Local conservative talk radio host Bob Durgin hasn’t pulled his on-air punches in the wake of Saturday’s shootings in Arizona, lambasting liberals for using the tragic event to slander conservatives like Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck. “God, I hate the liberal media,” Durgin said Monday during his highly rated afternoon show on WHP580. “It’s like, if you don’t follow Obama and believe in Obama’s policies, then you are a potential terrorist.” In talking about The New York Times, often seen as queen of the left by conservatives, Durgin added, “Somebody ought to burn that paper down. Just go to New York and blow that sucker right out of the water.” Durgin now concedes that last remark may have been a bridge too far in an overheated environment. “I don’t regret saying it, but I know I probably shouldn’t have,” he said this week during a telephone interview. “That’s just me. When I go on the air I announce my true feelings. What they hear is who I am.”

Sure. 1984 quote below, describes the same. You socialists want to destroy the country via the Cloward-Piven Strategy, and rebuild it into a socialist utopia. Those who resist your insanity, are somehow "intolerant," and "a potential terrorist."
OMG, loser, dig your head out of your ass. Get over that book already, it isn't happening and won't happen.
Thank you for providing a perfect example of "doublethink." ;)
You provide a perfect example of idiotthink
Clearly, you never read the book "1984." Since you have NO idea what "doublethink" or "newspeak" is, you try to bullshit your way through, and make yourself the fool. Another product of the public 'skool' system, aren't you?
Oh, I read it all right. When I was a kid. And I got all skeered and thought it was prophetic and all that shit. Then I grew up. You should try it.
You should try it. You grew up? Considering the quality of your responses (or lack thereof), it would appear you're one of the mind-numbed sheeple. I read it as a kid, and the recently read an article comparing current society to the dystopian novels 1984 and Brave New World. I decided to go back and read it again. Frankly, the similarities between 1984 and where our society is at right now, are undeniable. If you prefer to keep your head in the sand, so be it. You prefer doublethink and newspeak to reality. And if that makes you feel better, about being a slave, then good for you. An article that sums everything up, is below. Note that it was written only a month before the 9/11 attacks, and before the PATRIOT-USA laws were passed... By Chuck Baldwin Most Americans no doubt think of themselves as law-abiding, God-fearing people. However, when obedience to human law violates a man's inner conscience, the only moral alternative left him is faithfulness to his conscience. In fact, resistance to tyrannical laws forms the foundation of our heritage. Where would America be without the exploits of the brave men at Bunker Hill, Valley Forge, and Lexington Green? Our history is immersed in a river of resistance to unjust laws. It appears, however, that many Americans today have forgotten Ben Franklin's maxim, "Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God." Current events suggest that they are more than willing to embrace a dictatorial police state. Federal police abuse at Waco, Texas; Ruby Ridge, Idaho; and now at Klamath Basin, Oregon, reveal a lethargic population willing to overlook practically any injustice. To be sure, there was (and is) much resistance from local parties directly involved. To the vast population at large, however, there is nothing but complete indifference. To them, those who resist federal abuse are simply lawbreakers (or kooks) who deserve neither sympathy nor respect. It matters not if they go to jail, lose their farms, or burn to death. Had this generation been around back in 1775, America would still be a Crown colony today; and Washington, Henry and Revere would be regarded as ignoble traitors. Fortunately, the generation of 1775 understood the difference between lawful authority and tyranny. The Father of the American Revolution, Sam Adams, said: It should seem obvious to everyone that, for the past 40 plus years, numerous departments and agencies of our federal government have taken upon themselves the cloak of a conqueror and have repeatedly violated "the first law of nature." Unfortunately, this generation (unlike that of 1775) does not have a Washington or Adams to oppose them. Not only that, it appears that the vast majority of Americans today welcome additional federal encroachment into their lives. Sam Adams reportedly told some British sympathizers: I wonder what he would say to us?
Lol, Chuck Baldwin???!! Are you fucking kidding me? That you can't see thru that twit explains much about you lol. No wonder you jump on all those crazy kook theories.
I voted for Baldwin. What do you have against him?
What do you have against him? I don't have anything against him. I posted his article, because what he said then was true. It's just more *obvious* now...

Licking the hand that feeds you

Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: first, a right to life; second, to liberty; third, to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can. These are the evident branches of the duty of self-preservation, commonly called the first law of nature. All men have a right to remain in a state of nature as long as they please; and in case of intolerable oppression, civil or religious, to leave the society they belong to, and enter into another.
If you love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
