Are you kidding me? I wonder how 9/12 will go. Though this act didn't really surprise me.

Whether we have righties throwing punches (Miami)or lefties throwing punches (St. Louis), or whether we have lefties biting fingers off, everybody needs to chill just a bit. Have an passionate debate, for crying out loud, without the violence. That goes for everybody.

There's some maniac who has been banned here, and at many other blogs, who switches IP numbers and screen names as quickly as the armies of spammers. He comes in lately accusing me of being a follower of some person I never heard of... before it was accusing me of being a felon/CIA plant... and he just is having a ball here lately... and other places he finds me. My very own stalker!
Now, he wants to make it look as though he's been censored for the content of his comments... which is true insofar as he's told lies, hijacked threads, and generally tried to think of ways to be as disagreeable about it as possible, but using more than one screen name and switching IPs to get around bans or moderation.
Anyway, he goes in bursts of caffeine or speed where he does a bunch of different names and IPs, pooping all over Brad Blog and I just delete his stuff when I delete the spam that got past the filters because he's been banned.
Smear me all you want if you haven't been banned.

decades of media consolidation by the murdochs and scaifes have given us this.
PANIC over reforming something that needs it.
TERROR at the thought of kids having to listen to their president make a speech.
OUTRAGE that government officials should be held accountable for just following orders, that broke the law.
the fairness doctrine did something and now we know what, and why it was so important for them to kill it.
they hated the media, so they bought it and made it worthless AND poisonous to consume.
no one would ever believe it if it ever told the truth again.
so now they OWN a giant broken impotent uber-lying-machine so incompetent it couldn't even keep a black man from becoming president in maybe the most racist nation on the globe. their party is popular in about 5 states and shrinking and their leaders are mostly: confirmed bachelors or divorcees, talk show hosts or half term also ran governors...
their ideas cannot survive on a level playing field with science and reason.
violence is all they have left and they keep saying so.
fairness doctrine
revoke licenses
FCC with teeth not a leash
they are a perpetual minority party with the majority of the air time because they had the money and the cronies on the inside who had no problem smothering old man media in his bed. why air both sides of an issue? that's for weaklings..

The funny thing is the anti-socialized medicine guy that had his finger bit off, had it fixed with socialized medicine (medicare)
The irony hurts

Hysterical. One of your ilk gnaws off a man's finger and you wonder if there aren't any adult Republicans around.

Um, did you actually bother to read the story that I linked to on that RH?
My guess is no. Or, you just don't give a damn.
And for Damail: Congrats on the moral equivalence there. No, "both sides" are not equally responsible here. And suggesting as much, doesn't make it so. Sorry, sweetheart.

Once again, Friedman, you are utterly wrong. The left has a history of violence that washes all over its protests. Books like "Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild" documents that fact. And go call somebody else "sweetheart". I've got one sweetheart in my life, and it ain't you.

E.J. Dionne on CNN just got done pointing out what should be painfully obvious to anybody who is paying attention: These scuffles and shouting matches at the town hall meetings are anamolies. Most of the town hall meetings have exhibited passion, robust debate, and heartfelt questions being asked - from both supporters and opponents.

Damail: you present ridiculous arguments. Where is your proof that the "left" is as violent or has as much hate speech as the "right"?
You take one snippet of Mike Malloy, and project the entire "left" has as much hate speech.
Here's an entire website, not one snippet, documenting rightwing hate speech:
http://mediamatters.org/
Please provide PROOF backing what you are saying, not just "saying it".

"MICHELLE MALKIN!..."
That's right. Michelle Malkin. And her book provides full documentation about how the radical left - that's more specific, you happy now, Dan? - is hate-filled and violent-prone.
And I gave SEVERAL snippets of Mike Malloy, Randi Rhodes and Sam Seder, along with audio links to their swill.

Several snippets ain't enough! We're talking decades of AM dominated hate radio! vs. some "snippets".
Check this out, do you ever see a hatewinger apologizing like this?
White House adviser sorry for calling Republicans 'assholes'

The other day, some Republican refused to apologize for saying Obama should be tagged like game!

Comment #22...Big Dan...
I gotta disagree with you....Republicans do apologize...
to Rush Limbaugh.
When some GOPer dares to stray from the GOP talking points and lying propaganda . Limbaugh publicly spanks them and makes them apologize.
They then quickly apologize and kiss Limbaugh's ring.
Like good little programmed automatons.

as for the lucky 65 yearold Im glad he is ok. but the rest of the retoric on this site is a bunch of crap. public radio is the only way real americans can get their point of view out its not only rep. or dems. its americans point of view. when our leaders lie to us we have only one recorse to tell the truth the only way we can. the majority in the house and senate will probably pass the socialistic big government leftist agenda. but in 2010 the dems will pay for it with their jobs. the GOP will take back the house and senate and repeal this crap and get it right. also three cheers for rep. joe wilson for calling the dems leader what he really is!!!
