Conservatives need to fight dirty like Dems

@AMY: I respectfully disagree...Mr. Limbaugh hurts the Republican Party, he does not help it. Thoughtful conservatives, like Colin Powell, who respect traditions and are wary of government over-reaching, make this a better country. Ideologues who brook no compromise with their fellow citizens only undermine democracy.

The "MSM" is not liberally biases...it is money and scandal biased.

Sarah Palin only frightens lefties because we are patriots, and would be horrified that someone as self-interested and unqualified might have a chance at higher office...it is a poor reflection on our citizenry that someone so low could reach so high.

After 8 years of Bush, your article's claim that "Conservatives and Republicans have just been too laid back, content in the belief that honesty, integrity, and doing the right things matter." ring somewhat hollow. Politics and morality are incompatible. It's not fair, but it is the way things are. By the way, are you more interested in your party winning, or your country winning? We live and work and compromise together....Liberals and Conservatives alike. Hatred is a poor value to emphasize.

I guess you slept through the 1990's and the Clinton Lynching group calle the Arkanses project funded my Scaife and supported by Republicans.

You already have a great start, in fact you are a shining example of "Dirty" after all you label liberals as murders, Terrorist sypmathizers, etc.....

Do you realise that this Blog post will now allow us to get into the gritty of how dirty you already are.

Good Luck.

Jacob Pickard: " Do you realise that this Blog post will now allow us to get into the gritty of how dirty you already are." What's different about this blog post than any of my others? The venom and nastiness in comments from libs like you will be the norm. I'm expecting them.
And so it goes...

Amy - One only needs to look back at your track record of accusations on your blogs.

To clarify some apparent omissions:

1. Belling was filling in as a guest host on Rush Limbaugh's Radio Program

2. David Kahane is a conservative writer attempting to be funny by writing from what he and other short sighted, and intelligence challenged conservatives consider to be the 'liberal' point of view.

Media Matters:
http://mediamatters.org/limbaughwire/2009/07/07

After another break, Belling read a recent National Review Online essay by David Kahane in its entirety. Titled, "I Still Hate You, Sarah Palin," it was written from the view of a "liberal" and appeared to be a sort of satire about how conservatives need to start playing "dirtier," like the Democrats. At least that's how Belling explained it to us after he was through reading the entire piece. Now, we don't fancy ourselves modern-day Wildes or Twains, but really... is this the best "satire" the right can come up with? The same old silly and childish taunts (Obama's "The One," Democrats are Communists, the Saul Alinsky boogeyman) retrofitted with first-person pronouns and regurgitated from the viewpoint of a sneering liberal stereotype? We realize that lame satire is the norm on The Rush Limbaugh Show, and we understand that it's difficult to find new and exciting ways to call Democrats elitist, socialist, America-hating cultists, but, come on, guys, you can be a little less ham-fisted than that.

Another example of 'conservative bias in reporting by omission'. Someone around here had a entry on that very topic too...

http://www.livinglakecountry.com/blogs/communityblogs/49695077.html

Locke: What is your point? Belling was filling in for Rush, but then the later Mark Belling show on WISN was a replay of that same broadcast. So what - what is the relevance? I mention Belling is a conservative radio talk show host. Again, what was your point?
And I stated that David Kahane was writing his piece as the viewpoint of a liberal. He was doing it as satire. Sorry, I assumed that most people know the National Review is a conservative publication.
Are you grasping at straws to somehow do what?

Just helping you out with all of the relevant facts...
I didn't want there to be any confusion...

Locke: I am not sure what "confusion" was represented in my blog. However, if you feel that you somehow helped, pat yourself on the back.

Nah, no pat on yhe back necessary. Those who need help don't always understand or recognize they need it, let alone ask for it. After 'What Abe Would Say', I just wanted to be sure you had some help...

http://www.livinglakecountry.com/blogs/communityblogs/its_hemmer_time.html

I added a sentence to my blog stating that Kahane was a conservative writer. Guess I gave my readers too much credit that they could figure it out on their own, and that this was a piece of satire. Guess the old adage is true: Keep it simple. Happy, Locke?

