Leftist Icon Calls For Violent Socialist War Against Tea Partiers

Discussion in 'Politics' started by bugscoe, Nov 9, 2010.

  1. The lesson given to us by our resident leftists:

    As long as the person calling for violence is unknown, it's meaningless and a joke.

    Hey, didn't the "unknown" Time Square bomber get called out for being an angry tea partier pissed off over health care? Idiots, unknown people should be ignored as long as they're leftists.

  2. That's what you almost always claim when it really applies to you.

  3. No need for any kind of revolution.

    Simply, adhere to the principles of the Constitution. In doing so, "the right policy" is already spelled out. THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THE DAMNED THING! THAT'S WHY THE GENIUS OF THE FOUNDERS GAVE IT TO US!

    The only ones who want revolution are the liars and thieves who what to TAKE BY FORCE what others have earned.

    No, the point is that there are goofs on all sides. The OP, and others, are saying "all leftists".

  5. I agree however, I can guarantee you that the moment some unknown goof from the tea partier calls for violence, it will be breaking news everywhere with the media claiming, "see, we told you how violent these racists are!"

    The problem for the left is the tea party folk haven't fallen for any of it and they need some chaos to implement more of their regress.

  9. I don't think it's the government Ratigan has in mind when speaking of violence.

    Dylan Ratigan Disparages Tea Party as Pyromaniacal Crazies Bent on Destruction
    By Ken Shepherd | November 03, 2010 | 17:10

    Tea Party members, MSNBC’s Dylan Ratigan wants you to know that he’s just like you.

    Except of course that he’s not a pyromaniacal lunatic hell-bent on destroying America.

    That’s how the MSNBC anchor leaned forward, no, make that leaped, into insanity during a November 3 segment with Nicolle Wallace. The former George W. Bush staffer told Ratigan that, like him, Tea Partiers who fueled last night's electoral shakeup were furious at the direction of the country the past few years.

    That's where Ratigan launched into his screed.

    “Two people are pissed off, one becomes a Tea Partier, one, the other one becomes Dylan Ratigan,” the MSNBC host argued, adding:

    In response to that, Wallace argued, “their anger was converted into electoral success last night.”

    “Whoop-ti-do,” Ratigan flippantly and childishly retorted.

    “Well, whoop-ti-do, we live in a democracy and that’s our system,” Wallace shot back.

  10. I agree for the most part. However, I feel like the "evil rich people" sentiment was very palpable in his speech. I agree with most of what he said. However, it's hard to think that he doesn't hold the leftist belief that rich people are inherently "bad". It's also hard to think that his whole rant wasn't predicated by the election results. That said, I agree with much of what he had to say. However, bugs brings up good points about other statements that were made...
