Chilling Message Sent Through the Left Will be Boon to the Violence-as-a-second-language Right |
|
Nineteen people shot at a Democratic Congress persons event as an ocean of verbal sewage has been filling up every low lying opening in the most feeble of minds across America. Since the day Australian propagandist Rupert Murdoch's Fox News and Clear Channel tentacles lit up, journalism began to go dark.
And there was 9/11, the perfect opportunity to bring the nations of the world together as the great America suffers an attack that many other countries know the pain of all too well. But, why bring people together? Where's the money in that? Compassion doesn't pay the stock dividends that fear and endless war does. Not when seizing control and exploiting resources is your goal.
Bill O'Rielly virtually calls for the murder of Dr. Tiller and he's killed-killed for performing a legal procedure, just one that the high horse right doesn't like. Violent rhetoric is flowing like blood in the streets of Baghdad after a liberating bombing by the angels of democracy and what will be the impact? If I were a betting man, I'd bet it will get worse.
This young man accomplished a great thing for right wing America. He did what so many of them are thinking. And the chilling message it sends through the Left will be a great boon to the gun loving, violence-as-a-second-language right. The Right that doesn't see Liberals as anything but Communists thanks to the fine work of the Murdoch media stooges and the flood of hate masquerading as "patriotism" on the network that's self declared as "Fair & Balanced".
It's a sad state in America, I really never expected to see this kind of a downturn. I thought we were making progress, slow moving, yet progress none the less. What's worse is I think this kind of viral fear is spreading to other countries, namely Great Britain. The financial collapse is the second 9/11 on a global scale. The perfect opportunity to destroy social democracies from the inside out.
What's really tragic as well is that the people responsible for creating this mess are far, far away from danger. They have no personal stake in the chaos and destruction of democracy they finance. In truth, TEA Baggers and other zealots are partially victims of the handiwork of these isolated billionaires. They are tools whose blood sweat and tears are worthless to their manipulators except to get their job done. Their job? Destroy democracy and elevate corporate power. To replace the informed will of the people with a manufactured product that is sold at a profit. China is making these wealthy scum bags very, very jealous.
What will happen when an assailant of any or no particular political affiliation manages a head shot at close range on the Republican Congress person of their choice. Will the right temper their accusations? Will the right blame the Left media voices for their hyperbolic fear mongering? For their open displays of fire arms and aggression? The tearful distraught fear mongering of who... Rachel Maddow, Keith Olberman? They don't even use chalk boards!
The right wins. Look at our government for the last ten to twenty years. The Left never really makes it. Even now as Barack Obama has his head shoved in the toilet by Republicans, Democrats race to make excuses for the abhorrent failure of the Democrats in Congress and our supposedly "Socialist" President. The American Experiment? I'll say!
Will we use democracy to save democracy? Can we?

8. Ahhhhhhh the ideal that a liberal knows how to point a gun let alone fire it |
|
isn't something the right fears nor do they feel that a liberal has the guts to murder a R congress critter. Remember, liberals are touchy huggy types not real he men like the wing nuts, the rights biggest fear is some liberal from PETA will throw red paint on their wifes $20,000 baby seal fur coat or that a liberal will talk them to death using words and facts.
That is why the tea bagging R's saying the AZ shooter was liberal is so outlandish, it doesn't fit into a conservatives beliefs about liberals. Bleeding hearts don't kill people why in fact they don't even want to kill people that murder women and children, instead they wan to give the murderers a good life in prison for life! The only time the few liberal acts of violence ever come out is when the right wants to slander someone running on the D ticket or to cover up facts like wing nuts have a history of violent acts.
Funny how they are able to talk out both sides of their necks without a thought about what they had said the last time.