Just happy I could help...

Amy...again, one of your best blog posts. Yes, my respect for my country would like me to see Republicans lower themselves into the cesspool liberal democrats truly thrive in and show daily. However, that would place Republicans just as low as the hate filled and un-American liberal democrats have become.

The only way to get this done and done legally is to slowly let the dishonest and unbalanced MSM go under as so many are. Maybe, just maybe, America will see how offensive liberalism is to the success of this nation. But it will take most liberals to start thinking on their own and not let the MSM do that for them.

Actually, a sad commentary and not a great entry.
Pointless. In the end, meaningless to 'your cause'. You're hold on reality is slim. We understand this.

Stop projecting all your own personal faults and failings onto others and try actually taking responsibility for yourself instead of blaming others. For someone trying to convince everyone else that others are hate-filled, the more you babble, the more it seems like you're not trying to convince everyone else, but that you're trying desperately hard to convince yourself.

More hate and anger filled rhetoric from the neocons. Ho-HUM. This really is boring after awhile isn't it?

"wrote it from the viewpoint of a liberal"

It's quite impossible for a neocon or other non-liberal thinker to think like a liberal. That's simply by the definition of the words themselves.

Sorry if your entire blog gets invalidated by websters. You'll need to talk to the people that define the words if you don't like that.

Let me see Sarah Palin said it was the mean old media for one to reason's poor poor Sarah not plan or tall.

Maybe she only has the spine of a DIVA, but lacks the backbone or a politican.

I agree, taking the laid back approach is not going to help conservatives regain the White House. Life is too short to compromise time and resources... it may be tempting and more comfortable to just keep your head down, plod along, and appease those who demand: "Sit down and shut up", but that's the worthless, easy path; that's a quitter's way out. And a problem in our country today is apathy. It would be apathetic to just hunker down and "go with the flow".

Nah, only dead fish "go with the flow".

Lake Country Progressive: Try writing just one comment without using the word "neocon." (I could almost write your comments for you, they have become so predictable.) I know, it's a real challenge for you, but give it your best shot!

Interesting, that's last comment could be almost used word for word regarding your topics...

Locke: Are you a psychiatrist? If so, I'd have to say you have me pegged wrong. I am actually quite happy. I have a wonderful husband and family, friends, and I work at a part-time job during the school year that I enjoy. I also do many things that interest me as well as our children. Our family attends church, although not as often as we should. I am involved in our kids athletic organizations and I also play volleyball -going on several years now too numerous to count. I volunteer, and chair numerous functions at our schools. I enjoy reading and politics! I am healthy and have a good life. And you know what, my husband and I worked hard to get where we are today - something Obama and Co. frown upon!

What makes me angry and disgusted is the current political climate - and what the socialists in charge of our great country are doing. And, by being a conservative blogger, I am priviledged to have a tool at my disposal in order voice my opinions and report facts from a conservative perspective. You know, get the truth out there. The truth that Dems and the mainstream media refuses to acknowledge. A perspective that is sadly lacking due to the Barack Obama Fan Club reporting that we see too often these days.

...and you're so happy that you felt the need to explain yourself and your likes and activities when it comes to (effectively) a complete stranger...
Are you trying to convince me that you're happy, or yourself and those around you? I don't expect an answer.

You're oblivious to the previous administration's failures and desperate to blame everything on the current one.

Again, This is not unexpected.

Guess I'm just damned if I do and damned if I don't, huh Locke?
Whatever.

Locke - Do you know Amy said I live in Milwaukee in a multi-ethnic area because I have white guilt.

I suppose I should move to an all white area to prove that I don't have it.

We need to be more like Nixon and Rove. You are right.

Jacob - The evangelization of the white guilt meme is just another way to codify and continue providing an excuse for continued racism. By using that label, the one's accusing usually are abdicating any responsibility for their veiled racist viewpoints, even though in general they believe and usually are nice and well-mannered to "those people".

