Harvey Milk vouched for mass-murderer Jim Jones as "a man of the highest character" to President Jimmy Carter in February 1978. By November of 1978, Jones had orchestrated the deaths of more than 900 people, including a six-year-old boy he kidnapped who Milk had wrongly insisted was Jones's son to the president. Thirty one years later, Milk's aiding and abetting Jim Jones's murder of a young boy is forgotten. Barack Obama awards Milk the Presidential Medal of Freedom today. In honoring a man who pioneered the tactic of "outing," concocted stories of victimhood to advance his political career, carried on a sexual relationship with an underage runaway, and routinely likened political opponents to Nazis, Barack Obama dishonors himself. Read about the Harvey Milk that the president doesn't know about, or doesn't want you to know about, here.

I'd be willing to bet that Obama and some on his staff are well aware of this. I'd also bet that his willing lackies in the media would attack anyone who tried to bring Milk's past up as hateful homophobes. I've grown very cynical in my life about our government to where I feel that both parties are mildly different paths to the same damnation and loss of freedom.

Obama doing dishonor to himself? Say it ain't so! Ted Kennedy will be the recipient of some award from the Fraud in Chief soon as well. Lifetime achievement for contirbuting to the demise of America I suspect.

Wow... its nice to see that somethings never change, that you are still here doing nothing but complaining day after day. I really feel sad that you have nothing better to do. I love how there are just 1-4 posts in each thread now, your one track mindless agenda of constant left-wing bashing must really be winning over the minds of the masses

I think the answer lies in a general consensus from most who visit this site and from the other side having very little factual ammunition available that could counter the reality that the left is causing the destruction of our country. And although there are many, many morons on the left, even they are not so obtuse as to not notice how bad things are and what a loser their 'messiah' turned out to be. Some things are so obvious, they don't necessitate that much discussion.

Yeah, Horse, and you're still on here complaining about people who complain. Good job on that.

Good job horse... thank you for proving that liberalism is a mental disorder.

Lesseee...

Obama is complaining about greedy doctors chopping off foots. And that Barney Frank won't sit down and shut up. Libs are complaining that lib politicians are getting questioned during the whistle-stops for National Healthcare Campaign 2009. They're complaining that the minority party doesn't roll over. They're complaining that it's un-American.

Protesting...the basic staple of the left...is complaining.

Actually, I'm not a big fan of the Doors. I should have mentioned that that was part of it.

Luther Campbell has more credibility than Barack Obama. We are all BANNED in the U.S.A!

Sorry, asdf, there wasn't a complaint in my original statement. Thanks for trying though you horse's ass.

"Protesting...the basic staple of the left..."

Really... citation needed on that one. What about abortion protests? Protests on health care reform? Tax protests? Election recount protests? The coup in the NY Senate? There have been quite a few to list recently...

Were you referring to war protests, civil rights protests, labor rights, suffrage, and the like when referring to the left's 'staple'? Because these have all been shown to be the correct stance on the issues.

Also, good job brian... thank you for proving that you have nothing of substance to say.

Haha, sorry asdf, Sea King's comment really sounded like something you would say.

Would you please go back to the Daily KOS.

And why isn't she president? Oh yeah, that's right, ignorance and a big mouth:

Sorry to kill your buzz horses-azz but Sea King and I are not the same person. So much for your big discovery. If you bothered to parse the entries here more closely, you'd find that SK is a deeper thinker and rarely shoots from the hip. Which I sometimes do. Although, both of us are always right.

Doy! With abortion protests, you have a point. But otherwise, can you mention one that didn't happen this year.

I'm so glad you're all so right in your own mind. Yup, the left is excused of anything, because--why they were RIGHT to do what they did. Where as the right, despite that they may think they are RIGHT are actually objectively wrong. And they have been "proven right" by a left-leaning press.

Was your side "proven right" chanting "Bush must die!" Were they right in taking their torch and pitchforks to private homes of AIG employees. Was your side "right" staging die-ins at nuclear plants, as if just locating a nuclear plant somewhere (they abound in wonderful, enviable Europe, you know?) meant death?

I read far-left liberal rags in the 80s just to make sure that I wasn't steering myself into a corner. Through the years, I've found that they were hardly right on any damn thing. They said that the government was covering up that there were plants in America just like Chernobyl. It was a not-at-all-conservative professor you explained the danger in solid matrix fission that the Russians used as to the liquid matrix we used.

"you'd find that SK is a deeper thinker and rarely shoots from the hip".

Thanks, A. --Not to mention that I'm much more inclusive toward socialism than you are.

But you might find that 7 months of Obama have given me a bit more abrasive tone. The arrogance of the left, fully in power and whining that Republicans are still talking about things and purveying points of view that they don't agree with--well, it's just more of the reason that I get along better with Reaganites than cyrpto-socialists.

I read this blog every day. I usually read the comments.

However, I do NOT post unless I think I have something meaningful to add. Time is more important than that.

Be well,

sponge

What's next horse? Are you going to defend the 60's losers,who were weak,cowardly,selfish,thus easy targets to become stooges for Marxist mass murderers? Of course the Marxists killed in the name of "social justice",which in the mind of the 60's losers,made the death of over 100 million people,justifiable.

