"We would have expected her to be the first one out of the box, not the last one out of the box with a health care plan" Elizabeth Edwards said. "And then for her to come up with one that looks like John's, it's almost as if she hasn't been willing to have the courage independently to be a leader on these things."
Edwards also said Clinton shouldn't raise money from people through a program that allowed donors to rub elbows with key members of Congress.
"You can have a meeting with a member of Congress if you donate to Hillary's campaign. What she's saying is she's willing to sell special access to the government. Just send a check," Edwards said.
So here’s the rule. You never repeat right wing talking points to attack your own, ever. You never enter that echo chamber as a participant. Ever. You never give them a hammer to beat the left with. Just. Don’t. Do. It. [...] We love you. We want to love you.
Knock it off.
Dissent among the left will not be tolerated.

Kos to Kosbots: You Trolls are Morons, MoronsUPDATE: The original diary by the barking moonbat "Maccabee" that started the commotion has been pulled. Too embarrassing, huh? What a joke.
ake, for example, one pseudonymous fellow at DailyKos who goes by “Maccabee.†He claimed to meet a Romanian cabbie who told him to leave Bush’s tyrannical America; he claimed to meet a Holocaust survivor who told him that Bush’s America resembles Nazi Germany; he claimed to meet another cabbie, Ugandan this time, who told him that Bush’s America is worse than Idi Amin’s Uganda; he claimed to have received a phone call from Balad, Iraq, revealing that the majority of the American Army’s mechanized strength is “out of commissionâ€; and today, he claimed to have received a telephone call from an American aircraft carrier on deployment, revealing that the United States Navy is about to attack Iran. Oh, and he also learned that the naval rank and file detest George W. Bush, too.
Nutroots Bust Well-Known Story WIDE OPEN With Not-So-New-Or-Shocking Revelations
The Nutroots try their hand at pwning the MSM, and come up a tad short.
A Kos kid tries to whip up a furor over "conflicts of interest" at Maine newspaper who had a well-known connection to Senator Susan Collins (shock! horror!), and conveniently leaves out the facts that everyone who's not a screeching moonbat has already known for at least a decade:
* The editor under fire has worked at the newspaper in question since 1971.
* His wife - who is about to retire in September - has worked for the Senator in question for ten years.
* Her involvement with the Senator was disclosed by two newspapers, including the one her husband works for, in 1998.
* The cousin of Collins's Democrat opponent for reelection in 2008 is the paper in question's political editor.
They remind me of noob Troofers who stomp onto the intertubes demanding answers, making wild accusations, repeating long-debunked crap ad nauseum, ignoring long-known facts, flinging flecks of spittle on everyone, and then patting themselves on the back while the world laughs at them.

CBS Allowing Hate Comments...
Using Greenwaldian/Sullivan methodology and logic, CBS has become a hate outlet for the most fringe lunatics on the Democrat left. Check out some of the comments they've allowed to stay on their site under this story (and I've got screenshots from when CBS deletes them and pretends they were never up there). Pay particular attention to the particularly vile commenter "seven-pesos":

Bushit is a craven coward, not just shown by his disgraceful behavior during the Vietnam war, which he ardently supported, but did everything he could to personally avoid, but during all his campaign stops and phony "town meetings" where he would have his thugs evict anyone from the meeting that even had on a T-shirt questioning the lies that the "Great Decider" had spouted. For example, in Oregon, three elementary school teachers were forced to leave a supposedly public gathering at the county fair grounds in Medford by Bushit thugs. And in Jacksonville, Oregon, Bushit had cops open fire on unarmed demonstrators with small explosives and tear gas because some dared to ask him questions when he wanted to go stuff his face in some local bistro.

No doubt Darth Cheney will impugne the courage of Puerto Ricans, while he excuses his own 5 deferments. Mitt Romney will question their patriotism as his own 5 sons avoid service. George Bushit will "decide" that Puerto Rico won''t get some of his tax breaks, as he dodges questions about the military service of his new son-in-law. Rush Limpdick will mock their accent, retired Marines who flew desks at Fort Ord will have bumper stickers calling for invasion of Puerto Rico "after we''re done with France," and American Legionnaires will enter into drunken rants fueled by cheap booze as to how the leetle brown spicanos don''t even spik EEngleesh.

