You name it. When I turn on Fox News or read the republican "news" on the internet, all I hear them talk about is fear, fear, fear. It's why so many republicans follow their leaders blindly. OOOOO save us from all these horrible people. Save us from the non-christians. Just save us!! The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. Makes more sense now than it did when it was said all those years ago.

My God, you can say that with a straight face?
The Dems and the left leaning media have been the party of fear and the sky is falling chicken littles' all my life! Global Cooling, Global Warming, Swine Flu (how you figure those on the right are spreading fear on that one is beyond me), Avian flu, S.A.R.S, Mad Cow, Hole in the ozone, Swine flu-circa 1975, Hanta virus, Y2K, Acid rain, D.D.T, Mercury in fish, Radiation Poisoning, Radon, Nuclear Holocaust, Killer bees, Saccharin, Red Dye # 2, Cell phones causing cancer, Running out of oil, Overpopulation, Rain forest destruction and on and on and on...
Good Lord, Obama sold his "stimulus package" through nothing but fear mongering.

I've said this about other things, but I'll say it again. Fear, too, I guess, is in the eye of the beholder. Both you and gringa have valid points.

As for the swine flu fear mongering, you do remember Michele Bachman, right?

I can't believe this one, but then again I can.
Fox new pushing fear? I can readily tell that you must be watching and believing the the hate machines called NBC,MSNBC,CNN. Matt Lauer, Katie Couric and the rest of the main stream liberal mouthpieces that wrote the book on fear mongering and have been trying that for years.
They finally got someone that was well educated, looked the part and was charasmatic to go out and read tele promters telling how the world can be saved. Same liberal agenda, just a different mouthpiece for it that could decieve and get alot of people to actually believe it.
People knew that Clinton, Gore, Kerry and the like were transparent and had nothing. This curent administration has nothing new, just spreads the fertilizer better but the smell is the same.

Could you give me examples? I want to see where the "liberals" alone hyped these issues. The only one that I know the libs are really pushing is global warming which is a real issue that is already effecting our planet as I type. Anyway, please show some evidence that libs have pushed fear mongering on the above situations. And it's funny hearing a republican say that dems are like that when Bush used 9-11 to take away our rights to privacy to "protect us".
Give me a break. I especially loved the color coded fear index they created. Whenever the republicans did something stupid it would magically go up a color so we'd all huddle behind them to protect us from those darn terrorists.

Where is your examples of where conservatives alone hyped the things you listed? Where did they hype fear about Muslims, gays, womens rights, terrorists, swine flu, atheists, socialism? I personally know democrats that have issues with everything you listed, not just conservatives.

I haven't seen a single attack on the US since Bush came up with his Homeland Security Office. Have you? In fact, I've seen quite a number of terrorist plans thwarted.

The Global Warming scare is nothing but a bunch of Al Gore lies designed to make him rich, which it has. Biggest scam I've ever seen in my life.

Here's an example on oil.

Again, swine flu = Michele Bachman.

On the global warming issue, remember that Al Gore may have latched onto it, but it has been an issue (cause debatable) since at least the 1970s.

Yeah, she's an idiot, but she certainly isn't alone. There are PLENTY on the left that are that ignorant.

In the '70s, it was Global Cooling, wasn't it?

Gore hyped into the nonsense it is today no question about it. As with most garbage like GW, follow the money if you want to get to the truth about it.

Just for the record, the argument is not that GW exists, but whether or not it is man-made, right?

Just a comment on Al Gore and the global warming crock. Well, I guess that was my comment......global warming imo is a crock of el toro poo poo, .
I frankly think that Gore may have invented global warming. After all he did invent the internet and is the sole reason that we are on here debating this and posting on this and other subjects, not to mention the modern day computer/internet world. Gore also still believes that he won that election a little over 8 years ago . Those are just two of the "voices in his head" among many other accomplishments of his imaginary greatness. Al Gore is legend in is own mind. I honestly believe that Gore is the type that we may one day read or see on the news that he has had a complete meltdown, "went off the deep end" type thing. I really think the man is mentally unstable and what I describe as an "educated idiot"!
I have to say, though, that the one thing that Al Gore has honestly done is to lower the standards for the Nobel Peace Prize.

I didn't mean to get off topic, just that there was some discussion on the great Al Gore.

Yes and no. I have always believed that "global warming" is nothing more than part of natural cycles that the earth goes through and that there is nothing we can do about it.
