Evil Rears Its Ugly Head (A Just Response to DU)

"They may be policeing themselves but the poison needs to be aired in the national media now. Everyone should use their contacts to notify the meidia of the disgusting threads at DU. We should also take shots of it before it disappears."

3. This was the opening post in the thread...a cry for help to Rush...
"But for the sake of returning just reward to those who are dancing on the grave of Ronald Reagen, I am recommending that Rush Limbaugh, today, take a few minutes to read aloud some of the most disgusting posts at Democratic Underground on his show today. I am asking that he specifically credit DEMOCRATIC Underground, since this is their public posture. I can't think of anything that would better honor our deceased President that to expose the cockroaches who continue to fight him, even after his death... This is not about politicizing his death -- Democratic Underground has done that -- it's about showing the Gipper we honor is service and will not allow such disrespect to stand unanswered..."

"I must say DU'ers are more than whining, spoiled brats. DU is, in fact, the playground for evil. I have read many posts on that site that make me feel as though I am looking into the eyes of the devil. I am serious."

Edited on Tue Jun-08-04 12:33 AM by thebigidea


This coming from people who hoot at Ann Coulter's ravings, who took Newt Gingrich seriously - for a time, anyway.

This coming from people who regularly fantasize about annihilating entire countries...

Yeah, you guys are looking at evil alright. Cantcha smell it around you? Mmmmmmm.

Please take your hate elsewhere and reserve the better, more liberal posts for this board.

For someone who has 'Gore won florida' as their moniker, it amazes me that you would spend your time sticking up for freeps and castigating someone who can't stand them.

In real life, I contain my anti-freep words quite well. On this here anti-freep forum, I will let it all hang out, if that's what I want, and I don't need you looking over my shoulder. Thank you very much!

If there is a hell, RR is getting a warm reception right about NOW!

ever. Does that sound familiar? The freeper/repuke mantra during the Clinton years.

Nope, Reagan was a president but I surely will not claim him as mine!

reagan's administrations were AWFUL...people suffered, and people are suffering because of this man and the movement he fronted. it's the same movement that spawned bush, inc. there is no honor in pretending that "we" are so good as to pretend that wasn't (and isn't the case).

144. NOT PRETENDING ANYTHING
My argument is not about Reagan. I've said that repeatedly. My issue is the vitriolic behavior of liberals.

I find in reprehensible that people aginst the deth penalty utter words like "He deserved to die"

I am not being an apologist for Reagan. I am not arguing on behalf of reagan. I am arguing on behalf of the humanity I thaought was inherent in liberalism.

153. reagan didn't get the death penalty and he was 93 years old
he was a fascist fuck who conned a bunch of people to the detriment of liberalism...a pain we are still feeling some 20 years after his reign.
i understand your argument, i just think it's false. liberals are no "better" than anyone else. and reagan, the public persona, was an enemy of humanity.

92. That sentiment is honest outrage
Edited on Tue Jun-08-04 09:47 PM by RapidCreek
The battle should never end with one who is inherently evil, no matter what sort of happy plastic face is used to hide the putrescent brew which bubbles inside the skull upon which it is affixed. Those of you who give respect to the memory of the despicable...lend respectability to their despicable acts. The mask must be torn away...for now and always.

Reagan was a happily, evil, hateful, insensitive, treasonous, lying, murderous thug. Now he's a dead evil, hateful, insensitive, treasonous, lying, murderous, thug. I'll give him the same respect in death that I gave him in life...for even after he no longer breaths the air he helped pollute, drinks the water he helped make foul, walks the streets littered with the wrecked lives of the homeless and aids victims he created, or thinks of the 2 to 3 hundred thousand Central Americans he helped rape and murder....I am...and I will be for decades to come. Reagans illness and subsequent death, hardly erases the legacy of pain he worked so hard to manufacter and left the world to suffer....a suffering which will live on, long after he has rotted to dust.

I hate Ronald Reagan and I always will. My hate is not the same as the Reagans, Bush's, Coulter's, Limbaughs and Rumsfelds of the world, however. It is very, very different.

The hatred a man feels for the individuals who lynched his black brother, is not the same sort of hatred a man feels for individuals with black skin.