Done masterfully by a Vet, no less. The leftikkks who stop on through are convinced (now) "it doesn't matter." Boy - they sure wrote a lot of hateful things and got themselves worked into quite a lather over something that "didn't matter." I'm sure that if any of Beauchamp's crap were actually true, it would've "mattered" a whole hell of a lot to these same "reality-based" morons.
How's that crow taste? Bo? B? John? Any of the other leftikkk mouthbreathers who spent lotsa pixels trying to defend the liar over here?
UPDATE: Unbelievable. A Kosbot retorts: "You're a f*ggot, Drudge." OK - that's not the direct quote.
Sorry. "Self-hating closeted homosexual and right wing propagandist blogger Matt Drudge." Read the comments for a torrent of homophobic hate. Gobsmackingly vile.
That's it, nutroots. The hate is swelling in you now. Strike him down and he will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
I support outing gay Republican hypocrites, but what is this? What does it do? After four years of seeing it - it ain't outing anymore. It just looks, to any eye first seeing it, homophobic.
I know you've probably heard this before. Just bugs me.
You don't say? That's because, Little butterfly, it is homophobia.
The Left Hates the Troops
News to you, I know. Some adept bloggers found a vile Kos diary entitled "KILLITARY" that was even more vitriolic than usual towards the military - so much so that the admins tried to shove it down the memory hole. Chalres is making sure that doesn't happen. I'll help him.

#1 "rusty is so busty". Comments are alot different than the post. I have been a target of greyrooster because of my comments about him. It is his right to attack me. The BIG difference is greyrooster is a patriot unlike you folks at the Daily Ko's. You are supporters of a terrorist organization namely Palistine thugs. The big thing you all don't understand is YOU will be the first to go not us if this comes to our shores. I guess you are just to naive to understand this. I shake my head in amazement how ill informed you all are. You remind me of an ostrich as you stick your head in the sand so as not to hear the truth. I pity you.

Jawa = "Zionist Internet Spies"
It's funny because its true. This idiot decides that the campaign against Hassan El-Najjar was because we at The Jawa Report are "Zionist Internet Spies":
They're numerous, they're zionist, and they're goal is to seek and shutdown all internet opposition. They're Zionist Internet Spies and they've struck again.
Emphasis in the original. Yes, indeed we have struck again! Now excuse us while we gather at a secret conclave and make matzah balls filled with the blood of Muslim children.........
But before we do, he offers this irony:
Neither Al-Najjar nor any other American should have to constantly declare their undivided allegiance to America in order to criticize that sh*tty little state called israel.
This is going to backfire badly on those little nazis.
Nazis. That's funny. But just to remind readers, neither I nor any one at The Jawa Report ever called for Al-Najjar to cease publishing al Jazeerah. What we called for was his firing from a state funded college. Which in the context of any other war would not be considered nearly harsh enough since sedition has always been a prosecutable offense under war time conditions.
And not because he didn't support Israel, but because 1) he openly supported terrorists 2) he openly supported jihadis in Iraq who are killing the men and women of the U.S. military. Now, he also was opposed to Israel, but that was not the basis of our opposition.
It's funny how those that oppose the existence of a secular Jewish state also tend to support terrorists and the killing of American soldiers....
1
Go back in memory to prior to the year 1989 when the Soviet Union went into Afghanistan didn't the US support the "Jihadis" or the "Mujahideen", as they called them back then, when they were fighting the Soviets to free their country? Does that make the US government "Terrorists", for abading and supporting terrorists? Or they free to twist and play with words whenever and however they please?

No the resistance we supported was what is now called the Northern Alliance. That is why we had connections when we invaded. Both groups fought the Soviets, but our support was directed to this guy. Not the taliban or Bin Laden.

Adam. The Mujahidee were engaging in war against Soviet forces in the traditional insurgency style. Terrorism, despite the medias complete ignorance, has a specific definition in political terms. The simple definition is intentionally targeting civilians so as to create terror to advance a political goal.

