I found this in the comments section of an article on the Tea Party movement.

I am a conservative. I believe in:
Conserving the environment
Conserving a woman’s right to choose
Conserving the quality of life for the middle class
Conserving the rights of all people to live the life they choose with whom they choose in the way they choose
Conserving your right to believe in God and my right to deny god
Conserving my right to pursue a long and healthy life
Conserving the infrastructure that made this nation great.
I believe in paying my taxes, all of them.
I do not believe in loopholes, corporations having the rights of individual humans, congress having more access to health care than the poorest of the poor
Because I am a conservative.
Tea Party “conservatism” is not conservative; it is reactionary and racist.

Douchebag.

YouTube – Unruly Republicans Disrupt Health Care Debate

…it’s pathetic, really, truly, in a “Look at the rabbits, Lenny” kind of way, how now, with Ted Kennedy dead and the Chappaquiddick arrows gone, Coulter’s quiver of reference points is getting emptier and emptier. All she’s really got left is passive aggressive Bill Clinton sex remarks. Reading her columns these days, now that she’s been out-batshitted by Glenn Beck and out-babed by Sarah Palin, is not unlike listening to a toothless meth addicted woman at a bar tell you how hot she used to be and won’t you please let her suck your dick for a dollar.

Go. Read. Laugh: The Rude Pundit

Yeah, the trauma of 9/11 made some on the left go a little nuts. It also made a lot of folks on the right go nuts in different ways, and eight years later we’re still stuck in two wars as a result. But the whole Obama “birther” thing is a different kettle of fish insofar as the only “trauma” these people seem to have suffered is living to see the day a black man got elected President.

It never ends.

The New York Times publishes over 600 words on Joe Wilson’s “you lie” outburst, without ONCE pointing out that Obama was telling the truth.

MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell spent an entire segment on the incident and never got around to telling her viewers who was right.

This is how conservatives dominate the media. They can make any claim they want, and it’s basis in fact will never be questioned or countered. The press will simply go to the Democrats, ask for a comment, and report it without actually informing their readers/audience who is telling the truth.

Glenn Beck has no bloody clue what a “coup” is. Though his process of stringing together inflammatory words isn’t dependent upon accuracy and intellectual honesty.

Sarah Palin + Glenn Beck 4-ever!

The biggest joke in American politics wholeheartedly embraces the biggest joke on American TV.

I’m salivating at the prospects. Keep an eye on this is one, folks.

It’s no secret that Fox News is completely devoid of any semblance of impartiality (or even actual journalism.) They’re not even trying anymore, really. What’s worse, is that they seem to be deliberately misinforming their viewership in order to advance the Republican agenda. For Pete’s sake, study done in 2006 determined that a majority of Fox News viewers believed Saddam Hussein had something to do with 9/11!

A new NBC/Wall Street Journal poll contained some pretty basic questions about the ongoing health care debate. Interestingly however, it also included a few questions about statements that are known to be false, just to see how many people out there actually believe these falsehoods.

Quoth News Corpse:

These are statements that are known to be untrue, yet Fox News viewers believe them in overwhelming numbers. It’s bad enough that approximately 40% of MSNBC/CNN viewers believe these myths, but clearly Fox is producing an audience of vastly misinformed, cultural illiterates.

Questions dealt with whether the Obama administration’s health care reforms will:

• give coverage to illegal immigrants (it won’t, in fact there is language in the bill that specifically denies coverage to undocumented immigrants),
• will lead to a government take-over (I wish, but it’s simply not the case),
• has provisions to use taxpayer money to pay for abortions (it doesn’t; I have no idea where this horseshit came from, there’s NOTHING in the bill about paying for abortions).

Overwhelmingly, Fox News viewers believed these items that are verifiably untrue. A disappointing number of CNN & MSNBC viewers believed them as well, which shows that Fox News doesn’t have the market cornered on conservative misinformation in the media.
