: TalkLeftRace-Free Open Thread
By Jeralyn
Bumped BTD
I'll be at the dentist most of the day and I'm tired of moderating race-baiting comments. Here's an open thread with a caveat....no Rev. Wright, no race talk. Those comments will be deleted when I get back.
In other news:
- Terry Kindlon has an op-ed in the Albany Times Union, Bush's view of war an insult to all
- Ann Althouse writes about Obama pitches to Texas delegates, including those like her son who are Hillary delegates, encouraging them to vote for Obama at the county convention.
More...
In the mail department, my e-mail box is flooded with hate messages from right-wing Rush supporters.
One writes:
"I am proud soldier serving in the Army and a proud supporter of Rush Limbaugh and Operation Chaos! ....Your party chose our candidate and now we will choose yours SO GET OVER IT! "
He seems to think we forced McCain on them.
Then there's ones like these, from long time Clinton haters, with very long memories:
I see that you are hot to trot in getting Limbaugh (for abetting fraud) and some Ohio voters indicted on falsifying an affidavit. Weren't you the same lawyer who was on TV every nite during the Clinton crime family presidency saying that the sex predator Bill Clinton shouldn't be prosecuted for lying to a grand jury under oath? Why your 180 degree turn...or is that SOP for left-wingers?
And this,
How ingenious of you, Herr Abrams. Lock up people who don't vote the way we want them to vote. The party will be pleased when they hear of your idea. And to bring in a former Clinton waterboy...I mean watergirl....in Jeralyn Merritt. A numbskull lawyer to scare people. Brilliant! Just brilliant, Herr Abrams. Heil Hitler.
Adolph Hitler 2nd.
And my personal favorite:
You're a desperate, attention seeking, aging
ex-celeb and we're tired of you. Oh yeah, and comb your hair, for God's sake.
There are some really sick people out there in radioland.