I was waiting for that shoe to drop and now it has. I wanted to believe that these leftist freaks would have more sense and good taste than that at least but I never really did.
Full disclosure: I am on anti-depressants for some time after going untreated for a long time. That being said I feel that anti-depressants need to be used with caution. Depression can have profound effects on mood, rational thought and other aspects of life but there can also be a significant danger when going off the drug suddenly. Patients need to recognize that if they go off due to cash shortage for a while there can be effects that are more sudden and more profound that the symptoms of depression alone. Also, not all meds work or even work the same way for all patients which is why monitoring and patient self-awareness must be emphatically encouraged.
Both serotonin and norepinephrine (re-uptake systems of which are the targets of modern anti-depression medications) are profoundly important neurotransmitters and the lack of them can provoke symptoms that are far more troubling than a case of the blues. Memory, concentration, motivation, reasoning, emotional evaluation, adaption to stress, sleeping and eating cycles and, in extreme instances, psychomotor effects can significantly reduce functionality. I also experienced peripheral visual anomalies but that could have been due to unnoticed eye muscle activity.
The fact that this guy went off late in a school year is far more indicative that his mentality was a result of his underlying mental illness, which is almost always aggravated by stress, than a result of a medication. Saying that anti-depressants are "known" to cause suicidal and violent thoughts is problematic because:
A) It is one of those "barely there" statistical findings the likes of which paranormal researchers are fond of. B) Studies saying something are not proof but evidence - often preliminary evidence. C) The people who are on the drugs are, nearly by definition, mentally ill (the drugs do not cure but allow normal function) Otherwise it would require giving the medication to people who do not have the condition for which the medication is being prescribed. That would be analogous to giving non diabetics shots of insulin and then commenting on the negative effects displayed.
There are also many common traits of these types of people, regardless of whether medications is taken. He will be found to be a loner who has problems socializing either due to an environment which stunted his social development or a psychopathic inability to feel empathy for people and deal with life.
But then it is easier for people with a political ax to grind against modern "Western" medicine or video games or guns to ignore little things like preexisting insanity when sizing up an event.

6"But Joseph, you haven't established that they have yet done that; you simply suggested that they will."
As much as it sickens me to actually defend a Kosist's statement, these video game and music arguments always follow these events. Always. Certain bipartisan elements in society seriously tried to blame Columbine on the fact that some of the criminals made their own DOOM video game levels. (This was the original DOOM and it was old back then.) Just as I knew their shoe (Bush did it) would drop, everyone on both sides of the political swamp is ready to make this tragedy into their own personal resource. He is just worried that the Conservatives will have the "good taste" to wait and use this in the culture war at a less inappropriate time in case he might miss the opportunity to say "told ya so". I would be astounded if activists from all interest groups were not desperately trying to find out his favorite music and political beliefs.

Imus is NOT a Conservative, Leftards
Just to nip this little whiff of lefty paint fumes before they waft beyond the fever swamps - Imus would likely take umbrage at the dubbing of him as "conservative."
Unless by "conservative," you mean a 2004 Kerry supporter who thinks the President and VP should be hanged.

It isn't surprising they would think he was a conservative. Looking at his ratings, it doesn't appear that very many people in the country listened to him. They have probably never heard his show and just jumped to that conclusion. He is rated, what, 20th in his timeslot?

Well I don't know whether Imus is a conservative or a liberal HOWEVER I do see that more conservatives seem to be defending him than liberals.

Don Imus is a claimed republican who votes for Kerry, calls the president a moron (not as bad as the word nappy) is against the war in Iraq. Believes in global warming. He's a fucking democrat for sure.
He has done some truly great things in helping kids with cancer. Which I think is far more important than calling a nappy head, a nappy head. Without the money he generated on his shows those kids with cancer will no longer have the experience Don Imus and his wife gave them. Black cry babies and the cowards who bow to them have done more than get Imus fired. They have denied hundreds of sick kids some happiness in their last few years. FOR ME I'M SICK OF BLACKS.

LOL. You just, once again, don't get it John. Conservatives aren't defending him...they are defending free speech while your side is, once again, attempting to quash it. These days only one side consistently attempts to quash free speech. From the "Fairness" doctrine to the countless attacks on conservative speakers at universities across this country the modern left is the Stalinist party of censorship and thought police. And just look...your proud of it. When I was a kid liberals where champions of free speech. Not any more.Very sad.

15 I do see that more conservatives seem to be defending him than liberals.
You really have to purposely be dense to miss the point here. John Ryan demonstrates nicely why liberals can't be trusted to protect free speech anymore. The second they object to something being said, they'll try to shut it down like the Communists tried to shut down Samizdata..
And yes, JR, free speech can be racist, vile and stupid. THAT'S THE ENTIRE POINT OF PROTECTING THE SPEECH - ITS NOT POPULAR SOMETIMES SO IT NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED FROM THE LIKES OF YOU.
The reason the Founding Fathers put that pesky little FA into the Constitution is to prevent totalitarians like you from using the government to quash it because your widdle feewings got hurt.
And no Democrat can revoke it. What a terrible country we live in.

