Your Democratic Strategists

Kirsten Powers makes a nice living by coming on TV and acting as a “Democratic Strategist” whose sole lot in life is attacking the left. She blogged for a while but apparently gave it up when it became clear that the blogosphere wouldn’t pamper her as lovingly as Fox. She’s taken today to the pages of Rupert Murdoch’s newspaper to… you guessed it… attack liberals.

Conservatives long ago adapted to life in a world where watching the network news or picking up one of the major news dailies is a virtual guarantee of having their views mocked, demeaned or misrepresented. If you’re a social conservative, multiply the odds by 100.

But some liberals, unused to feeling such stings, view government intervention as a salve.

I happen to not like the Fairness Doctrine myself, but you don’t see me and others like me reading from conservative talking points like Kirsten Powers does when we talk about it.

    Those poor conservatives, having their racist, homophobic, jingoistic, inhumane views mocked by people who report facts for a living. Those poor, poor souls.

    Conservatives supported slavery; they supported union-busting; they supported apartheid; they supported anti-Semitism; they supported Jim Crow; they supported McCarthyism. Ms. Powers, there is a good god damned reason why conservatives’ opinions are maligned by the press: THEY’RE IDIOTIC OPINIONS.

    So let’s hear it, Oliver. Why don’t you like the fairness doctrine? (Instead of pissing and moaning about someone elses reasons.)

    She admits that the views of liberals are mocked in the media, but I’m sure she didn’t mean to be so insightful.

    Because it doesn’t work with twelve billion channels?

    Wow, look what I found, a liberal website…tough nowadays to have such tripe on the web without an opposing (aka: correct) viewpoint.

    Funny how you attack a liberal like Powers just because she is on Fox. You people give me so much happiness, knowing that your extreme leftist views are running your party into the ground.

    How in earth could you possibly have a candidate that was way ahead of anyone in the polls lose your nomination to a racist with a little over 140 days of experience? Don’t answer, just keep up the good work!
