Why are so many of the video posts about right-wing commentaries or nonsense. |
|
I'd rather not see Jeff Sessions, or some right-wing comment. This is a Democratic Underground. I don't come hear to watch Sarah Palin mouth off or hear what Rove has to say. I can go elsewhere for that. Just wanted to voice my opinion. There is simply too much right-wing blather. Are some of us so addicted to our torturers that we can't bear a day without hearing their vile outbursts. Please recommend if you agree with me. I'd like to see only liberal postings on the video page.

3. I really don't understand why we share our resources with those who are against our purposes. nt |

4. I'd be complaining about all the duplicate postings, first and foremost. That's a real waste.n/t |

5. ok, I will play devils advocate here.... |

At least, this is what my husband tells me when he listens to right wing garbage (he is not only a liberal, but a total bleeding heart). Since the freeper types own so much of the media, certainly am radio, it is important to know what they are saying and who they are reaching. Especially since meme's often start at the nuttery grassroots level and wind up, thru the help of the nuttery echo chamber, in the mainstream media, in some form or another.
I, personally, can't stand this stuff, too stomach turning, but I am just repeating what he tells me.

8. Because they are targetted? |
|
I can't stand to watch Morning Joe, or Glen Beck, or ANYTHING on Fox, but a lot of prime idiocy is spouted there. It's helpful to get that 1 minute clip that is so outrageous without having to sit through a half-hour of normal nonsense.
I can't bear O'Reily, and but for these clips I'd never have heard about "...fuck it! FUCK IT. I'll do it LIVE!"

9. It's always good to know what the enemy is doing. |

As a bonus, one can laugh at the idiocy provided when a nutjob opens his/her mouth. I don't know why anyone would feel it is necessary to complain about the amount of wingnut commentaries, to tell you the truth. If the subject doesn't interest you, don't click on it. It's a very simple concept, actually.