Conservatives always take the oposite side of blacks. They just won't admit it. Academia has conditioned them to (ssshhhh it's bad to say that). Maybe the big black dude in class behind them has something to do with it. I mean attacking a white or brown isn't racist. Only the other way around. Three blacks kill a white race. State charges, if any. Three whites kill a black State and Federal charges plus 52 various civil rights charges amounting to 700 or so years. Grow the fuck up. Open you friggin eyes. What is, Is.

First Indepundit, then The Jawa Report, and today Rick Ellensberg Glenn Greenwald letting fly his latest windy, nothing-signifying sound and fury slime-piece regarding some perceived crime at LGF.

What is it with Leftards and their sock puppetry. Lying is ok in their book because, why, they're Liberals! The cause is just and morality is relative.
Gotcha, Sockpuppet!

It's pretty freekin sad when your argument & points are so weak that you yourself have such little faith in them, that you have to sock puppet your self. Maybe just maybe that would be a sign that if you have such little faith in your own thoughts you need not waste everyone elses time including your own posting them.

For the record, I am dissapointed with anyone who feels they have to resort to that sort of tactic on an open forum like this. I really am. It just makes communication of ideas more difficult. How do you think it serves truth, when you disrupt an open forum with sock puppetry? How can you even pretend you are interested in adult discussion when you do things like that? I treat others as well as I can, with the occassional rant, but I always let them know its me, even if I get a little angry. It's the decent way to act. It's right!

Let me see. Iran says that if it gets a nuke and can deliver it they will use it on Israel. Israel should not strike first. Yep! Makes sense to me. Does anyone understand that Iran is being run by madmen far whose than Hitler. For the last two years I have been waiting for Israel to take out Irans' nuclear facilities as they did in Iraq. Shit! They have a right to survive. Israel may have been a mistake. Hindsight is twenty twenty but should they all die because of it? The friggin muslims would kill every man, woman and child in Israel and dance in the streets as they did at 9/11. This isn't a game. If they take out Israel guess who is next? The civilized world has pussy footed to long already.

"Black man accused of raping a White woman at a frat party."
No shit. As soon as the media hid the race of the accused and accuser, I knew that was the case.
Where is the hue and outcry this time?
Utter silence. Why am I not surprised?
Gee, I wonder if the accused is guilty this time? More than 80% of rapists in this country are Black, so you do come up with the statistical probability.

It's racist to say black muggers in New York City. Problem is there are no white muggers. So if you say muggers who the hell are you talking about? Chinese? Japanese? Vietnamese? Puerto Ricans. Ah ha. I'll bet that at least 1% of the muggers in New York City are Puerto Ricans. Hmmmm. Must be black Puerto Ricans. Sounds racist.

The Other Shoe Drops
And the feminimrod twin of Amanda Marcotte has also quit the Edwards campaign.
To think that they were going to rev up and act like they supported and cared deeply for Edwards is a joke.
Watching them turn on him the second they were caught was a lesson that all Democrat politicians should learn: the nutroots don't care about substance. They will feign interest in a candidate if they think it will serve their narrow political interests, and not one step further unless their blogmasters (or dogma) dictate as such. Note bene.
UPDATE: You might want to read through the comments at Shakespeare's Sister for a laugh. They're acting like somebody died. Here's a good one (emphasis mine):
Well, it might get lost in the avalanche of comments, but I just wanted to express my support. I'm a regular reader, both Pandagon and Shakespeare's Sister are daily fixes for me, but I saw the actual blurb about your resignation on CNN tonight.
I screamed at the TV.
But in retrospect - Those that feel that these resignations are a "win" for their side are horribly wrong. If anything, this whole situation with yourself and Amanda has only strengthened my resolve. It has given me anger, and with anger comes great passion. I will try to use it wisely, but I might need a day to cool off.
I write a feminist column on a news site that I belong to. As of late, I have been tapering off, because I began to feel apathetic, that it was hopeless and a waste of time.
Following this whole situation has jerked me back into reality. My column will now be back up on a regular basis, and I will continue to fight the good fight. If I can have an impact that is even a minuscule fraction of what you and Amanda have done, I will have accomplished my goal.
Thank you for your blog.
For this young miss, with anger comes random and disjointed outbusrts at the television. Or passion. You know, whatever.
That, from this intrepid truth-shaman. Man - there's a whole world of talent we're just not seeing (apparently.)

