  1. I didn't know you were gay Lucrum. Kudos to you for wearing your badge proudly.

    This seems more like gay on gay crime that left wing thuggery.

    Controversies dim GOP hopes to take over Senate
    By Ted Barrett, CNN Senior Congressional Producer

    "Washington (CNN) -- Even before a second Republican Senate candidate tripped over incendiary comments about rape, GOP leaders in Washington knew that their once promising chances of winning control of the Senate had diminished.

    "Whether Richard Mourdock of Indiana can move past his controversial remarks and stabilize his campaign remains to be seen. Either way, once confident Republicans across the country now face the nail-biting final days of campaigning and a highly uncertain outcome on Election Day.

    "That's a big change from two years ago when Republicans made major gains in the midterm election and had reason to believe they could take back the Senate this year. But, in fact, Democrats now appear well-positioned to retain their slim majority and with it the ability to influence much of the Washington agenda during the next two years whether President Barack Obama is re-elected or former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney succeeds him.

    "Political operatives in each party caution that there are more toss-up races this year than in recent memory, so it's very hard to predict the outcome which they agree could be influenced heavily by the presidential ballot.

    "We are cautiously optimistic that we'll keep the majority this year," said Matt Canter of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which coordinates Democratic campaigns. He pointed to Democratic Senate candidates who are doing unexpectedly well in several red states, which is forcing Republicans to focus their energies and resources where they didn't expect to have to.

    "After apology, McCain does support Mourdock, spokesman clarifies

    "Republicans are spending millions of dollars playing defense in five of the 10 Republican-held seats on the map," Canter said. "Pundits didn't predict that."

    And then there's Coulter, doubling down on her contributions to the growing "why hate reps?" movement:

    Ann Coulter Defends 'Retard' Tweet, Says 'Screw Them' To Critics

    After Monday's presidential debate, Coulter tweeted, "I highly approve of Romney's decision to be kind and gentle to the retard." She later doubled down on her use of the slur, prompting even more backlash.

    "On Thursday, Colmes pressed her to respond to critics like John Franklin Stevens, a 30-year-old Special Olympic athlete, who penned a blog post about Coulter's tweet.

    "It would be one thing if I said in my tweet a joke about Special Olympics, a joke about Down Syndrome," she said. "No one would call someone with Down Syndrome ‘retard.’ I call you a ‘retard.'"

    "When Holmes said that some people believe the word "retard" is as much a slur as the "n-word," Coulter dismissed her critics as the "word police."

    “Oh, screw them,” she said. “That’s what they feel I do? I feel they’re being authoritarian bullying victims.”

    That line is great, she's basically admitting she's bullying.

    Keep it up, reps.

    Like I've said, the left wing is a bigger enemy to this Country than the terrorists. We shoot terrorists. What should we do about these domestic terrorists?

    Nice false equivalency, so in your mind calling someone a retard is equivalent to beating two people to the point of hospitlizing them, and torching someones property as well as the american flag?

    The fact of the matter is the left has always been the party of violent angry thugs, yet the media never calls them on it.

    Just a quick refresher, how many crimes were committed at Tea Party Rallies? How many violent crimes were committed at Ocupy rallies?

    I didn't bother sifting the news to find instances of rep inspired crimes, but they're out there. Maybe not today, specifically. I don't have time to look for this particular type of news, why do you?

    Anyway, you appear to be aggrieved, so let me offer lil lukie's answer to my observation, from months ago, that the reps appear to be a violent lot:

    Let's see...mix a little "ends justify the means" with a dash of compartmentalization. It's actually pretty easy to understand why interpreting liberal bullshit is not a complicated venture. When they claim they are not the violent ones, we can reach the conclusion that they quite possibly are. Progressives often state the opposite of what they actually believe.
