The Unhinged Left In Their Own Words- Latest RNC GOP Ad Video

The RNC's latest ad demonstrates just how "unhinged" the left has become, and it's getting  progressively worse with each Trump win. Unhingedness can eventually lead to violence- we're seeing it now in the anti-Kavanaugh protests. And remember what happened last year to Congressman Steve Scalise and several others, when an unhinged left-wing activist opened fire  on bunch of Republicans at baseball practice? They survived, but one day someone is going to get killed, and I will hold responsible every celeb, journalist and politician who encouraged others to violence.

Even California Rep Maxine Waters urged her supporters to harass Trump officials wherever they might happen to be. (See video below) That kind of encouragement is irresponsible and extremely dangerous, especially coming from a politician. Shame on her!

We've already seen Trump officials being harassed, demeaned, chased out of restaurants. I didn't realize there were so many, but here's a list that doesn't even include the latest on Ted Cruz.

What is happening to this country? I don't recall the right ever being as hateful as this during the 8 years of Obama.

Dummies For Liberals- Joke of the day

For a little levity- though it really is nothing to laugh about- I present a different take on the "For Dummies" books.

"Dummies For Liberals"

In case you can't read what the meme says:

Learn to:

-believe your own bullshit
-gaslight and manipulate others
-find joy in destroying the families you hate
-hate the country with pride
-attack conservatives in public
-abuse the kids of public officials to win an election
-use emotional blackmail
-break laws instead of change them
-report someone who has hurt your feelings

I'll add one:

-destroy a man's life for political gain

I am so sick of them all.

Kavanaugh's "Meany-Face" Means He's Guilty- The Babylon Bee

A friend just turned me on to The Babylon Bee, a conservative version of the on-line satire site The Onion.  He had actually forwarded the article "Trump Supporter Executed Live On Stage At Grammy Awards"- which wouldn't seem that far fetched considering the way things are going these days. There is such palpable hatred toward Donald Trump and his supporters, no doubt the haters would be delighted if they were all executed.

I didn't think it was possible after 8 years under the uber-divisive reign of Barack Obama, but

we have become an even more polarized society since Donald Trump became the POTUS. I blame it on the relentless efforts of the media and everyone on the Left (in concert with some on the Right) to remove Trump from office since his first day as president. Actually it started when he became the Republican presidential nominee and hasn't stopped since. There are things about Trump that bother me, and some things he has done that I take issue with, but for the most part he has done some very good things for this country.

So, I was wondering  how The Babylon Bee would weigh in on the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation, which is just another thing that has severely divided this country. I will share my thoughts on that later, but for the time being The BB is spot on.

"Confirmed: Unpleasant Facial Expressions Now Admissible As Evidence of Guilt".  

WASHINGTON D.C.—The FBI has introduced an advanced new CSI technique for determining whether or not a person is guilty of a crime: pausing a video of the person while making an unpleasant face. “If a person makes a meany-guy-face even for one part of a second, we’ve nailed them,” said FBI director Marlon Quinn. “They are obviously guilty; otherwise, why would they make a meany-face?”

Had to laugh because as I was scrolling through my Facebook feed that's exactly what people were thinking. Hyper critical of his justifiable emotional response and anger.

Kid Rock and Sean Penn In Video- Don't Let Politics Divide

This is incredibly surprising: Republican singer/musician Kid Rock and lefty Sean Penn have collaborated on a Public Service short film. The message: don't let politics divide us.

"Americans" is a short, public service film starring Sean Penn and Kid Rock, directed by Jameson Stafford. The goal of the film is to tear down the one-dimensional political stereotypes portrayed by the media by confronting them head on. It reminds us that what really matters is that we're all Americans, with diverse thoughts, opinions and stances on issues. We are millions of unique, individual parts, the sum of which comprise a whole that is the shining beacon of freedom throughout the world.

The film reminds us to be proud of our differences, and to never forget that we're all in this together as Americans.

Watch the 10 minute or so film here, it's worth it.

