SubscribeBehold The Left’s Obscene Hatred Of… Us
The folks over at American Digest happened across what the “famous” Beverly Hills photographer Jill Greenberg did with the out takes from her cover photo shoot with John McCain.
She has proudly displayed them on her website thusly:
It has come to this.
The left hates anyone who disagrees with them this much. They are terrorists, the well poisoners of civil discourse.
But remember, Barack Obama is a “uniter.”

You mean…?? They didn’t just hate BUSH?? Next thing you know, they will be calling McCain “McHitler.”
September 15th, 2008 at 12:33 am
If they had no problem posting “art” of Bush eating dead children and the American Flag in a trash can, why should we be shocked at this one?
The left is so filled with hate they have become totally unhinged, mental cases, all of them.
Just the threats of riots if Obama loses should tell everyone what we are up against.
They don’t care squat about America, just their misguided socialist agenda of recreating the failed Soviet Union.

The Obama campaign is over. The sour grapes have started before the election. Obama is going to lose this one big. And it now looks like Democrat candidates in Congressional races are starting to worry, too.
This is what happens when maladjusted children don’t get their way.

I keep thinking I’ll wake up one morning and there will be no more a**h*les in the world behaving like dirtballs for no reason. I’m dreaming, I know.
Googled her name and came up with this from Photo Business News & Forum
http://tinyurl.com/6eq4on
The comments are mostly what a stupid thing to do, and way to shoot your career in the foot kind of thing, with a few applauding her for her politics. But a lot of them who say they’re dems think what she did was a cheap publicity stunt and way over the line. There’s also some discussion of how he could not realize he was being lit from below:
“The modeling lights were on for strobes that did not fire. Anyone who was not familiar with how studio strobes work, while they might have noticed that the downside one got brighter and the topside one didn’t, might not have realized what this meant. If she was stopped way down, she could have had the modeling light for the dish at full power and the one for the downside light off or very low, and to the casual observer, the lighting balance would have looked exactly opposite what it really was.”

This is not Ms. Greenberg’s first attack on evil Bush and Christians:
The same entry also notes:
So this progressive has no trouble whoring herself out to BIG TOBACCO and even FOX for filthy lucre.

I am surprised that my S&L friends see fit to demean the “left” here when this type of dispicable behaviour is so deeply personal. It is the rotten and putrid fruit of a loathesome individual named Jill Greenberg, not “the left”, despite the fact that she is certainly a leftist. Let’s not let her off one iota by aligning her with a group,although we certainly know of her comrades. Let’s hold up this carnage right before her face and say “Look what you have done, Jill Greenberg”, just as we would with any deranged person who commits a heinous act. This is shockingly hateful and certainly decent people of any party or persuasion would be repulsed by this.Can you imagine John McCain doing anything this malicious? Can you imagine someone so bitter and evil as Jill Greenberg ever having any influence in our society?! May God protect us!

They have an interesting perspective. Especially when they point out that for Goldberg to call the Atlantic “irresponsible” for hiring her is not good business.
But, in truth, she probably has done herself far more good than harm.
Some of her clients might chastise her gently in public. But you just know there will be some who will wink and smile — and quietly slip her more business because of this.

Oddly enough, this is one of the more articulate defenses of liberalism I have seen.

She has helped John McCain more that the wittiest post to the most conservative blog…she’s proven the depth the MSM will go to sink a Republican.
Charlie Gibson just asks sloppy questions, she admits to her bias. I just wish more liberals were as honest as her.

This lady is shockingly unprofessional and immoral. What kind of example does she think she is providing for her kids?
September 15th, 2008 at 7:53 am
Every day it gets progressively worse!
People like this “Jill G” are what largely constitute “the left”!
The lefties at “The Atlantic” who chose to run that cover shot are also greatly responsible.
At the onset I thought it might be fun watching the Left implode….but as each day goes by, it is becoming more and more sickening.
September 15th, 2008 at 8:56 am
Let’s not forget that plenty of other bloggers are spreading Jill’s filth. Example: well-known programmer/blogger Dave Winer, whom I used to think was a pretty smart guy. But he’s now cast his lot with the haters. Very sad.

I almost wonder if this election is going to be the one that pushes them over the edge–if as McCain climbs higher in the polls they’re just going to go frothing-at-the-mouth insane and humiliate themselves in print to the extent that everyone but the most die-hard liberals can see them for what they are.
Because if they do, I’ll laugh my butt off.

