Why do they hate them?

“Everyone of you (AIG) should be executed with piano wire!…. We are looking for your families, your children”

Liberals project an image of themselves as compassionate, diverse, tolerant and kind-hearted. Conversely, they brand conservatives hateful, intolerant, bigoted, sexist, racist, homophobe, and on and on. Just Google the words Limbaugh and hate together and it will return over 2 million hits.

But liberal tolerance only extends to groups they deem worthy, and the vitriol and hatred from the left directed at those they deem inferior far exceeds anything I’ve ever seen or heard from the right.

The “rich” apparently deserve no tolerance or respect, as liberals spend a great deal of energy demonizing and – well, hating those who have managed to accumulate wealth.

I thought hating was bad. I thought intolerance was the cardinal sin in the 21st century. I thought we weren’t supposed to stereotype.

But maybe hatred becomes a virtue when expressed from the right motives.

I have to confess, I get pretty confused. Then again, nobody ever accused liberals of moral clarity.
