Akin Is Just the Tip of the Iceberg When It Comes to Right Wing Whacko-Ism

[NYcarbineer]

Todd Akin is no crazier than Michele Bachmann. When will the GOP tar and feather her?

Mike Huckabee loves Akin, and is every bit as extreme as he is on abortion, and Huckabee's got a primetime speaking slot at the GOP convention.

Akin got stabbed in the back for one reason, the Missouri senate seat.

There is some truth to what you say, but it's really rather irrelevant to the thread.

How about you Democrats tar and feather your own nuts, then worry about the Republicans

I don't think, at least hope, the Republican leadership believes the stuff they put out. But the same Republican leadership has discovered that some of the rank and file RW's are not too well educated and can be easily led and after all a vote is a vote. The votes of a group that believe a woman secretes something when raped are as good as the votes of a group of Rhodes scholars. It is also one explanation as to why the Republican party began its war on public education, and allows the Akins in their party to determine its medical policies.

thre are many dems that are not well educated and can be easily led.

What's your point?

Akin is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Republican whacko-ism.

From Akin, we learn of the sperm-killing ability of the female anatomy in cases of rape. Never mind scientific fact - Akin knows better. But it doesn't stop there. Oh, no.



Global warming (does not exist), evolution (ditto) or a vaccine designed to prevent a virus linked to cervical cancer which, according to Michele Bachmann, could cause mental retardation because some woman had told her so - it doesn't matter. According to all too many Republicans, science is "poppycock ."



The tragedy is that so many people in the forefront of the Republican Party subscribe to these nut case views.

Then from the left we have idiots like frank, franken, obamaturd and biden. Point? Oh, you have none.

The difference here is, that the linked article in the OP cites facts (documented positions taken by the various people mentioned) whereas your little rant here involves nothing but generalized name calling, totally unsupported by anything specific, let alone a fact or two.

See the difference?

Hey George... You are wasting your time. These people cannot be talked out of their delusions. All that can be done is vote them out of government and any power to affect the lives of Amercans.

true, so vote out Obama and his comrades in arms

It's amusing to read the OP talking about the right wing ignorance of science and then watching leftie after leftie come here a unintentionally prove him wrong.

Can't make this stuff up.

 

[Stephanie]

you see people, if you don't buy into the "man made" global warming you are considered ignorant of science..

you get tired of this crap?

Don't have to. You and Steffuny are a special kind of stupid. It doesn't matter what you believe... just that you keep repeating your nonsense. It helps keep intelligent voters better informed how dangerous you are. Thanks for sharing.

hey look! A left wing hack doesn't agree with me! I'm shocked! SHOCKED I tell ya!!!

Do you really want to get into a right vs left whacko contest? Both sides have more than there fair share only a true partisan whacko believes one side is truly worse than the other.

By any objective standard, the views of the Right on the issues raised in the OP are simply that - whacko. Care to defend that point? Care to provide three or four examples of Leftist views which you feel are comporable on the whacko-meter?

It's one thing to disagree on an issue that has legitimate arguments on both sides, such as abortion or the death penalty. It is quite another to espouse views that are based on patently incorrect assumptions.

If you are blind to the wakkos on your own side then you are by definition a partisan hack....

Speaking only for myself, I'm well aware of the wacko's on the far left. Yet, they do not have a voice in the Democratic Party; the far right wacko's are today a loud voice in the Republican Party.

Are you freaking serious??? They are running the Democrat Party!

Yeah, vote the obamabots and libtards out to save our country. Good point.

You are what they call ignorant. The wackos on the far left control idiots like obamaturd, reid, and other dimwits.

Not by a long shot. Probably because you are so far right - on the fringe - your perspective is blurred (and your vision myopic). The far left, P&F Party, Socialist Workers Party and the violent protests in Berkeley during OWS and elsewhere during WTO meetings are not mainstream members of the Democratic Party and violent behavior is rejected by mainstream Democrats.

What you likely consider wacko are:

1. The right of workers to unionize and bargain collectively;

2. The right of women to make reproductive decisions;

3. Stem Cell research;

4. Universal Health Care;

5. Government stimulating the economy;

6. Environmental protections;

7. Sexual Education in the Public Schools

8. Taxes

9. Reasonable gun control laws

The Wackos are in both parties they are the extremes. The primary difference is the wackos in the Republican party of today have taken over. They are not the extremes they are the party. Compare today's Republican party with the Republican party of say the Eisenhower administration. The wackos of that time were the McCarthys and the other usual nuts, but Eisenhower gave the party some leadership and sanity. Even Reagan made the Republican party somewhat sane, but today the Republican party has become the party of unabashed nuts. Look at the Republican candidates recently put forth, at best, they were embarassing to America. The best thing they could come up with was 999, and it was a meaningless bomb.
The real fear should be: will the nuts really take over the nation, telling us that women have secretions that prevent births from rape, or presidents should keep their money where it's safe, from taxes, in the Cayman Islands?

 

[Wry Catcher]

Have any voices in the Democratic Party claimed God created Issac because the Republican Party has sinned?

Did Jerry Falwell - a huge voice in the Republican Party before he failed (i.e. a more appropriate way to say he passed) - claim God created Katrina to punish NOLA for its sins?

Wackos and hypocrites have lead the Republican Party to the endangered species list.

I'd watch with the anti-vaccine junk science, some on the left of the aisle are true believers in that crap.

Then that would make them uninformed (to be charitable).

Betcha more on the Right buy into it than on the Left, however.

Only uninformed person here is you. At least on the vaccine part. Do you not know the shit they put in those vaccines? My youngest 2 have never had a vaccine and never will get one as long as they are under 18. My youngest has not had one since she was 18 months and all have been healthy as can be. Before I stopped giving my oldest vaccines she was constantly sick of one thing or another..believe what you want but do a little bit of research first. On the religion thing yeah you are right...religious nuts come from the left and right though so.

You would like us to believe that those groups are not mainstream but in fact they are not. The people running the DNC support them in words and deeds.
