Bill Moyers: Conservative Radicals and the Politics of Vengeance
By Bill Moyers, Bill Moyers Journal

Editor's note: In the following interview, Bill Moyers and powerhouse NYT editor and author of "The Death of Conservatism Sam Tanenhaus discuss the last gasps of the conservative movement. Tanenhaus says that far from signifying a resurgence of conservative ideals, the Tea Party protesters and shock jocks like Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh spell the doom of the conservative movement. The interview starts with some scenes from journalist Max Blumenthal's video of last weekend's right-wing protests in Washington. Check out the video, which features exclusive footage of the Tea Party protesters that swarmed the Capitol, at the end of this article.

BILL MOYERS: Conservatives were out in force in Washington last weekend. They had come to express their opposition to big government, to taxes and wasteful spending, and health care reform they fear would lead to a nightmare of bureaucracy. Max Blumenthal, author of REPUBLICAN GOMORRAH waded into their midst to sample opinions.

MAX BLUMENTHAL: So you're saying if the government eliminates Social Security and Medicare then you'll get out of the program?

WOMAN: No, I said if they get out of my life.

MAX BLUMENTHAL: Out of your Social Security and-

WOMAN: No, out of everything.

BILL MOYERS: But they had also come to deplore and denounce President Obama- in their minds a tyrant akin to Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, and Saddam Hussein.

MAN: I'm afraid he's going to do what Hitler could never do and that's destroy the United States of America.

MAX BLUMENTHAL: And what's the Obama revolution, what's going to happen?

MAN: Similar to Germany, like what Hitler did. He took over the auto industry, did he not? He took over the banking, did he not? And Hitler had his own personal secret service police, Acorn is an extension of that. ...............

i want to stop posting about shite like this

but the woman is CRYING. she thinks obama is the devil. she thinks her kid will turn into a black gay socialist within seconds of hearing the president's voice. W T F ???????????????

really. it is SO absurd. who knew ALL of these people existed anyway?



Right-wing mom so upset about Obama's pro-education speech, she cries on CNN
-- Stephen C. Webster

Think the "debate" over President Obama's planned pro-education speech to students had already crossed the line into absurdity?

Think again.

This video is from CNN, broadcast Friday, Sept. 4, 2009.

The poor woman who started crying as visions of "brainwashing" and "socialism" flashed before her eyes is a classic example of the mental and emotional trauma being inflicted on many Americans by propagandists out to score political points however they can, even by manufacturing utter nonsense. These individuals exist, of course, on all the political fringes, but seem to be especially reverberating among the right-wing constituency right now.

Suddenly, "go to school," "read books" and "college is good" becomes endless rows of brain-dead underlings, forcibly jacked-in to the Matrix and being reprogrammed by wicked television sciences, ready to goose-step toward, uh, something. Doctors perhaps? No, better to go with socialism........

this isn't from 1950

this isn't a parody. this isn't humor. this isn't anything but evil, intolerant, hateful, homophobic, 'unchristian' and fucking frightening





from feministing
Holy shit.

The American Family Association has a new DVD out, "They're Coming to Your Town," so you can learn the "strategies used by gay activists" and avoid gay infiltration in YOUR town!

Yes, really.......

let us NOT get too very comfortable

we all know we had a vice presidential candidate who tried everything within her power to stir up feelings of hate and fear. she never used certain words and phrases, but i contend it was her intent to incite feelings of racism (if those feelings are there, they're there whether someone stirs the pot or not. it just doesn't HELP if you get pushed). seems like she is STILL intent on stirring up those feelings too - as evidenced by her recent 'interviews'.

since election day there have been all sorts of horrid things happening. america as a whole elected our 44th president. he just happens to be 1/2 black. remember his OTHER half is white. his blood is the same color as everyone else's though. there have been chants of violence. there have been cross burnings. there have been hate crimes. there was a newspaper who didn't print the winner of the presidential election. there are incidents every day that are ugly. if people pray, they should pray for those that have no understanding, tolerance and are full of anger, hate and fear (it's usually the people doing all the shouting about god and praying that are the very ones that need the 'alleged' result of the prayers to begin with).

anyway, JUST DON'T BE TOO DAMN COMFORTABLE. 'they' are out there with their hate and violence and fear

Local Newspapers Cover Rising Number of Racist Anti-Obama Actions in Small Towns
By Dexter Hill
NEW YORK Many conservative pundits and Republican officeholders on the national stage have reacted to the election of Barack Obama as a promising step forward in the history of race relations and democracy in the U.S. But gaining much less coverage from the national media are local reactions that are far less accepting and positive.

Away from the spotlight, many local newspapers around the country have covered recent incidents of racially-motivated reactions to last week’s election, from flags hung upside down to the dangling of nooses and cross-burnings. As we noted last week, a couple in northern New Jersey who had an Obama sign on their front lawn woke up to find the charred remains of a cross out there. Local residents today announced a "unity march" to protest the still-unsolved incident.

Now come these fresh reports.

The Associated Press revealed today, "Police on eastern Long Island are investigating reports that more than a dozen cars were spray painted with racist graffiti, reportedly including a message targeting President-elect Barack Obama. The graffiti included racist slurs and sexually graphic references. At least one resident in the quiet Mastic neighborhood told Newsday her son's car was scribbled with a message threatening to kill Obama."

Employees at Hampel's Key and Lockshop in Traverse City, Michigan, flew an American flag upside down last Wednesday protesting of the new president-elect, the Traverse City Record-Eagle reported. One worker used a racial slur during an interview with the Record-Eagle: "(The inverted flag is) an international signal for distress and we feel our country is in distress because the n----- got in," said Hampel’s employee Rod Nyland, who later apologized for the comment, according to the Record-Eagle.................
