Where Is The Conservative Outrage Over This?

Conservatives don't care how many Americans die through our own stupidity, selfishness, carelessness, greed or insanity. That's the price of freedom, they say, where freedom is defined as the ability to buy weapons of mass destruction on demand.

But they really get outraged if terrorists kill Americans. What conservatives just don't seem to understand is that the terrorists believe they are exercising exactly the same right of self-defense that conservatives claim they are -- protecting their freedom from outside interference they believe is destroying their way of life. (After the baseless invasion of Iraq by Bush after 9/11, it's easy to see why the terrorists would think so.)

But the biggest outrage for conservatives seems to be when terrorists kill Americans and the president doesn't yell "terrorist" enough times during the first press conference after the killings.

You got a cite for those figures?

What are we going to do when we can't work up a good case of outrage at our favorite partisan target?

GuardDuck said...

No cite then huh?


Are you posting false information? Again?

Mark Ward said...

Am I? Why don't you do the research and find out for yourself? Post your results here and prove the graphic wrong.

GuardDuck said...

Oh, is that how it works in your world? Post allegations, accusations or "facts" without supporting citations and it's up to others to disprove them rather than you to actually back up your assertions?


Well, since that's been your modus for years, why change now?


Since that's acceptable actions, let's try this:

97% of people with the screen name Markadelphia lie over 82% of the time.


Should I back up that statement? Or should I demand you do the work to disprove it?

Teachers consistently score lowest in IQ testing, fact.

GuardDuck said...

Social studies teachers are 125% more likely to be pedophiles - studies say.

GuardDuck said...

Prove those wrong.

Mark Ward said...

Don't you want to prove me wrong? Think of how embarrassed I will be! Perhaps you are not that sure of yourself but no mattter...

Here is how our conversations are going to work from now on, GD. I will make an assertion (as I did here with this post). You are welcome to disagree and present evidence that states otherwise. Then we will go from there. If not, I'm gone. I have much more interesting and adult conversations to have elsewhere. My responsibility to my commenters does not translate into me wasting my time with games.

I'm also done with you redirecting away from the original point of posts. I'll make an attempt or two to get you back on track and if that doesn't work, again, gone. The point of this one is wondering why there has been so much outrage over Benghazi, in which 4 Americans died in what was essentially a war zone, and zero outrage over school shootings like Newtown. Wait, I take that back. There was outrage over children being slaughtered at Newtwon...outrage over your guns being taken away. That's what this post is about. You guys being assholes. Don't agree?

Defend yourself.

Juris Imprudent said...

That's what this post is about. You guys being assholes.

Then why do you pretend to welcome our comments? Are you really operating under the belief that we are your punching bag?

GuardDuck said...

Well Mark, we've been saying for years that you aren't honest.

At least now you've finally given up even the pretense of honesty.

Honesty? Yes.

Does a honest man make a claim and provide the references for that claim? Yes he does.

Does an honest man make a claim and REFUSE to provide any references for the claim? No. That is the mark of a dishonest man.


Knowingly dishonest for that matter. Yep. You are a natural liar.

GuardDuck said...

Soooo, by your silence to my assertion that you are 125% more likely to be a pedophile I take it you agree it to be the truth?

GuardDuck said...

he point of this one is wondering why there has been so much outrage over Benghazi,


So, in other words you are saying it's OK for you to post untruthful things as long as it's for the right reasons?

Think of how embarrassed I will be!

Yeah, right. You're as embarrass-able as a syphilitic Neapolitan whore when the fleet's in port.
