You conservatives are just silly. You conservatives this. You conservatives that. You are wrong if you are a conservative. Even if you are right, you are wrong, you conservative you. I know this, because I constantly call you "conservative" and I mean it as an insult. Go home and cry for the next 7.5 years, you whiny conservatives. Read the BOOK Conservatives if you dare!

"Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto
by Mark R. Levin

This book is #1 on the New York Times Best seller list. Read the book and you will see why!!

After reading the book, the case AGAINST the great Zeus Obama is made very clear. Liberals can squawk all they want in support of their great teleprompter king but the FACTS speak volumes. READ THE BOOK liberals ...if you DARE!!!"

Hey Mark. Stop promoting your stupid book. No one is going to read or buy it. I hope your commissions are abysmal. If your post is any indication of the content of your book then I wouldn't want to waste my time reading a more long winded version of the idiocy that you posted here.

Mr. Bender, If Obama was really a tyrant you would have the FBI at your door taking you away for critizing the president.

Never heard of either book. Don't think either book made it on the best seller list of the NY Times. Mark Levin's book is #1 on that list - and for GOOD REASON - people across America IDENTIFY with the OBAMA Tyranny currently consuming this nation!

All the tyranny started 8 years ago and now the neocons, refusing to accept any responsibility for it, are trying to blame a man who has only been in office for six months.

LOL!
Obama a tyrant? | 4:46 p.m. July 2, 2009
Osama Hussin Obama a tyrant? A socialist? Gee, what on earth would make you think such a thing? Maybe his record?? His policies?

I can see why right-wing-nut-jobs would go for MARK MALARKY LEVIN. NO ONE on AM RADIO spews more hate than MALARKY. If you really want to ween yourself off of talk radio, listen to the mouth that roars everynight.

MALARKY was once an ATTORNEY for the GOVERNMENT (DEPT OF ED. NO LESS). He now makes a living making fun of the very same people he once called friends.

This guy is the EPITOME OF HYPOCRICY.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE continue to trot this guy out as the face and voice of RE-PUBLICAN CONSERVATISM.

Well said, Mr. Bender. Thank you.

Tyranny?
Where was this guy 8 and 4 years ago when an administration conducted America's first and only pre-emptive war based on lies and accused those who disagreed of being traitors to their country?
And what about the wire-tapping (illegal) of its citizens? And what about a surplus turning into a deficit during that time?
Such stupid, stupid conservatives!
To Mr. Bender | 6:26 p.m. July 2, 2009
If President Obama is, in your "opinion", a tyrant, what have we been enduring before him? I am glad that some things in the country are actually being addressed and worked on. We had reached "critical mass" and something had to be done. He has been in office 6 months and look at all he is working on. Better than sitting on his backside and not getting anything done!

"This book is #1 on the New York Times Best seller list. Read the book and you will see why!!"

A conservative book written by a conservative hack. And why does this book get to be #1? Usually because conservative orgainizations buy these books in bulk and give them away to the faithful and the people for whom the books are targeted.

There is little factual material in his book. Rather it is a compendium of conservative talking points. Nothing of any value to any independent reader beyond the usual diatribe contracted for the conservative media at significant compensation for the writer.

Anyone can get the same invective from similar conservative writers like Ann Coulter and Michelle Malkin. It's all the same stuff. And the wingnuts gobble it up like there's no tomorrow.

Get over the brain washing you have recieved from the media for the past, who knows how long...
Obama is not for the poor, and Bush is not for the rich. Just keep saying it until it becomes reality.
Real reality is that Obama will make the middle class and the poor much poorer and jobless. How's that going to put food on the table?

The sheer ignorance that oozes from these blogs never ceases to amaze me. Let alone the fact that Dnews actually prints letters like this.
Uh, Russell Bender... | 12:29 a.m. July 4, 2009
... you didn't say what Obama's doing to resemble a dictator or tyrant.

So come on, man. It's obvious you don't like him, and that's your right as an American. But it's also your responsibility as an educated citizen of this country to discuss relevant issues intelligently and back up your assertions with FACTS.

I'm no fan of Obama, either, but I'm not buying into THIS rather hasty and curious line of discussion without some actual evidence. So I, for one, and several others as well, await your answer:

Again, exactly what has Obama done to begin to resemble a dictator or a tyrant?
Jond | 6:48 a.m. July 4, 2009
Alot of the things people say about Bush and the Republican congress are true. The problem is that Pres. Obama promised it would be different.
Brian Privett | 4:04 p.m. July 5, 2009
Amoung all the praise for President Obama, I praise him not. I caught Obama's speech Thursday while I was on the dialysis machine and the comment He made to a question asked of him about small businesses was just plain sick. Obama had coporate CEO's standing around him during His speech, and the response Obama gave was for small businesses was to call these CEO's and ask them about ways to save on their energy bills. You obama praisers don't find it strange that Obama's administration bails out failing corporate businesses but provides no help for struggling small businesses? It's the small businesses that create jobs not the corporate businesses.
