Any news that could destroy Conservatives has to be reported as the Left hates the Right more then it hates Evil. That's a fact.
I find nothing of horror about this. 1 person runs over another because they didn't vote... well guess what...
307,999,998 did not run someone over because they did not vote for someone of their political persuasion.
The right didn't say that the Left were going to kill president Bush after the 04' election because of all the hate that the Left was displaying, but that didn't stop artistic license on the left from making a documentary entertaining the notion.

A "Conservative" is someone who is deranged and unhinged.
What is a liberal?
Someone who deranged and unhinged in a different direction

My point exactly.
Seriously, the US liberal/conservative debate on WP probably reduces the average IQ on the entire forum by 10 points...
Grade school food fights have higher intellectual content...
They do NOT!

Otherwise the hysterics and emotional gymnastics are spot on.

Rightists like me take great pride in our evilness.

I’m happy to see you all think we’re dangerous. That can be of use to our cause.

The problem is the right won't acknowledge that whack-job right-wing cultists like Glenn Beck, Alex Jones, Ted Nugent, etc... who constantly moan about how Obama is evil incarnate, a secret Muslim Atheist Maoist who is going take away people's guns, impose martial law, and ship conservative dissenters to FEMA re-education camps are in fact dangerous. For anyone actually believes "freedom is at stake" what other option is there but to "strike first" and take out the President before it's too late? Also, it only takes one to do the good deed.
Apparently the right-wing plutocracy thinks stirring up this kind of Frankenstein bat-shit paranoia is a winning strategy against the creeping powers that want to redistribute some of their wealth in order to prevent the jobless from starving on the streets. You know, the father Koch was a rabid anti-communist and founder of the John Birch Society. The two sons along with their pals Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdock believe the only way to prevent America from becoming a "European Welfare State" (putting their personal fortunes in jeopardy) is to drum up a new wave of Red Scare for the lemmings to consume.

So we don't criticize the president lest a fundamentalist takes it too far?
I don't understand what your saying. What "rhetoric" do you wish toned down?
We've had two of our last major shootings be non-ideological but aching to prove that most of your notions of the Right being extremist are true, you liberals have tied it immediately without an ounce of evidence to the tea party or the right wing and our "hate machine" known as Fox.

People should criticize the president all they want - Obama or anyone else who holds the office. Almost no one should think any president 100% perfect, and voicing our criticisms is a healthy thing in a free society.
However, there are criticisms that are based in reality, and then there are made up conspiracy theories that have nothing to do with anything except trying to stir up hatred. Things like Obama (is a / wants to) muslim, take guns, socialist, kenyan, shaira law advocate, etc etc. etc. where there's absolutely no evidence for any of it.
The fact is that if Romney had won the floors of this forum would be knee deep in liberal tears.
There would have been thread after thread with pages and pages of how the sky is going to fall.
Even over one year before the elections they cried rivers over each potential republican candidate.

And you know something? Despite being a right wing zealot, old man Koch had still built a nuclear plant for Joseph Stalin. I guess his political ideology went out the window when dollar signs came up.

what % of the GOP claims any of those things or cares for them?
Obama does want to take our guns, just because he hasn't gotten around to half of the things he'd like to get to does not mean he has no intention on limiting firearm ownership, and certainly raising tighter enforcement of current laws to achieve that.
Were any of the criticisms of Bush as Hitler part II taken in the same light? No, we understood it for what it was: a degrading insult. I don't agree when either side engages in it, but we are always viewed as having malicious intent, while those making the charge excuse their side of it.

Since when does Obama want to take your guns? That is, outside of Rush Limbaugh's and Glenn Beck's fevered imaginations.

The thing is the Glenn Beck crap and conservative fear in general is so insane it doesn't make any sense at all. Liberals protest an unpopular war with comparisons to fascism. Right wing nut-jobs protest government healthcare as either "fascist" or "communist". Okay, that must mean every other developed country in the world is "fascist" or "communist" because they aren't backwards enough to be like the US and deny critical healthcare to those who can't afford it.
Also, the nut-job fear is not simply about being against restrictions on firearms. It's the belief that restricting firearms is a hidden agenda to make it easier for the federal government to come in and march all the unarmed conservatives off to UN re-education camps. Sorry, but there is no equivalent on the left end of the spectrum to the completely stupid, irrational, and idiotic bat-shit insanity of the far right. Sorry if it hurts your feelings but there just isn't an equivalent. You'd have to go to China and find some dangerous screw-ball Maoists to match the level of stupid irrational insanity in the American far right. American conservatism is severe aberration to everyone else in the world.

From what I understand, it was the experience of working in the communist USSR and seeing the results of said communism up close and personal that turned Koch Sr. into the right wing activist he became, to prevent the spread of such a destructive ideology to the US.

He was quite the gun control supporter before he became a serious presidential contender, even voting for unconstitutional complete handgun bans during his stint in Illinois. Given his now well known ability to change his spots to whatever is most politically advantageous at the time, perhaps he really doesn't care one way or the other and simply adopts the position that will get him the most votes where he's currently running, but the idea that he's severely anti gun didn't come from nowhere, but is based on his personal statements and voting record.
Personally, I'm not worried, as second term president or not he still has to worry about the rest of his party, and America as a whole still doesn't care for gun control. I think he's a lot of things, many of them uncomplimentary, but stupid isn't one of them.