The hatred a man feels for the person who murders his family, is not the same sort of hatred the murderer feels for the family he murders.

The hatred a man feels for an individual who asserts AIDS is bestowed upon the ungodly, is not the same as the same sort of hatred a man feels for an individual because of his or her sexual preference.

The hatred a man feels for an individual who threw him out of a mental institution and onto the street, is not the same sort of hatred a man feels for the person who suffers mental illness.

And to drive the point home...

The hatred a woman feels for the man who raped her, is not the same sort of hatred a man feels for the woman he raped.

Hatred is not universal...it is tempered by the reasons one feels it and defined by the actions it inspires.

The right kind of hate is a healthy thing. Hatred of injustice, hatred of inequality and hatred of the sort of individual who advocates these things or tacitly accepts them through the disingenuous honoring of its perpetrators, is all that will narrow the scope of the very detrimental effects all four have on society.

Your civility toward an evil man is an exhibition of incivility to all those whome he so gleefully harmed. It gives that evil and it's bitter legacy the air of acceptibility and marginalizes the suffering, pain and misery of those both have effected, are effecting and will effect. I can think of nothing more uncivilized than that.

Away with you and your self serving, hollow, sanctimony....it is the fertilizer of the seed of evil and it has no place in our world.

P.S. My the above comes in handy....I'm just copying and pasting where ever it needs to do.

127. You cannot justify hate and call yourself a liberal
sorry.

whether or not the man did some awful things is not the issue. I believe his policies were morally bankrupt. I thought he did a lot to screw a lot of people. I think he gets credit for being better than he was.

I will not stoop to the levels of those I don't like. In doing so, I sacrifice a part of myself.

I want to make the world a better place, not find ways to hate the past.

Of all the ways to expend energy, seering hatred is probably in the bottom 10 of usefulness -- and makes us all look guilty by association.

Frankly I don't care if you what you do at this point. I saw waht I consider to be outrageous behavior, and I pointed it out. I'm not going to waste any more time debating the merits of hatred vs compassion.

If you want to hate, feel free to hate. Feel free to concentrate all of your free time on hating. I really don't care any more.

142. You are so very mistaken, Gore1fl
Where did I say anything about hate in my post #13?

I said the man deserevs no respect... you agree:
" I believe his policies were morally bankrupt. I thought he did a lot to screw a lot of people."

Then I said he is getting a warm reception. See, I was raised on the Bible. 'Course I don't go around beating people over the head with it, like RRwingers do. Except on the RRwingers. Beat them over the hed with the Bible that is.

Bub, you can take your self-righteous attitudes over to Freeperville. They need it more than DU'ers do. Why beat up on us, when the freeps need your educational Talibanisms worse than we do?

Oh, btw, I don't hate RR, but I do feel very sorry for him. However, I will reserve my greatest sympathies for those, as you say: "RR screwed over"

100. Divide and conquer!
Edited on Tue Jun-08-04 10:54 PM by MsMagnificent
It amazes me how we STILL let the Republicans push our buttons!

They KNOW we are the ones who truly have a conscience and they are using it, and HAVE used it for DECADES, against us although never quite as rabid until the days of this administration. (edit: additon of last 11 words)
This very day. This very board. This very moment.
...preaching to us how "Compassionless" we are in terms of Ronnie Reagan. Yet it is THEY and THEY ALONE who have devalued the word Compassion!

They use these tactics, this double standard, with impunity.
They use it with undisguised GLEE.
They use it full well KNOWING the game they are playing.

As much as I respect your freedom of speech, I highly but respectfully disagree with your sentiment. This IS the "Democratic Underground" right? To make an analogy, I hardly think the French Resistance debated (much ;) the moral rightness or wrongness of their fight against tyranny!

This is a forum for, or at least in part, the exchange of ideas and opinions. I beg: let your fellow DU'ers have their say in whatever way they wish to put it. Censorship is rife enough on this board without advocating yet more.

IMO we are FAR past the luxury of being Morally Better, of being Uplifted; even when we indeed are. Thousands have died for LIES. Our country & our PEOPLE, in company right along with the rest of the world, are raped merely for Profit$ and Big Busine$$ of the very few.

Our "leaders" in the White House are beyond corrupt.

