Listening to the words that the man speaks is "left-wing"?

Are you implying that your brain does not process anything you hear? Here's
a newsflash: how one perceives what he hears has everything to do with what
he believes has been said.

.... right-wingers think he's truthful.

Considering that he says himself that his fans are morons and that he
makes stuff up on the spot, that's a pretty stupid thing to think.

You've said this before. How about a reference. It sounds completely
illogical--his listener base would disappear overnight if he'd actually said
that, or worse if he says it repeatedly.

Your example of an aging, redneck senator is hardly any different. Most
people take Alec Baldwin more seriously than Jesse Helms.

When was Alec Baldwing the chairman of several Senate committees?

When was Jesse Helms a world-famous movie personality, starring in many
top-rated movies, appearing on TV talk shows? Visibility is everything in
politics. Take William Jefferson (please!)--did you know who he was prior
to all the media attention?

... But my point stands: there is easily as much hate-speak coming from
the left as from the right. You just fail to notice, thanks to your
bias.


Wrong again. Due to your bias, you accept the statements from the
right-wing that their hate speech is only "fair and balanced" by all the
hate speech from the left.

Heh, heh, not too fond of Fox News, are ya?

I bet you even use the phrase "liberal biased media."

Almost, but you're close.

And why would that be?? Could it be . . . let's see . . . that left-wing
talk shows fail miserably??


In other words, now you're admitting that your statement above is false...

Are you willing to admit that the left-wing does not represent mainstream
American values, therefore failing to have enough appeal to sustain its talk
shows and channels?

1- There is just as much hate speech from the left as from the right, so
therefor the right's hate speech is OK and the left's is terrible (even
though two wrongs don't make a right).

I've said repeatedly that I condemn both political poles. That would imply,
to any rational person, that I don't care for hate-speech no matter who is
talking. Why are you having so much trouble with that? It seems you simply
aren't happy unless I'm rabidly right-wing. Sorry to disappoint you.

2-There is not as much hate speech from the left because it's not as
profitable (maybe because it's not hateful enough).

The hate-speech comes from different venues, depending upon the politics.
Left-wing blogs and websites are far more numerous than their right-wing
equivalents. And right-wing talk shows (Rush, Mike Gallagher, Tony Snow
before he got his current job, and others outnumber the left-wing
varieties. And a lot of left-wing hate-speech emanates from the Hollywood
glitterazzi. In the final analysis, it's probably a wash.

This is one of the things I love about you right-wing nut cases. You can't
put together three sentences without blatantly contradicting yourselves.
It just goes to show that P.T. Barnum was not only correct, he should have
gone into politics.

That's what I love about you, Doug. You simply can't debate an issue,
rather you have to attack the debater, which is tantamount to an admission
of failure. No surprises there.

This is boring and you're a jerk.

Ciao.
