More Moonbattery

"Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." Matthew 7:20

I really don't have time to post a comment today, but I was just thinking about how the Liberals say they support the troops, and it made me check out a few Liberal blogs, specifically the posts made on November 11th, Veterans Day. I figure if they really do support the troops, as they say, there should be some very moving tributes to our veterans posted on them.

What a surprise! None of them had tributes to veterans. Most of them were rants expressing their hatred of George W Bush, although one did mention Veterans Day, in a rant about how Bush has so badly treated veterans.

I don't know. Maybe they just honor the veterans in some special way only Liberals can appreciate.

I'll leave my readers to draw their own conclusions.

Here is another "troop supporting" Liberal's response to a college freshman who had innocently invited him to her campus event to hear from Iraq War hero Lt. Col. Scott Rutter.

The freshman was new student Rebecca Beach, and she was trying to drum up a bit of interest in her event which would feature the War On Terror vet. Here is the entire response she received from John Daly, English prof.:

November 13, 2005

Dear Rebecca:

I am asking my students to boycott your event. I am also going to ask others to boycott it. Your literature and signs in the entrance lobby look like fascist propaganda and is extremely offensive. Your main poster "Communism killed 100,000,000" is not only untrue, but ignores the fact that CAPITALISM has killed many more and the evidence for that can be seen in the daily news papers. The U.S. government can fly to dominate the people of Iraq in 12 hours, yet it took them five days to assist the people devastated by huricane Katrina. Racism and profits were key to their priorities. Exxon, by the way, made $9 Billion in profits this last quarter--their highest proft margin ever. Thanks to the students of WCCC and other poor and working class people who are recruited to fight and die for EXXON and other corporations who earning megaprofits from their imperialist plunders. If you want to count the number of deaths based on political systems, you can begin with the more than a million children who have died in Iraq from U.S.-imposed sanctions and war. Or the million African American people who died from lack of access to healthcare in the US over the last 10 years.

I will continue to expose your right-wing, anti-people politics until groups like your won't dare show their face on a college campus. Real freedom will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors and fight for just causes and for people's needs--such freedom fighters can be counted throughout American history and they certainly will be counted again. (emphasis mine)

Prof. John Daly


Yeah, Liberals are real compassionate folks, aren't they?

Note: I've added comment moderation. If your comments don't show up right away it is because I have to approve them before they post. I regret having to do this but recent comments have been meaner and ruder than usual and I am tired of putting up with them.

First of all, I want to apologize for my failure to make a special mention in my Nov. 11 post on my blog for Remembrance Day (as it is called here in Canada). That is a gross oversight on my part, which I deserve to be called out on. It had nothing to do with disrespect for the troops that have served my country so well over the years, and the ones now in Afghanistan. I certainly did wear my poppy for two weeks leading up to that day. Because I write my posts late in the evening, I tend to focus on ideas or events and sometimes forget about the significance of the day itself. My omission is inexcusable, and I thank you for bringing up the topic.

As for Prof. Daly, he's way out there. He doesn't represent mainstream liberal thought any more than David Duke represents conservatives. He was denounced by his school, and hopefully will face discipline. (Not necessarily for the sentence that you emphasized, as distasteful as many would find it, but more for the threatening sentence that preceded it.)

Mark said...

I heard the school didn't denounce him, rather, they cited his right to free speech in defending him. But if I'm wrong about that, I will stand corrected.

By the way, I'm really pissed at Liberals right now, so I am grateful to you that you stayed respectful, Jay.

Mike's America said...

Yes it's free speech when liberals deny speech to others. So much for tolerance and diversity.

Universities have long ago lost the luster of places where the free exchange of ideas is encouraged. They have become one of the last refuges for a singular ideology that seeks to intimidate and silence all opposition.

Lone Ranger said...

This nut has never had a real job. Thanks to tenure, he's been isolated on campus his entire adult life. It IS true that Communism has slaughtered over 100 million people. It's all detailed in the book, "The Big Black Book of Communism." These liberals live in an alternate reality.