That video was funny as hell, especially the song. Who says juvenile humor sucks? Telling someone to suck your dick because they disagree with you is always funny--especially when that somebody isn't even involved with what they're criticizing.
I especially liked the bit where a chorus of "Fuck you!" coincided with a poster of that crappy TV series, "Over There." I was beginning to think I was the only one who recognized that show as anti-war propaganda disguised as a war drama.
Posted by: Jeff Bargholz at February 14, 2007 04:38 PM (Dt3sl)
Amanda Marcotte posted on her personal blog, Pandagon, that the criticism "was creating a situation where I felt that every time I coughed, I was risking the Edwards campaign." Marcotte said she resigned from her position Monday, and that her resignation was accepted by the campaign.
[...]
"No matter what you think about the campaign, I signed on to be a supporter and a tireless employee for them, and if I can't do the job I was hired to do because Bill Donohue doesn't have anything better to do with his time than harass me, then I won't do it," Marcotte wrote Monday night.
By harassment, she merely meant being quoted accurately for the world outside of Pandagon readers to behold.
I also like how the article portrays her as "targeted." Marcotte painted a target on herself by posting years worth of her deranged and foul-mouthed lunacy (apparently caused by deep-seeded psychological problems) for anyone who wanted to read it.
That's like saying Marcotte crapped on somebody's rug, and then blamed the people who pointed out the pile of crap for pointing out the fact that she crapped on the rug.
Oh, well. Back to accusing the entirety of the free world of misogyny, rape and racism, I guess.
Marcotte Fired From Edwards Campaign...(UPDATED)
UPDATE: Predictably, the leftosphere misses the entire point (perhaps purposely, because they know they've been caught with their pants down and they really expected to get away with this little charade.) Some of them, like former Pandagon contributor Pam, appear to think this is all about the right's opposition to "pottymouths." Amusingly she links that arbiter of honesty, all-knowingness and sock puppetry Mr. Glenn Rick Ellensburg Greenwald to sum it all up for the despondent. Go read her link for a hearty guffaw. You can't make this stuff up - its so good that it writes itself.
This isn't about curse words. This was about holding this vile psycho to her own vulgar words, and then holding John Edwards to those words as well once he hired Marcotte and McEwan to positions as official spokesbloggers. Quoting Marcotte accurately is not "attacking" her - it reveals her.
Just as my disinclination to jump all over the Santa Cruz students speaks volumes about my agreement that they’re entitled to claim campus space for the students instead of the military, conservatives who white wash the Duke rape case are speaking volumes about what entitlements they are willing tolerate, in this case, white male entitlement to abuse women and get away with it, especially if they are of the wrong sex class or wrong skin color.
For those of you lefties keeping score, that means that Marcotte has convicted and handed down the sentences to the Duke players without a scrap of evidence (and more to the contrary.) That was the political liability that Camp Edwards was taking on. There's much more on Marcotte's disgraceful comments about the Duke incident here.
Anyone can swear, but we've shown clearly that this isn't about swearing. This is about personal responsibility for bigotry against selected "OK to criticize" groups like Catholics, men, conservatives, etc. If Marcotte (and her ilk) didn't want people to read the Pandagon garbage, she shouldn't have written and published it. Karma's a beeotch.
A parting thought from Jay Reding, who sums it up for the denseosphere:
Like it or not, Ms. Marcotte may have the right to free speech, and no one is arguing that she should be censored. However, what she says is incindiary, derogatory, and bigoted. Had she treated Islam the way she treats Catholicism, she’d be widely ostracized.

In all fairness to Marcotte she did give some shit to the Saudies in one of her post that I read. So to say that she would have been ostrasized for criticizing Islam is perhaps not 100% true.

Criticizing the Saudis is P.C. approved, because it's intended to portray the overthrow of Uncle Saddam as a tragic mistake. "Saddam didn't cause 911, Osama Bin Loser did. 15 of the highjackers came from Saudi Arabia."
As if the left would ever approve of American military action against Saudi Arabia or any other country or entity. It's just more left-wing misdirection and deceit--as I'm sure you know.