The liberals will find it harder to get along than conservatives- there's just far too much anger, but glad to see someone like Sean Penn  encouraging us all to get along. The ball is really in their court.

Wouldn't it be nice not to be vilified for our politics.

Jon Lovitz Blasts The Left For Playing The Race Card

It started back in April- when former "Saturday Night Live" star Jon Lovitz blasted Obama (with some choice words) for saying that the rich don't pay their taxes.

Then, according to Twitchy Entertainment, he took  a lot of flak from liberals after he berated Obama for his “If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen” comment.

Lovitz posted on his Twitter account:

Jon Lovitz‏@realjonlovitz

Anyone who starts a business takes all the risk, financially. The government taxes your business. And if it fails, the owner loses his money

and

Jon Lovitz‏@realjonlovitz

Amazing! The picture I tweeted of Obama is a joke! Sarcasm! BTW, if a business goes under, does the government give you a refund? Nope!

In response, the ever classy Ellen Barkin tweeted:

Ellen BarkinVerified‏@EllenBarkin

John Lovitz maybe I met you a few times back in the day,but now you're just an ignorant asshole.Shut the fuck up.Long live our president.

His twitter feed was also littered with comments from followers not too happy with his calling a spade a spade. (And no, that is not meant to be racist!) Yep, liberals aren't so much into freedom of speech thing when it comes to their messiah. Though conservatives are definitely fair game, as Lovitz admitted.

Jon Lovitz‏@realjonlovitz

“@6ixty2wo: @realjonlovitz did u get this much flack when u joked about President Bush?” Nope! No one said a word!

Of course, no-one said a word because it's perfectly okay to joke about and/or vilify conservatives.
Then Lovitz defended himself from the usual asinine 'you're a racist if you criticize Obama' accusations.'

Jon Lovitz‏@realjonlovitz

Because I criticize the President, they say I don't care about black people. So when I made fun of Bush, that meant I dislike white people?


Jon Lovitz‏@realjonlovitz

Amazing how many"liberals" see Obama as a black man who became President. I see him as the President. Period.

Lovitz keeps declaring he's still a Democrat (and he did vote for Obama), but I think he's just saying that because he doesn't want to totally alienate his fan base, and those who might hire him.  But somehow, I doubt he'll be voting for Obama this time around.  It's hard for liberals to admit they've had a change of heart in an uber-liberal industry,  although some do. There's David Mamet, and Jon Voight, who has been very vocal about his conservative views. 

But to demonstrate how fear runs deep for liberals who don't toe the Democratic Party line, Twitchy posted this Twitter conversation between patriot_prophet and Lovitz:

Prophet Patriot@patriot_prophet 20 Jul 12


Sorry @realjonlovitz you may be a Democrat, but your recent tweeting puts you in the old school Dem group, more Libertarian than leftist.




Jon Lovitz✔
@realjonlovitz

@patriot_prophet I agree! It seems like the parties switched. Whatever President Kennedy was, I'm that.

It's no longer on Jon's feed (unless I missed it), but still on patriot_prophet's.

As a side note, JFK was actually more aligned with Republican philosophy, and were he alive today, he'd probably be a Republican, or at the very least a Blue Dog Democrat.

Kudos to Jon, though, for having the cojones to tell it like it is.

Are You More Or Less Liberal Than Obama- Quiz

The CS Monitor has a fun on-line multiple-choice quiz to determine whether you are more liberal (if that's possible) or less liberal than Barack Obama. There are 21 questions based on his actual policies, not his campaign promises, including:

1. Since 2005 America’s dependence on foreign oil has declined, from 60 percent to 49 percent. Most people agree we need to decrease our dependence on foreign oil even further. What’s the best plan to achieve this goal?

and

3. Since 2008, millions of Americans have lost their homes in the foreclosure crisis. What would you do to help those still struggling to pay their mortgages on time?

Click here to take the quiz.  Be warned, it does take a while to filter through all the possible answers.

I've been surprised by results of various quizzes including this one. I guess maybe I'm more conservative and not as moderate as I had thought, but am definitely not liberal.

Have fun.

