Debate, and discuss, just dont Bore me.
Want to know who they are?

Ok, So I coined the phrase, and have used it only once or twice here at JU to describe the left.  However, I think a great example of just who is the Loony Loopy Luddite Left can be found on a blog DRMILLER created, and the responses!

Check out the responses by mythgarr and  renidrag.  And if any of you on the left can support their statements (not you Dabe, we know you do), go ahead.  but dont trash me when I call them Loony Loopy Luddite liberals.

Not to worry, guy. I've said all I have to say on the matter. That being that the word luddite is a ridiculous word to apply to lefties. As for how I feel about righties, well, I'm not getting into it now.

Please, for the sake of debate, Read Al Gore's Earth in the balance.  And then tell me what Luddite is!

He is one of yours, so it is not my writing!

Doc...you really got to get a few things straight......

1. To say something totally stupid is not being left.
2. To be a total asshole is not being left.
3. To be anti-American is not being left.
4. Saying one is left does not make them left.
5. Being totally ignorant of the truth does not make one left.
6. Coming up with ones own conclusions that are usually wrong does not make one left.

I think it is obvious from my blogs that i am left. I don't think I fit into any of the above catagories. SO... what I am suggesting is perhaps the coining of a new phrase... instead of referring to these people as left, lets call them REALITY CHALLENGED.Do I get a cookie for this?

Dr. Guy,


As a wannabe luddite, I resent having to take the Al Gores of this world into our fold.

mano, You get as many cookies as you want!  Yes, very insightful and right.  I (to my detriment, so mea culpa) asssumed they were just way left of yesterday.  I should not have.


Damn!  You make me eat my words more than my wife does!  Can you at least send some pepto bismal?

Gid, how are you a Wanna Bee Luddite?  You are a wanna bee left alone!  Me too!  We just vote differently.  You vote your conscious, and I vote for the lesser of 2 weevils!
