Fox News and other right-wing media outlets called the Nut-Bag march on the Capitol “organic” and “spontaneous.” I don’t know about “spontaneous,” but it sure stank “in-organically” of evil, racism, anti-semitism and hate.
The delusion of the right is a “hate comedy,” packed with childish and absurd stunts of “scum-baggery” and political gerrymandering. While FAT Dick Morris is using the confusion to stuff his pockets, Michelle Malkin, the filthy Dog-Eating Auntie-Tom Filipino, is, as usual, using the opportunity to smear everything Obama.
George Lakoff: Conservatives are trying to redefine empathy as irrational personal feeling. In fact, empathy is the basis of our democracy and must be defended.
The Sotomayor nomination has given radical conservatives new life. They have launched an attack that is nominally aimed at Judge Sotomayor. But it is really a coordinated stealth attack — on President Obama’s central vision, on progressive thought itself, and on Republicans who might stray from the conservative hard line.
There are several fronts:Empathy, feelings, racism, activist judges. Each one has a hidden dimension. And if progressives think conservative attacks are just about Sotomayor, they may wind up helping conservatives regroup.
Conservatives believe that Sotomayor will be confirmed, and so their attacks may seem irrational to Democrats, a last gasp, a grasping at straws, a sign that the party is breaking up.
Radical conservatives know that Sotomayor will be confirmed. They also know that their very understanding of the world is being threatened by Obama’s success. But they have a major strength. They have their message machine intact, with trained spokespeople booked on TV and radio shows all over the country. Attacking Sotomayor, even when they know she will win, allows them to rally their forces and get swing-voting conservatives thinking their way again.
Actually, something sneakier and possibly dangerous is going on.
Let’s start with the attack on empathy. Why empathy? Isn’t empathy a good thing? [ READ MORE ]

William Maxwellof Tempe, Arizona writes in The USA Today: Some conservatives are objecting to the insertion of “empathy” into the equation to determine qualifications of individuals for the highest court of this country. Sometimes a synonym for empathy is mercy, a virtue, according to the Bible.
What happens when mercy or empathy is removed from the deliberations of the U.S. Supreme Court? You get a ruling such as the Dred Scott decision that stated blacks were “beings of an inferior order, and altogether unfit to associate with the white race and so far inferior that they had no rights which the white man was bound to respect.”
That infamous ruling in 1857 had the overwhelming approval of many conservatives in this nation, of the Southern ruling classes and seven of the nine members of the Supreme Court, including the chief justice, Roger Taney.
Take away empathy from human life and one not only gets tyranny, but one also gets the cruelest act of all: a denial of the humanity of unprotected individuals.
Craig Cotoraof Cape Coral, Fla writes: Judge abilities, not views — As we all know from our civics classes, the federal judiciary, like the executive and legislative branches of the government, was designed to be a separate and equal branch and is critical in the checks-and-balances framework that was laid out in the Constitution.
Consequently, the political views and opinions of any nominee for the federal judiciary, regarding abortion or any other social issue, are irrelevant. Only the individual’s impartiality, judicial abilities and integrity should be considered in the nomination and confirmation process.
Anyone who disagrees with that principle should take it up with the Founding Fathers.
This constant spewing of hate from the Lunatic right-wing dumbNUTS is a strategy – an incredibly dumb one!
They did not learn anything from the 2008 elections. Despite volley after volley of innuendo, lies, and bigoted smears, Obama still clobbered McCain by eight million votes. The Republicans clearly managed to whip their the “tea-bagging lynch-mobs” base into a frenzy, during the 2008 elections, but what they have failed to comprehend, is that the “threatening racism” continues to drive away boat-loads of moderates and minorities, especially Hispanics
Come 2012, if the economy has recovered substantially and is chugging along just fine, president Obama will be unbeatable, and the Republican party will sink further into a deep irretractable abyss … hopefully forever!
Keep digging GRAND OLD PRICKS!

