Most stomach-churning site of the day -- is this for real? |
|
I tripped across this site while searching for news on the latest hate crime attacks on black churches in Montgomery County, MD. Is this for real? Honestly, while perusing this site I found it so outrageous I thought this must be a satire! http://www.rightwingnews.com/category.php?cat=26

Not much different than the bile you will find on FR or the anti-DU.

4. First paragraph, and they don't proof read? |
|
Stanley Crouch has a great column "bemonaing" the tendencies of some hustlers to try to color every issue that involves minorities as a denial of civil rights. So, the transit workers strike in New York City that inconvenienced black and white New Yorkers alike so that workers with cushy benefits could strike for even better benefits that would amaze the rest of us suddenly became an issue of racism by the city against the black members of the union.

8. Homeschooler. They can't proofread. |
|
Homeschooling only works if the parents know how to read or think.

5. Looks like unintended satire to me. |
|
The little side ad about Texas is hilarious. It claims conservative values are alive in Texas, and as a result we have plenty of jobs, strong families, low taxes, etc. The job market in Texas sucks, taxes are low but income is lower. the jobs out there are falling in wages since Ann Richards left office, we have one of the highest divorce rates in the nation, a very high cohabitation rate, the highest number of uninsured children in the nation (last I heard), the highest number of children below pvoerty, one of the worst records for child support collections (and given our divorce rate and the number of children below poverty, we have the strongest need for strong child support collections...
Tell them idiot conservatives to come on down. They'll be unemployed, and on welfare within a month, if they can find welfare. Their wives will live their lazy, spoiled asses and they'll skip out on child support. A conservative hypocrites dream...
Oh yeah, our schools suck, too. Of course, Repubs want that. The stupider the person, the more likely to vote conservative.

6. Looks real, but it's not the worst... |
|
by far.
He takes ads, the WSJ being one of them, and his faq is straightup. Even has his name in there.
I don't agree with damn near anything he says, but I don't think he's one of the really bad guys-- just another lame voice from the other side.
(It's not like we don't have any of our own lame voices...)

And I was just complaining that I didn't make O'Reilly's list.

10. It's looks real, but where are the eagles and yellow ribbons? |

No conservative website is complete without lots of eagles and yellow ribbons. I don't even see a rotating "Support Our Troops" banner.

13. Appears to be another generic RW wacko site Freepers would love |
|
You can find your typical homophobic, racist, anti-ACLU, liberal bashing, immigrant hating drivel -- rather like Freeperville, I assume. but then I don't have the stomach to deliberately visit Freeperland (the posts transplanted here are more than enough for me) so when I tripped across this site I thought this person must be joking. I guess not. :shrug:

16. They had a comment about DU there.. |
|
"Who Needs The Democratic Underground When You Have The March For The Voting Rights Act? It's always fun to go moonbat gigging in the fever swamps of the Democratic Underground, find comments from a few choice loonies, and serve them up for entertainment."
..snip
Then they ramble on about some comments that Harry Belefonte made.
:wtf:

17. Here's a quote I thought was interesting |
|
"It demeans those who really suffered under abusive laws and who struggled so long and so nobly for the civil rights that their descendants enjoy today."
Yep, didn't you get the memo? It's all over with. We now have equality, so people should just shut up and ENJOY their equal rights.
Racism is over in America. Nothing to see here . . .
. . . . right?
Right? Just ask Rush.
