"The Pro Cancer Left" and Michelle Malkin
Edited on Thu Apr-28-05 06:04 PM by ruggerson
Well we hit the big time. Wall St. Journal and Michelle Malkin in one day.

I guess these guys never heard of Free Republic wishing death on everyone to the left of Ghengis Kahn.

The Pro-Cancer Left
Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham, on whose show we've appeared several times, has just had surgery for breast cancer. We wish her the best. So does Elizabeth Edwards, wife of the former North Carolina senator and Democratic vice presidential nominee, who herself has been suffering from breast cancer. Mrs. Edwards is an occasional contributor to the Angry Left Web site DemocraticUnderground.com, where she posted on a thread about Ingraham's ailment:

I have been a Democrat for a long time, and part of the Democratic principles that attracted me as a young person and kept me a Democrat all these years is our compassion. Democrats are simply good and decent people. And good and decent people want everyone to do well--those who agree with them and those who do not. We fight for the right of voices with which we disagree to speak out, for the right of people to say things we don't believe to be true, even for the right to be malicious and mean-spirited. If we fight for the right for LI to say what she says, how in the world can we use our disagreement with those words as an excuse not to be compassionate in her fight with cancer. Being willing to have her voice muted by illness is the same thing as not wanting her voice to be heard. It is not Democratic or democratic.

But as blogress Michelle Malkin points out, not all DU denizens are as charitable. "She Probably Gave it to Herself," says one, with "All that Hate, Lies, Anger." Another: "I don't pray for Nazis or other Totalitarian Scum." Malkin quotes a third, which includes an obscenity, but it has now been deleted, as have at least 17 others in the thread. Who says conservatives are mean-spirited?

1. Lovely. Let them swim in their own hate for us...
Edited on Thu Apr-28-05 05:52 PM by Misunderestimator
any chance they get... And notice that the first quote ("All that Hate, Lies, Anger.") is linked to a poster who joined very recently and has very few posts. Hmmmm...

(I also alerted on that post, since it was made WELL after it was apparent that the thread was flamebait...)

5. If I remember the post correctly...
...most of the replies weren't people wishing death for Ingraham, but posters admonishing those that were. Of course, the entire post was flame-bait anyway, and I can't believe there are people who fall for it everytime.

8. No shit...
...I tried warning everyone on the thread after it started and before I hit "ALERT" on it, that the original poster was a troll looking for exactly the response they got, and don't be suprised if it shows up around the web in the next few days, as an example from frepperland of how intolerant the DUers are.

6. Yeah, who didn't see that coming
Some Duers stepped waaaaaaay over the line on this one. No surprise though, I suppose, to see that we are becoming that which we abhor: vile, deep-down haters with a lack of compassion for our enemies, even in their darkest hours.

7. Sorry, but 'journalists' who troll message boards are worthless and need
to go back to school.

9. And Malkin belongs to the party that allows discovery of pollution such
as Lake Charles Louisiana to be covered up and under reported so that people will die of diseases such as angiosarcoma of the liver and other maladies ONLY EVER CAUSED by PCB poisoning...or the cover up such as occurred in Libby Montana which has caused many cases of mesothelioma ONLY EVER caused by asbestosis.

Sorry, Michelle..since I know you are reading this, I know you saw MY post and Elizabeth Edwards' posts...

I am PROUD to be a part of the party which OCCASIONALLY says something mean versus the party which ensures lots of cancer for MANY people..

oh..and in the most loving, respectful way I can think of expressing it...FUCK YOU!

10. Hey MICHELLE MALKIN: WHAT ABOUT THE FREEPERS
Go through here:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1270508/posts

These are some of the first posts that Freek Republic denizens posted about Elizabeth Edwards. You will note that many posts have been deleted, because they wished Mrs. Edward's a horrible death and were gleeful at her cancer.

WHERE WERE YOU THEN, MICHELLE? WHEY DIDN'T YOU WRITE ABOUT THAT?


"a pity for sure, but good luck finding a doctor to treat the wife of the most vicious medical malpractice attorney in the nation...what goes around comes around I guess."

"I GUARANTEE you this is going to be somehow connected to medicines and procedures which enabled her late-in-life pregnancies. Look out, pharmeceutical companies!"

"I wish this vile woman a successful recovery."

"any doctor here who treats her should have his head examined."
One freeper already pointed out that they may find cause over the late pregnancies."

"I wonder if she will be able to find a doctor with enough malpractice insurance in case hubby decides to sue over something"

"Well, this does explain her irrational behavior on the campaign trail. Cancer will have that effect"

"I never knew anything about Mrs. Edwards until she opened her mouth on a few occasions and proved herself to be a vile and hateful woman."

"Lord, please forgive me for the first thought that came into my mind."

"2 removed posts in the first 17 doesn't bode well for showing some respect."

13. AND WAIT A MINUTE!!!! WHY IS THIS NEWS?????
Edited on Thu Apr-28-05 06:16 PM by Montauk6
God effin DAMN IT! Message boards ALL OVER THE INTERNETS call for fatwas and other curses on liberals 24/7!!! How many PRAYED for Clinton to die on the operating table last fall??? THAT didn't make news.

DID I MENTION YET HOW I SO LOATHE THESE PEOPLE!!!!!???? ARRRGH!!!!


Let me just whip this out here...

"Chelsea is a Clinton. She bears the taint; and though not prosecutable in law, in custom and nature the taint cannot be ignored. All the great despotisms of the past - I'm not arguing for despotism as a principle, but they sure knew how to deal with potential trouble - recognized that the families of objectionable citizens were a continuing threat. In Stalin's penal code it was a crime to be the wife or child of an 'enemy of the people.' The Nazis used the same principle, which they called Sippenhaft, 'clan liability.' In Imperial China, enemies of the state were punished 'to the ninth degree': that is, everyone in the offender's own generation would be killed and everyone related via four generations up, to the great-great-grandparents, and four generations down, to the great-great-grandchildren, would also be killed."

- John Derbyshire, National Review, 02-15-01

15. Don't forget that, while being prepped for surgery, Reagan had the
nerve to insinuate that a Democratic surgeon would be happy to let him die, abandoning the Hippocratic oath . . .

Liberals and Dems tend to see the person in pain before asking if they have their Party affiliation card (or medical coverage, for that matter) . . .