The luxury of floating above their filthy sty is something we cannot afford at this time!

WE JUST CANNOT AFFORD IT

WE NEED TO TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK... NOW!


And if we have to use Fire to fight Fire... fine. I'm down with that.

Personally, I'll make my amends AFTER the election -- right NOW I'm on SURVIVAL MODE!
You want to stay above their level? Fine, by all means do so, that is your rightful perogative; but please allow me MY say. :)
My gloves are most definitely off & I'm going to be scratching and clawing for it all because, for me at least, it is just too important!!!
(And yes, I'm fully aware that's how *they* started, but I still know deep down I haven't lost my soul -- and therein lies ALL the difference.)

133. It doesn't...
...but there's more here than simply condemning a dead man.
MUCH more.

Like the studied manipulation by these psychopath Republicans to our own detriment.

I don't like Reagan at all, never did, IMO he's had Alzheimers WAY longer than "the last 10 years" as media is constantly putting it -- and obvious defense to people (like me ;) who'll contend his senility during his presidential years. Reagan lost me LONG ago with 'bloodbath... to end the protests on college campuses' and some months later-- Kent State; and "Freedom Fighters" for terrorists!
Yet I won't trash him now.
There's a latin saying that I've half forgotten over the years (if anyone can correct my Latin to what the grammatical meaning is PLEASE let me know -- I hate to quote misspelled Latin)

De mortuis nil nisi bonum.
Say nothing but good of the dead.


However, if anyone else chooses to do so, it's their perogative and I'm sure not gonna tell them what they can or cannot say.

My opinion.

I said If we get pissed off at the Freepers Dissing Wellstone but then do the same to Reagan, we are hypocrites.

If we say we aren't as bad as the Freepers, or if we say the Reagan stuff is justified, then we are just as bad as the people who argues that it is OK to torture prisoners, because they do it to.

sorry if i wasn't clear.

Rest assured I know what my logic is. whether or not i was able to communicate it well is another issue.

Wellstone is not Reagan....not even close. For you to make such a comparison is quite revealing. Wellstone is as much like Reagan as Jesus was like the money changers....and that's the point.

If you have problems understanding the concept check out post 92 in this thread.

I also understand that our prisoner abuse wasn't as bad as Saddam's abuse. The relativity does not excuse it. Being not as bad is not an acceptable excuse for intolerance.

130. "Wasn't as bad " has nothing to do with it
What the hell has torture to do with calling a lying, cheating, treasonous, murderous thug, a lying, cheating, treasonous, murderous thug? Nothing at all.

Wellstone was not a lying, cheating, treasonous, murderous thug. Reagan was. One cannot therefore correctly label Wellstone as such...one can however point out the fact that Reagan was one.

I don't tolerate lying, cheating, treason committing, murderous thuggery. Nor should any human being. Frankly there is no excuse TO tolerate it. The longer it is tolerated the longer it shall exist.

It is ludicrous to equate justifiable moral outrage over demonstrably evil behavior with snide character assassination of an honest man.

Should a woman who is raped tolerate her rapist? Using your logic the answer would be yes because being not as bad is not an acceptable excuse for intolerance.

I won't go on because I feel my patience slipping. You've obviously mistaken your attempt to cloud a point by equating it with something totally unrelated, as clever....it is not. What it is is pathetically transparent. Take your little bag of fallacy games to someone dumb enough to fall for them.

Ok Let me state it plainly.

We, as liberals, have both better angels, and higher priorities than cursing a dead president who served over 15 years ago.

I don't like seeing liberals use the tools that we have condemned others for using.

The "were not as bad as" or the "but this is justified" arguments are beneath what I believe liberlism to be. Perhaps I just have higher standards.

147. We have no higher priority than to pull the mask of acceptability
Edited on Thu Jun-10-04 03:58 AM by RapidCreek
from that which is totally and completely unacceptable. Fascists misrepresenting themselves are perhaps the most dangerous and currently the most pervasive threat our democracy faces. Those who facilitate that misrepresentation are the second most dangerous. Particularly when they describe that facilitation as high standards.

I've not made the "we're not as bad as" argument...because describing the fascist and his actions plainly and accurately is not bad. It is the duty of anyone who values the Democracy they live in.

