I know you guys BELIEVE Acorn is planning huge protests, but really, the left doesn't care that much. How do I know that? I'm a card carrying member of the left- and the way you guys blow up the significance of ACORN is like the left and it's mythology about Bush suspending elections. Just for giggles I decided to google that: prospect.org yup- pretty much as I expected. And as for derision? The right has earned it. They did a stupid thing. If the left launched Dutch Rudder War Protests, I think the right would be laughing (heck even I would be laughing)- if they knew what it was. tcunation.com patriotdepot.com All you have to do is go to the internet- you'll find 100's of things like the one above. I don't NEED to watch any Satan's of the right, all I need to do is spend a second googling- but I understand why you don't want to do that. It's always embarrassing when the folks on "our side" do something that's both stupid and funny. "Implied hatred"? That's pretty funny. You don't need to hate someone to laugh at them when they are clueless, and in terms of real venomous hate, you need look no further than many corners of the right. It's really not the left's fault the conservatives embraced the tea bag.