Jake is now asserting that AQ, the group that flew passenger airplanes on suicide missions into skyscrapers and government bulidings, wouldn't be caught dead trying to use a nuke anywhere, or that they would even want one at all.
And that pesky Iraq Liberation Act of 1998? The one that cites intel suggesting (with the international community) that WMDs were indeed in Iraq? The same that Hillary Clinton saw and used to vote for the war in Iraq?
That's just a "rumor."

Osama was right there with Hussein? Why is it that only lefties make this claim, while falsely attributing it to dem neocons? Could it be.....BDS induced serial lying?
The President takes his responsibility to protect America seriously. Like he's said ad naseum, he wasn't going to take a chance on Hussein built WMD ending up in the hands of terrorists.
You obviously don't care what the terrorists do to America, but most of us do. Executive power is in President Bush's hands for two more years, and there's not a damn thing you or the Dhimmiecrats can do about it.

ABC: Does John Edwards Condone Hate Speech?
Every once in a while, the truth slips through the filter. This time, its from Rick Moran's brother Terry blogging at ABC News:
What, if anything, does it tell us about Edwards that he's joined up with this blogger? Is Edwards' association with a person who has written these things a legitimate issue for voters, as they wonder--among other things--whom he might appoint to high office if he's elected? If a Republican candidate teamed up with a right-wing blogger who spewed this kind of venom, how would people react? Is the mere raising of this issue a kind of underhanded censorship, a way of ruling out of bounds some kinds of opinion? Are we all just going to have to get used to a more rough-and-tumble, profane, and even hate-filled public arena in the age of the blogosphere?
Its very simple, leftards. Here's a hypothetical: let's just imagine that Rudy Guliani hired Emporer Darth Misha I to run his campaign blog. What would the Marcotte apologists and defenders do?
Based on their behavior here, they would assert that he's a grown man entitled to type his opinions (however vitriolic and profanity-laced.)
P.S.Y.C.H.
Not that I have anything against Misha (he's hilarious), but you get the idea. Misha gets it:
We’re sure you’re all already aware of John Edwards (Edward? We keep getting the two confused. Both like to channel dead people for a fast buck, although one at least seems sincere when peddling his snake oil, whereas the other is known mainly for his obsession with his hair. We’re talking about the latter one) and his latest fuckup in hiring Pandagon’s Amanda Marcotte, one of the few females on the web with a mouth almost as potty as His Imperial Majesty. As a matter of fact, imagine me without the wit, humor and unbeatable charm (OK, I made that last one up), and you’ve pretty much nailed her. Figuratively speaking, of course.
The problem is - does the nutosphere get it now? Does Presidential hopeful John "Two Americas" Edwards? Even the NYT is (begrudgingly) picking up on this story, which the dextrosphere will be flogging from here to 2008.
The answer is obviously "not a chance." There's too much ego and "truthiness" at stake, and a whole avalanche of leftwingnut slandering of the Duke Lacrosse players left to do. The leftosphere is content to let this fact-denying, slanderous, unhinged nutjob speak for them and for their political candidates without remorse or question.
Fine. We'll play. The Internet has a loooong memory, unlike the media/Democrats.
UPDATE: Thanks to AllahP for the link. I loved this:
Marcotte’s been a punchline on Goldstein’s site for years; to see her suddenly materialize as lead blogger for a major presidential candidate is like the cat lady from the Simpsons being hired as White House press secretary.
If you look at Marcotte's Flickr site, there is strong evidence that she actually is the insane cat lady.

"Hate speech" is a leftwing term for opinions they disagree with. they don't like it when it is used against an anti-Catholic, anti-male bigot like Marcotte, because it accurately describes what she contributes to the internet.
Leftwingnut hate speech. Deal with it.
You've obviously never read the shemales at Pandagon. Nor do you care.
If you have such a problem with this site, why are you still here? There are plenty of blogs that subscribe to your particular brand of hatred (hatred of the self, hatred of country, hatred of the military, hatred of religion, of conservatives, etc).
Go read.

Spare me your disingenuous projection. Leftists are the world's leading hatemongers. Only the islamopithecines can match you misanthropes for sheer, xenophobic, hatred of the other.
