Where\’s the Tolerance?
Hateful reactions from the Left.
By Deroy Murdock
The Tennessee Center for Policy Research (TCPR) recently generated headlines when it announced that former Vice President Al Gore\’s Nashville estate \”devoured nearly 221,000 kilowatt-hours\” of electricity in 2006, \”more than 20 times the national average.\” This free-market think tank\’s phones lit up when it analyzed Nashville Electric Service\’s public records and identified an inconvenient gap between Gore\’s conservationism and his energy consumption. TCPR\’s one-page press release was greeted with enough megawatts of hatred to power the South.
\”I was accused several times of being a \’stupid, redneck *****,\’\” recalls TCPR\’s vice president Nicole Williams, who fielded numerous calls. \”I repeatedly was called a \’*****\’ and asked \’Whose ***** are you?\’ for three days straight, almost as if those were talking points… I was shocked by these sexist insults — basically attacking my gender.\”
The calls continued beyond Williams\’s Nashville office.
\”I had to change my home number and get an unlisted number,\” Williams tells me. \”I got about 10 death threats by phone that made an impression on me. I got the \’I\’m gonna get you\’-type threats more than 100 times…I was worried that I would get shot walking to my car.\” Williams discovered her obsolete address posted online. \”If they could find my old home address, it would not be so hard to find a current one.\”
Gore\’s defenders also spewed venomous e-mails. They sent TCPR nearly 3,000 Gore-related messages that exhibited the very bigotry the Left routinely denounces. Warning: These offensive, often-vulgar, and occasionally unschooled comments reveal the vitriol behind much of today\’s \”progressive\” rhetoric.
Many e-mails displayed Dixiephobia — an intense disdain for the south and southerners.
After TCPR President Drew Johnson discussed his story on cable news, Kevin Lafferty objected: \”Johnson said Gore\’s home has gas lamps lining his driveway, a heated pool and an electric gate — all of which would be easy to do without. Well sure, that\’s easy enough for you to say when you live in a frickin mobile home in Tennessee, eh Johnson?\”
\”F**k you, and for that matter, f**k Tennessee,\” wrote Thomas Brown. \”I\’ll never go there again.\”
\”Why don\’t you all go back to shooting one another across the hollows instead of trying to make people think anyone in Tennessee has an ounce of intelligence?\” Roger Miller insisted. \”Or better yet, get your snaggle tooth grins capped and learn to read and write…Someone who\’s traveled the world here, and never ever wants to even fly across your state again.\”
\”W.T.F. difference would it make if he was [sic] using 1000 times more energy than the average household if it came from clean energy?\” Thomas Grinnell wondered. \”Don\’t think about that too much. It will give your southern mullet a headache.\”
\”You really should concentrate on what Southerners do best,\” D. Hunter advised. \”Sodomizing and impregnating little children!\”
\”You are the most despicable and pathetic types of people of all time,\” Christopher LaBarge declared. \”I hope you all die slowly and have your hearts and brains trampled to pieces you small-minded, ignorant, backwoods ideologues.\”
\”Well it\’s like I\’ve always said, \’we should have flattened the South when we had the chance!\” wrote Mount Laurel, New Jersey\’s Robert Dodelin. \”If ever you confederates [sic] want to leave the Union please do. We Nothen [sic] states would love to stop having to subsidize you with our tax dollars.\”
This anti-southernism mystifies TCPR\’s Johnson.
\”Some people must believe the Mason-Dixon Line runs between our office and Gore\’s mansion,\” Johnson says. \”No one would call Gore a redneck, but when we uncovered his hypocritical energy use, it somehow made me a sister-dating hillbilly. That\’s quite amusing, since Gore and I live in Nashville, less than five miles apart.\”
Some e-mails, like Benjamin Greuel\’s, reflected anti-religious bias: \”Go f**k yourselves you neo con, non-secular, bible thumpin, anti-science dumb f**k pricks.\” Similarly, Anthony Black wrote:
You bunch of stupid hick red-necks. I am sure you are quite religious, yet you have no problem destroying His creation with pollution; and, rather than addressing that, you cast dispersions [sic] on Al Gore\’s home energy use. Absurd.
Seriously, find one of those nice Tennessee hardwoods, get a nice stick from it, and stick it up your white-bread ignorant a**.
Have a nice day, you ignorant red-neck.
\”How about you have a do [sic] humanity a favor and have a stroke,\” Russ Smith recommended. \”You silly metrosexual twit, need some more hi-lites in your hair?\”
Another gay-hater wrote: \”You guys are the faggiest fags I\’ve ever come across. How do you get any work done, what with all the c**k sucking and such?\”
\”Keep licking Bush and Cheney\’s privates,\” Burton Ogle suggested. \”Your time is up and we\’re moving you\’re a**es out.\”
Two e-mails feature chillingly violent imagery.
\”You people are such slime,\” T. J. Williams noted. \”You are a total waste of skin and air. Help the environment and jump off a cliff.\”
Bob Beaver urged: \”Find a hole and stick a knife in it.\”
Such anti-intellectual intimidation reflects the high-octane hate that fuels so much Leftist discourse. Rather than simply argue that Johnson, Williams, and their colleagues are misguided or misinformed about global warming, these bullies call them barefoot, same-sex-loving, Winchester-wielding whores, and evangel-yokels. Remember this whenever liberals crow about diversity, tolerance, and open-mindedness.

Did you know that when Gore was in office he cut the EPA staff of investigators and prosecutersby hundreds. The result -unable to move on big business. So get real – they are all self serving, but at least others don\’t pretend they are for the enviornment when their actions clearly show they are not.
Greens and the save the planet bunch are a violent group. Look back over the last 25 years and see what they have done. From spiking trees to the uni-bomber, all a dangerous group.
If you\’ve been following this nonsense you would know that the \”441 scientists\” figure was over 2,000 when the first summary was released, but as I posted earlier of them many threatened to sue to be removed because they were not advised that their names were going to be appended to this bogus study, and many were not even climate scientists but biologists, sociologists etc. It\’s a total and complete government power grab -which is why it appeals to your average democrat voter.
So I get one solar panel, a question answered with a question, and some guy John who just rants. Just shows how pathetic the Republican party has become to lose elections to these people. Very sad state of affairs on both sides.
The original reports included scientists who were \”doctors\”. These Phd people were doctors in subjects such as english and philosophy. Not exactly scientists.
about the time they announce another big deal on \’global warming\’.
I\’ll be the first to admit, I don\’t really know.
But it is more than interesting to see someone like Algore pretend he has no self serving interest in pushing his \’science\’ forward.
It\’s also interesting to see someone, such as Dr. Gray, state something different, and have folks like Rosie immediately accuse them of being on the pocket of \’big oil\’.
Just a couple decades ago the experts were concerned we were causing global cooling. I have no problem with conservation; many conservatives forget it shares it\’s root meaning with conservative. But what\’s going on these days with the global warming folks is best described as a religious movement based upon \’faith and belief\’, which is really ironic since what they claim to fear most of the current administration is their \’faith and belief\’ in God.
Chilly,
Why don\’t you post some of the religious bigotry that the right spews out? anti gay, racial, etc…? There are ignorant people on both sides of the spectrum.

Oh my God. I did not think something like you existed. A sane Democrat?
Either you are really a Republican but don\’t realize it, or you are a cunning Democrat? Haven\’t decided.
