Hey DU
Hope you enjoy today's cartoon!

1. straight from the modern-day Goebbels' most offensive orifice ...

2. Sigh

Wouldn't it be nice if the right had constructive and relevant criticism of Obama that could help shape the debate in a productive way?

You know, instead of birther and 'deather' BS, ignorant cries of socialism and now, pathetic comparisons to Nazi Germany. In that alternate reality, they'd be useful.

9. Wouldn't it be nice.

Reminding me of the beach boys:
"Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong"

Just amazing what has happened to our democracy. The constructive criticism and productive debate that should be the expected norm has become a sweet but totally unattainable fantasy.

3. He is much of the reason why there is violence in Tampa tonight.

That freaking coward. He is going to get people killed this time.

21 years of that asshole has led to the brainwashed 20 percent who think they can commit violence with impunity.

4. Fuck that fat pasty-assed coward.

I'd love to see someone reduce him to a bloody pulp.

[libodem]

5. That was awesome

I hit unrecommend by mistake. Opps. I fucked up. One of those days.

14. Here, have my rec to neutralize it ;)

Thanks Matthew, great stuff.

6. Thanks Matthew

It's amazing that with ALL the baddies, before or since WWII, Hitler and the Nazis are the one dredged up for comparisons by the Right-Wing blowhards. Where's good ol' Stalin when we need him? OH - that's Right - he left office back in January.

7. Republicans...

They have a wee bit of a projection issue.

[GreenTea]

8. Republican corporate fascism & ideology is exactly the same as the Nazi's-

i.e. Corporations rights & needs, over the rights and needs of the people. Government help should be there for business, industry & corporations, but no government help for the people and workers (the actual tax payers).

Republican philosophy & agenda is exactly the same as Adolf's....Many republicans admired Hitler & the Nazis (many still do) Bush's own daddy and many other corporate pigs love the Nazis corporate imperialistic ideology....And are plainly using their same tactics.

But the Nazi's have a bad name & image, and rightfully so...but that doesn't stop republican fascist like the pigman Limbaugh from using it to his sick, greedy, hateful advantage.

[LaPera]

10. You got it right, bro.

[scarface2004]

11. sure rush fatface...whatever you say!

freakin asshole!!

[struggle4progress]

12. Conversely. liberals say Rush reminds them of an ignorant, gluttonous, drug-addled blowhard

[ShamelessHussy]

13. Godwin's Rule - We Win

It is all they use these days against their enemies, whether foreign and domestic... that is such a potent control word for the reTHUGs that you know something bad is gonna go down at one of these town halls... remember how wound up and scary they were at the palin rallys :scared:

15. Is it possible to file a class-action suit against

his oxycontin-riddled brain? Hiding behind his microphone, he is not required to tell the truth, but as the subject of a lawsuit he would be required to do so.

Why not use their own strategy against them? They taught us how, after all, and probably spent millions figuring out to do what they did to Clinton. They didn't care about winning their various court cases, what they did was to use the legal system to try trap Clinton into lying and to get daily advertising for their political vendetta against him. I thought that using the justice system for political purposes was immoral and probably criminal. But apparently it is not as no one was held accountable.

So why not use their own weapons against them. Limpballs just slandered a whole segment of the population and I would like to see him forced to prove what he says, or STFU and apologize. We know what a coward he is when it comes to actually facing consequences for his actions. He would also have to refrain from his insane allegations while the court case was in progress.

slander

A type of defamation. Slander is an untruthful oral (spoken) statement about a person that harms the person's reputation or standing in the community. Because slander is a tort (a civil wrong), the injured person can bring a lawsuit against the person who made the false statement. If the statement is made via broadcast media -- for example, over the radio or on TV -- it is considered libel, rather than slander, because the statement has the potential to reach a very wide audience.