Dr. Conservative- Joke of the day

Pretty much says how many of us feel!!

"Kill Scott Walker" and Other Liberal Niceties

Scott Walker won his recall election fair and square, and it has the liberal world in an uproar. As a result, the "Kill Scott Walker" tweets started almost immediately.

Twitchy.com has a list of vile Twitter posts, including these lovely ones:

@ILoveLexiss:   I'm not saying somebody should kill Scott Walker but uhhh Maybe somebody should Lincoln his ass jus saying—
LexXxie♥ (@ILoveLexiss) June 06, 2012


morgan y evans@morganyevans:  Scott Walker needs to die 5 Jun 12

Karlä ♥@MexicanLust69:    Scott walker needs fall down the capital stairs and die..

@Prototypeisgame Please somebody kill Scott Walker.—
(@Prototypeisgame) June 06, 2012


KILL SCOTT WALKER KILL SCOTT WALKER KILL SCOTT WALKER KILL SCOTT WALKER KILL SCOTT WALKER KILL SCOTT WALKER! Ole Bitch Ass Pig Ass Nigga!!!! @SeXXX_Symbol_

YEAH IM BASED!@caleb_white:  Scott walker will die within the next week ive already payed for the hit

Somebody need to Abe Lincoln Scott Walker cave frog lookin ass.—
Ocean Gang Goon (@SeXXX_Symbol_) June 06,

Somebody needs to put their asses in jail, and teach them a little lesson in civility. But it's not just Walker they were threatening, they also threatened his family:

@TaeesWorld If I ever see anybody of the Walker family on the street, ima pop they ass.—
Ya Girl Tae (@TaeesWorld) June 06, 2012

None of my liberal friends seem too outraged about these threats. Haven't seen a peep on Facebook. But I can guarantee you had Walker been a Democrat and the Twitter posts from conservatives, it would have been plastered all over Facebook.
According to Twitchy, the Wisconsin DOJ and Police are looking into the death threats, but is that enough?  What is wrong with liberals?  Yes, we have the same types of people on the right, and a few have made death threats, but I don't recall in such numbers, and they were always skewered for their actions. Deservedly so.  But what's not okay for the conservatives is perfectly okay for the liberals.

But people weren't just pissed at Walker for his win, they were also angry at Barrett for losing.
Take that angry liberal who asked Tom Barrett if she could slap him for conceding the race too early. He told her he would rather a hug, but when he leaned over for that hug, she went ahead and slapped him instead.

Stay oh-so classy, liberals.

'A Voter's Guide To Republicans' For Democrats and Independents

Bill Whittle, conservative editor, screenwriter and director, has put together a great little 'Voter's Guide to Republicans' for all those liberals out there who are convinced we are all evil Greedy, Fascist, Racist pigs.

He sets the record straight with historical facts.  But, as one commenter on YouTube put it, liberals won't have the stomach or attention span to watch this.

Occupy Black Friday- Occupy Movement Targets Retailers

I'm not one of those consumerists who plans to snuggle up close with hundreds of shoppers lined up waiting to snag the best deals at retail stores on Black Friday. But there will definitely be hordes waiting in front of  places like Wal-Mart and Burlington Coat Factory, at some ungodly hour, looking for that great buy.  Some crazy young woman (and friends) in Tampa/St. Petersburg, Florida will have camped out 9 days in advance at their local Best Buy to get those discounted goodies.

But Black Friday participants might have their shopping fun thwarted by those gadfly Occupiers who have decided to take aim at large retail stores including Wal-Mart and Burlington Coat Factory. Yes, they are moving on from banks and wall street to retail: the big chain stores, and the publicly traded ones, that is, like:

Abercrombie & Fitch, Amazon.com, AT&T Wireless, Burlington Coat Factory, Dick's Sporting Goods, Dollar Tree, The Home Depot, Neiman Marcus, Office Max, Toys "R" Us, Verizon Wireless and Wal-Mart.

