As I have pointed out before, if you want to know what the left is up to, just check what they are accusing others of.<\/p>\n
Case in point, the so-called<\/em> “War on Women.”<\/p>\n While giving a get-out-the-vote speech at a Florence, South Carolina political event, Democrat gubernatorial candidate, State Senator Vincent Shaheen, told cheering fans of his opponent, sitting Republican governor Nikki Haley, “We are going to escort whore out the door.”<\/a><\/p>\n A so-called “reporter” at CNN by the name of Carol Costello, got on her high hobby horse in defense of “violence against women” when a football player got caught on camera<\/a>, but she found the story of Bristol Palin being assaulted a source of humor<\/a>. \u00a0 \u00a0The hypocrisy of the left knows no bounds.<\/p>\n This double standard of the left, where they condone, and even support, violence against any woman who does not support their extremist agenda<\/a>, is not new.<\/p>\n Conservative columnist Mary Katharine Ham wrote<\/a> the following ten\u00a0years ago<\/a> in about her “liberal” friends response to threats of violence against her.<\/p>\n Why did I deserve it? Because I\u2019m conservative, and to my liberal acquaintances, \u201cconservative\u201d is interchangeable with any number of fun words, like racist, homophobe, \u00a0warmonger, and bigot. Even my best liberal friends have refuse to let go of these one-dimensional definitions despite the fact that a three-dimensional specimen has been disproving all of them throughout our friendship. So much for nuance.<\/p>\n In short, I deserved it because I\u2019m a conservative (wink, wink, nudge, nudge.) And when you\u2019re dealing with people as dastardly as conservatives, anything goes.<\/p>\n This same rationale allowed liberal acquaintances to giggle when Ann Coulter was attacked by two young men with pies and shrug as former Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris was almost run over. NOW and NARAL would be holding weekly violence-against-women awareness marches if the same had happened to Maureen Dowd and Hillary Clinton. Suddenly, racism was an acceptable political tool. Jokes about Mammies and big-lipped caricatures were en vogue. Most of us got the memo that our culture deems these kind of attacks to be about as reprehensible as they get. Liberal cartoonists and commentators got that memo too. But there was no retraction from them, and not a peep from the NAACP or NOW.<\/p>\n Why no outrage? Because Condi deserved it. She\u2019s a conservative, you know.<\/p>\n Calling Condi \u201cBrown Sugar\u201d becomes a reasonable criticism because she is a member of the Bush administration. A physical attack on Coulter is a laughing matter because she is a hawk. Tailing a female acquaintance on a dark night becomes a funny joke because she\u2019s conservative.<\/p>\n It seems to me that this is not the path to a civil political climate or national healing, both of which my liberal friends want. To me, my liberal friends and acquaintances are folks who are a little too soft on national defense and a little too heavy on the government programs for my taste. They do not deserve physical or racist attacks for that, and I do not laugh when they happen. I wish they felt the same way about me.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As I have pointed out before, if you want to know what the left is up to, just check what they are accusing others of.

\nThere was the New York Times\u2019 dreams of an assassination attempt on President Bush and Ted Rall\u2019s double whammy hit on the mentally handicapped and Bush voters. But then came Condi Rice\u2019s appointment to Secretary of State. What a goldmine that was!<\/p>\n
