The right objectively has more numerous and offensive commentators.
Unity through anger sells a lot better than consensus and understanding.
Progressives need to do a better job of communicating a unified ideology to fight right-wing misinformation and anger. 12/9/2013 12:41:11 PM |

Society LEGALIZES and even ENCOURAGES the specific causal action of one. That is, the left actively promotes the scrambling of babies.
The other is an indirect, unfortunate, and unintended consequence which no side wants. An unintended consequence of neglectful actions, sure, but the causal relationship is a little more obscured.
so...there's that

is pretty close to how the left treats abortion

Fox News had a controversial column about how Pope Francis is the Catholic Obama and we are all screwed: http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/12/04/pope-francis-is-catholic-churchs-obama-god-help-us/
A Jesuit priest called it the worst column of 2013: https://twitter.com/JamesMartinSJ/status/408370956176879616
Turns out the author of this column is the Fox News video game reviewer. That's hilarious. http://www.foxnews.com/archive/author/adam-shaw/index.html 12/9/2013 2:28:14 PM |

Sorry. The far left.
http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/nyc-mayor-elect-bill-de-blasio-pledges-to-open-more-abortion-clinics-close
by the way, my wife interviewed to volunteer at a crisis pregnancy center last week (it's basically a planned parenthood without encouraging abortion. Because of this, NYC's new mayor calls them sham clinics lol). The center is having to undergo an a major rebranding effort this year, so that they can avoid getting shut down, essentially having to disguise what they do. The tolerance of the left is beginning to reveal itself for what it really is. So much for alternatives. And there's only one of these centers left in Manhattan. Apparently that's one too many for de Blasio.

^^Those types of places are often shams, run by pro-lifers. They often deliberately misinform women about the risks of abortion to try to discourage it and give them inaccurate medical advice. They're basically churches disguised as clinics. It's so good to know that your wife wants to be a part of that.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crisis_pregnancy_center
Also, nobody fucking promotes killing babies, so stop with that if you want to be taken seriously.
By the way, this has nothing to do with Fox News. 12/10/2013 8:18:34 AM |

ohmy keeps losing more and more credibility ITT, those crisis pregnancy centers are dangerous scams and they shouldn't be receiving public money
and the far left is not promoting scrambling babies. maybe there are a few crazies, but not any significant or relevant percentage

wow, i know de Blasio and the far left's distorted idea that tolerance is my way or the high way- abortion or else- but i didn't know you guys shared it. it's more prevalent than i thought!
a center that offers advice on adoption or parenting? how terrible!

you mean some of them disseminate false information!? so we should shut them all down!?

most of them disseminate religious counseling by people without medical training, so they should be shut down like Kermit Gosnell was. thanks for agreeing that what they are doing is criminal, lets throw them in prison too.
at the very least, their religious nature should prevent them from receiving any public funds. this is probably the biggest problem with them, and its one thats hard to argue against. 12/10/2013 9:36:27 AM |
ohmy All American 3875 Posts user info edit post |
^right, but we don't shut down all abortion clinics because of Gosnell. It's a case by case basis. In the more progressive parts of the country, though, that's not the case with the crisis pregnancy centers. 12/10/2013 9:44:05 AM |

Oh look, the fucktard cherry-picked one of the few positive statements about them in that entire article. I have no doubt that those non-medical services would be heavily biased in favor of the church, as well.
Quote : | "the far left's distorted idea that tolerance is my way or the high way" |
Not allowing unaccredited "counselors" to administer misleading and even dangerous medical advice does not equal intolerance. You don't don't get to scam people just because you're doing it on religious grounds. And screw making taxpayers fund them.12/10/2013 11:19:16 AM |

Well the correspondent used to work in the office of the Director of National Intelligence, but they did have a clear disclosure at the beginning but he never did anything except be incredible friendly with them. Then the story was just what the NSA wanted to say, it was a puff-piece.
They never asked any hard-hitting questions, like why Clapper and Alexander routinely lied to congress. When the NSA responded that they don't record phone calls, they never pushed back and pointed out that they are accused of recording metadata which can be even more revealing, they just accepted it as a good answer. The report didn't include any NSA critics, and the correspondent never asked the questions or said the things that they would have.
Some of their hard-hitting journalism was asking an NSA analyst to solve a fucking rubik's cube:
This "report" was NSA positive PR and that's it
Google the story and check out the response from everyone, some examples: http://www.theverge.com/2013/12/15/5214452/60-minutes-softball-NSA-expose http://www.thenation.com/blog/177598/sad-decline-60-minutes-continues-weeks-nsa-whitewash# http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/16/60-minutes-nsa_n_4452568.html?utm_hp_ref=media http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/mediawire/233681/60-minutes-reporter-didnt-want-nsa-story-to-be-a-puff-piece/ etc... 12/16/2013 10:21:01 AM |

This is all a strategy by the NSA to root out dissent. Anyone who reacts negatively to the CBS report online will be targeted. The NSA will be looking for anyone that posts those blog links to identify enemies of the republic. You should censor yourself while you still can to protect your family. 12/16/2013 10:30:38 AM |

What is Fox News' position on our fascist descent, by the way? Seems like something they would usually be cool with. In fact, why isn't Fox getting the all-access NSA pass? They should step up their game; they're being out-propaganda'ed by CBS. What is the the world coming to?