Small businesses are cool, however, and they encourage you to shop there on Small Business Saturday, just don't use your credit cards. Because American Express and Visa and MasterCard are, after all, evil corporations that force people to max out their credit cards. At least that's what the Occupy Black Friday movement seems to think. It has its very own website, stopblackfriday.com (created by some malcontent called 'thescreaminghead' with his very own Facebook page), which states that

... the credit cards the 99% overcharge will allow the 1% to enrich themselves gluttonously on the backs of hardworking people who simply want to provide a memorable time for their families. So just imagine what would happen to the 1% if the 99% did not spend on Black Friday."

Yes, those nasty credit card companies are holding a gun to every credit card holder's head telling him/her to "shop 'till you drop, or else."

What about taking responsibility for your own actions rather than blaming corporations for your lack of self-control? Of course, these are the leaches who want to be provided for by the government and can't be bothered to realize that many of those 99% of hardworking people work at those retail stores they plan on "Occupying".

They do make a point of saying: "We are NOT anti-capitalist, just anti-crapitalist."

Huh?

I don't think Occupy Black Friday will have much traction, and I don't expect too many will participate, but according to the stopblackfriday blog they do have some protests planned for Boston and Seattle. Seattle is targeting a Wal-Mart.

Please give these people jobs and get them off our streets!

Michael Moore Likens UC Davis Pepper Spraying To China's Tiananmen Square

 I've always considered Michael Moore a dolt, and his latest ramblings regarding the U.C. Davis pepper-spraying incident confirms that.  In an interview on MSNBC he compared what happened to the 11 seated  students blocking a sidewalk on the U.C. Davis campus to the "tank man", the lone man in a white shirt who bravely stood in front of tankers in Tiananmen Square in 1989.

 I certainly don't condone what the police did to those silly students, but they have nothing in common with the Chinese people who demonstrated in Tiananmen Square; and to compare the two is asinine.  11 kids got pepper sprayed, they'll live, but hundreds to thousands got killed in China. No-one definitively knows the actual death toll, but it ranges from the official number of 241 to $3,000 found in a Soviet archive. It's safe to bet it was probably somewhere in between.  While Moore calls it an iconic moment in the history of the Occupy Wall Street Movement, it is in no way comparable to the truly iconic moment of the Tiananmen Square protests. 

While I believe people have the right to protest, peacefully, they don't have the right to break the law, and if they do so they suffer the consequences. If the police ask you to move because  you are obstructing a pathway, then you move. The kids were allegedly asked to move and warned they would be sprayed, and they refused. What the U.C. Davis police did was overkill, but the kids knew what was coming if they disobeyed.

Class Division In Occupy Wall Street- Jon Stewart's The Daily Show

As will happen in any society, the Occupy Wall Street movement (#OWS) in New York's Zucotti Park automatically divided into separate classes.
Samantha Bee on Jon Stewart's 'The Daily Show' investigates that class division. Some funny stuff.

There is no socio-political system that can eliminate the 'have's and the have-nots', that's just the way it is.

Northwestern Professor Mary Patillo Endorses Government Seizure Of Housing At OccupyChicago

Another wacko leftist professor indoctrinating our university students.

Mary Patillo, Professor of Sociology and African-American Studies, at an Occupy Chicago rally, talks about how the U.S. government should seize housing and make it public. She references 1959 revolutionary Cuba as a model. Guess she hasn't been there, because I have.

This is the kind of person teaching our kids.

Cain's Libya Gaffe Versus Obama's Hawaii/Asia Gaffe

Interesting how differently the media has treated Herman Cain's Libya gaffe over Obama's reference to Hawaii as Asia. It's okay for liberals to make monumental mistakes, but not conservatives.

Occupy Oakland Deposits $20,000 In Wells Fargo Bank After Defacing One

How's this for irony mixed in with a big dose of hypocrisy. After plastering a Wells Fargo Bank in Oakland with "Fuck the bank" and other nasties:



"Occupy Oakland" took $20,000 they received in donations and deposited that money in - you got it - a Wells Fargo Bank! Of course, they claim it's only temporary. They're looking to eventually move their dollars into a community bank or credit union.

