Wingnuts Getting Fuster-Clucky Over “Mike” Castle
Clearly Mike Castle is going to have to run (for all intents and purposes) as a Dem and his announcement this week on the Charlie Copeland hour of the Rick Jensen show will no doubt be full of “moderate” asides, “bi-partisan” flibble-flabble and good will towards men.
Well, it seems that wingnuts, both near and far are getting their preemptive freak out on. One of my favorites is a nut bag writing at patriotroom.com.
It’s a personal thing with me, but I like people that go by the name they were given at birth. Sorry to all your alternative Michaels out there, but “Mike” seems to me to be indicative of a weak spirit (this only applies to him – I don’t like him. If you’re a Michael, feel free to use Mike – sounds good. Strong). So this guy sucks even before I write anything about him.
That’s just a warm up. This guy has picked up the fact that Castle is the sworn enemy of unborn, fetus-Americans:
Drifting into other areas in which “Mike” has sold his soul to Beelzebub, I find it instructive that Planned Parenthood gives him a rating of 75, while the National Right to Life Committee gives him the goose egg -0-. This guy’s a Republican?
Further on interest-group rating, wheat growers dislike him (25), farmers are skeptical (37), agricultural employers would rather have manure-spreading duty (-0-) (trust me, it sucks – talk about stains that are tough to get out), and fresh produce would rather spend the night in the field with gas heaters to ward off a freeze (-0-).
Surely he helps hunters, right? Sportsmen and Animal Owner’s Voting Alliance: -0-.
It seems “Mike” isn’t very pro-the-stuff-we-need-to-eat unless, of course, the stuff-we-need-to-eat is dead babies. What a douche.
Please note: That’s not me saying that. That’s an upright patriotic American teabagger in his full wingnut glory. But wait! There is an honest to gosh “litmus test” let’s see how Castle does…
Taxes? National Taxpayers Union -D-. His shining light: National Education Association -A-. Good for him. He’s loved by the group that single-handedly destroyed the public-school system. The American Family Association tosses a shoe at him (-0-) and the Family Research Council manages a measly 23.
Onto the litmus test: That machined and polished metal that you will remove from my cold, dead fingers … the 2d Amendment personal right to be locked and loaded. National Rifle Association gave “Mike” a grade of F, and the Gun Owners of America gave him … wait for it .. a rating of F-. F MINUS?!?! Have the hell bad to do you have to be to add a MINUS to an F. Oh my fricking lord.
F minus. Ouch! Let’s be fair. Mike Castle wanting to grab all the wingnut guns is the one thing I like about him. The one thing that I think we can all agree on is that the wingnuts need to stop going around shooting everyone. I applaud Mike Castle for his stand on that one.
Enough with the love-fest. Art Downs, our local wingnut tries to work up that kind of bile but it just seems like so much Wahhh!.. after that classic smack down.
Are you ready for your naked march in Times Square on New Years eve?
lol.
The NEA is the enemy of knowledge-based education and their approval of any candidate should be the kiss of death.
The right hates him because he’s not a rabid right-winger, and the left hates him because he never votes with the Democrats on anything substantive. Is the mushy middle that popular in Delaware? Because I can’t think of any other reason why Castle keeps getting re-elected.

Only compared to the tomato cans that the other party keeps putting up in order to maintain the Delaware way decorum.
Being invited into the Incumbent Party of Delaware is to receive a lifetime sinecure.
Appreciate pimping my post! Thanks for the pageviews.
My pleasure. Your conservative views have failed so utterly in practice that I don’t see any risk in promoting your looney tune freakshow.
Patience, my friend. Your liberal ways are heading towards bankrupting the country. But our differences in policy doesn’t mean we can’t be civil. Look forward to healthy debates with you.

Obviously you’re new around here.

Your conservative ways, i.e. looney tune freakshow, already have bankrupted the country, morally and fiscally.
Asshole.
(I don’t usually use profanity in my comments, but I wanted you to feel welcome.)
Clyde must be some kind of new post-Bush wingnut interested in civility. He didn’t even spaz out when I called him a dope on his own site.
Maybe I’ll try this civility thing and see who blinks first?
Cute, guys. Actually, I save my venom for public figures. Post-Bush? No. I’ve been around a lot longer than W or Clinton, the current dem Congress and the previous pub one.
One thing I have noticed about libs and cons alike is that they too quickly travel to ad homiletic bullshit. It’s actually the cheap way into and out of a debate – cheap in terms of lacking intellect and the ability to critically view and discuss historical fact and current policy.
I’m more interested in learning from everyone and sharing my point of view. I’m not dyed in anyone’s wool. I have my views and learned reasons for them. It’s too bad so many people are driven by emotion – it exhibits, falsely, a shallow intellect.
Any of you assholes up for an honest and informed debate? Smile …
Oh yeah, Jason, referring to me as a wingnut and dope is no reflection on me. But I trust you know that.
I don’t see any risk in promoting your looney tune freakshow.
First mistake.
I’ll try this civility thing
Second mistake.

This is from Clyde who also wrote:
“Mike” has sold his soul to Beelzebub”
and
“but “Mike” seems to me to be indicative of a weak spirit”
and
“So this guy sucks even before I write anything about him.
and
“It seems “Mike” isn’t very pro-the-stuff-we-need-to-eat unless, of course, the stuff-we-need-to-eat is dead babies. What a douche.”
and
“It’s too bad so many people are driven by emotion – it exhibits, falsely, a shallow intellect.”
A “looney tune freakshow”? Yeah, Jason got that right. And a cheap one at that.
Reading selectively, are we? Op cit. on saving my venom for public figures. Either join a discussion or sit on the outside – makes no difference to me. I haven’t read a single cogent, considered defense of liberal policy yet. Seems to be merely a fish on the shore gasping for air. Oh well. At least Jason has the strength to venture out and comment.
