It was the states-rights, small government party -- and even much of his own party (Whigs) -- that opposed abolition laws. Even Abe himself didn't seek out to be the one to get rid of slavery. I've read far too many Abe Lincoln biographies to accept a drive-by comment like this.

Actually John Kennedy was more like Abe Lincoln than what the current left stands for.

Irrelevant, Coadie (your middle name I think).

Actually what? And there's no comparison. It's disingenuous when modern political parties try to pull historic figures from other centuries "on their side."

Re: Light, J. D. and the left speak of Right wing

I did a job in a nurses house one time and she never had the tv on when her small children were there ,she said that it was because it causes ADD with the flashing screen etc. and said it never should be around children in the developmental years ( this was also backed up by a study at childrens hospital in Boston),in fact one of her fellow nurses was having trouble with her child with violence and they challenged her to get rid of the tv ,after being laughed at ,she told her what do you have to lose? The lady said fine and did it, within just a few short weeks her child was like a different child altogether,she was amazed.I have also had an unchurched university professor say to friends of mine, when they found out they didnt have a tv ,i thought we were the only weirdos that didnt have one.A lot of highly intellegent people never watch tv,including hollywood types,they simply dont have time and they know its a mind waster.

The connection can bee seen within worldly music too-- if you want to have that kind of conversation that incriminates heavy metal and rap as influencing mayhem.
It took only a few weeks in 2008 for the Abort Sarah Palin posters and bumper stickers to get circulation. Do your leftists understand that meant killing her?

Re: Light, J. D. and the left speak of Right wing

Leftist called for shooting of Republican 2 months ago.

JD why are your leftist palls so dangerous in their speech?

Quote:
American conservatives and Republicans because of supposedly irresponsible things said and written, they should pause and consider that one of their own, a liberal Democrat congressman, Paul Kanjorski, considered a close friend of both Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, had this to say in a newspaper interview back in October, shortly before he got his bcd kicked out of office after 26 years as a Pennsylvania prince of pork:
Quote:
"That Scott down there that's running for governor of Florida," Mr. Kanjorski said. "Instead of running for governor of Florida, they ought to have him and shoot him. Put him against the wall and shoot him. He stole billions of dollars from the United States government and he's running for governor of Florida. He's a millionaire and a billionaire. He's no hero. He's a ........ crook. It's just we don't prosecute big crooks."

Where is Light? He always has an opinion.

Re: Light, J. D. and the left speak of Right wing

That statement was so over the cuff that no one would have taken that serious.

No Republican talking heads have ever blatantly suggested for anyone to be killed.

So when you quote someone who makes a statement like that publicly, blatantly, it is understood that the speaker is not calling for the statement to be taken literally.



Yet, you have not addressed the rise in leftward thinking militias, violent in nature, that occasionally act out-- killing innocent people and their children ever so often, as they make a stand for their cause.


Oh! You haven't addressed this because THEY DON'T EXIST!

Over the last 20 years, we have seen a sharp rise in right-winged extremism, their groups, their vitriol, and their lash outs into society.

Vitriol spewing right winged talking heads contribute to their paranoia and anger throug their word choice as they present the facts and their opinions.
