Finally, an enthusiastic Romney endorsement.
Posted: Apr 20, 2012
and all the gun huggers in the Romney stump speech/NRA audience nodded their heads and applauded in unison. The candidate tried to dance around Nugent's reference to a recent conversation they had where Mitt assured him he would protect all guns and hold the 2nd Amendment above all others while failing to directly address the "metaphoric" violence-laced endorsement. All GOP leaders, officials, pundits and supporters followed suit and heaved a collective "no biggie" sigh of indifference as nary-a-one of them had the political courage or ethical fortitute to denounce the highly offensive nature of the rhetoric.
Now that the filthy draft dodger (who showed up at the draft board packing poop in his pants), family values deadbeat baby daddy of 8 and self-confessed pedophile has been released from Secret Service oversight, some of those same emboldened supporters have taken to this board to indignantly denounce the near-identical kind of metaphoric rhetoric used at a Wisconsin rally while smearing the speakers from here to kingdom come. The rally was held only 3 days after Nugent's appalling remarks were plastered all over the media, leading any rational person to conclude that there was a "what's good-for-the-goose-is-good-for-the-gander" intent behind the speaker's intent. Evidently, this tongue-in-cheek political parody flew right over their heads and they are now left choking on a dose of their own medicine.
These ridiculous and stunning displays of hypocritic hubris are becoming all too commonplace on this forum but, last time I checked, ALL PARTIES INVOLVED (AFL-CIO speakers included) enjoy the same 1st Amendment rights under the Constitution, as has been affirmed by the Secret Service investigation determination. I am left scratching my head and at a loss to comprehend exactly how this highly-evolved GOP double standard stuff is supposed to work.

So today we have - one semitoothless
[ In Reply To ..]hillbilly wanting to chop people's heads off and a report about a network exec wanting to defame a man who luckily surived the nazis and came to U.S. willing to spend his money for the betterment of the country. That is just today's conservative news. What a fabulous bunch of folks. I could nevah nevah be a conservative, I like humans too much.
I could nevah, nevah be a Lib/Dem/Priog - No respect for human life
[ In Reply To ..]Okay to kill babies in the millions, but OMG make a comment someone doesn't like, unless it is Bill the Pig Maher, Ed the Pig Shultz, George Stephanopolous, Biden, Obama, call out the National Guard.
until you acknowledge - that
[ In Reply To ..]you understand it is AGAINST THE LAW to kill babies, I'm out of this convers.
As long as the baby was BORN in this country - sm
[ In Reply To ..]then it will be against the law to kill the baby. If it can be delivered and is viable, that means the baby was born, and to kill that baby is against the Constitution. But the Constitution is very clear that "person" is "persons born or naturalized in the United States."
At the moment, abortion is legal. However, the goofballs on the SCOTUS could very well make abortion illegal, along with contraception pills, etc.
The point is that it IS legal, and if you don't believe in abortion, then don't have one. But don't pretend that you've walked in the shoes of anyone who is pregnant, is considering an abortion, etc.
These cases are between the women and their God (or whatever "god" they believe in), and to declare a few cells a BABY, is totally off the wall.
I guess the best bet is to keep my nose out of others' personal problems.
bitter clingers - goldie
[ In Reply To ..]There were so many lovely descriptive words in your post. So, can we assume you're not a Ted Nugent fan? Just kidding. I'm wondering, though, where this thought came from: "some of those same emboldened supporters have taken to this board to indignantly denounce the near-identical kind of metaphoric rhetoric"
I read a little down the board and I'm not able to find anyone being an "emboldened supporter" of Ted. ?? I can't find a post supporting his rant. First Amendment rights are one thing, but if they become threats (like Ted and the AFL-CIO), it's a cause for concern. With that same line of thinking, one could certainly throw this back at the liberals and ask: where's the outrage of the vile rhetoric coming from the AFL-CIO leader? I'm not seeing on the board. Did I miss it? Oops, do you think it went over my head? I did notice the 2 "dislikes" and that tells me that some people on this board will not denounce that rhetoric and actually suport it. THAT, to me, is frightening.
As for your condescendingly remarks, "...leading any rational person...flew right over their heads..." Seriously?? I can assure you that I am very rational person and absolutely nothing flew over my head. Oh, and I'm not choking on a dose of anything.
So, having the "political courage or ethical fortitute to denounce" I guess that would apply to the $1million Obama PAC donor and so-called "comedian" Bill Mahr? Still waiting for the Dem leadership to show, as you say, the political courage or ethical fortitute to denounce his disgusting comments. (insert crickets here)
And by the way, I applaud Romney for supporting our 2nd Amendment rights. I guess, as Obama would say, I'm just one of those bitter clingers.
Regarding second amendment rights,,, - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I 100% support the right to bears arms and most of the people from my very liberal state would be "up in arms" if our guns were taken away. I personally own an old Remington rifle in excellent working conditon and my sons say I am a dead-eye. However, we don't see the need for people to bear AK-47's.
Not referring to Nugent supporters. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]rather to the GOP raging rants denouncing identical remarks made by Wisconsin rally speakers in the not-your-father's-union thread.
Did you miss it? Evidently, since you are trying to take this down a side street to avoid the content of the ORIGINAL chop-their-heads-off metaphor and the endorsed candidate's nonresponse to it. Of course, we all know Nugent's allusions to violence and just pure vile were not confined to that one remark, nor even to that one occasion. There was that suck and ride my machine gun porno reference not too long ago as well. I do find it interesting that you take issue with my alleged word choice when all I am doing is repeating what Nugent said and how he has proudly described himself in the past. Fact remains that Romney is so desperate for endorsements, he is willing to pretend those things never happened, despite the preponderance of video records, and chooses rather to pander to the NRA clinger base, while inadvertently leaving the dog-whistles hanging out to dry.
That "2 dislikes" red herring is too weak to merit further comment. Neither does the predictable stab you make at the Bill Mahr highjack. Corrent me if I'm wrong here, but I can't recall any of his comments ever rising to the level of flirting with the treasonous felony of inciting violence and veiling threats on the life of a sitting president. When was the last time the Secret Service called him in for an interview? Tell ya what. I'll renounce the AFL-CIO speaker's PARODY the moment I see GOP leaders, officials, pundits and supporters renounce the original comments and obvious target of the parody.
BTW, we've already seen what happens when democrats renounce allegedly unacceptable rhetoric as recently as the prior week when they immediately addressed Rosen's more benign NONVIOLENT word choice. As I recall, that was characterized as "throwing Hilary Rosen under the bus," among other things. When the GOP tries to drum up phoney outrage (and we all know just how phoney it was, now that Ann Rommey has been outted for loving that early birthday present so much), no apology is good enough to ever suffice.
No one, including myself, is faulting your choice to be a bitter clinger, and you very well know it. This is about violent rhetoric, unbridled GOP hypocrisy and double standards as displayed right in front of our eyes here on this forum.
this exemplifies how out of touch Romney is - ...and how oblivious
[ In Reply To ..]It's a pity. We have a country full of bright, innovative people, and this is the best we can come up with.
Sounds like Obama and Biden you're describing - nm