Too bad Wells Fargo didn't just tell them where they could put it, in the interim.

John Lennon A Closet Republican?

Hard to believe that John Lennon, pacifist hippie extraordinare for the bulk of his adult life, actually admired Reagan and, had he been able to, would have voted for him in the 1980 Carter/Reagan elections.  But, according to John Lennon's  assistant Fred Seaman, for the final two years of his life Lennon was apparently a "Closet Republican" and would have done just that. 

"John, basically, made it very clear that if he were an American he would vote for Reagan because he was really sour on (Democrat) Jimmy Carter. He'd met Reagan back, I think, in the 70s at some sporting event... Reagan was the guy who had ordered the National Guard, I believe, to go after the young (peace) demonstrators in Berkeley, so I think that John maybe forgot about that... He did express support for Reagan, which shocked me. I also saw John embark in some really brutal arguments with my uncle, who's an old-time communist... He enjoyed really provoking my uncle... Maybe he was being provocative... but it was pretty obvious to me he had moved away from his earlier radicalism. He was a very different person back in 1979 and 80 than he'd been when he wrote Imagine. By 1979 he looked back on that guy and was embarrassed by that guy's naivete."

Quoted in a Toronto Sun article, Seaman divulges this information in a documentary film called "Beatles Stories".  Of course, after Jimmy Carter's tenure as President, it's not hard to understand why he might have made that choice.

As for his contrition and embarrassment over his past 'radicalism'-  he was an avid 'give peace a chance', anti-war political activist (remember the Bed-In with Yoko?), but he did not seem to advocate violence, unlike many others of his generation. Even the Beatle's song "Revolution"  (written in 1968) makes that pretty clear.

You say you want a revolution

Well you know

We all want to change the world

You tell me that it's evolution

Well you know

We all want to change the world

But when you talk about destruction

Don't you know you can count me out

Don't you know it's gonna be alright

Alright Alright

You say you got a real solution

Well you know

We'd all love to see the plan

You ask me for a contribution

Well you know

We're doing what we can

But when you want money for people with minds that hate

All I can tell you is brother you have to wait

Don't you know it's gonna be alright

Alright Alright

You say you'll change the constitution

Well you know

We all want to change your head

You tell me it's the institution

Well you know

You better free your mind instead

But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao

You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow

Don't you know know it's gonna be alright

Alright Alright

And who doesn't want a world at peace? 

Perhaps the seeds of change were planted back then, and it took another 10 years or so to come to fruition, but it just proves there's hope for all.  I know there are many who are  critical of the fact that, if he was indeed a conservative of sorts, he did not openly admit he was.  Obviously, I can relate.  Not everyone has the courage in the entertainment industry to be open about their politics, and that's certainly understandable.  At least we now know.

Zonation's Observations On Jon Stewart's Rally To Restore Sanity

Zo, Black Christian conservative artist from machosauceproductions, was at Jon Stewart's Rally To Restore Sanity in DC along with his video camera. As always, very interesting observations.

Countering some of the negative commentary regarding Tea Party gatherings and Glenn Beck's rally in DC and criticism regarding the dearth of African Americans attending those events, Zo noticed that the Jon Stewart's shindig, was also predominately white.

Also interesting were the interviews with some of the more intellectually challenged of the participants, especially in light of the fact that there have been a plethora of videos highlighting the same types within the Tea Party crowds.

Maureen Dowd Down On Obama "Dude"- Lib columnist blasts Obama

The Left's love affair with Barack Obama is slowly fading as people become increasingly disenchanted with the man for various, often opposing reasons. For some, he's just not liberal enough to stay in favor, for others I think the misty veil of illusion is finally being lifted and they are finally seeing him for what he truly is: an arrogant man with little to no substance. Of course, there are still many people (and I know plenty) who refuse to let go of that initial attraction to an individual that suckered the world into thinking he was God incarnate, ready to right the world's wrongs. It's a little like the battered woman in an abusive relationship who doesn't have the courage to leave. She keeps hearkening back to when the love was still alive, even though the honeymoon is over.

