Spew

Thank you Michele. Once again you have made it clearer than I ever could. The words are like an entry from the encyclopedia of life as to what the difference between the left and right are these days.
Hatred is why I have no regard for the left wing. Not my hatred, and not most others on the right. It is the hatred that spews out of the mouthpieces of the left wing. It is taken as a fact on the left that Ken Starr and Rush Limbaugh hated President Clinton. But that isn’t true. They may not have liked him, distrusted his policies and politics, and hated that he got away with a felony while in office, but they never wished him dead.
Not so the Michael Moores and the rest on the left. I have no doubt that they dream of a left wing martyr assassinating the President Bush to save the world.
Michele’s commentary sums up the hate from the left well.
That’s a pretty big difference when you think about it. One set of people will go to the polls and vote with confidence. The other group will go to the polls and vote with trepidation. One uses their heart to guide them, one uses their hate.
It’s the hate that separates them, too. I don’t think many people on the right actually hate Kerry. They don’t think he will make a good president. They don’t like his nuance, they don’t trust him with the keys to the country, but they don’t hate him. At least nobody is writing plays about killing him.
Hate and fear. That’s what I’m seeing from the left. And it’s funny in a way, because it wasn’t too long ago that the left was accusing the right of running a campaign of fear.
But the best part is a comment left by BumperStickerest:
Dad of two elementary-aged boys here - I drew the distinction for them between ‘The Left’ and ‘The Right’ along common-sense lines.
I explained to them that the Right tends to be more common-sensical about things, to a point. More ’size up situation, consider the alternatives, and go with what you think is best, based on what you know.’ That sort of thing.
The Left, I explained, tends to be bat-shit crazy thinking that people with common-sense are evil and that the cloud fairies will plant the money trees that will pay for all the stuff they want to do.
I think my message is getting through.

wow that is good, an excellent description.. what a find!
Now I have to say, I personally am utterly repulsed by Kerry (perhaps it is because he reminds me of my mother?) This man is consistent about one thing and one thing only.. he is consistent in being inconsistent!
I have a total issue with liars, and an issue with people who try to set themselves higher by stepping on others. That is what kerry is and has been doing!
For me i could never like in the slightest not to mention support a person who has those characteristics.. and honestly i am a person who would hate him.. but for this goes to anyone who holds those types of characteristics i am not being selective about it.. i just really dispise people who treat others as Kerry has done, and as those who are supporting him has done.. it makes me completely ill!