Further I have not suggested that the use of the tools of fascism are justified. Fascists use deception, deceit, misdirection and fallacy to shit on their fellow human beings. Those who value Democracy use honesty and in so doing, make the world a better place....and they use it no matter how uncomfortable it might make them feel. Honesty sometimes requires us to step outside the boundaries of our traditional comfort zones...it requires us to recognize when we are standing neck deep in a world of shit.....and to do something more about the problem than bleating "Don't make waves" to the folks standing at our sides....Especially when the likes of Tail Gunner Ronny and his legacy incarnate, the boy king George are circling back around in a power boat named The Happy Fascist, bare asses hanging over the side.

You keep your decorum and drown in their shit....I think I'll address the source of the shit...and I'll start by pointing at those doing the shitting and calling them what they are. I'll make it plain that I know what they are doing, that I won't stand for it and I'll do everything in my limited power to stop it.

Have you ever heard this before? DON'T TREAD ON ME. I'm guessing you have not.

148. Yeah, but I prefer to fight live people
the person/Admin pushing the policies currently are the one's we need to tell "Don't tread on me"

Telling it to a dead former president probably won't do much good.

Your goals are fine. Your point is fine. It is all mis-directed.

I argue you are NOT addressing their shit, because you have become side-tracked with Reagan and have lost sight of the current problems.

151. It is not misdirected....it is spot on.
It is not the people alone which need to be fought...it is the mindset of those people as well. The mindset one creates in life and the effects it has on society as a whole live on long after they have passed. Whether they are deemed good or bad. Culture is after all, a compilation of the mindsets of those who have preceded us. Those mindsets cumulative effect on our culture is derived by societies collective reasoning concerning the goodness or badness of those respective mindsets.... whether they are detrimental or beneficial to societies continued healthy existence. If, after Hitler died we marginalized the suffering and misery he caused by heaping praise on the life he lead...we would be signaling to those who follow him our approval of his methods. In shunning Hitler ....and everything he stood for, during his life and forever after...society makes clear that his methods were not acceptable. It makes clear that anyone who is tempted to walk the same path will meet with similar disapproval.

We constantly hear of the greatness of Reagan's legacy, even from our Democratic leaders. It has been jammed down our throats in great heaping spoonfuls, all week long. His legacy is great, no doubt...but it is greatly evil...and that is not the message our leaders are sending. Quite the contrary, in fact.

In singing praises to Reagan they are signing praises to Bush....and all the Bush's who will most assuredly follow in the "great and wonderful" Reagan's footsteps. In singing praises to Reagan they invalidate their own message. If, as they claim, Reagan was a great and wonderful man, does it not stand to reason that his legacy incarnate is a great and wonderful man as well? Of course it does. So we the public are left with the impression that the Democrats who sing his praises are not bound by any moral compass and are just playing a silly little power game....that they will say and do whatever is most pleasing to the listener at any particular time if it garners them praise, no matter how fleeting or hollow that praise most certainly is.

These are not qualities of true leaders. They are the qualities of those who lack fortitude and conviction.

68. The "local" fascit Bible
thumper who does a regional show in my area did this very thing yesterday. I meant to post about it, but forgot.
He read some post about someone pissing on Reagan's grave or something.
Of course, he called Al Gore, "Sore-Loserman," and quoted some inane thing about Clinton from The Drudge Report.
Considering that Drudge is a load of gossip, I guess this local Bible thumper was taking a day off from the 10 Commandments, specifically, "Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor."

It's not only a funny, rib-ticklin' JOKE, it's also very sly and ribald political comedy, the kind that awaits every visitor to the Free Republic Web Site. They're not only the master race...they're the masters of the "oops...you GOT me" pun!

Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

Edited on Tue Jun-08-04 12:38 AM by thebigidea
What amuses me most about the FR type is that after all that yammering about Clinton/Reno trying to create a police state or somesuch, they meekly bend over and accept the initial stages of a police state when its proferred by their vile puppetmasters... without a word of complaint...

Notice how quickly the Bob Barr-types who occasionally whispered about civil liberties were escorted out of the building.

Some "Free Republic"

As long as they get a tax cut, all that bullshit talk about freedom ends up being just that: bullshit.

