Last night I attended an event at which Presidential Press Secretary Tony Snow was originally to have spoken. However, he had had to cancel his appearance due to a conflict in his boss’ schedule. As you probably know, Mr. Snow was in the hospital Monday having cancer surgery. His substitute, author and evangelical Christian conservative radio talk show host, Janet Parshall more than adequately filled in for him. She even began her presentation with a prayer for Tony Snow, who is a friend of hers.
Janet Parshall spoke in Cincinnati last night to a group of supporters of Citizens for Community Values (CCV). Her speech commented upon CCV”s primary areas of mission focus. As I was driving home from this event, I picked up the Laura Ingram radio talk show on WABC 770 AM out of New York City. She was talking about Tony Snow as well. She mentioned several times that Mr. Snow was at the top of her prayer list. Laura Ingram, herself, had battled cancer in recent years and has great empathy with anyone struggling to survive cancer.
Contrast the approach or reaction of these two women as well as many other compassionate Americans to that of the radical leftist as portrayed in a WorldNetDaily.com news item reported today. The story is titled, “FATAL INSTINCT Left spews deadly venom over Tony Snow's cancer, 'He is pure lying scum and should die ASAP!'” The article describes some of the vicious and brutal comments made on some left wing bloggers on the internet. I think that these comments are the heart expressed or unexpressed feelings of many on the far left. Their hatred for the President and his Administration runs deep and is merciless.
Interestingly, Janet Parshall, was herself the subject of a OneNewsNow.com news article by Jim Brown. He writes, “Christian radio talk-show host Janet Parshall, a high-profile American evangelical known for her strong support of Israel, has dropped out of a Jerusalem conference sponsored by a Christian caucus of the Israeli Parliament. Parshall says she decided not to speak at the conference after she learned that the Knesset Christian Allies Caucus "condemns" and does not associate with groups that share the gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Point #1 - Have you guys ever heard of TROLLS?? Is it not possible that when an incident like this happens that a republican POSING as a liberal could post nasty stuff and then blog about how terrible LIBERALS are for posting it?
ReplyDeletePoint #2 - Surely you know that there are nasty people in BOTH parties don't you? Here are just a few examples of comments that I found ON ONE SITE about Senator Tim Johnson's brain hemorrhage:
"may he get worse quick."

"YAY ! We might get a majority back !
I hope he doesnt get well. Seriously I dont give a shit about a Liberal Democrat who will sell out the country to terrorists. Hopefully the surgeon has shaky hands."

BTW this no conspiracy theory - It could be easily and often done by members of either party. Nasty people are just that.
I don't think that the people who posted nasty stuff on Snow were trolls, I'm just pointing out the futility of moral indignation on this issue.
Your point is well taken. I don't think that we should waste our time looking for hateful things that a few liberals say as evidence that they are evil. We should point out that the policies that they are in favor of are the real evidence of their hatefulness.
ReplyDeleteI would ask that you would refrain from using foul language. If you are quoting someone else, use "@#%*" or something like that in place of the filthy word.
