Attempted Double Play Of The Day

Okay, attempted double play of the day when it comes to pandering. One out and one on. Maybe Hillary was talking about only lowering the flag for ninety days, as that's when she wants the troops to begin to withdraw.

ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) -- Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that South Carolina should remove the Confederate flag from its Statehouse grounds, in part because the nation should unite under one banner while at war.

Baseball - still more American than Hillary Clinton.

Update: I notice the WaPo left flag bit out. And thinking about it, maybe Hillary wants SC to take down all current flags and just raise one that's white.

Yeah, right! Unite under a white banner.

[Legalize]

Uniting under one common banner is un-American? Jesus H. Christ this blog gets stupider every day. Oh, and the Confederacy lost. Get over it.

Newsflash for the rednecks. Dateline April 9, 1865 Appomattox Court House, Appomattox, VA; the traitorous southern inbreds, led by General Lee and under the banner of the failed Confederacy, surrendered unconditionally to their rightful masters. That stupid flag is just a sign of failure.

News Flash For the Rednecks: Bob/Carl/Artie couldn't get his flag up on this post.

[Rob Kaufman]

Breaking News: Phoenix is a lying sack of crap. Okay, I guess it isn't Reihlly breaking news since it is a given for a right wing loon.

[scarshapedstar]

Yeah, there's nothing more American than treason in defense of slavery.

[LOL]

um how does leaving iraq mean we're surrendering america to anyone? man, wingers just don't have the ability to think beyond the "surrendercrat" smear it seems. Too bad. You'll never convince voters to support that kind of idiocy in 2008

As a confederate flag-worshiping 'civil war buff' might say...

"Keep 'em in the dark, they'ah... happier that way."

Every single time I check this blog I'm astounded anew by its prodigious output of pure, unfiltered stupidity.

[Dan Riehl]

Every single time

Don't worry - it isn't nearly as bad when you aren't around.

[Oregonian]

And there's more of it!

Amazing.

[Phoenix]

Rob,

You hurt my feelings.

[Rob Kaufman]

I highly doubt I did hurt your feelings but if I did Phoenix I can only say,"So?"

[seekeronos]

What the heck does any of this have to do with a civil war fought nearly 150 years ago?

No, the only banner the Dhimmicretins and these "liberal" sockpuppets that infest this blog really want is the black banner of death, the banner of the conquering armies of the Caliphate flying over the burnt out hulk of the White Houase and the rest of DC...

...traitorous scum indeed, you disgusting liberal scum should be deported.

[LOL]

ah the authoritarian eliminationist rhetoric.

it's pretty obvious to see how much you value freedom and democracy in that post seekeronos.

[bloodrage bob]

always fun to see members of the party famous for shouting down dissent pretending to be outraged at authoritarian rhetoric.

or am i wrong and has social security been "voluntary" all these years? no? it's mandatory? go figure.

[Hard Right]

Now you've gone and done it Dan, you attacked the hive queen. The mindless drones are out in force displaying their illness.

Example:

um how does leaving iraq mean we're surrendering america to anyone?

LOL, if that's what you call thinking, you should quit while you're behind.

Proof positive that meth is a hell of a bad drug, kids. Just say "no".

This one seems right for the "Riehl" world

Meth? Never touched the stuff... which is probably more than I can say for the (hypocritical?) likes of you, "Legalize".

As for valuing freedom and democracy, I don't value it for anyone but Americans, and for the USA. I couldn't care less how any other country chooses to govern itself, unless it becomes a danger to the USA.

As for folks who would undermine America on the domestic front, one must really begin to question how much do they value thier American citizenship when they continually and fervently repudiate American values and seek only her defeat and humiliation under the Sword of Islam.

As I said, you caliphate lovers sound like you'd be happier bowing to some moon-god idol in Mecca than keeping our nation in a position to resist the angry advance of the Caliphatists.

Please, if you hate this country so much... please board the next flight to Kabul or Saudi Arabia. I'm sure they will be happy to have you.

[Rob Kaufman]

No thank you seek, I love this country and once we get rid of the right wing nutjobs it will be a much improved place to raise my family. Your ranting it just more of the usual right wing stupidity that is the reason Republicans were made the minority party once again.

