and that is supposed to mean something? random thoughts Send a noteboard - 20/01/2011 06:06:18 PM
You are cherry picking. Over all the communist have more in common with the totalitarian Nazis then people on the left are willing to admit. Both groups were anti-democracy government controlled societies that demand loyalty from the masses and punished those who spoke out. Now which party here wants more government control and wants to stifle free speech? Answer that and you have the answer to who is more like which party and unsurprising the answer is the same for both groups.

OK, I'm Officially Sick of the "Blood Libel" BS. Joel - 16/01/2011 12:18:22 PM 1991 Views
Why are they calling it "blood libel"? Camilla - 16/01/2011 12:23:47 PM 853 Views
Because if the facts were as they represent them those words would be applicable. Joel - 16/01/2011 12:49:22 PM 1030 Views
It's not entirely clear to me whether you're aware of this or not, but... Legolas - 16/01/2011 01:12:22 PM 1075 Views
That's why I said, "popularized". Joel - 16/01/2011 01:46:52 PM 1025 Views
I think Alan Dershowitz dealt with this nonsense already Isaac - 16/01/2011 02:34:10 PM 1367 Views
Interesting. I didn't realize it was so wide-spread. Legolas - 16/01/2011 03:10:28 PM 927 Views
She wasn't even the first to use the term that week either Isaac - 16/01/2011 10:10:35 PM 929 Views
I don't know that "expert" has anything to do with it. Legolas - 16/01/2011 10:18:54 PM 956 Views

Oh please don't you start to random thoughts - 17/01/2011 02:34:43 PM 810 Views
I for one hadn't noticed it before. Legolas - 17/01/2011 10:25:57 PM 979 Views
it was used here and nobody commented random thoughts - 17/01/2011 10:37:07 PM 869 Views
LOL, I totally forgot that got posted here Isaac - 17/01/2011 10:54:26 PM 921 Views
It's funny you should say that... Legolas - 18/01/2011 10:32:59 PM 952 Views
Precisely: I noticed, but it hadn't become a rallying cry for "the real victim" (Palin). Joel - 19/01/2011 12:14:48 AM 1061 Views
I thought you were the real vicitim random thoughts - 19/01/2011 02:49:06 PM 1035 Views
When and where did I say that? The ultimate victim is America, but six members of it just died. Joel - 19/01/2011 11:24:27 PM 756 Views
Re: It's funny you should say that... Isaac - 19/01/2011 03:29:52 PM 938 Views
It was permissible to ignore until it became a rallying cry. Joel - 20/01/2011 04:27:23 PM 962 Views
A rallying cry is hardly illegal Isaac - 20/01/2011 05:32:45 PM 1015 Views
I never said it was. Joel - 20/01/2011 06:59:39 PM 1145 Views
Oh, I noticed that one alright. Legolas - 18/01/2011 10:25:23 PM 794 Views
but is he accussed of being a tasteless moron who doesn't know what it means? random thoughts - 19/01/2011 02:28:03 PM 838 Views
I don't know, if I have to judge him based on that one article, then tasteless moron, absolutely. Legolas - 19/01/2011 06:14:43 PM 953 Views
compared to the way similar terms are used? random thoughts - 19/01/2011 06:58:02 PM 937 Views
I meant I hadn't seen it used in different contexts before. Legolas - 19/01/2011 07:35:00 PM 920 Views
The peole who called her stupid for using the term didn't know it was so wide spread either random thoughts - 17/01/2011 02:33:19 PM 812 Views
Indeed, my response to Legolas references Wikipedias quotation of him. Joel - 16/01/2011 10:24:09 PM 1006 Views
Re: Indeed, my response to Legolas references Wikipedias quotation of him. Isaac - 16/01/2011 11:09:21 PM 1035 Views
Again, Giffords specifically made the connection between Palins imagery and an attack on her. Joel - 17/01/2011 12:53:08 AM 1173 Views
That means precisely nothing Isaac - 17/01/2011 03:59:07 PM 871 Views
It means everything. Joel - 18/01/2011 08:34:55 PM 1141 Views
I'm trying to understand your logic Chas - 19/01/2011 12:50:28 AM 745 Views
There are two points: Joel - 19/01/2011 02:47:48 AM 934 Views
I don't agree, but I understand. *NM* Chas - 19/01/2011 10:14:13 PM 458 Views
Giffords' statements and Palins are matters of public record; they're indisputable. Joel - 19/01/2011 11:34:53 PM 909 Views
I must say, if more people on both sides could say that we'd all be better for it. Joel - 20/01/2011 04:32:55 AM 953 Views
Re: It means everything. Isaac - 19/01/2011 05:55:02 PM 772 Views
That's simply illogical. Joel - 20/01/2011 01:08:51 AM 1150 Views
the old step one steal underwear step three profit argument random thoughts - 19/01/2011 06:01:14 PM 1027 Views
Your inability/unwillingness to follow basic and clearly delineated logic is not my failing. Joel - 20/01/2011 01:19:31 AM 846 Views
I admit I can't follow gnome logic *NM* random thoughts - 20/01/2011 05:50:22 AM 448 Views
I demonstrated the connection, whether or not you choose to look the other way. Joel - 20/01/2011 03:16:28 PM 923 Views
that is some twisted and bizarre logic random thoughts - 17/01/2011 02:38:41 PM 970 Views
Giffords said Palins crosshairs imagery would have "consequences"; Palin calls the suggestion libel. Joel - 18/01/2011 08:54:45 PM 864 Views
yes but the only consequences is liberals using them to slander Palin random thoughts - 19/01/2011 02:58:35 PM 944 Views
I read Toms reply; I don't think he exactly vindicated your position, nor meant to do so. Joel - 20/01/2011 01:52:37 AM 1179 Views
It was an example of blaming the victim, a phrase you keep misusing random thoughts - 20/01/2011 06:28:21 PM 885 Views
I thought you said only liberals blinded by political bias committed that grave sin. Joel - 20/01/2011 07:47:09 PM 932 Views
so in other words you again missed the point random thoughts - 20/01/2011 08:26:49 PM 882 Views
Well, one of us did. Joel - 20/01/2011 09:24:35 PM 995 Views
so lets be clear do you or don't you understand what it means to "blame the vicitm"? random thoughts - 20/01/2011 10:03:48 PM 638 Views
I understand it well; can we be equally clear you say the victim here is Palin? Joel - 20/01/2011 10:44:08 PM 1070 Views
So I am a little confused on something... MightyYT - 16/01/2011 02:38:59 PM 1028 Views
Palin putting Giffords district in the crosshairs and Giffords implying at the time she feared this Joel - 16/01/2011 11:21:36 PM 1164 Views
If I understand what you are saying correctly... MightyYT - 17/01/2011 07:07:56 AM 900 Views
I'm sorry you so badly misunderstand. Joel - 17/01/2011 08:33:47 AM 908 Views
Re: I'm sorry you so badly misunderstand. Isaac - 17/01/2011 04:24:01 PM 963 Views
The Secret Service does guard Congressmen, just not all of them automatically. Joel - 18/01/2011 09:13:39 PM 798 Views
No, they don't Isaac - 18/01/2011 10:19:34 PM 985 Views
Really? Cannoli says differently, and I believe he's right on that one. Joel - 18/01/2011 10:50:51 PM 1064 Views
You seem to be reading what you want to from what I said Isaac - 19/01/2011 01:27:32 PM 914 Views
I read what you said & understood it as you restate here, hence I referenced local police (twice) Joel - 20/01/2011 02:15:17 AM 951 Views
The problem here is your ignoring normal policing powers to concoct an absurdity Isaac - 20/01/2011 04:20:25 PM 999 Views
More absurd than the notion such incitement warrants no notice? Joel - 20/01/2011 05:42:47 PM 1060 Views
really because people post that kind of crap daily and nothing happens random thoughts - 20/01/2011 05:57:52 PM 857 Views
I thought waterboarding was OK and any suggestion to the contrary was terrorist sympathizing. Joel - 20/01/2011 07:54:05 PM 809 Views
way to dodge the point again random thoughts - 20/01/2011 08:34:33 PM 818 Views
Do you have an example of a credible threat of injury to a Congressman, or calls for one? Joel - 20/01/2011 10:02:53 PM 901 Views
Your shifting your original premise, *again* Isaac - 20/01/2011 08:24:18 PM 884 Views
No, you're simply missing the point of it. Joel - 20/01/2011 11:09:57 PM 882 Views
There is no point Isaac - 21/01/2011 12:22:30 AM 929 Views
If I had no point I wouldn't bother, but fair enough. Joel - 21/01/2011 01:20:32 AM 1178 Views
Uh...Last I checked conservatives didn't list the Communist Manifesto as a favourite book. Dragonsoul - 16/01/2011 03:05:07 PM 1200 Views

