You don't take "Faux" News seriously. Why should I take Puffington Post seriously?

would you like one or two lumps of coal?,

I understand that we don't want people who can actually get a job GET a job and not get WELFARE AKA Social Services, why not just vote all the Local Dems out of office. That's my solution. Then again some Reps can be liberal themselves, so where do you go next. don't talk to me about the Party that's Green or the Ron Paul Movement, because that's a very minute group. If the TEA Party can organize themselves instead of just making protests that go nowhere(I"ve seen plenty of protests where nothing happened)...I will not mind voting for their representative. Until then, I won't vote for a Republican at all, unless he ACTUALLY works for the people

Both of his articles are chock full of unproven assumptions, poisoning the well and guilt-by-association. They are filled with argumentative fallacies that few people even know the names for anymore. What's worse, he is name-calling and throwing slurs as much as anyone he is trying to criticize ("teabaggers", "wingnuts", "bigots").

There is no reason to listen to him. His abuse of reason and language to fit his feelings and political impulses makes him useful only to people who thrive on feeling and not thinking and want another reason to beat their drum. He is only making war grunt noises for his tribe.

Do you disagree with the Southern Strategy parallel? I think it's right on the money.

I read all the time about blacks targeting immigrants in their communities. I know its happening in Philadelphia. So by this idiot's Bob Seska's logic, all blacks are racists. He sounds dumb. This Huffington Post must be an extremist racist hate site.
The Tea Party is not and was never about race and has nothing to do with racism. Those hate mongers on the far left would like people to be stupid enough to believe that, and a few left wingers do I suppose. And that Tea Party supporters oppose immigration is too imbecilic to even be taken seriously. Opposing illegal immigration is a major part of their movement, but guess what, the majority of americans in both parties and independants feel that way. So now Seska thinks the vast majority of americans are racists? No, we can be glad nobody thinks that way and sites like the Huffington Post only appeal to the most extremist kook fringe, apparently.

I just find it hilarious that some people on here blast Rush, Hannity and Beck and keep posting from Huff and Puff

OK, here goes.. this bob cesca character lists his job title as political writer, blogger, and new media producer. He also claims to be a screenwriter, producer, and writer. Bob Cesca I would also list ignorant race baiting piece of trash as a major accomplishment. I'm sure he is enjoying his unemployment wages with all those jobs too and probably not understanding why he isn't getting his big break. After all, his mommy said he is very special.
This is clearly an uninformed person with nothing but time on his hands. Someone that is obviously filled with plenty of hate and completely delusional. I would equate this person to someone with absolutely no life, who spends endless hours on internet forums racking up thousands and thousand and thousands of posts.
Does that about hit the nail on the head?