Jill Greenberg’s website is telling: http://www.manipulator.com. She tries to manipulate like many on the Left.
September 15th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Hiring Jill Greenberg to photograph the Republican candidate for president is like hiring Andres Serrano to photograph Pope Benedict XVI. The Atlantic should have known better, but one has to think that they expected her to behave like a grownup rather than a juvenile.
September 15th, 2008 at 1:18 pm
Further evidence of the Liberals’ implosion. I mean, what’s Greenberg’s point in doing this? Inflaming McCain supporters? Rallying Obama supporters? Both of them have already decided anyway. All she’s really done is revealed her own smallness - and by extension, the smallness of the Left. If her little tantrum gets any attention at all, the only result will be to move more undecided voters into the McCain camp as an anti-Omaba (or at least anti-Democrat) reaction.

SCARY PICTURES? OR JUST THE SAME OLE SCARED LIBERALS?
“Scary!”
I’m curious… Has anybody else here noticed that the word “scary” has become a favorite mantra for liberals whenever they’re faced with the prospect of encountering anything that isn’t exactly like them?
At first glance, any reasonable person simply dismisses warped pictures like these as being nothing more than a private, if immature and twisted, joke—mere grade school scribbles. However, the compulsive creation of conservative bogymen lurking around every corner has become so commonplace among America’s conformist liberals (alas, is there any other kind of liberal these days?) that you’ve got to wonder if there’s something more to this?
Is it just me or has the mass hysteria bouncing off the walls of the Democrat’s echo chamber grown into such a roar that they’re now clinically incapable of hearing anything but the productions of their own monstrous minds? One would think that the self-appointed apostles of tolerance and diversity could handle the political views of, oh, I dunno, half the population. without distorting them beyond recognition.
But now, with the rise of Sarah Palin, it seems that liberals have lost any and all reference points to reality (for reference, see Matt Damon, desperately treading water amidst the sea of insane distortions and misinformation that now counts as journalism). To say the least, methinks the panic button has been pushed.
What a sight. All of these weak-minded, weak-willed people forever frightened by the scary projections of their very own demonizing minds. Lacking any modicum of self-consciousness, they never fail to see so many scary things “out there,” all the while failing to see that they’re cowering at their own shadows–the creepy, dark, and eerie unreality that apparently lies in wait beneath their beddy-bys, just waiting for the opportunity to gobble them up.
It’s an amazing spectre to witness: A whole generation of unchaperoned Democrats, largely raised on manipulative advertising and never encouraged to talk back, much less “think back,” now shivers in the corner with its dunce cap on, alternately reaching out their arms for comfort or else imperiously demanding to be nursed and protected by a marshmallow Messiah who’s made of nothing more than media stuffing. And as these tired, huddled-masses-of-thumb-sucking-hysteria cuddle up to their latest political play toy, the MSM puppeteers behind the scenes, and creating the scenes, cynically prey on this addiction to infantile fantasy, most especially the biggest whopper of them all–the hope that some nonexistent superhero is gonna fly down from his lectern and swoop ‘em all up out of their cradles and save them from all of the beastly nasties out there.
I suppose the bigger question is how can adults deal with such troubled children? Well, I guess you do what Americans do every election, that is, you quietly indulge their fearful tantrums as you escort them back to their rooms for another four-year time-out.
Whatever you do, just stay calm and be sure to let ‘em know that Mamma Sarah will be there to protect them.