Enjoys your freedom, kids.

136. The thing is...
...that the VAST majority of these people will receive very little to nothing in the way of Tax Cuts. The tax package is merely to succor big business with a *tiny* bit going to SOME.

Like that check for a couple hundred they sent out in the beginning of his tenure... what a huge laugh! twas a PITTANCE!

Supposedly now more puny checks are in the mail -- for parents of children. Seems that the childfree individuals and couples who pay MEGA tax to support OTHERS children deserve nothing.

It's just all part of their big, nasty, untruthful game.

It's a waste of time and energy to go over to DU.

However DOES have the (low?) class of not crying like a little girl about it.

33. Here's the truth about Free Republic, FReepers
I saved a little thread on FR from a few months ago. I'm sure that everyone here will find it as amusing as the FReepers that posted to it. Hopefully, the media types (I'm looking right at you, Boortz, and you too, Limbaugh,) would have the courage to broadcast this as well.

By the way, the contents of this thread (and the link to it,) were forwarded to a local right wing wacko radio host who insisted yesterday that the Republicans "never, ever" would post anything of the sort online. It seems he hasn't had the courage to even dignify my comments with a response.

Here we go, boys and girls! Have fun!

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1036492/posts

A nice excerpt from the above thread:

>To: Grampa Dave
I can't come to Oregon for a FReep, but feel free to make up a sign using my name and vow. "I will travel to the eventual gravesite of Jimmy Carter in order to p!ss upon it. May God have mercy on my soul, and get to him before I do, in the eternal afterlife. Else I will spend eternity making sure that hell does its job correctly!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Great one Dave!!

42. A freeper speaks out on the scathing political wit of Grampa Dave
...at least I think they're reacting to your reprint of Grampa Dave's witty, insightful, "take-no-prisoners" rant. Grampa is the only post I see here that's "taking joy in another person's suffering and death," so it MUST be him. Here we go:

"That anyone could be so hateful and angry that they would take joy in another person's suffering and death just because they didn't agree about politics, that's punishment itself, isn't it? These can't be happy people."

seems to me putting our name out there is only gonna make us bigger and stronger.
anyone with any sort of 'common' sense should know no-one on this board speaks for democrats or liberals, only themselves. i think the freepers are to used to everyone being sheep in their own party and think we are the same ;)

63. No, which supports
the point made here time and again. No matter what we do, no matter what we say -- nice or nasty, polite or hostile, civil or uncivil -- they will lie, distort and demonize. I, for one, refuse to play nice so here goes:

Their most recent presidents have all been deceitful liars and dim-witted SOBs who got where they did through white boys' affirmative action (connections)and whose policies are destroying everything good and decent that America -- at least in theory and as expressed in the preamble to the Constitution and the opening lines of the Declaration of Independence -- ever stood for.

May they all rot in hell!

57. Hey, someone refers to the many "cat" threads we have at DU!
This was posted in response to someone complaining about getting banned from DU, on another DU Fan Site for you to enjoy: "IMAO: The Universal Democratic Underground Thread"

http://www.imao.us/archives/001215.html

Posted by: helmeuth on February 24, 2004 01:26 PM

"The DU fanatics are just pussies who's entire world collapses when someone so much as tells them that they might want to back up some point they made with hard evidence. I've checked out Protestwarrior.com a little, and even people of the hardliner Marxist Left aren't censored there, even though most people there are Conservative or Libertarian. It's now quite obvious just who the Facists are."

AND THEN..."Mob_Triggerman" has what can only be described as an "allergic reaction" to the left-wing tomfoolery found on the DU boards:

Posted by: Mob_Triggerman on February 26, 2004 01:47 AM

"The Democrat Underground is one of the worst places on the web. Just to view a few posts is to step into the darkest realm of Stalinism and Marxism imaginable. These are people that should not be in the USA as some of their posts are very anti-capitalism, anti-America, and virtually treasonous, such as hoping the US loses the Iraq war just to make Bush look bad. On right-wing message boards, the enviroment is quite different. They do accept liberals on the boards, however be expected to put up a fight and debate. The DU can't handle anyone having a different opinion let alone squash their conspiracy theories (Read the 9/11 thread at http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=125&topic_id=2443#2444 )
Scary stuff, right?"

