Back to the Future

Reviving the Barrett Report. The Civil War left. Payback time: Day two. Driving like snails. Plus much more.

(Page 3 of 14)

/p> p>This incident brings us face-to-face with deranged paranoia fueled by irrational hatred. The fringe Left has never let the facts get in the way of fomenting contempt for their political enemies but these folks are really beginning to scare me. Now they assume that an unfortunate accident that befell one of their own had to be the result of some sinister conspiracy plot concocted by demented right-wingers? Anyone this delusional should be considered unstable and a threat to others. To think these people represent a well-financed and mobilized partisan voting bloc is indeed a chilling thought. Instead of being sedated and confined to rooms with padded walls, these individuals are free to enter voting booths to select leaders who share their paranoid vision for America. Even if were possible for them to exorcize the demon of conservatism, how would they contend with the problems in the world they wrought, one that contains only people like themselves? Who would they then blame for things that go wrong when supposedly there is no longer anyone left to hate or be suspicious of? If they truly believe that purging the world of all perceived threats to their ideology will lead to heaven on earth, they are crazier than I initially thought. br> -- Rick Arand br> Lee's Summit, Missouri /p>

Shawn Macomber wrote a good article in "Mugged by Reality." I would only add two points to the liberal wish to matter: First, until this incident I did not even know who Randi Rhodes and Jon Elliott were -- although I think I have heard Rush mention Randi Rhodes before.

p>Second, when Air America went bankrupt, I did not know they remained on the air in New York. I guess being part of the vast right-wing conspiracy, I should be more aware of these little voices with great pretensions on the extreme left. br> -- Jack A. Summers br> Detroit, Michigan /p>

Considering that a Hillary Clinton Administration would likely be drawn from a pool of such deranged, sick, hate-filled, devout believers, as presented by Shawn Macomber, "Mugged by Unreality" might become their de-facto motto.

Hillary would have to increase her reliance on her copy of the FBI files (remember them?) in an attempt to silence her critics through coercion and similar persuasion.

Neither Bill nor Hillary ever understood that only by the 'grace' (inappropriate use of the word) of the MSM, with not a little help from Sandy Berger and Company, did their political life survive.
