What I find amazing beyond anything…

Comments

…is while reading conservative blogs to get their perspective on the massive AIG bailout, that I see how many on the right find ways to blame Democrats despite years of Republican power in the White House, and their ongoing debacle to deregulate the market since Ronald Reagan.

Look at this idiocy:

Rush Limbaugh finds connections between Fannie Mae executives donations to the Democratic party to come to the bizaare conclusion that the mortgage mess is the fault of Democrats.

Michelle Malkin doesn’t place blame, but read the comments on her post about the AIG bailout from her readers finding ways to connect the problem with Democrats and their socialist ways, even though it is a Republican administration bailing out these fools.

No Quarter, the most despicable site on the internet, always pushing the most ridiculous lies to fuel Obama hatred, finds a way to use credit crisis to attack Obama’s judgement.

Ed Morrissey, a Republican political hack who without fail always seems to find a way to spin things against Democrats, sees connections between Social Security policy of Democrats and the current crisis.

Now I admit that progressive blogs like the Huffington Post, the Daily Kos are also guilty of unwavering partisanship and misleading spin. But to fathom the sheer extent of the malicious lies written by people who know they’re lying just disgusts me to no end. I wish it were possible to hold these people accountable for what they’re doing. It’s pure fiction. People like Ed Morrissey have absolute no credibility. These blogs, including the liberal trash I mentioned previously, are doing nobody any favors. Feigned outrage at every little thing that could possibly be construed into a game changing gaffe is all I ever read on Memeorandum these days. I really hope that the vast majority of online readers are able to see beyond this absolute garbage. Given what I read in the comments however, I don’t have much hope.

I wish a sense of decency prevailed. The thing is, that Republican bloggers are always blabbing on about American values and decency, and yet they (along with some progressive bloggers also) show so little of it in themselves.

Stop Fucking Lying.
