I’m an econimic conservative, social moderate, agnostic, politically incorrect dude.

Just for the record.

And you darn well know that Lott didn’t mean anything by his compliment of old fart. Politically correct libs made it into something for political gain. (again)

And can someone please tell me why you are so hard on Lott but keep electing Robert Byrd?

Never made sense to me. Not being sarcastic here, seriously. The hypersensitivity of liberals over race issues would make me think y’all should rather see the guy in jail?

Seriously, a leopard can’t change it’s spots. Especially when their KKK spots.

Hmm. Gotta wonder.

paying a compliment to an old fart at his birthday party is bigotry?

Precisely what I’m talking about when I point out that people have cried wolf one too many times with the race card.

And call me crazy, but that pales in comparison to a certain senator from West Virginia who was a member of a REAL RACIST group back in the day.

But it’s cool now to you, he’s a democrat. To heck with principles, right?

Umm… yes. The racist neanderthal was just re-elected to Republican leadership, and I fail to see Michelle Malkin or any other right-wingers stalking him with posts about his bigotry. You may sit down now.

That’s the funniest thing I’ve heard all day.

Remember Trent Lott? Yeah, the guy who was persecuted for paying a compliment to that old fart at his birthday party…..

Is that the double-standard you’re talking about?

Puuhhleeeez.

And if you don’t mind me pointing this out, what you consider racism is so weak that when you make the accusation, it’s lost it’s sting. I think you’ve cried wolf one too many times.

I believe you were against a fence on the border, raids and such, correct? (tell me if I’m wrong) But what say you about the hispanics in this country that are against enforcement because those sneaking in here are of the same (gasp) RACE that they are?

That seems a bit “racist” to me. Gotta wonder about the motivation behind it.

As one conservative commentator observed, a Democrat hiring a hate-spewing bigoted misandrist like Marcotte to be your primary online voice would be akin to a Republican hiring Fred Phelps as his communications director.

Even though Oliver has tossed off his share of dumb partisan comments, he deserves thanks for not routinely posting viscious profanity-filled rants on his blog. When Oliver takes the time to write a long post, he usually puts a great deal of thought into it. I usually disagree with what he writes, but I keep reading his blog because he is not deliberately hurtful to those with whom he disagrees.

So we can expect O’rilly to resign for defending a child molester on the air?

ya, didn’t think so.

Not sure which “standards” you are referring to.

Say stupid things on the right and its “RACIST.” and “BIGOT ERUPTION!”

That’s just how it works here in OW land. Rarely ever anything to worry about (except those pesky demonstrators- for some reason Oliver thinks they are a bit silly.)

Hey Oliver- have they polished up your spoken word Grammy for that last “The Truth” bit you did?

Stings like a b**** when it comes back at ya, doesn’t it?

While I don’t necessarily agree with your politics, I do respect your opinions.

Your observation is remarkably sublime- and on point.

If the GOP candidates ‘hired guns’ turned out to be the other side of the Amanda Marcotte coin, I hope they too, will resign.

These bloggers are no tribute to their candidates or free speech.

They are, in the end, testimony to an election system gone wild- and no one party has clean hands in that department.
