The DU d'RAT Review

I created this blog as a response to the hypocrisy, nastiness, and negativity at Democratic Underground. The D'RATS do not allow disagreement on their site; they demand their posters tout their party line word-for-word. Any poster who does not march in lockstep is immediately banned. Their cowardice in this, and their calumny towards America's leaders, will not go unanswered as I address the issues of the day--and one of the most negative, detrimental influences in the blogosphere.

Don't let the pile on your head teeter and tilt. Hard to drive with all those hats slidding over your nose! LOL!
Congrats to Sarah, and welcome little Christopher!

Are you close with your niece so that you'll get to spend plenty of time with the baby?

If I remember right Randy Rhodes (could have been another lefty twit) was engaging in an all-out assault on OUR troops in Guantanamo Bay. The horror of a human being was calling them every name she could use on the radio and was part of a coordinated lefty assault on Gitmo.
I'll bet everyone remembers that?

So I called on my cell phone to explain the facilities-I've been there twice-and I wanted to make these points:
1. The fact that the Islamic creatures were already getting "culturally sensitive" meals and were allowed to pray numerous times per day.
2. They WERE NOT being tortured much to my chagrin.
3. The Koran flushing incident was PROBABLY a leftist stalking horse to drum up outrage.
4. Last but not least the real reason the political left HATES Gauntanamo Bay as a holding facility for these monsters is that it puts them legally out of reach of the communist and anarchist lawyers of the ACLU!

So I sat on hold for two hours and listened to Rhodes take a total of three calls, all leftist America haters, and man oh man were they ever DUMB! What a bunch of stupid, conspiratorial dolts! I stayed on the line hoping to get my two cents in since the call screener kept assuring me that I was the "next caller" and Randy LOVES "dissenting views." LOL!

Needless to say they NEVER took my call, only three dumb leftists.

In a nutshell leftist talk radio fails because it's intellectually vacuous. When ONE regular conservative like myself can utterly destroy a stupid line of discussion, it's obvious that the leftists cannot succeed on the radio.

So what's the Stalinist solution to being beat on the radio? SHUT DOWN THE OPPOSITION! The masks are off folks, the left is populated by a large contingent of Stalinists. As good Christians might say, "you will know them by their deeds."

If a politician wants to institute the "Fairness Doctrine" you know that person is a Stalinist. We have to start calling these totalitarians by their real names. They care not a WHIT for the 1st Amendment. If you are FOR the "Fairness Doctrine" you are AGAINST free speech.

Anonymous said...: Yes, Morgan, sometimes I listen to Air (fair) America when I drive. You need to know how the other side thinks to be able to combat them.

I am consistently amazed how they and we can look at the same thing and see a different picture. Though I feel that "they" look at the bad side on purpose.; 8:16 AM
Anonymous said...: Morgan,
How did you get to Gitmo? You said you were there twice. If you mean you were there when you were in the Navy, that isnt the same 'Gitmo'. There is Guantanamo and there is the detention facility there that was started after the war in Afghanistan.
Just curious how an 'average' Republican can get to Gitmo twice.; 10:30 AM
Anonymous said...: Morgan, One more thing. You like the term Stalinist but I am curious as to what your definition is.
Here is one:
"It includes an extensive use of propaganda to establish a personality cult around an absolute dictator, as well as extensive use of the secret police to maintain social submission and silence political dissent."

Now, my question is this: Just who comes closest to this definition on the left? And who comes closest on the rite?; 11:11 AM

Anonymous said...: Les you have a good point about my Fairness Doctrine post. I was there once before the Gulf War and one time after (1992) when we delivered some bad guys we captured on drug ops. I assumed that the holding facilities for narco-idiots were one and the same as the facilities we have Allah's gangsters in. So if we have NEW jails built I haven't seen them. Thanks for letting me know about that.

Having said that the "torture" the left was screaming about was and IS an abject lie! When the Gitmo uproar started I called my buddy from boot camp, Terry, and asked him about that. Terry and I keep in touch and he has cross rated to MA (Master at Arms) which is a Navy "cop". He was furious at the acusations and said it was a "G.D. lie!" His words not mine, either way as an active duty squid he can't comment on it until he retires next year.

Let's discuss Stalinism. We KNOW it when we see it. Stalin's behavior and tactics even exceed the horror of his comrade in terror Adolph Hitler. No need to be Clintonesque here. Lemme give you MY defintion based on the behavior of the American left.

