claims.

Sigh. Redstorm, I have pointed out here before on many occasions that "Lefties" is not equivalent to "Libbies". Of course there are liberals who don't root for the terrorists over the West. But there are undeniably Lefties who do.

Why is it so difficult (for me at least) to separate these two groups? I know that they are different, yet in my mind, they tend to be the same. One of those mistakes I catch myself making more often than I would care to admit.

Ok, whatever.

what's the difference?
leftie means liberals and socialists or what? Lefties can be for wealth redistribution in addition to liberal social policy/ law?
is that what you and phred mean?

This guy is a paragon of wit. He refers to the global warming "myth" as "global wormening" and to muslims as "mooselimbs," which is completely hilarious for all of the wrong reasons (see: not clever at all).

yeah just another example...conservative blogs are much less clever and waaay more angry than liberal ones. i guess that is because most creative people and good comedians are liberal. here is a line from the above blog "a liberal bleeding heart fuckstick to crawl out from under his rock so he could stroke his holier-than-thou, hyperinflated ego in public." maybe they are so angry because they are so uncreative and slow. shit look at their entertainment, nascar, church, country music and larry the cable guy. it all sucks ballsacks

Liberal is more an "down/up": liberal vs authoritative where "left/right" tends to be socialist vs conservative. I think. (Please correct me where I am wrong.)