These are the same cowards who have never made a full accounting of themselves during the 60's,70's,and early 80's.
Why do you and your kind willingly ignore the fact you were enablers for the mass murdering Marxists? Boast about Vietnam, fought for Marxists insurgencies in Angola,El Salvador,Nicarauga,Venezula,but never answer for the removal of personal freedom or unjustified murder of those with the "gall" to speak out against the state?

I would also like your brilliant mind as well as your vast knowledge of world history, then explain, in exactly what country has socialism brought about anything other than poverty,misery,unemployment,lack of opportunities,as well as shame to the people who have lived under that miserable economic system?

I can only assume,by reading your illiterate leftists rants, that you have spent little,if any time working in the real world.
You sound like those losers who are still living out their childish,as well as destructive 60's fantasies,while indoctrinating(i.e.lying by rewriting history) young minds on many college campuses. These people are cowards,who need professional help, for their inordinate fear of reality. Then of course, they need to grow up.

As horses-azz has explained in the past, he's a social worker. Go figure?!

Sponge: I'm with you on your explanation of the posting thing. That's what I was alluding to previously. Most people don't post unless they have something to add but I suspect many read this site everyday. I post more often I think because this site interests me and is typically a learning experience with regard to others comments. Plus I like Flynn's eclectic brand of topics. Also my ODS comes out a lot, I think. Venting, don't you know.

And an obvious thought I had with regards to O and his handlers' whining about the public protestations against the NHC - they attempt to site violence as a tool those on the other side of the issue supposedly use to press their point. But the irony is rich considering that one of the O's many radical friends and associates was an admitted terrorist bomber and full time agitator of protest who used real violence to reach his ends. And then laughed about it.

Wish someone in the media would bring this up (queue crickets).

Social worker,huh? That makes sense,a parasite sucking on the taxpayers teet and completely reliant on government for a paycheck.
All for what? To add to the roll of government dependency.

Horse- when are you and your kind going to get us out of the real,45 year old quaqmire of a war, the war of poverty? Talk about a disaster and quaqmire, the 45 year old long,lost war on poverty is the real quaqmire.
Why does the left seem to willingly ignore the governments attempt to solve poverty,has been a miserable failure?

Then again,it has produced generation after generation,5-6 to be specific, that are as completely reliant on government assistance,as a herion addict in need of their next fix.
That equals votes for the democrats(i.e. the party of government dependency), so the beat goes on.
I know your answer,so don't waste your time.
Education is the key. What about some competition for the teachers union and public schools? The left in governments takes plenty of money from the worthless teachers unions,however,they send their own children to private schools,which they deny to the poor.

The eptomie of hypocrisy! Then again, so was Marx,Trotsky,Lenin,as well as Alinsky, all role models to the left. Complete frauds.

I for one would like to see a comparison of films between the frothing libs protesting at the homes of AIG execs (the "torch and pitchfork brigade" as I called them) and what is now called "the mob".

I don't think the media ever used that word at their righteous indignation.

The O loves that class warfare and the division within the ranks it causes. Part of the plan don't you know. Everything that this guy and his handlers have demonstrated so far does not bode well for a successful and secure America.

The new Lenin that occupies the White House, bristles like the immature child he is,proven by his miserable life.
The reporters need to start asking a real question,after little Vladamir bristles upon a challenge.
Why not follow up with this, "Why should we believe you are capable of accomplishing anything productive in the real world,considering you have avoided that world for 47 years and have never held a job in the private sector,thus have no proof you have what it takes to solve any serious matter, which carries consequences due with your actions?"

This guy is attempting to fufill his Stalinist father and first mentor,Frank Marshall Davis, dreams of creating a utopia on earth.
Proof? He said so during the 08 election at a church. He said and I quote," Why can't we create a utopia on earth?" The MSM, "believe it or not" seemed to overlook that very dangerous statement,which revealed his true intention.

One of the criteria of being placed on The Homeland security's list of domestic terrorists:
- Fear of communist governments

I guess an ideology that killed over 100 million people,has been kept a secret from the media and those little Stalinists that occupy the White House.

Personally,I tend to be concerned about individuals who have been mass murderers,since the 1920's.

You are so over the top... now I remembered why I stopped coming here. You guys are the radicals that you fear so much. And no, im not a social worker any more, I now work in research with a local medical center, aholesdf. But it is the same mission of living to help others, you should try it, for once.

Peace homies...

Horse- you are so naive,when it comes to the real world, it's appalling.
I am a veteran of the US military and spent time in "paradises" such as Beruit (mid 1980's), Panama, Belfast (assisting recover US weapons stolen from a US armory), Honduras,ElSalvador,and Columbia.
You have no freakin idea what type of "evil" exists in the real world.
Have you ever put your behind on the line for your country?

You are the one over the top, due to your complete lack of reality, due to sheltering yourself in the government bubble. If you think going in a public housing project, to put more on the government payroll, then you are more naive than my 10 year old.

Feel free not to mix with real men and try out the Daily Kos (filled with cowards,who found military life too difficult for their weak shoulders) or continue living in your fantasy world.

P.S. I would wager that you have simple slogans on the rear bumper of your rig, that has moronic phrases such as " No Human Is Illegal", " Coexist", or perhaps, "I am a Moron".

I have encountered your kind, you have a phobia about hitting, cower from bullies,and warn children not to play with fireworks,because they might lose an eye. I feel certain you would urinate in your panties if asked to shoot a firearm.
Move to western europe with the rest of the weak sheep and limp-wristed socialists. You and your kind give America's enemies hope,due to your weakness.