It does still surprise me, though, when certain liberals actually have the courage to criticize their messiah, as did Maureen Dowd, queen of the liberal op-ed columnists. Her article entitled, Can The Dude Abide is chock full of interesting insights, and for the most part- so true.

Barack Obama became president by brilliantly telling his own story. To stay president, he will need to show he can understand our story.

At first it was exciting that Obama was the sort of brainy, cultivated Democrat who would be at home in a “West Wing” episode.

But now he acts like he really thinks he’s on “West Wing,” gliding through an imaginary, amber-lit set where his righteous self-regard is bound to be rewarded by the end of the hour.

Hey, dude, you’re a politician. Act like one.

As the head of the Democratic Party, the president should have supported the Democratic candidate for governor in Rhode Island, the one the Democratic Governors Association had already lavished more than $1 million in TV ads on. If Obama was going to refuse to endorse Frank Caprio out of respect for Lincoln Chafee, the former Republican who endorsed him for president and is now running as an independent, the president should have at least stayed out of Providence.

She goes on to say:

His arrogance led him to assume: If I build it, they will understand. He can’t get the gratitude he feels he deserves for his achievements if no one knows what he achieved and why those achievements are so vital.

Once it seemed impressive that he was so comfortable in his own skin. Now that comfort comes across as an unwillingness to be wrong.

We want the best people to govern us, but many voters are so turned off by Obama’s superior air that they’re rushing into the arms of disturbingly inferior pols.

As for trying to push his own agenda rather than listening to the people, which is an indictment of his ramming through Obama care, she says:

Obama admitted to The Times’s Peter Baker: “There is probably a perverse pride in my administration — and I take responsibility for this; this was blowing from the top — that we were going to do the right thing, even if short term it was unpopular.”

But who defines what’s “right”?

With the exception of Obama, most Americans seemed to agree that the “right” thing to do until the economy recovered was to focus on jobs instead of getting the Congress mired for months in making over health insurance and energy policy. And the “right” thing to do was to come down harder on the big banks for spending on bonuses instead of lending to small businesses that don’t get bailouts.

The mid-term elections will signal if the Obama party is over and if people are brave enough to cut the umbilical cord.

Jon Stewart's DC Rally To Restore Sanity And Conservative Derangement Syndrome

Most of my FaceBook pals were eagerly awaiting Jon Stewart's DC Rally For Sanity. Some actually went there, others were planning on participating in sister rallies in other locales, while still others bemoaned the fact that they were unable to attend. Most of them, of course, are in the arts, but there were a few who aren't and those people were just as bummed about not being able to commune with fellow 'conservative haters' as my ultra liberal colleagues; and believe me the hate was and will continue to be palpable.

Most of them firmly believe that anyone who doesn't happen to be an Obama-loving liberal are right-wing fanatics. It matters not that some of us who dislike Obama happen to be moderate conservatives or just plain moderates, and that the majority of conservatives are not extremists- they hate us all. They see anyone deviating from the 'Obama-is-god and will magically solve the world's problems if given the chance' path as the enemy, so the fact that Republicans might take control over the house scares the heck out of them. The fact that some were endorsed by the Tea Party movement, frightens them even more. There are some who actually see the potential increase in Republican power as a doomsday scenario. Take one photographer pal who, along with an article on the Huffington Post entitled "If The Tea Party Wins, America Loses" linking to a Keith Olbermann video rant, posted the following comment on his FaceBook page:

"Fanatacism [sic]and ignorance is forever busy, and needs feeding. And soon, with banners flying and with drums beating we’ll be marching backward, backward through the glorious ages of that 16th Century when bigots burned the man who dared bring enlightenment and intelligence to the human mind." from Inherit the Wind

My no-longer friend, who is one of the few who knows my politics, is a bitter hater and that hatred has truly corrupted his mind. With G. W. Bush no longer in the political limelight, all that Bush Derangement Syndrome (BDS) has been transformed into CDS (Conservative Derangement Syndrome). Some of it is understandable, however. Although I generally respect the Tea Party movement, there are some questionable fringe elements. And some of the candidates that it endorsed, and that are now poised to either win or lose in the mid-term elections, should never have gotten this far. But Olbermann talks as if the Tea Party is synonymous with the Republican Party, which it is not.