Stalinist-someone who is eager to use the police power of state to silence their political opposition. Yes you can include John McCain with the cabal of Democrats who pay ONLY lip service to the 1st Amendment.

Well, lets name some names. Specifically, who in the left is a Stalinist and specifically what actions of theirs is Stalinist?
Inquiring minds want to know.; 3:16 AM
Anonymous said...: Let's start with John Kerry. If a politician has called for the "Fairness Doctrine" they are one of two things, a Stalinist, or too damn dumb to understand the implications of what they are saying. Now the stalker of rich widows has been accused of both.

Hillary is a Stalinist. John Podesta's group who released the original report a week ago about "structural imbalance" in talk radio is part of the Clinton machine. Sure it's funded by Soros and other lefty billionaires, but it's for Hillary. Podesta is Hillary's lapdog. This report was the first shot in the war against talk radio. They want it OUT of the way before queen Hillary makes her run. She already silenced a great deal of her opposition when she got 1000 FBI files. Care to talk about that? Doesn't that action alone make chills run down your spine? Doesn't that indicate a level of lawlessness and ruthlessness that should totally disqualify this woman?

Let me repeat this to make it crystal clear. If you are willing to use the police power of the state to silence your political opposition, you are a Stalinist.

If you support the euphemistically named "fairness doctrine" you are NOT a supporter of the 1st Amendment. They are mutually exclusive.

Anonymous said...: How about D**k Cheney? Firing people for dissenting opinions within his own administration? How about subverting the constitution for their own power. Oh, and the one where D**k exempts himself from all oversight because he is a legislative/executive???? Even your fellow regressives are worried about that power play. So, first of all, to use political power you have to have political power as in be 'in power'.

You 'scary' dreams dont quite cut it in the real world.

Oh and I love the 1000 FBI files canard. Just laughable. Psst...She also murdered Vince Foster and they have killed all of their political opponents!

You are the prime demographic of Faux News Morgan. I will leave it at that.; 4:47 AM
Anonymous said...: I guess when the truth isn't convenient, les just makes his own. Who said anything about Vince Foster?

You see les, when a serial abuser of power like Hillary takes the reins, lemmings like you lose nothing. Conservatives and other people who love limited government lose a great deal. Or is that just another "canard"?

Morgan; 5:16 AM
Anonymous said...: Morgan, Now you are finally catching on. Congratulations, it is a canard.

Let me ask you something about the Fairness Doctrine. I know you and your friends are afraid that Rush will not be able to make stuff up anymore for the delight of his listeners. But what about the other side of the coin. You claim that the MSM are all "lefties" (and maybe even Stalinists). What will the Fairness Doctine mean to them. Every time a bomb goes off in Iraq will they have to include a story about a classroom being painted? Will the WP story about D**k Cheney have to be 'balanced' with a story about Al Gore? And isnt that what you want? Balanced reporting? Or does it only apply when your Stalinist friends want it....just wonderin' ya' know.

And speaking of limited government, just what did you lose with W and his cronies at the helm the last 7 years? By your own admission, he has increased the size of government more than anyone in the last 20 years. Arent you angry about that? Or is that just somehow different?; 6:44 AM
Anonymous said...: Les you still haven't answered the MOST important question. You continue to duck it. Are you FOR or AGAINST the "fairness doctrine."
If you duck it again we are done with this discussion.

I'm not going to address your continuous referrals to Vice President Cheney and President Bush. It's a diversion and hatred of Bush and Cheney is a true measure of leftist dememtia. The permanent harrassment of this administration by the Democrats is but ONE of the reasons the American people are going to "frog march" the Democrat's sorry asses out of office in 2008.

You obviously don't understand what the Stalinist Dems have in mind when they push the "fairness doctrine".

IT APPLIES ONLY TO RADIO!!!@!!!!

Do you get it les? If "fairness" matters to you more than the 1st Amendment, wouldn't it apply to TV and Newspapers too? Do you even know the meaning of the words INTELLECTUAL HONESTY LESTER!!!!!?

Instead of using the government to regulate political speech why don't the leftists try to be patriotic Americans for a change and say HELL NO to the moronically named "fairness doctrine?"

BTW les, don't bother answering unless you tell me if you are FOR or AGAINST the "fairness doctrine."

Les Ismore said...: morgan,
Okay, for the umpteenth time, i am against the fairness doctrine because of the internet. and if you actually bother to read the law it doesnt apply to radio only. you may think so but take a minute to read it.
Okay, reread the first paragraph again.; 3:48 AM
