Stupidity gets on my nerves but my blood really boils when this stupidity is mired by ugliness. This is what Daily Kos does to me. These guys simply make me want to vomit.
The last things I expected is them gleeing over the death of Abdul Sattar Abu Risha, the Anbar tribal leader who was killed by Al-Qaeda for leading the region’s oppositon to these mass murderers. These people at Daily Kos just make me sick. Isn’t so hard to differentiate between their hatred to George Bush and a man who lost his life simply because he doesn’t want Al-Qaeda to rule his area. What did you want Risha to do? Join Al-Qaeda and kill American soldiers?
Daily Kos, you amaze me at how low you can get. You’re utterly disgusting.
And why is this post titled Daily “Pussy”? Because “kos” is Arabic slang word for pussy. How fitting.
What did [the Kos Kids] want Risha to do? Join Al-Qaeda and kill American soldiers?
Yes.
The Maliki government is fortunate in the despicable nature of its enemies. It is an easy choice between them and al-Qaeda.
Bush is equally fortunate. In fact, it appears Bush’s and Maliki’s enemies are united in purpose and esteem for each other.

Yes Daily Kos and its readers are truly despicable.

I don’t remember politics being so nasty before Bush. For some reason,some people not only hate him,but feel compelled to let you know it 24/7. Maybe there were always folks like that out there,and they just didn’t have a forum to vent. It’s not like someone would pay a plugged nickle to read Daily Kos. But blogs are free.

Daily Kos’s hatred of Bush runs so deep they’d sell their country out in a blink of the eye, they’d sell their mother into prostitution, for the opportunity to hurt him. Thus their glee at the murder of sunnis opposed to AQ. It “hurts Bush”.

ps., I only drop by occassionally, but I’m glad you’re alive and still blogging. It’d be a real loss if you decided to throw in the towel. Your voice is appreciated.

That’s pretty fucked up, but I’ve seen worse shit on LGF and JihadWatch. But you never seem to condemn them.
Can’t condemn one extreme while staying silent over the other. Why not condemn both extremes.

>>>Why not condemn both extremes.
Because not all extremes are equally worthy of condemnation. LGF and Jihadwatch are “extreme” in their opposition to jihad and islamism. That’s good “extremism.”

kos (spelled kosz) means dirt in Hungarian

Kos is a bird in polish, but kosz means a waste basket. I think the second word more closely reflect the said site.

“Because not all extremes are equally worthy of condemnation. LGF and Jihadwatch are “extreme” in their opposition to jihad and islamism. That’s good “extremism.””
Uh right, if you consider rounding up all Muslims and killing every single one of them is good, then you are obviously no different from the jihadists.
It’s quite ironic how people who accuse others of being barbaric often have no problem with barbarity when it is on their sides.
So John, do you think all Muslims should be sent to Auschwitz and sent to the gas chambers, as an LGF commenter once said?
When you have a Congressman who advocates nuking Mecca and Medina, is that not extremism?

Couldn’t agree more with anonymous. Worse and more dangerously hateful shit happens on LGF all the time but is dismissed.
Comment by Sumer — September 16, 2007 @ 12:56 pm
The only reason you can perhaps blame LGF of is the many islam-related articles in which he mainly focuses on jihadists. Problem is only that these jihadists make themselves worth mentioning. Perhaps LGF should focus more on moderates (as well). Because nowadays,… reading LGF is only depressing.
But so far I could see Charles never called up for rounding up and killing muslims. If you can show me otherwise, I stand corrected.
Kos, however, seems to like anything anti-american. Even if that means that if their view would become policy, many more innocent people would die than currently - as BP indirectly pointed out in his example where Kos kids prefer Al Qaeda to rule over the people than anti-violent extremists.
(gee, never thought I’d be defending LGF)

Same in Hebrew. I always read that Web site title that way too. Just happens.

He never did.
‘LGF is just as bad’ is a typical left-wing reaction to bad news.

Before Bush certain ideologies were not challenged.
Suddenly multiculturalism is under fire, just because some of the cultures under its umbrella are violent death cults.
And the left could feel secure in the knowledge that all conservatives were fascist scum.
But now the conservative fascist scum is hated by white supremacists, supports Jews, attacks nationalist dictators, and points out that it was Europe and Russia who supported the deadly dictators and not the US.
Bush challenged the two core beliefs of the left: “we are not the fascists” and “the US support evil dictators”. That would lead to nasty, I suppose.
It will return to normal once the left realise that being “left” does not automatically make you the good guy.
P.S.: Ever seen an “anti-war activist” protest a war against Israel? Neither have I.

Uh, there are 3 meanings of “pussy” in English. If you’re using slang, then you must mean it’s use as a descriptive metaphor for the female sex organ?
Please explain more clearly ….
Comment by Brian H — September 17, 2007 @ 12:31 pm
This is really stupid of them; Bush was wrong to invade Iraq the way he did, and he compounded this mistake by mismanaging it. However, Democrats are wrong to advocate pulling out of it now; they own the mess as much as Republicans do.
And more importantly, the glee displayed by the idiot who posted this, and some of his respondents, is beneath contempt…. zbelet el Bacharyieh..

I find it great that you would call out Kos they are traitors to the USA and in another time they would have been tried and hung oh well we reap what we sow in this country. LGF has never called for rounding up Muslims and killing them and I submit that a kos kid posted that.

that sort of comment gets deleted as it is done by an agent provator to cause just this sort of opinion.