However, just as we have a fringe element on the right, so does the left. Many of those, I'm sure, found their way to Stewart's ado on Saturday, as some of ours have ended up at Tea Party rallies over the years. But Glenn Beck's Restore Honor rally, which Stewart was lampooning, specified that there were to be no political placards at the event, and that request was honored by all, other than counter-protesters outside the venue. But at Saturday's fete there were plenty of placard, including several I found terribly offensive, see above. To view more go to Doug Ross' blog here. Of course, the typical liberal response (as evidenced in another Ross post about that libs diatribe) was that the placards were simply an exercise in sarcasm, and that conservatives are too stupid to discern the difference. What he fails to comprehend is that just as there might be some of us too "dense" (as he put it) to "get" the sarcasm in "Death To Right Wing Extremists", some left-wing crazy might also not "get it", and be inspired to haul off and harm someone he deems right wing. Isn't that what the left has criticized the Tea Party for? Some of their equally offensive placards inciting some right-wing militia-man to go out and hunt down liberals? Frankly, I have seen some very distasteful signs at Tea Party rallies, and I don't approve at all.

Whether it was sarcasm or not, it just proves that the liberals have as many stupid loons as we do, and we should be scared of them both.

Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg Walk Off "The View" Set In Unprofessional Hissy Fit

When I heard the news that Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar walked off "The View" in protest, I couldn't imagine what hideously offensive comment Bill O'Reilly might have made that would prompt these women to leave in such a huff. A very unprofessional turn, I might add, to walk off a show you are co-hosting, but I was curious to know what terribly 'bigoted' remark O'Reilly actually made that warranted such action. I cringe, at times, with some things some of our conservative talk show hosts say, but when I eventually found out what this so-called 'bigot' said I was totally shocked. I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised, considering the sources, but it would have at least been understandable had it been justified.

While trying to explain Barack Obama's low approval ratings, O'Reilly brought up the whole polarizing 'mosque near Ground Zero issue'. Not buying that the polls state 70% of the American population oppose it, the women questioned the validity. When questioned further, O'Reilly revealed that the reason was "Because Muslims killed us on 9/11." Whoopi called it "bullshit" and after some shouting both Whoopi and Joy, like angry children, walked off the set.

Since when is calling a spade a spade bigotry? And since when do we have to qualify our statements every time we speak about "terrorism"? Oh, of course, we're not really supposed to be using the word 'terrorist' (according to Obama) or associating Islam with terrorism, when the majority of terrorists these days just so happen to be Muslims. Or, in this case, we're supposed to refrain from saying that Muslims flew planes into the Twin Towers, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania? I think most of us assume when someone refers to Muslims killing us on 9/11 that they're referring to extremists and radical Islam. When we spoke of the IRA (Irish Republican Army) and all their terrorist activity during their violent heyday, should we not have called them Irish?

The fact is, it was Muslims not Catholics, not Buddhists, not Hindus, not Jews (although lunatic, delusional Mahmoud Ahmadinejad seems to think they had something to do with it) Muslims rammed those planes into the Twin Towers in the name of their religion. Yes, they were extremists, but that doesn't change the fact that they were Muslims, and telling people they aren't allowed to mention that is absolutely absurd. Walking off a show because someone mentioned that is even more absurd. Barbara Walters did berate them for walking off, not because she agreed with Bill O'Reilly's statement, but because in this country we should be allowed to debate without being censored or throwing hissy fits.

Whether one agrees with what O'Reilly said or how he said it, he had every right to opine. That's what makes this country great, our freedom of speech which is slowly being whittled away by people like Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg who call us bigots for having opinions that differ from their own.

Grow up and wise up. Being pc about the whole radical Islam issue is not going to make it go away, it's just making its ranks grow stronger.
