When Republicans speak up...

Creepy story from MyDD. They point out that major right-wing blogs don't allow comments on their posts. Except for one, Little Green Footballs. And here's a sample of what their 'conservative' readership is saying about the War on Terror vis a vis the London bombings.

  • "If there are no Arabs there are no attacks. How many more need be sacrificed?"

  • "It is now time to force muslims to make a choice: Live peacefully or die. I prefer the latter."

  • "We need to stop fucking with these people and kill every one involved. I mean anyone with prior knowledge, anyone who payed for it, and anyone who supported it. Regardless of nationality."
  • "subhumans, first time on 2 feet...round em all up, every friggin' last one of them...unfortunately, I still think it will take even more violence from the Arabs before the West wakes up and goes savage on em"

  • "Martyring Muslims doesn't seem to make much of a difference to the fanatics. What is needed is to take their human capital out their hands - their children. No more warped children, no more jihadis. "

Encouraging, isn't it? Aside from CEOs and fundamentalist kooks, these are Bush's staunchest and most vocal allies-- bigots, imbeciles and fascists. I grew up around plenty of them.
