Are You an Extremist?

If you believe the extreme partisan shill O'Reilly, who makes his bread selling confusion, you are out of your f*ing mind.

Re: morgan Oh, you're real rational, knucklehead. I'll bet you're a school dropout, anti-military, an occupier, have no job, just depend on government handouts to sustain you. Your mind is closed, and your a denier of obvious facts. You'll vote for Obama just to keep the govt largesse flowing to your corrupt lifestyle. You're a hedonistic liver-for-the-moment without a clue to what you'll do or how you'll live tomorrow. You take no responsibility for yourself, and you blame conservatives and the 1% for your miserable life. You've probably fathered bastard children for which you take no responsibility. You're the poster boy for what's wrong with America. I can't imagine why you even bother to read O'Reilly. Next, we'll hear about you shooting up some conservative storefront. Just butt out.

Re: Derel, heh heh....you got two right, LOL, I'm real and I'm rational. Which obviously can't be said about you, heh heh.

Stunning that you would call me a.... "hedonistic liver".

A 'liver'??

Actually Derel, I'm more kidney than liver and we kidneys tell silly little twits like you to grow up and piss off; and we call O'Reilly a partisan shill and those who believe him as out of their f*ing minds. It's just what we kidneys do.

Don't worry, one day you'll smarten up. Until then, get over it.

Re: Derely,

Dahyum Derel, I didn't congratulate you on how well you spew out O'Reilly's partisan drivel.

Quite in the manner of a barking seal.

He trained you real good. Now flap those flippers and bark like you're out of your f*ing mind.

"... except my want for a little more love in the world and tolerance to those who are different from ourselves."

Who wrote those noble words? Love, tolerance, how wonderful they look on the screen. How hard to apply to our daily lives, where the noble forget their Sunday sermonizing and call anyone with an opposing idea "out of their f*ing minds". Really raising the level of discourse over there. The phrase is so sweet, so apt, so...perfect, that the author uses it three times on this page. It would be funny, he can't be THAT mad at O'Reilly, except for the author of the noble quote above and the low-life cuss dropping f-bombs is the SAME GUY! Way to show tolerance and love, I mean you're really MODELING those qualities out there! Leaving skid marks of love and tolerance!

Find the gentle quote above in William Murchison's article from 31 Jul 2012 titled "How's About a Chicken Sandwich?".

We've either got a hypocrite or a lithium shortage on our hands.

Let's get substantive. Sorry Tom, substantive but not polite. You know me.

So here is one rebuttal to the un-illuminating trash peddled by O'Reilly, a guy who knows much better but just likes to make the sale (I suspect he's looking forward to lower and lower taxes on his own fortunes):

"—If you believe traditional marriage should be kept as the exclusive standard, you are not only extreme; you are a homophobe."

And, um, why not. Who are you to be sticking your snout into other people's intimate affairs? How about sticking to running your own life, which of course must be utterly exemplary. That would be the moderate approach.

"—If you believe all Americans should pay less in taxes, you are greedy and an anti-poor extremist."
Nope—caught you slithering through the slime you crave, O'Reilly. It's not about opposing the concept of paying less in taxes, it's about paying your fair share. Why should Romney with his millions be able to get away with paying 13% when all of the commoners have to pay so much more?

Let's get rid of government waste, of which there is way too much. We can all agree to that. While we're at it, let's get rid of all the tricks rich folks get to play to wiggle out of their obligation to support the system they used to get where they are. This especially applies to the very most skillful among us—those who were smart enough to be born into wealthy families—those who get to suck it without lifting a finger.

"—If you believe the Second Amendment gives Americans the right to buy and possess guns, you are promoting violence in an extreme way."

Gong. Cool—don't take my guns away. If the cops can't protect me from crime, don't rob me of my last chance to protect myself. But machine guns??? AK 47's??? Those are drugs and candy for the crazies. We don't need them, don't need to allow them to be sold. Only the NRA, one of the most frightening lobbies on the planet, thinks so, and only spine free phonies like you, who don't dare oppose them, acquiesce to their propaganda on that issue.

"—If you believe the government has a duty to combat overseas terrorists without giving them constitutional protections, you are an extreme anti-human rights individual."

Nobody has said that except O'Reilly as far as I can tell. What many have said is that we can't throw out the window our duty to make sure we are getting the right guys. If you think cops and soldiers always get it right, you have a lot to learn about life out there in the combat zone, which, of course, you have never gotten your comfy, money-padded butt anywhere close to.

"—If you believe abortion is the taking of a human life, you are an anti-woman extremist."