Slate: A half a year after their catastrophe at the polls, Republicans remain more inclined toward self-immolation than self-examination. At its most recent meeting, the Republican National Committee spent its time discussing the most hilarious way to call Democrats “Socialists.” After Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter switched teams, bringing Democrats to the brink of a filibuster-proof majority, Jim DeMint of South Carolina said he’d rather have 30 principled Republicans in the Senate than 60 flexible ones. Wait, why not 25 really principled ones? Do I hear 15? There has been little open acknowledgment on the right of the depth of the problem, let alone any sign of the wholesale rethinking that the GOP needs to return to viability. [ READ MORE ]
Michael Steele — The GOP Needs To Stop “SLAMMING” and “RAMMING” Judge
Sotomayor!
Right-Wing media NutBAGS have baselessly blamed Mexican immigrants for spreading swine flu across the border, despite the fact that several reports have indicated that U.S. swine flu patients had recently traveled to Mexico.
Standing out in this crowd of Cattle-Callers is Michelle “Aunt Thomasina” Malkin, a Filipino American in the mode of Micheal Steele, the Head Nigger in Charge at the RNC or James T. Harris — A ReTHUGliTOM Suffering From Acute “Negro-Negrophobia.”
Though, she constantly refers to herself as a “Great American,” she first, as far as I am concerned, IS a child of Filipino immigrants, and that makes her call to round up all Mexicans in the United States, and lately — that Mexican immigrants are disease carriers (leprosy carriersper Lou Dobbs), more despicable than the preachings of Sick Media Toilets like Micheal Savage, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh.
Note — “… Malkin was born on October 20, 1970 in Philadelphia to Filipino parents, Rafaela and Dr. Apolo Maglalang, while they were in the United States onSudent Visas. She grew up in Absecon, New Jersey. Malkin graduated from Oberlin College…. In 1993 she married Jesse Malkin, a Rhodes Scholar and former economist for the RAND Corporation. As of 2004, Jesse was a stay-at-home dad raising their two children. …”
Like other bigoted right-wing dumbNUTS, Malkin is just another xenophobic, right-wing racist anti-immigrant propagandist, armed with lies, bogus statistics and fallacies of logic.
She naturally attempts to associate all immigrants with terrorism and all that is evil — to justify ending immigration. In countless articles written for racist organizations like — The National Review, VDARE and Townhall, Michelle typically bashes and encourages racism against Muslims, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, and especially immigrants.
She is a quintessential UNTIE-TOM — Marry a white racist and then worship everything white, including white trash.
This afternoon, groups of angry Republicans will gather on street corners and in parks across the country to protest. The suckers in the Tea Party movement have no idea that while their anger “might be” genuine in some instances, they’re doing the king’s bidding, not their own. A bunch of wealthy right-wing Republicans are using white ignorance and anger, to stir up rebellion against the first black occupant of the White-House, President Barack Obama. It is a desperate and racist scheme by a policy bankrupt G.O.P elite, recently swept out of power, who fear being left out in the cold for many years to come. [NOTES]: The definition of TEA-BAGGING according to the Urban Dictionary Online
While the anti-tax “tea parties” are officially toothless, conservative tea-baggers are full-throated about their goals. They want to give President Obama a strong tongue-lashing and lick government spending; spending they did not oppose when they were under Presidents Bush and Reagan.
The “Tea-Parties” scheduled for today has been peddled all week by Fox News and affiliated right-wing news outlets, as the big one!
Republicans, PREGNANT WITH CONSPIRACY THEORIES, will finally meet and give birth to the FATTEST theory of them all: That BO OBAMA is a “Muslim Socialist,” because he (The Dog) is wearing a white “Taliban Turban” on his chest!

Conspiracy Theory Conservatism is the hottest trend within GOP today. Or, as Jeff Feldman puts it: “A new movement within the Republican Party threatens to displace the historic roots of conservatism with obsessive fear of secret plots.”
“If the rash of ‘Tea-Party’ protests planned for Tax Day 2009 is any indication, the Right Wing in American politics may finally abandon all pretense at what Barry Goldwater once called the ‘conscience of a conservative.‘ Instead of that lofty, albeit tattered ambition, the Right Wing of 2009 is rapidly embracing a wild-eyed, media manipulated, and self-destructive ‘conspiracy theory conservatism,’” adds Jeff Feldman.
Yeah, “Bo Obama,” welcome to the White-House, you “Muslim Socialist” dog!
The “Dog-Whistle Racism” practiced by Republicans during last years’ campaign upto and into the Obama Presidency, is as incredible as it is repugnant.
Dog-Whistle Racism, per StopDogWhistleRacism.com is political campaigning or policy-making that uses coded words and themes to appeal to conscious or subconscious racist concepts and frames. For example, the concepts “welfare queen,” “states rights,” “Islamic terrorist,” “Socialism,” “Communism,” “uppity,” “thug,” “tough on crime,” and “illegal alien” all activate racist concepts that have already been planted in the public consciousness and now are being activated by purposeful or accidental campaign activities, media coverage, public policy and cultural traditions.
Republican media will spin their anti-Obama activities into a thousand and one permutations, but the naked fact is that the primary driving force behind today’s Tea-Parties, is pure RACISM — everything else is secondary, no matter how genuine.
Republicans still cannot stomach the fact the a black man is occupying “THEIR White-House.”
They are FROTHING floods venom in the mouth — enough venom to LYNCH A GENERATION OF COLORED PEOPLE!
They are desperate, deranged [Glenn Beck], sick, and are losing their minds. Sick to an extent that Homeland Security officials are warning that right-wing extremists are using the bad state of the U.S. economy and the election of the country’s first black president to recruit members to their cause. In the most recent report, the agency warns that imposing new restrictions on firearms and returning military veterans who have difficulties assimilating back into their communities could lead to terror groups or individuals attempting to carry out attacks. The returning war veterans have skills and experience that are appealing to right-wing groups looking to carry out an attack, according to the report.
“Despite similarities to the climate of the 1990s, the threat posed by lone wolves and small terrorist cells is more pronounced than in past years,” the report said.
In the 1990s, the report said, a resurgence in right-wing extremism was brought on by the poor economy and the outsourcing of jobs, with extremist groups targeting government facilities, law enforcement officers and banks.
The growth was slowed after intense government scrutiny of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombings, according to the report, but the Internet now gives extremists more access to information about making bombs and weapons training. The new technologies also make it easier for extremists to communicate, the report said, and make it more difficult for law enforcement to detect or prevent an attack.
In November, after Barack Obama’s election, law enforcement officials were seeing more threats and unusual interest against a president-elect than ever before.
One of the most popular white supremacist Web sites got more than 2,000 new members the day after the election, compared with 91 new members on Election Day, according to an Associated Press count. The site, stormfront.org, was temporarily off-line Nov. 5 because of the overwhelming amount of activity it received after Election Day.
Mr. President — Please be very careful!