Over time it should lessen further, though I am sure it will still be propagated even as those types of behaviors continue to dissipate toward a marginalized and remote point.

Amy, as soon as you and other loonies on the right recognize the President for what he is and not what you want him to be the happier your will be. He is a Center left President and NOT a socialist. Demonizing and playing "the ends justify the means" have been a staple of Republican Politics from the start. Think McCathy, Reagan and most outrageously Bush "W". Sarah Palin was hated for her hate mongering and racists undertones. She is demonized for those qualities that in a progressives mind make her unfit to lead a nation, let alone local state. When so many qualified Republicans could have been chosen to be McCain's running mate his choice to try to win over "Hillary" voters was self serving and amongst many reasons he lost the election. As far as the Democratic Party being the party of Segregation. You were right, a lot of racist segregationist were Democrats in the South, but defected to the Republican party when the Democrats took threw them out and embraced the platform you see in action today.

@ Victor, re: your quote

"Sarah Palin only frightens lefties because we are patriots, and would be horrified that someone as self-interested and unqualified might have a chance at higher office... it is a poor reflection on our citizenry that someone so low could reach so high".

Replace "Sahra Palin" and "lefties" with "Barack Obama" and "righties", and that statement still stands true!

Not trying to start anything, just thought that was funny. I usually enjoy your posts @ your blog.

Amy, it's all bait and switch with the liberals--I find about ONE comment in here that addressed your post (and that was Jim) and all but one that were about inflating their own egos and inventing reasons to attack you, or blame Bush (or even Nixon--that's 30 years ago!!!), or try to "explain" obama ("center-left"--if they started at communism as the center). You have them perfectly pegged. Keep writing interesting, entertaining, and intelligent blogs.

1. Only if you want to be...(damned that is)

2. That's between you and your god. (your belief, your own self condemnation)

3. Probably (snark)

4. I actually wouldn't say so...

We can embrace love; it's not too late.
Why do we sleep, instead, with hate?
Belief requires no suspension
to see that Hell is our invention.
We make Hell real; we stoke its fires.
And in its flames our hope expires.
Heaven, too, is merely our creation.
We can grant ourselves out own salvation.
All that's required is imagination.

Amy's one to talk about dems "fighting dirty." Last June Amy stated that:

"Should Barack Obama become the next President of the United States, we can expect more terrorist attacks like 9/11 on U.S. soil. Given that Obama has clearly indicated he wishes the U.S. to lose in Iraq, terrorists will lose no time in regrouping and attacking the United States once again...Don't say you haven't been warned."*

http://www.livinglakecountry.com/blogs/communityblogs/45007502.html

Like Jim Hayett exposed himself, and now AJ, the kind of dirty fighting that conservaties like them desire, is an attack on the US. That's some love you have for your country, like this guy.

http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2009/07/only_osama_can_save_us_from_ob.php#more

Which is the way you turkeys want to fight dirty -- so you can have your "I told you so" moment.

That's some partnership you have with terrorists, Amy.

"Interesting, that's last comment could be almost used word for word regarding your topics..."

How hard is it for the neocons to figure it out? Am I operating way up at the 6th grade level and that's just too high?

"What makes me angry and disgusted is the current political climate -"

No... It's that you indulge in the hate and anger from FOX noise and advertising channel every day. All they do is promote hate and anger.

Definition
=======

the mainstream media: not FOX noise and advertising.

Locke...do you even have a clue how to address ones blog post topic? I see you too have difficulty when the facts are way over your head.

I expect that from Lake County Progressive, since we know who he is, but I thought just maybe one liberal here could address the topic.

How do you explain this comment in Amy's blog?