The one thing i never could figure out about liberals is why they are f*cking mean? i guess the fear they live with has grown so out of control they have transgressed into hate mongering nitwits.
The sad thing is their “faith” in Obama and all their other flunky loser leaders will not deliver them from anything
Putting faith into politicians is like hoping for a solvent social security program will still be around in 20 years
Fear left uncheck can lead a person down a scary path; and most liberals have been traveling down that path since 2000
I used to get really upset over liberals senseless attacks and venom that they spew; but now, i just yawn and go on; any more, they just bore me with their hysterical antics
September 15th, 2008 at 5:37 pm
I guess I’m just becoming truly aware, again, of the malignancy of the liberal media’s and left’s contempt for others underneath the veneer of their attitudes of elitist intellectual superiority. Were it not for Sarah Palin, I would not have been “energized” to take an active interest in politics once more. Why?? Because of such lack of true heart and care in the political realm and the viciousness of the media, etc. I just haven’t seen anyone, since Ronald Reagan, who had an ability to capture the interest and involvement of mainstream Americans like me. It just seemed that the Republican party was pandering to us and really was more representative of the privileged and wealthy perhaps. I had tuned out and dropped out and entered general “apathy” in involvement - though I’ve always voted.
Personally, I thought Ronald Reagan was “real”. I believe he had a warmth of sincerity and authenticity. I’m glad to see the return of sincerity and authenticity - at least a person with whom I could personally attribute those traits to in identification - in Sarah Palin. I no longer really feel like such an “independent” waiting for the emergence of a strong 3rd party creation. Sarah Palin, to me, has so altered the “brand” of the Republican party. Now I think the Republican party (with her in a high level position of influence in the party) can, for the first time in a long time, truly represent middle and working class Americans.
To me, there has already been a “Palin Revolution” very similar to the “Reagan Revolution” in the ability of the Party to grasp the hearts and minds of mainstream America. It’s no wonder the elitists are going… insane. Their behaviors seem to reveal the desperate depravity they are feeling. They are experiencing a dawning realization of their loss of power as the result of “Palin Power”. The introduction of Sarah Palin threatens to dash their hopes for holding the power of middle class and working Americans within their party. Their desire to “hold a base” securely in middle class and working Americans, and to keep that “base” from the Republican Party, in order to advance their leftist agenda has been lost. Everything has changed.
My immediate “baptism” into a return to active interest was being shocked and appalled, then outraged, by liberal senseless attacks and the venom of which buddyhacker speaks. I hope, soon, to make it through that “phase” of “re-entry”… and just smile and rise above it all… as McCain and Palin take their oaths of office.
I don’t think the left really realizes how much their attacks and assaults of Republicans (especially of Governor Sarah Palin but it’s a more broadbased identification also since she is Republican) now takes on new meaning. I can personally attest and have heard others attest that middle class and working Americans no longer see these leftist liberal and liberal media attacks on Republicans and especially Sarah Palin… as attacks upon the wealthy elite. We see these attacks as attacks on ourselves in identification with the Republican Party through the already successful “change agent”… Governor Sarah Palin.
I am personally TICKED!! at the liberal media… because, as far as I am concerned, they showing all of this obscene hatred not just towards McCain/Palin, but towards middle and working class Americans. Their attacks of Republicans, and especially the McCain/Palin ticket, are now attacks on “us”.
The more they attack Sarah Palin, the more they marginalize themselves to a whole lot of people that otherwise would not have been marginalized away from them. I think that giving them enough rope, with the introduction of Governor Sarah Palin into the Republican leadership of the party through her nomination, will result in them hanging themselves before the American people.
Greetings to all.

I have read the posts which all are right on in some way or another as to what the left is doing is because of hate. But the thing I see missing is an understanding of these actions by the left. And maybe in a way this what the posters are trying to say.
It seems we are attempting to give the left a political foot hold by trying to equate them to a political party or just a bunch of people with a political view or we call them liberals. This is not a political party this is not a people with a view of how politics should be and to say they are just liberals is to give them political power.
I know the words I am going to use is verboten by many people but I hear the great names in talk radio using them more often as this presidential campaign goes on. The words are, Stalinists, leftists, Marxists, Communists and many other names. Communism, has not died nor will it until it is physically stomped out of existence.
Remember, these people hate God, and anything else connected to religious beliefs. With this in mind then why should it be hard to understand the degradation that they will use to destroy their enemies?
In saying they hate God, I also add that they hate the United States because on the over-all the United States is a Christian nation and so it poses a threat to liberate people with true freedom and this is not what the Communists want. Karl Marx when asked what his greatest task in life was said, “to destroy God.”
In this type of mind there is no decency, no conscience, no love, or anything else that we as Americans believe and live. So, to even think to negotiate, compromise, work together, is pure fantasy and absolute delusion on our part.
I saw Communism at work first hand in East Germany when the Berlin wall was built and saw the warpedness and hate of Communism.
So, get over it and understand this is only the beginning of what is to come. They (the leftists) now have a foot in the door and will continue to beat on it until it either breaksdown and they push in or you destroy them at the door.

