Much 'hate speech' comes from liberals

A Fence Post letter of Aug. 17th, clearly demonstrates how much liberals want to stop any speech that confronts their phony core beliefs.

The writer accuses talk radio of promulgating hate speech. Let's see some real facts about "hate speech" and who said it.

Michelle Obama says that she's proud of America for the first time. What? She lives under the protection of America. Maybe she should go to Saudi Arabia and criticize that government. She'll see how liberal they are real fast.

Talk about inflammatory speech; look at the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's commentaries about America. Enough said; we're all familiar with his volatile views.

How about the Rev. Michael Pfleger who threatened to "snuff out" (his words) a legitimate gun shop owner. And threatened the same for state legislators too.

He also tried to block that owner from conducting his legally sanctioned business. And this is a Catholic priest who is "best pals" with Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan. Setting a great example, isn't he?

Or, the Reverend Jesse Jackson commenting about New York being "Hymie Town." Or the Rev. Jackson's commentary about the phony Duke rape case.

Barack called his own grandmother "a typical white person" (his words). Incendiary? I think so. And, Barack accused small town people of becoming bitter and clinging to their guns and religion. Inflammatory? You bet.

Who's promoting "hate talk" now? Gee, I wonder?
