This is getting too easy.
When I was going to college back in the sixties one of the knocks on conservatives was that they were all hard-hearted, mean, violent, racist, etc. When people would ask for examples of such execrable attitudes and behavior they were often met with stunned silence, like one gets when one asks for evidence that the sky is really blue. That conservatives were crass, tasteless, red-necks was something everyone in those years just took for granted, but no one could really give any evidence for.
The myth persists to this day. Just look at how the Tea Party has been caricatured as racist and dumb by the left-wing media even though not a single example of bigotry has been adduced and many Tea Party supporters have proven to be much more intelligent and successful than their left-wing critics would have dreamed possible.
On the other hand, examples of liberal racism, anti-semitism, crudity and violent rhetoric are as abundant as they are ignored by our watchdog media. We've featured them often on this site, so much so in fact that it's getting boring. Even so, lest we forget what sort of people tend to gravitate to the left side of the ideological spectrum I offer here another illustration.
This one features someone named Chris Titus who purports to be a comedian. He's appearing on the Adam Corolla Show:
Just as sickening as Titus' pledge to assassinate Sarah Palin is the audience's reaction to it. What sort of people are these who would laugh at such a boast? What's funny about this? Don't they realize how tawdry, base and disgusting they make themselves? Don't they care? To get an idea how strange and perverse such a reaction is and how tendentious the media silence, imagine the reaction if, say, Rush Limbaugh cracked such a "joke" about Barack Obama.
Anyway, recall how, in the wake of the Gabrielle Giffords shooting everyone was blaming "right-wing hate speech" for the murders even though no one could produce an example of it. Yet there's a plethora of examples provided by liberals of this very thing, but for some reason those don't seem to matter. When liberals laugh at the prospect of murdering a political figure, why, they're actually good people, you know, and they don't really mean it. If conservatives were to do it - though I'm not aware of any prominent conservative celebrity ever doing such a detestable thing - the outrage would be volcanic, as it should be.
I don't intend to imply that everyone on the Left is a sleaze. They're not, of course. There are many fine people who count themselves as liberals, but one would think after the last couple of years of hearing this sort of rhetoric from their ideological compatriots that they'd be asking themselves what in the world it is about liberalism that attracts so many low-lifes like Mr. Titus, and whether they really want to be associated with the view of the world that Titus' ilk finds so attractive.