The left behaves as all Stalinists; with zero tolerance for anyone who disagrees with them. Any American who would surrender their liberty to the likes of people who peddle this trash don’t deserve to govern themselves—and will probably end up under a totalitarian boot.
Obama and his minions must be thoroughly discredited and defeated. The left helps us in this cause when they publish such vulgar misrepresentations of an honorable man. To be sure, the savage who doctored the photos has no concept nor familiarity with honor…
September 15th, 2008 at 9:47 pm
Can anyone image a McCain supporter doing something like this to Obama? Or any Republican doing it to any Democrat? I think it’s actually evil.
September 15th, 2008 at 11:11 pm
Every time there is a Republican about to become President the Left start on their fear-mongering about Roe v. Wade and Birth Control. I really don’t know where they got the idea that McCain-Palin would work to abolish Abortion and Birth Control, but it’s become undisputed FACT amongst the looney lefties and the rallying cry is more shrill and profoundly stupid than ever before. I mean, do they know how laws are passed/repealed in this Country? Do they think that Sarah Palin will walk into the White House and shout, ” I call - No Abortion, Pills or Condoms! ” Do they think that Republicans and/or Christians don’t use birth control? I think what they’re really worried about is losing third trimester infanticide altogether - gasp! Maybe Jill Greenburg can do a little pictorial essay on the joys of partial birth abortion in all its gory glory - up close and unedited - now that would be truly brave. After all, isn’t that what they most champion? Why not create awareness for that?! I’m telling you - I don’t know how I’ll withstand another four years of these evil liberal children and they’re irrational hatred and stupidity. We’ve got to be even louder folks, and we’ve got to work even harder.

Democracy used to be about right and left. But these days, it seems to be about right and wrong.

The left used to be about poor people marching in protest because they were hungry. In other words, a legitimate political complaint. But nowadays, they appear to be a repository for the “spiritually challenged”. I feel sorry for blue collar trade unionists because regardless of whether you share their politics (I don’t) their political representation is tainted by this wickedness.

