Liberal Bigotry

There is a pariah in the liberal Democratic party, Senator Joseph Lieberman ibe thy name.

Read this. Pretty shocking stuff from Lanny Davis, former counsel to President Bill Clinton....

Now, in the closing days of the Lieberman primary campaign, I have reluctantly concluded that I was wrong. The far right does not have a monopoly on bigotry and hatred and sanctimony. Here are just a few examples (there are many, many more anyone with a search engine can find) of the type of thing the liberal blog sites have been posting about Joe Lieberman:
• "Ned Lamont and his supporters need to [g]et real busy. Ned needs to beat Lieberman to a pulp in the debate and define what it means to be an AMerican who is NOT beholden to the Israeli Lobby" (by "rim," posted on Huffington Post, July 6, 2006).
• "Joe's on the Senate floor now and he's growing a beard. He has about a weeks growth on his face. . . . I hope he dyes his beard Blood red. It would be so appropriate" (by "ctkeith," posted on Daily Kos, July 11 and 12, 2005).
• On "Lieberman vs. Murtha": "as everybody knows, jews ONLY care about the welfare of other jews; thanks ever so much for reminding everyone of this most salient fact, so that we might better ignore all that jewish propaganda [by Lieberman] about participating in the civil rights movement of the 60s and so on" (by "tomjones," posted on Daily Kos, Dec. 7, 2005).
• "Good men, Daniel Webster and Faust would attest, sell their souls to the Devil. Is selling your soul to a god any worse? Leiberman cannot escape the religious bond he represents. Hell, his wife's name is Haggadah or Muffeletta or Diaspora or something you eat at Passover" (by "gerrylong," posted on the Huffington Post, July 8, 2006).
• "Joe Lieberman is a racist and a religious bigot" (by "greenskeeper," posted on Daily Kos, Dec. 7, 2005).
And these are some of the nicer examples.
One Sunday morning on C-Span I debated Nation editor Katrina vanden Heuvel on the Lieberman versus Lamont race. Afterwards I received a series of emails--many of them in ALL CAPS (which often suggests the hyper-frenetic state of these extremist haters)--that were of the same stripe as the blog posts, and filled with the same level of personal hate.

And these kids love to use their anti-Semitic reporte also. See, if they do it, it's all fine and dandy since Lieberman is a more moderate to conservative leaning Orthodox-Jew. Very tolerant and nice of you all......

And of course, any friends of Mr. Lieberman are now feeling the pinch of these hateful bunch of coffee shop dwelling non-working liberal "experts."

But the issue is not just emotional outbursts by these usually anonymous bloggers. A friend of mine just returned from Connecticut, where he had spoken on several occasions on behalf of Joe Lieberman. He happens to be a liberal antiwar Democrat, just as I am. He is also a lawyer. He told me that within a day of a Lamont event--where he asked the candidate some critical questions--some of his clients were blitzed with emails attacking him and threatening boycotts of their products if they did not drop him as their attorney. He has actually decided not to return to Connecticut for the primary today; he is fearful for his physical safety.

Gee, I thought it was only the GOP Gestapo that threatened people. Turns out the commies and nihilists are old hands at this also.

Well, good luck Senator Lieberman, and supporters during this primary day.

To paraphrase one commentator: "Today's primaries could spell the end of the Democratic Party as a viable party that would combat terror. If Lamont wins, he is one who is against support of the troops and any conflicts against terrorist, expect the Soft Underbelly of the Democratic Party to grow more. Lamont is also critical of Israel's use of force against terrorists. If Lamont wins, put another nail into the coffin of the Democratic Party of FDR, Harry Truman, Woodrow Wilson, and even Jack Kennedy. The Democratic Party will die, the Liberal Democratic Sell Your Mother for Sham Peace Party will be born and it will be strong, considering the make up in the Congress."

Yep, if Lieberman loses, expect the radicals to start taking control of the party and making it more obstructionist than ever.

And today is a primary in which staunchly anti-War, cop-slapping, race-baiting, Bush-bashing, PLO-backing, anti-Semite Cynthia McKinney is running against a more moderate Democrat, Hank Johnson.

And for those of you complain this is too BIASED, it's a blog, it's supposed to be biased. Unlike your so-called press, I don't hide my disdain for the radicals destroying the US.
