Party of Hypocrisy

Look, Democrats, you're scaring me even more than usual, all right? You have a severe psychological problem infecting your entire party. It's called "projection." That's when you attribute your own faults to others. Take Edwards' acceptance speech, for example:

Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards called on Americans on Wednesday to reject what he denounced as the Republicans' "hateful, negative politics" and embrace John Kerry and his "politics of hope."

"The Republicans are doing all they can to take this campaign for the highest office in the land down the lowest possible road," Edwards said in remarks prepared for delivery to the Democratic National Convention.

This is f**king ridiculous. Do you really think the American people are dumb enough to believe that the Republicans are the ones who have been hateful, negative, and divisive? Oh, right, you do think that, because you're a bunch of elitist douchebags.

But don't let the truth stop you. After all, your constant accusations of Republicans questioning your patriotism and dividing the country and oppressing minorities and practicing bigotry and polluting the environment might actually convince a few people that an (R) next to someone's name makes them a being of pure, malevolent evil and hatred. But it's still. not. f**king. true.

You can tell when I'm mad, because I start using censored f-bombs in every paragraph. And I'm f**king furious right now.

Let's review a few things Democrats have done, and then we'll see which party is embracing "hateful, negative politics." It's time for a list:

- "Digital Brown Shirts." A phrase coined by Democrat Al Gore.

- Another fun Al Gore quote: "He betrayed this country! He played on our fears!
He took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops, an adventure preordained and planned before 9/11 ever took place!"

- John Kerry: “These guys are the most crooked, you know, lying group I have ever seen. It’s scary.”

- Democratic Senator Tim Johnson: "...how sweet it's going to be on June 2 when the Taliban wing of the Republican Party finds out what's happened in South Dakota."

- Julian Bond, chairman of the "non-partisan" (meaning "Kerry supporting") NAACP: "Their idea of equal rights is the American flag and the Confederate swastika flying side by side. They've written a new constitution for Iraq and ignore the Constitution here at home. They draw their most rabid supporters from the Taliban wing of American politics. Now they want to write bigotry back into the Constitution."

- Ted Kennedy: "Shamefully, we now learn that Saddam's torture chambers reopened under new management: U.S. management."

- Teresa Heinz-Kerry, wife of the Democratic presidential nominee: "To have a couple of people who escaped four, five, six times and deferred, deferred and deferred, calling [Kerry] anything or doubting his heroism is in and of itself unpatriotic."

- Michael Moore is considered important enough to sit next to Jimmy Carter at the convention. Here's a quote from Moore's latest book, Dude, Where's My Country?: "I don't know how to put it any gentler than to say that these bastards who run our country are a bunch of conniving, thieving, smug pricks who need to be brought down and removed and replaced with a whole new system that we control."

- Michael Moore again: "The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not "insurgents" or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy.' They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win."

- DNC chairman Terry McAuliffe on Moore's film, Fahrenheit 9/11: "I think anyone who goes to see this movie will come out en masse and vote for John Kerry. Clearly the movie makes it clear that George Bush is not fit to be president of this country." When asked if he believed Moore's theory that the war in Afghanistan was fought for oil, he said, "I believe it after seeing that."

- Ted Kennedy again: "The only thing we have to fear is four more years of George Bush."

- Al Sharpton: "This court has voted five to four on critical issues of women's rights and civil rights. It is frightening to think that the gains of civil and women rights and those movements in the last century could be reversed if this administration is in the White House in these next four years. I suggest to you tonight that if George Bush had selected the court in '54, Clarence Thomas would have never got to law school."

- Democratic Senator Hillary Clinton: Bush is "...making America less free, fair, strong, smart than it deserves to be in a dangerous world...This administration is in danger of being the first in American history to leave our nation worse off than when they found it."

- Al Gore yet again: "They have taken us much farther down the road toward an intrusive, 'big brother'-style government -- toward the dangers prophesied by George Orwell in his book '1984' -- than anyone ever thought would be possible in the United States of America."

- Democrat Jesse Jackson: "In South Africa we'd call it Apartheid. In Nazi Germany we'd call it fascism. Here we call it conservatism."

- George Soros, who is practically dedicating his life to funding the Democrats, says this: "When I hear Bush say, 'You're either with us or against us,' it reminds me of the Germans...America, under Bush, is a danger to the world..."

Oh, but it's the Republicans who are guilty of "hateful, negative politics," right? After all, if Democrats say it, it must be true. They're the Party of the People!!!

F**ktards.

Call me crazy, but I think both parties have this disease.

I condider myself a Democrat, and I was still disappointed in the convention. Hope, my ass. The only thing they didn't do is mention anyone by name.

I just can't wait to see what happens at the RNC now. Bush struck back by questioning Kerry's credibility already.

Let the hate-mongering begin.

There's a difference between criticism and flat-out hatred, though. The Dems seem to cross that line just a bit too often for comfort.