If my entire career was based on hate speech, I don't see how in the world I could make any criticisms, with any authority at ALL, about anyone engaging in negativity.

PERIOD.

The same goes for FR. If you could weigh on a scale the hatred at both DU and FR, I guaran-damn-tee you their side of the scale would be so damn heavy our side would NEVER move down a bit.

They laugh & cheer among themselves about "putting Liberals in Concentration Camps"... they (virtually &/or physically) jump up and down pleading: "Please, please, can we kill them now?"
Them = Democrats; in this instance.

Truly revolting.

Perhaps WE need to notify the media of THOSE examples!

I took it upon myself to write the advertisers of those weblogs with some of that data, how many times they advocated Genocide.
To this date they have all withdrawn their ads on those sites.

Seems most of the psychopaths in this country aren't in prison -- they're in the Republican party!

If Al Quida is as nimble and capable, now, as the pundits would have us believe........they surely would not be able to miss this event.
If these guys have ANY real capability on the eastern seaboard, they'll show.

And the world will be transformed, once again, by the Gipper.

Think 9-11 was a big deal? If they do any harm here it will be the sure destruction of every Arab state that ever even thought of supporting terrorists.

Yet, I fear that's their eventual goal. MOST of those countries have chilled.....while maintaining contacts and capabilities. Still, it's predominatly secular rule now and binny&co. can't stand it. They'd like to have us do the hard work for them.........and, that we will.

It would be like a bunch of thugs robbing and cutting the throat of our grandfather who was out for a Sunday stroll.....each of ours individually. And I think these bastards are rotten enuff to take a shot if they can.

121. It's absolutely pathetic that the strongest liberal messages these
people can find are on a fucking internet message board.

Surely, if the media were so liberal, if the country were under siege by liberals, there'd be all sorts of commnetary for the Limbaughs of the world to point at.

But he actually takes time to read an internet message board. THAT'S the liberal voice.

What the fuck are they angry about? The stooges have handed the media to corporate America, all three branches of government are being defiled by corrupt Republicans every day, and the Democratic politicians are a bunch of milquetoast Alan Colmes clones.

Freepers, if your biggest liberal target is a message board, then perhaps the country's ills aren't being caused by liberals.

123. Shows how bored they are with
"breaking news" 24/7, of the untimely death at 93, of Royal Reagan.
Tear down this wall.....enough already.
The USSR was broke, like we're headed.
The soviet kids wanted a music revolution, to buy records, listen to all the great music we had, and no one took down the soviets better than the Beatles. Not a couple of old farts like Reagan/Bush. The next generations wanted no part of this Cold War illusion, that took away any hope for the future. Gorby knew it.

As for the Liberal Media....

They did less coverage of all the Kennedy's (JFK, Robert, Jackie, JFK Jr.)untimely deaths and Princess Diana's wedding and funeral combined. In addition to their charisma, were THE MOST photographed people ever.

137. Yesterday on the news RFK was mentioned...
June 5, 1968...RFK's death and Reagan's apparently inspired some comparisons in the media.

Last night, Alan Colmes estimated that "over 80,000" had shown up at the Reagan library to pay their respects.

On June 8, 1968 (from an MSNBC source earlier yesterday) "hundreds of thousands lined the tracks" to say goodbye to RFK as the TRAIN transporting his body passed by. That's respect. Standing for hours waiting for the ten seconds in which you can salute a frigging TRAIN.

That train's been gone for 36 years, but the man who was on it has not been forgotten.

140. One freeper's theory: "being born black" is "a neutral physical reality"

Homosexual Agenda Ping - This should be shouted from the mountain tops!

Every fence sitter should know how devoted Kerry is to the "gay" rights crowd!

Kerry is "Out" and he's Proud! Yup, just like Clinton was the first "black" president, Kerry can be the first "Gay" president!

I apolgize to any black people here, I'm just quoting their stoopidity! I don't equate being born black - a neutral physical reality - with the choice of practicing sodomy! Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

149. Are you Freeps going to come get me? Over my cold dead body.
I'm not your weak knee, sniveling, wussy, turn the other cheek liberal. I'll be up your nostrils quicker than you can say Chuckie Heston.