Libs hate Mein Kampf and We the Living; conservatives hate the Communist Manifesto: He's neither. Joel - 16/01/2011 10:06:02 PM 901 Views

Yeah, your first was better Isaac - 16/01/2011 09:48:58 PM 815 Views
Again, I don't think Palin intended this, but Giffords feared ten months ago that this could result. Joel - 16/01/2011 11:29:19 PM 961 Views
And I call bullshit Cannoli - 18/01/2011 03:12:13 PM 1102 Views
If Palin wants to accuse Giffords of libel she should have the guts to do it to her face. Joel - 18/01/2011 10:39:07 PM 1059 Views
So if some jihadist shot Gifford, would you also blame Palin? Shannow - 19/01/2011 02:52:42 PM 943 Views
don't get ti doesn't matter who is to blame it just matters if they can use it *NM* random thoughts - 19/01/2011 04:11:09 PM 425 Views
No, I'd blame the shooter first and the mullahs shouting, "JIHAD111" second, as I always do. Joel - 20/01/2011 03:11:33 AM 1040 Views
Then why are you even here? I pretty much agree with you entirely and I'm fairly liberal. *NM* Elaine - 18/01/2011 01:16:33 PM 534 Views
Palin didn't really have anything to do with this, but it makes sense she's blamed. Tom - 16/01/2011 10:19:51 PM 878 Views
Pretty much. Joel - 16/01/2011 11:44:35 PM 963 Views
Did they ever catch the person(s) that vandalized Gifford's office? *NM* Tashmere - 17/01/2011 03:30:36 AM 448 Views
