I'm agreeing with you, the left and the right has done it...the left has taken it to levels that would never be accepted by the left if it was said by the right....double standards....hence the go to hell statements....the swinging from the tree statements....
You know how long those would be in the news if a rightie would have said those....but not when a leftie says it....it will make the MSM news about 1 minute...that's it....
Disagree with the bold. (Am not going to give the examples the advantage of bolding.) Do you forget all the things the right has said? Or do you just not know?

Sarah Palin said plenty that was just as bad. And speaking of St. Sarah, what do you think the right would have said if Obama had had a pregnant teenage daughter? She got a free ride on that one, from Obama himself.

Black and Kat,
Both sides do this, however, it is the LEFT that said we need to stop this type of language....obama said it, so did pelosi....
What would have happened if Palin said, "some people want to see them haning in a tree", really, that would have been news for MONTHS....
Just look at how long the MSM went on about her writing a note on her hand...
Black and Kat, if they are so easy to find and they have been in the news for the last several months.....then it should not be that hard for yuo to post some links....
Remember though...no hear say...direct links to a rightie using the same type of language....

Why should we post links and
a. Get into some p****** contest?
b. Have the RW say regarding each and every one: "Oh, that's different"!
?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????
My post was not a deflection. I'd like a little enlightenment. I could surf the web and find lots of despicable comments made by right and left alike. I don't understand why some people here on CD pick up on a particular remark and then go off in a huff demanding that Obama "denounce" the speaker.
Perhaps because 0-bama has displayed a history of insrting himself in many different situations that he should stay clear of. Inserting himself, of course, only if he sees personal gain from doing it.
I like the lady's comment at the end. She looks forward to the "new" standard from the WH.
I guess the "new tone" obama talked about a few months ago doesn't apply anymore.
I think the reason the WH won't denounce such inflammatory rhetoric is this IS their plan, this IS the kind of discourse they will use on the campaign trail.
Based on the reaction from the media, I think they better revise the strategy.
Why didn't you mention the others he said he was proud of?
He DIDN'T say he was proud of Hoffa solely...PERIOD

Where did you tell us you would twist and lie in an attempt to prove a point? I may have missed it.