Yeah, right. Suggest you keep your trap shut on this issue since you don't personally have to suffer with the problem. Whether to bear a kid or not is just something you as a spectator will never be able to do anything other than comment on, and isn't that kind of talk infinitely cheap?

"—If you support securing the nation's borders and regulating immigration, you are anti-Hispanic."

Oh really, O'Reilly? Here's another make-believe outrage constructed for the purpose of selling you snake oil to fight it with. The issue is treating justly those we have enticed here to do the work no one else will do.

Strawberries rot in the fields because no one else will pick them when we stop the immigrants from coming here to pick them. Read the news. Your fight is with the agriculture industry, not with the “liberals.” It's the Ag industry that brings them here and wants them here. It can't survive without them. Be careful what you ask for, you may get it—fruit and veggies rotting on the vine, that is.

Cheers. Here's to greater illumination, truth searching, and learning to be fostered by political commentary. Most of the time, you won't find it in the products this guy offers up for sale.

Re: morgan Hey, knucklehead, "liver" as in someone who lives, or is that abstraction too much for your pinhead? Good luck to your liver and kidneys since you're probably drug-addled. A lot of you people appear to come from the occupiers whose minds are closed and are in denial to conservative analysis and truth-telling. Can't wait for winter to drive you off the streets into your cardboard boxes. Do you have the internet in them? All you nitwits can do is throw rocks, and you don't have any ideas or solutions you can suggest; just continue to be parasites on the body politic.

Re: Derel,
After reading the funnies, including your comments, it seems you strike out again.
Seems your definition of 'liver' is too abstract for anyone....except Derel.
High school drop out Derel?
Hint: check a dictionary....a liver is a glandular organ or dinner, if you have onions and bacon.
Hey Derel, saying "you people"...that's not pc, Derel.
Usually when someone uses that expression they are talking about those they either fear or don't understand.
You may not understand me Derel, but you never have to fear me, by choice not chance.
You just keep making it up as you go along Derel and maybe someday someone will be even more confused than you and actually believe your BS.
And thanks for making my point, boy...anyone who listens to the partisan shill O'Reilly is out of his f*ing mind. "A liver"....LOL.

Lets get something straight on the gun issue. You are not allowed to buy machine guns, machine pistols, or fully automatic rifles. You are allowed to own AK-47's as long as they fire one shot with one trigger pull. A rifle like this is worlds above a handgun if the situation were to arise you would need to defend your home against looters or rioters. Shooting deaths caused by fully automatic guns are so small that the number is statistically insignificant. These guns are not the problem the lamestream media labels them to be. Also on the tax issue. No one really knows how much Romney or anyone really pays in taxes because the tax code is so confusing. Its over 70,000 pages long. Tax reform is desperatly needed. Of course, reforming the tax code would go against this crazy "no new tax pledge" which is stupid. We are overtaxed as a society, but this pledge keeps many of the loopholes that allow some companies to pay a 0% tax rate, then get tax refunds.

Re: Tom

What are you here for, bro? Polite conversation?
Lithium or hypocrite? Passive aggressive? Out of your f*ing mind?
Or a place to vent your anger?

Noble and low life cussing, Sunday sermonizing...you lay claim to all kinds of expectations of others including expecting you're in polite company...what a dichotomy for you. What a conundrum. Here's a quick fix. What a load of shit.

I don't tolerate fools, Tom. Tolerate one and they spread like cockroaches. Before you know it, more skid marks, more shit peddlers like the extreme partisan shill O'Reilly pandering his BS to his trusting audience, making his living as a shit peddler of lies to ensure he keeps his 1% status and that he keeps his 99 percenters confused, ignorant and our of their f*ing mind.

You call it as you see it...lithium or hypocrite. I call it as I see it... out of your f*cking mind.

Tom, me thinks you are not quite fair to Morgan, though I have to say we in the low life crowd could all use some toning down. Not sure at all about the lithium or hypocrisy stuff--that seems a bit self-righteous to me. The most venom I see in these posts is from Señor Schrock, about whom you are silent, and who seems clearly to be off the rez and shooting mostly at a mirror he's looking into without really understanding what he's doing.

There is a principle in the law that says public figures have to stand up to a little more abuse than we normal mortal folks--hence all the acid cocktails you see thrown in the face of our president just about every day that seem to have become part of the norm. I think that goes to commentary generally as well. O'Reilly fancies himself to be in the big leagues, and I'm sure his cash register confirms his status there. So he can live with some acidity in commentary from us, the grains of sand among the masses.

Thanks for you comments about guns. I'll reply to that shortly, once I've gotten a good dose of lithium...

Its funny that BOR wrote this column, yet has labeled Ron Paul as "extremist" many times. RP has more fiscal sense in his small toe that BOR could ever hope to have.
