Why so much vulgarity and hate speech from the left/progressive people? It must be because their loosing control and people are tired of their lies!! It starts from the top, it's in the congress, the press, on tv as well as on the web.

Are you deaf in one ear? You apparently only hear things from one side.

I do see that some of the very left are getting more into name calling and deflection, but not all.

for example:

When the College Republican club at the University of Iowa sent out a university-approved blast e-mail regarding its “Conservative Coming out Week,” one professor took umbrage with it. And she let the group know it with three some simple words: “Fu** You Republicans!”

“I think it’s fair to say that their vision is radical,” Obama told a town hall gathering that included questions posed by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and sent in by site users

You learn something new every day. Today, we find out that South Carolina Tea Partiers, and by default all Republicans, are a bunch of stupid, uninformed, racist, sexist birthers who take their lead from Fox and Glenn Beck

Since Sarah Palin has come onto the national scene, as of several years ago, Trig has been subject to some vicious attacks. And on the occasion of his birthday, it was no different. On Monday, the snarky liberal website Wonkette “celebrated” Trig’s birthday by posting a malicious item about the toddler which left blogs like Newbusters and Mediaite reeling. The Wonkette item is titled “Greatest Living American: A Children’s Treasury of Trig Crap On His Birthday.”

You’ve already seen how leftist protesters responded during the National Anthem at Saturday’s Tea Party rally in Madison, WI. Now you can see how they responded during a 14-year-old girl’s speech during that same event. Not only did they continue yelling and making noise, but this guy screamed “Fu**ing brat!” and told her to go home while making some nice hand gestures:

I rest my case of post #2 in this thread. I could say the same things you have about similar crap coming from the right but it just wouldn't be worth the effort, it would obviously fall on your deaf ear.

With the "Birthers", Donald Trump, forged Kenyan birth certificates, cranky old ladies and chimpanzee emails, the Tea Party/Trailer Park society, Sarah Palin et al....I think the Republicans have cornered the market on "losing it"

You see that criticism and vulgar from all sides. Its not because they are losing control, but because its campaign season, many people want to tear the other side points. It will get more fierce than that in the coming months with both sides.
