Where is the outrage?
 

How come we never see any left wing outrage threads? We constantly get these childish end of the world threads and the ones that try to pretend that Obama is Hitler and so forth, but never any left wing rants.

What is the explanation?

Perhaps, because the main stream media provide all the publicity, and support the left wing needs/ wants/ desires.

Look to the White House for answers...

Well gee Tom, that's a really tough one.

We have a president that is basically a liberals wet-dream and you wonder why there are not a lot of threads from the left-wing members that are enraged by BareO's activities? Really?

Pull up some posts from the early 2000's from this board when GWB was in charge - there was plenty of apocalyptic ranting from the left and lots of defense from the more right leaning members.

Your classification of some members concerns here as 'childish' isn't really very helpful, please remember that great liberal catch-phrase - that the strength of a society is directly proportional to its diversity of thought.

Liberals don't have any guns to take away? BUY NOW!

:eek:

TOM! I have always been under the impression that you were reading ALL posts, in ALL threads.

I have seen a number of posts that were so nasty toward the evil Republicans that they were unbelievable. They almost made ME look like a middle of the roader.

I know that you believe that I have on political bias glasses. Although yours are of a different tint, the tint on yours is just as heavy if you have been unable to see this.

The main stream media is unfortunately far from liberal in its bias.

I hate to be the one to tell you but Obama is far from a liberal.

When you are sitting on the left wing tip, then anything to the right of that, even a foot or two, will indeed seem to be lacking in left wing bias.

No problem Tom, I'm all about diversity of thought. I won't even try to tell you your views are wrong or childish.

I suspect your take on Obama and his liberalism are true, many conservatives on this board also pointed out that W wasn't very conservative when he was running the show.

Yep, some of the most glaring oxymorons are when calling people like GW, Lindsay Graham, John McCain,....... conservative.

to those way out on one end, everybody to the left of that is apparently a liberal. Take a look at this thread for examples.

They miss the fact that before you get way out on the other end, there is the middle.

Fortunately, there are still enough people who are moderate in their beliefs and capable of compromise that the country can still limp along.

As an example, the only time ive ever been called a liberal was by zealots on this board who classify themselves as conservative, instead of radical, which is how they appear to people closer to the middle. Outside of this board, Im a moderate independent. I feel no loyalty to either party, and believe that a polarized two party system without thought is dangerous to our society.

Secondly, I agree with the second part of Timfresh's post, with the exception of his belief that Obama is a liberals wet dream, hes far too moderate to be a liberals wet dream.
Back when Bush was haplessly wandering about the white house, there was more complaining from the left side of the spectrum.

All you have to do is discount one members endless character assassination agenda on OD here, and you find the playing field about level. Zealotry doesn't represent either the left or the right, but radical self interest and hypocrisy.

Obama is a slightly center-left corporatist.

EVERYONE, regardless of whether they are on the left wingtip, the right wingtip, or the center aisle THINKS that they are in the middle.

Are you referring to Fox News?