[Legalize]

"Meth? Never touched the stuff... which is probably more than I can say for the (hypocritical?) likes of you, "Legalize"."

Hmm, then there must be some other culprit behind your paranoid ravings

"As for folks who would undermine America on the domestic front, one must really begin to question how much do they value thier American citizenship when they continually and fervently repudiate American values and seek only her defeat and humiliation under the Sword of Islam."

Staggering. How does one attempt to reason with such a paranoid and deluded vison? I'm not a religious person, but I do thank God that you hold on position of authority if you think that continually arguing for the very fundamentals that makes the U.S. what it is, is somehow subversive.

"As I said, you caliphate lovers sound like you'd be happier bowing to some moon-god idol in Mecca than keeping our nation in a position to resist the angry advance of the Caliphatists."

How many times can one use the word "caliphate" in one incoherent statement? Yes, professor, us secular capitalists are just dying to worship at the hand of another fanatical religious reime - I mean other than the one we currently have. If you HONESTLY think this way then it's clear that you are either insane or entirely retarded; if you're just spouting idiotic hyperbole for political purposes, you are just a dishonest hack.

"Please, if you hate this country so much... please board the next flight to Kabul or Saudi Arabia. I'm sure they will be happy to have you."

Nope. I love my country - enough to keep it out of the hands of fascist fanatics such as yourself - hopefully before your incompetence and arrogance cause irreperable harm to our society. Your Christofascist vision shares far more in common with radical Islam, than with "American values."

Seekeronos,

1. When someone uses the term Christofasist, you can be sure he has been hanging out at the gayly decorated bars. This is a word normally used by homos.
2. The vast majority of people who use that term do not really identify so much with the nation-state as they do with that wonderful organization at Turtle Bay.
3. And please, everyone get this correct. Liberals hate the very mention of the word "Caliphate", yet ally themselves with the very people who seek it. Go figure.
4. And Liberals are all for free speech, until and unless it offends one of the favored minorities of the liberals. Then it must be outlawed, Constitution be damned. Wouldn't want to hurt the liberals chances with the minorities.
5. Liberals say the US is a nation of laws, and are proud to announce it everywhere, until and unless it is a law they disagree with. Then it shouldn't be enforced, because it's a bad law, and we're no longer a nation of laws. Only laws liberals agree with should be enforced. Laws against illegal immigration fall into this category.

And I could go on and on, but my point has been made. And don't pay any attention to what the dopehead says, as his mindless rambles are indicative of the mushroom tea he has burned his brain up with. He is sad, really, I feel pity for him. He is a hate-filled, small-minded person. And he needs to leave home, get a real job, get off the computer all the time, get a GIRLFRIEND(not boyfriend), work out, go to church, volunteer at the homeless shelter, start a meet-and-greet program for our returning soldiers, and get a haircut......in that order.

xxx-fascist? How lovely to hear that suffix -fascist appended onto the end of any group we dislike? This is why I prefer to refer to the Muslims who can't refrain from exploding airliners into our buildings or blowing up innocent Israelis as "Caliphatists". That is what the want - a global Caliphate with unbelievers either dead or paying the Jizzya tax.

Preferably dead, of course.

To tar them with the brush of "fascism" would almost be a compliment. As for "fascism"... how the heck did you ever pass the bar (from your previous posts, I am gathering you are a lawyer... if I'm wrong, oh well...) if you do not even know how to correctly apply the term? Last time I checked, neither radical imams nor "Christian Reconstructionists" had much influence in thier respective governments to cajole the major business cartels into becoming government subsidiaries.

Or is that last bong hit still addling the few brain cells that you have left?

Except for the fact that you are more opposed to Christ than to Allah - in fact, you would prefer sucking it up and bowing to your Middle Eastern moon-god than sharing room in the land with those who would follow Christ.

Because the moment the Banner of Allah is hiked up the pole atop the White House, YOUR days are numbered... because there is no more room for the false "god" of "secular humanism" than there is for Christ in Allah's World.
