Need some help with vile conservative rhetoric for a LTTE
I'm responding to this LTTE (sorry, no direct link...) This is an anonymous Speak-Out column that is pretty active. Please feel free to submit yourself, just use a local town in Connecticut (Enfield, Vernon, Stafford & Manchester are good) and keep it fairly short... thanks

Siding Against Liberals
As a moderate independent voter, I am more a inclined to side against liberals. I have noticed the rhetoric is more vile and dishonest from liberals than it was from conservatives when a Democrat was president. The hypocrisy and dishonesty from Democrats combined with the scandals and false reporting from the liberal media such as the NY Times, LA Times, our Hartford paper, CBS and now Newsweek, leaves me no choice but to no longer place any trust with Democrats. They have become nothing but far left activists that place power over the best interests of our great country. One only needs to consider the gradual increasing transfer of power away from Democrats to conclude that I am not the only moderate that feels this way.

I have already submitted on LTTE to them correcting the "liberal" media things... I'd like some examples of far right rhetoric, though.

Thanks

1. I propose...
that the author is neither independent nor moderate and from where s/he stands the center looks left.

2. You could start off with "What in the world are you talking about??"
From DU Hatemail Bag, No. 25. I think it fits in response to that letter:

"DU RESPONDS: You mean like Iraq having weapons of mass destruction? Iraq having links to al Qaeda? Iraq having a connection to 9/11? Iraqis throwing flowers at the feet of our soldiers? The war paying for itself? The troops coming home by Christmas? The war makes the world safer? Tax cuts for the rich reducing the deficit and balancing the budget? Privatization solving the Social Security shortfall? Saying you support the troops and then closing down dozens of military bases and putting thousands out of work? Improving the economy by outsourcing jobs to India? Trying and failing to change Senate rules as part of an unconstitutional partisan power-grab? I'm sorry, what were you saying?"

4. Remind them of the death and bomb threats
during the Shiavo case. Also the man who tryed to buy a gun to kill mr. Shiavo, and the attempt to pay for a hit on him. mention the veiled threats to the judiciary spouted by republicon leaders during the Shiavo case.

Also, we have rhetoric in the world being very heated indeed, not only between the Middle east and America, but America and the world.
