re: #345 Ben Hur

Bullshit.

And aside from Charles, who has been consistent, even when I don’t agree, anyone here posting from the left has no leg to stand on when criticising ANYTHING people protesting Obama do, say, dress, etc.

At all.

Bush wasn’t pres 20 years ago or something.

No one has EVER had to put up with those types of images as president (from the political opposition OF HIS OWN COUNTRY).

Now that the left got away with it for 8 years, they’re screaming that’s it wrong when the level of vitriol is maybe 1/10th of the degree of what Bush got is directed at The One.

We all know that “dissent” only means when a Republican is in office.

If Republicans and conservatives or any degree of the “right” is critical, it has merit.

Not if it’s coming from the left.

I don’t think you know whether people at LGF posting from the left either participated or approved of these tactics when committed by the left. The vitriol has reached the point it has and Obama has only been president for 7 months. I recall the Right being pretty hysterical about Bill and Hilliary. I’m not sure what you mean by the left getting away with it, as those tactics have hurt the Democrats since the Vietnam War.