"In other words, stop thinking of the Democratic Party as merely a political party, because it’s much more than that. We’re not just the party of slavery, segregation, secularism, and sedition. Not just the party of Aaron Burr, Boss Tweed, Richard J. Croker, Bull Connor, Chris Dodd, Richard Daley, Bill Ayers, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, and Emperor Barack Hussein Obama II. Not just the party of Kendall “Agent 202” Myers, the State Department official recruited as a Cuban spy along with his wife during the Carter administration. Rather, think of the Democratic Party as what it really is: a criminal organization masquerading as a political party."

We all know who Ajohnson and BillyJ is too. Jim Hayett. His ego needs to invent manifestations of himself to agree with himself. Obviously, Planet Jimbo Hayett™ is exactly like Hemmer, and can't wait for a new terrorist attack.

Like the terrorist, these conservatives lay in waiting like snipers to bomb their opposition with "I told you so."

Actually, Jim, I think very few liberals really read through my posts and/or understand them. In their eagerness to attack me with their keyboards, they start typing without thinking. All they see is my name and they go ballistic. Well, good!!! I hope I keep them frothing at the mouth. This country needs to stand up to the lefties and socialists out there who hate America and wish to see it rebuilt, like Barry & Co. are trying to do. It needs to be stopped. We need to be strong and fight back. After all, the well-being of America is at stake. I personally do not want our country to become another Venezuela.

The best quote from David Kahane's article needs repeating:

"think of the Democratic Party as what it really is: a criminal organization masquerading as a political party."

I just love the hypocrisies of you such honest, god-fearing Americans like yourselves Hemmer. Hemmer spins the post that democrats fight dirty, and then states again how much she loves the quote that the dems are "a criminal organization."

And she says we ignore her words.

If that was the case, how would I know that she seeks a partnership by Al Queda and other terrorists so that she can then sit back and tell us that "we were warned."

Jim is one to talk about "terrorists dancing in the streets" while one of his ilk is happily waiting and praying for it by her own words.

And that's what Hemmer Hayett et al would like us to ignore.

Hemmer:

"think of the Democratic Party as what it really is: a criminal organization masquerading as a political party."

Considering the piece was written as 'satire', the opposite would be more indicatively correct obviously. (Republican Criminal Family)

Whatever.

"I think very few liberals really read through my posts and/or understand them."

Woe is you...the misunderstood and the persecuted...
That kind of comment is nothing more than the whine of those who have their statements reviewed, disputed, and proven wrong when they do not and can not admit that they are wrong.

Sorry, libs. I do not feel misunderstood or persecuted. Love how you try to analyze me, then complain when I rebuke your conclusions. Then my rebukes are analyzed. And so on. I realize I am in a no-win situation. Whatever makes you happy, as long as you can ignore what my blogs are about and keep the focus on me! You do liberalism proud.

As far as I am concenred Scott Pof LLC blogs gives Amy and Jim a free pass.

It's obvious with what they get away with.

You too beat the ref's, you should be proud.

Dear Readers,

Hello, I am Amy L. Geiger-Hemmer. I am a conservative and then I am American. I always put my party first so then I can accuse everyone else of not being an American when they don't follow my party line. I am in such a no-win situation all the time because of this! Please, ignore the fact that when I spin something, I ha ha, apparently don't really mean it.

So I 'll just accuse my critics of ignoring my posts, my spin, and whine about how I am so attacked.

But don't worry, when the terrorists attack (and I pray they will) you democrats will be the ones that I'll accuse of playing dirty and I will have to joyfully remind you that I did, indeed, warn you.

Oh I love America. I really do.

Love,
Amy L. Geiger-Hemmer

To my readers: Please excuse MC Pickard's recent comments. He appears very frustrated since he recently lost his blogging priviledges and is taking out his anger on my blog sites. I have notified the blog monitors that Pickard is attempting to use my blog sites as his own personal bulletin boards. Hopefully this situation will be addressed shortly.

I agree with the topic. The neocons need to get a backbone. They need intelligence. They need leadership. In fact, they need to become liberals.

It's no wonder the war lasted until a liberal was put in charge. The wack-o necon criminal bush regime obviously had no backbone to get the job done.

