More “Progressive Hate”
Filed under: Barking Moonbats, Politics, When democrats attack
Pretty sicking stuff. They are very vocal in calling for conservatives to be “tortured” and killed. One of these enlightened, open minded and tolerant liberals wanted to “string up” Supreme Court Justice Thomas. Hate and racism in one neat leftist package. The most polite liberal in this video wanted to send Justice Thomas “back to the fields.”
This was taken at a rally of the “liberal” group Common Cause.

Friday B-Movie Pick: The Eagle Has Landed.
A classic WWII Era thriller with a truly stellar cast. Michael Caine, Donald Sutherland, Robert Duvall, Jenny Agutter, and Donald Pleasence all make this film worth watching. Oh did I mention that Jenny Agutter is in it?

Culture of Corruption Marches On
He was found guilty on five counts of wire fraud and one count of theft of government property on Tuesday. Justice may be a bit slow, but it did come through in the end. The sentencing will be interesting.
More death threats against politicans
The text of the message read:
“To the Honorable William D. Snyder; You better just stop that ridiculous law if you value you rand your familie’s lives ashole.”
The “political activist”, Manuel Pintado, attends the University of Massachusetts. The University has been silent on his spelling and grammar mistakes.
Good to see the left is maintaining a civil discussion of the issues and not falling into a rhetoric of hate…or not…
Update: Ms. Malkin correctly identifies this as part of the Progressive Climate of Hate.
Obamacare mandate struck down as unconstitutional!
From Forbes:
Justice Roger Vinson of the U.S. District Court in Pensacola ruled today that the primary mechanism used by health reform to achieve universal insurance coverage–the individual mandate–is illegal. If his ruling stands it would void the 2,700 page, $938 billion health reform bill passed last year.
“Because the individual mandate is unconstitutional and not severable, the entire Act must be declared void.”
This isn’t the first ruling against Obamacare. Plus, over half the states are suing the federal government over the unfunded mandates in Obamacare.
Obamacare was an extremely unpopular bill that only passed with no Republicans voting for it, and bipartisan support against it.
Monday Book Pick: Diversity Lane
Diversity Lane by Zack Rawsthorne.
The web comic now in dead tree format! Great strip, on my short list of web comics to check daily. Rawsthorne captures the liberal mindset in brilliant one panel cartoons.
Quote of the Day
“To translate it into UNIX system administration terms … the post-modern, politically correct atheists were like people who had suddenly found themselves in charge of a big and unfathomably complex computer system (viz. society) with no documentation or instructions of any kind, and so whose only way to keep the thing running was to invent and enforce certain rules with a kind of neo-Puritanical rigor, because they were at a loss to deal with any deviations from what they saw as the norm. Whereas people who were wired into a church were like UNIX system administrators who, while they might not understand everything, at least had some documentation, some FAQs and How-tos and README files, providing some guidance on what to do when things got out of whack. They were, in other words, capable of displaying adaptability.” — The Cryptonomicon

TEA PARTIER SCOLDS MATTHEWS ON HARSH RHETORIC.
“MSNBC’s host doubled-down on his charge that Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) is a “balloon head” yet refused to answer his guest’s question about Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) and his famous assertion that Guam was tipping over. Meanwhile, Matthews again mis-characterized Rep. Bachmann’s statements about slavery and claims she said that the forefathers eradicated it, something she did not say. ”
MAHER FALSELY CLAIMS PALIN SAID ‘SOVIETS WON SPACE RACE’
Tommy Christopher, Mediaite: When Palin says “their victory in that race to space,” she’s clearly referring to the specific milestone of launching an artificial satellite into Earth orbit, as opposed to the larger “Space Race” that it precipitated.
Quote of the Day
“Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government’s purposes are beneficent…the greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well meaning but without understanding.”
