What gives with the right wing nutjobs?

[GingerSnaps]

CNN, Faux, MSNBC and all of the right wing news shows are brainwashing their viewers. Three years ago when a tape broke on Tweety I noticed some writing in the background and someone else mentioned it over the Internet. On Faux someone mentioned it on DU one time that the words Rat was in the background for a few seconds.

I'm an not your usual :tinfoilhat: person but something is odd about the Chimpy supporters. When they call up on C-Span they sound like they would take a bullet for the bastard.

The people on DU are not avid Fake News watchers. We might watch a segment here and there but we do not watch it 24/7 or we would have all cracked up by now. You can call me crazy but they might be subliminal brainwashing people like the Nazi's did.

Chimpy supporters act crazy and out of touch with reality. They can be as poor as hell but they will still support his tax cuts over a tax break for themselves. They would prefer to see a rich company move to India and it would be OK with them to take a job at Walmart with no benefits and at 2/3rds of what they were being paid before they would speak out and fight back over jobs being outsourced to another country. They also think that a BJ was worse then killing people in Iraq.

Something isn't right about the way the right wingers minds are working and it's either in the water which is a possibility or they are being brainwashed by the Corporate Owned Media. There is a possibility that it could be in the water because the red states are all grouped together. Also, Democrats are more educated and we make more money then the usual freeper so we are more abpt to purchasing bottled water and our water is from the ocean.

I know all of this sounds far fetched but how do you explain all of the red states being connected and also the Nazi news and radio shows. Something isn't right with these people and if Rush or Hannity told them to start shooting us they would. :tinfoilhat:

1. It's a quasi-religious thing

We at least have seen the Devil in full array.

Now we know what we have to fight.

They won't respond to Bush being a buffoon -- only to the fiction that Bush is the annointed baby brother of Sweet Jeebus.

Clear. Simple. And more than enough work awaits us, Christians and Heathens alike.

2. In the past on DU

many of us would wonder, especially, about those darn old C-SPAN callers.

We came to the conclusion that, in Texas and Florida especially, they keep some rabid RWers tied up, throw them raw meat every now and then, and make sure they have a dedicated telephone line in to C-SPAN for those precious "caller call-in" segments.

In fact, the low point of my C-SPAN viewing was when a caller from Texas threatened to kill Daniel Ellsburg (any other DUers remember that?) live on air. I had to stop listening after that. Oh, every now and then I will try to listen to them, but it's just...too...painful.

[GingerSnaps]

3. That was painful

Something is wrong with people that have no common sense or compassion towards others.

[XanaDUer]

4. Oh, do you mean the Ellsburg thing?

Do you remember that?

In fact, just before the election the other day, some woman with that shrill crazy voice only RW women seen to possess when they are on a telephone rant, went on about how can Republicans just *convince* people like us (sigh) about how dangerous Hussein was, that he had weapons, blah, blah, blah...

'Cause we're just too dumb to get it.

[GingerSnaps]

6. Is she the British caller?

It seems like they let them go on a rant and they don't stop them on c-span but let one of us do it and they will hang up.

Do you remember when they cleared the lines because their were too many democratic callers?

I remember the person that you are talking about and she sounded like she was nuts.

[XanaDUer]

8. No, this was a woman from a red state

I am going to give FL/TX a break (tho' she was probably from TX).

Yes, I remember when they cleared the lines.

And I remember when the host (not Lamb some youngish twit) chastised a Lib who lied to get thru on the Fascist line about NOT doing things like that again! Woo, very strict and adamant!

They just sort of say to the nutjobs, "Sorry, wrong line." and gently hang them up.

5. It wouldn't surprise me.

Nothing surprises me anymore. Bush could come on television tomorrow saying he was bringing back slavery and would use his newly aquired negros to transform the moon into his own private battle station to shoot lasers down at any country that opposes us, and I would say "meh... business as usual."

[XanaDUer]

7. Isn't that amazing?

Only in the new Amerikkka.

12. Well, it's been interesting.

Tin-foil hattedness cuts across all lines.

[GingerSnaps]

15. I can't figure out why

The nuts in the "red states" sound and act like they are willing to drink the Kool Aid.

[GingerSnaps]

13. Why

:shrug:

[EddieYost]

16. YO!

Aw man, I wasted my opus on your thread! My bad.

[GingerSnaps]

18. How high is your IQ

I don't mean 5 or 6 feet either.

17. What did you win?

Can you elaborate about what you have actually won?

[Maddy McCall]

19. Have fun in Iraq!

You wanted the draft, you got it! :-)

[XanaDUer]

20. Yes.

Be careful what you wish for...

[GingerSnaps]

21. LOL

How's your little boy doing?

[Maddy McCall]

22. Going back to the doc tomorrow. His fever spiked up to 102 tonight.

He has been on the antibiotics for 48 hours, even iv antibiotics were administered, yet he is still running fever.

So we are going to our real doctor tomorrow morning. Thanks for asking. :hug:

[GingerSnaps]

23. It's a good thing that you bought the glass thermometers

I am sending out good vibes to you and you little one :hug:

[Maddy McCall]

24. Yes, and I found one at home in my medicine cabinet, too.

Thanks! :-)