"notified the blog monitors"

Get a backbone. Why do you need government to do everything for you?

"I realize I am in a no-win situation"

All neocons are in the same boat. Lack of intelligence has that effect.

I illustrated the point that you and Jim can personally flame and attack anyone you want with impunity. When a liberal does, we have comments removed and blogs banned.

Recall, you were banned, like Jim too for a week. Unfortunately you did not learn your lesson and after Erin left you went back to your same old bag of tricks. That old bag is you.

So old bag, you have all the privileges to flame and personally attack whoever you want, and the Conservatively biased LLC will allow you do so.

Conservatives, must have their privileges you know -- without the affirmative action of LLC you and your trolling flaming posts would be left naked in the wilderness without an audience.

Conservatives and Republicans have just been too laid back, content in the belief that honesty, integrity, and doing the right things matter."....satire at its best.

The Pickard Brothers squared sound like a broken record. I apologize on their behalf, since it seems they are, like Michael Jackson, stuck in perpetual childhood. Unable to admit that they screwed up, were banned from blogging - because of things they wrote. Foul language, nasty name calling, etc. Instead, they are attempting to blame Jim Hayett and myself for all their own issues. Too bad, guys.
Keep those inane comments coming. You know, the ones that have absolutely NOTHING to do with my blogs, but continue to be personal attacks. And don't blame me when you are once again banned.

Don't say you haven't been warned."* sounds like a Cheney quote...

How do you explain this comment in Amy's blog?

"In other words, stop thinking of the Democratic Party as merely a political party, because it’s much more than that. We’re not just the party of slavery, segregation, secularism, and sedition.

That's satire Jim..

Liberals love people like Colin Powell who spank the Republican party. I don't see Democrats running around trashing their party but people like Powell who openly supports Obama is a good Republican? You're not fooling me!

Liberals love people like Colin Powell who spank the Republican party. I don't see Democrats running around trashing their party but people like Powell who openly supports Obama is a good Republican? You're not fooling me!

Targa: Exactly. Just like the liberal media loved John McCain as the choice for the presidential nominee for the Republican party. A RINO if there ever was one. The press loved him, because they knew he was really a Dem and didn't uphold many conservative values. Then, as we know, he actually got the nod. Once he was up against Obama, the press turned on him, as expected, cuz Obama was their man. Lesson learned.
Conservatives and Republicans need to nominate TRUE representatives of their party -not the RINO's. People don't want phony Republicans in office.

Great column, Amy. I loved the National Review article by Kahane when it was published. I support everything you've advocated except breaking the law, which (I hope) was sarcasm. We need to take the gloves off and start punching.

"Challenge everything the Democrats do and/or try to do. Challenge their leadership. Question their character. Look into their backgrounds. Make some noise. Slime their leaders. Beat up on the Barack Obama Fan Club (aka: mainstream media)."

Right on.

Sarah Palin scares them to death because she is a woman, she is a fighter, she is a conservative, and try as they might, they can't dig up any dirt on her. I ran across your blog when running a Google News search on Walter Kendall Myers, one of the many suppressed and underreported stories about treason by liberals. (You can bet that if Myers had been a conservative, it would have been the lead story on CBS for a week.) I'll have to look in again.

I'm a freelance writer for Newsmax, living in the Chicago suburbs for my whole life: a safe distance from the Chicago machine, but close enough to see the corruption and smell the stench.

In March 2008, when Obama was cruising toward the Democratic nomination and had won eight primaries in a row, a Newsmax story of mine came to the attention of the national news media. I had written that Obama was still attending the church of Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who made such phrases as "the United States of White America" notorious.

Obama lost six of the next eight primaries, some by very wide margins. What looked like an unstoppable march to the nomination became a razor-thin victory. If my Newsmax story had reached the national consciousness just two weeks earlier, Hillary would have been the nominee.

Anyway, I think you have my email address now, so stay in touch.