Some great and thoughtful comments here. listen to the truth’s warning is unfortunately not as paranoid as it might be made to sound; the absolutist nature of the simple-minded liberal/left is capable of doing anything to its “enemies”. I suggest checking out yourmorals.org for a survey and analysis of left/right value structures.
Gnostic;
that’s a well-written and cogent comment, though maybe a bit over the top! [ But, edit note: the expression is "amazing spectacle to witness", not "spectre". ;) Unless you're deliberately invoking ghoulishness, natch! ] It’s amazing how the left can evoke and feel fear of Hitlers, but are sanguine about Stalins and Pol Pots. A very selective kind of pusillanimousness.
September 18th, 2008 at 2:34 am
Brian H:
Thanks for the kind words and critique, and yep, it was definitely over the top, both to underscore and ironically undermine the very point I was making, all to good end (or so I’d hope).
As for your edit, it’s a fair observation/correction, since I was taking what appears to have been an unsuccessful stab at a word play–you know, playing on the similarity of the words ’spectacle’ vs. ’spectre’ and thereby hoping to play off of Karl Marx’s old quote that “there is a spectre haunting Europe.” Of course, Marx was referring to Communism whereas I was having some fun with its orphaned grandchildren here in the U.S. But maybe I was being too sly as well as selective in my word choice, just like most folks are a bit too selective in their consumption of political information.
Mind you, I think selectivity is a good thing–the best thing about freedom is precisely that it allows you to make choices, that is, to be selective, and dare I say, elective. And after all, this is an election we’re all talking about–a very important one, I’m told–so I hope that people are as selective as possible. But there’s the rub: You can’t be very selective when you fix your eyes on a single option or set of options to the exclusion of all others. Granted, we all have biases, such as party affiliation and the like, and I certainly have no problem with that, since it’s reflects the exercise of choice. However, at the very least I’d like to think that we are informed about our biases, and that’s impossible to do without being broad-minded enough to stop and listen to counterpoints. Yes, you might vehemently disagree with them, but at least you’ll know what you’re opposing as opposed to fighting with the shadows of your own mind.
To put it another way, and nonpartisan to boot, perhaps the best way to be a good Democrat or a good Republican is to be more informed about all sides of every issue, and that’s impossible to do if you automatically shut out any information of a given kind or from certain quarters. And I might add, it’s hard to hear what other people are saying when you’re too busy listening to yourself, or you’re being just plain rude.
So, by all means, I didn’t mean to suggest that people shouldn’t be passionate liberals if they so choose, but I can’t say I’m to keen on uninformed, conformist people of any kind.
It just seems to me that the fear of any information that disagrees with our opinions seems to have reached epidemic proportions, so that people no longer even wait for such information to reach their doorstep–they attempt to preemptively strike it out of existence based on the flimsiest of evidence. How ironic that this should come from Democrats when this sort of preemptive behavior was their primary objection to our attack on Iraq. And, yes, it’s my observation that this sort of smug, pettiness is now especially acute on the left, in the same way that self-righteousness was somewhat typical of the right back in the 1950s and 1960s.
In any case, I do think that this mindless mindset is exactly what the mainstream media has been guilty of in its preemptive assault on Sarah Palin, which I’d characterize as being largely a comment-first/report-later approach to journalism.
I suppose it was inevitable that ratings-based talk show editorialization would eventually bleed its way into news reporting, but it’s a sad turn of events nonetheless, one that only exacerbates the problem of political polarization as people will increasingly and preemptively assume that even the most legitimate news stories must be nothing more than someone with an agenda crying “wolf!”
September 18th, 2008 at 5:45 am
Now the question is whether Rush or Laura also read the “News Selected…” topic. :D :D
September 18th, 2008 at 4:16 pm
BillK,
Actually, I’m fairly confident that Rush and Laura investigate news and commentary well beyond whatever is available through conservative channels so as to come up with their counter arguments. Their counterparts on the left do the exact same thing. Competitive research, you know?
Thing is, as unapologetic partisans, it’s obvious that none of these folks feel obligated to use their newfound information to make a case for the opposition. And that’s fine–why should they? It’s a free market, or at least it should be, and folks like Rush and Laura will continue to be successful for just as long as they can get enough people to listen to them.
Again, I personally see nothing wrong with partisanship, including passionate partisanship, just so long as it’s informed and rational and therefore contains a modicum of credibility. But hey, that’s just me, and, no doubt, credibility will vary from one instance to the next. In any case, it’s certainly rational for people like Rush and Laura to continue their ’slants’ given their tremendous personal financial success, not that I don’t believe that they truly believe what they’re saying.
To be sure, I know that THEY KNOW that there’s another point of view, but I certainly don’t expect them to feel obligated to present the counterpoint of view in a flattering light. However, they do present counterpoints on a routine, set-’em-up-and-knock-’em-down-basis, just like left wing commentators do. I’m guessing that most of these people are objective to some degree, just not in public, of course, where they obviously feel no obligation to be objective.
I think that the obligation to objective should rightly fall on the “hard news” media (as opposed to opinion-based media), although they do a horrible job of this–and they’re getting worse every day. It should come as no surprise that the newspaper business is, well, going out of business, even if slowly but surely. Of course, there are other reasons for their decline, but wanton bias doesn’t help, especially when you can get that anywhere. All of which leads me to…
… the obligation we have to ourselves as consumers/voters/human beings to rationally seek out a more wholesome quantity, quality, and diversity of information so as to be able to make the best possible decisions that we can make, no matter how partisan those decisions might wind up being. Granted, we’re not REALLY obligated to uphold this obligation to ourselves. I mean, nobody can force us to become more informed or self-aware, but there’s always a price to pay for that, whether you’re a Democrat or Republican, and the price can be summed up in one word: ignorance.
Which brings me to my personal goal, namely, to try to notice where and when I’m conveniently ignoring facts, figures, arguments, etc., and likewise, where others are doing the same. No doubt, ignorance is everywhere, or can be, and the same can be said of intelligence. Nonetheless, it’s my personal observation that liberals have increasingly trended towards shutting out, shouting down, and laughing off opposing points of views with preemptive strikes.
Of course, individual exceptions abound on both sides of the fence, but that’s my categorical take on the matter.
September 18th, 2008 at 5:46 pm
Wow - on both sides. That someone could even imagine that such drivel was productive, right or acceptable and for all the comments here. . .
It is hard not to take the smears, slime, lies and distortions personally but I still wonder how anyone can believe or accept it all? I am a neophyte when it comes to politics - my older daughter dragged me into it in 2000 - and I am hooked. I also feel so ashamed for having voted for years without much ’study’ - but I did vote in every election possible. (military moving, sometimes made it really hard).
I suppose when you have no sense of right/wrong or basic morals - it would be easy to do nasty photoshopping as above, to call Mrs Palin nasty names and to lie with such ease. I just could never do it - intentionally.
It just makes it hard some days to keep on keeping on - when it seems to get worse rather than better. But then you wake up one day, after a night of nightmare dreams of McCain/Liberman to find out that ‘The Maverick’ really did something right - and once again, you begin to feel like it is indeed Morning in America.
