Hey Skinner! You still talking to those lawyers?
It would seem that someone at Politico thinks we sit around all day thinking up ways to kill righty.

Sounds like defamation to me:

Other conservatives said the criticism reeks of hypocrisy. “Keith Olbermann rants regularly about ‘fascists’ taking over the country, and each day for years has named one or more conservatives ‘the worst person in the world.’ Other liberal talk hosts are scarcely more restrained,” said law professor Brad Smith, a former FEC chairman, in POLITICO’s Arena.

“The comments sections of the Daily Kos, Democratic Underground, and other lefty sites are full of the most vile comments and death wishes for Republicans on a regular basis,” Smith added.


:shrug:

1. Oh, the Shame of Being Named Worst Person in the World!
Hasn't stopped a one of them yet from spewing hate or acting hateful. Not the way bullets stopped the doctors, lawyers, judges, legislators and presidents who sought to bring justice, law and peace to the nation...

7. Is that not hilarious?
It's all over their blogs today. I guess being a Worst Person is about the most awful thing that could ever happen to a wingnut. :rofl:

3. Look, I just want the ALL to rot in Hell.
I don't care how they die. I would prefer in their sleep after a long and fruitful life, but it is probably hard to squeeze in a lifetime of goodness in just a few years. I think Skinner might need to take POLITICO to task.

4. They cannot stand the thought of liberals getting a forum to discuss ANYTHING, ANYWHERE.
Edited on Mon Jan-10-11 09:05 PM by freshwest
The camaraderie, good ideas, statistics of contributing membership and high number posts is making them paranoid.

Their envy must be giving them ulcers. No one is even threatening them in anything approaching what they have done.

And nothing said here in anyway contributes the offline violence their adherents have perpetrated.

They must be reading these threads and see the connections that are being made by the many people here who are willing to talk. So they are very frightened.

Of the truth coming out. But it will, it always does.

:dem:

6. Skinner, have you been hiding the death wishes?
Is there a death wish forum I am not aware of? LOL