Pamela Reece said...

I saw the young student who was planning this event on Fox last night. She showed no anger but I could see the disappointment in her eyes. Disappointment that the very faculty students look to for education and guidance. What she got was childish name-calling. When asked if she was going to sue she calmly said, "Sue? No." She looked astonished as if such a thought would never enter her mind. This liberal's antics back-fired on him. Who's getting all the positive publicity... she is.

Yeah, liberals are real compassionate alright. Not.

Calling for the execution of ANYONE should be a criminal offense.....Calling for our troops to execute their CO's is even worse.

This is similar (but worse) than yelling "fire in a crowded theatre", and there is no way this POS should be walking around freely today.

But he is "Mainstream in Liberalville".

Erudite Redneck said...

The call for fragging was way out of line. The rest of it, not so much.

Erudite Redneck said...

So you ARE a hypocrite!

From your own fingers (Oct. 13!):

"I always allow comments no matter how inane and insane. I talk about issues involving freedom of speech, guaranteed to us by the Constitution, and I think if I censor or delete anyone's comments, than I would be a hypocrite."

Wait. You'll probably say I took this out of context. ...

You should always do what you want with this place. But I hope you've learned your lesson about making rash, blanket assertions and declarations about others.

You don't seem even to take them seriously when you make them about yourself.

ER, I was in a bad mood when some very rude comments were posted on here. I am better now, but when someone comes in here just to insult and doesn't add anything to the discussion, I may go ahead and allow the comment or I may not depending on my mood.

Just as you came in here just to attack me for something I said over a month ago. if I was still mad, I would have deleted that comment. I'm not mad now. Your blog thread gave me a chance to vent.

Erudite Redneck said...

Dude, if you think that was an attack, when it was just me pointing out a jarring inconsistency between your words and your actions, well, I don't know what to say about it. Had I meant to attack you, I would have, well, attacked!

Sheesh.

Poison Pero said...

ER is right Mark about your censorship.

You really should get rid of the word verification and stop censoring all the nuts spamming for penis pumps, etc........LOL:)

tugboatcapn said...

Mark, over the past month/month and a half, I have read on lefty blogs everything from "The Government should re-instate the draft, so that some rich Republican kids can start getting killed in this conflict", to "The soldiers in the feild should start fragging their superior officers" to "We need more troops in the feild" to "We need to bring all the troops home imediately."

To ER now, calling you a hypocrite for changing your mind about allowing all comments, no matter how vile and vulgar.

Don't pay it any attention. Any of it.

The vote on Friday in the House was 403 to 3 to leave the troops in Iraq.

The Moonbats can howl all they want.

When the rubber meets the road, all they care about is politics, and returning themselves to power.

Erudite Redneck said...

I did NOT call Mark a hypocrite. OK, I did. But I did so echoing his OWN previous self-description if he were to delete comments he didn't like.

I stand by my assertion:

The fact that Mark, rightly or wrongly, changed his mind about himself and what he can tolerate calls into question the blanket statements and assertions he makes about others.

The point is that he should be careful with ALL such blanket declarations!

NONE of us are *that* dang sure about ourselves even, so to pretend to be so sure about others opens anyone up to a charge of ... thoughtless ranting, if nothing else.

Mike's America said...

If a student called for murder to advance their political agenda, that student would be expelled immediately. Why this has not been done in the case of Daly, who we now learn is a member of the communist group ANSWER is a travesty.

Also, can any of your readers name ONE example of conservatives attempting to shout down or shut up liberals on a college campus?

This is just the latest egregious example of how liberals and socialists who will do or say anything to advance their empty, dangerous ideology.

Nazi Germany started when violence and murder were advocated as tools to achieve and hold power.

Mark said...

I am not sure that the implication of equating Liberal ideology with naziism, is accurate or appropriate here.

That said, he DID call the student fascist, though, didn't he?

Of course, that is allowed from Liberals. It is only Conservatives that are not allowed to suggest that Liberals are anything but made in God's image.
