To: contact@redstate.comWhy are conservatives so hateful towards hard working Amercans?
They are against everything and anything that will help our country.
If they hate our country so much, why don’t they just leave?
I just don’t understand where they are coming from.
Those that support Republicans appear to be rich and/or low information voters.

Mike (Diary) Thursday, August 5th at 11:20PM EST (link)I definitely just emailed her. I was very nice, very respectful, and only asked her to clarify why she thought conservatives hated hard-working Americans.
Since, y’know, we’re hard-working Americans…I figured I should at least figure out our self-loathing.
Haha
rws197 (Diary) Thursday, August 5th at 11:58PM EST (link)Nicely done. But I wouldn’t expect a reply that is coherent or even a reply at all considering said e-mails above. lol Though I would bet she is regretting sending them in the first place by now.
I do hope she replies, I’d be curious as to her ‘logic’ on this matter.

Dear Cathy,
kyle8 (Diary) Thursday, August 5th at 3:39PM EST (link)Is taxing the hell out of every one something that will help working Americans?
How about running all of the companies into the ground with new regulations? Is that useful?
How about all the workers in the Gulf region who will be destroyed because of Obama’s illegal drilling moratorium?
How about letting in 30 million low wage third world workers, is that helpful?
How about creating more debt than your children or grandchildren will ever be able to pay? Helpful enough for ya?
Why don’t you learn something before you open your mouth you stupid dork.

If you hate our constitution and country why don’t you leave.
I understand where they are coming from but disavow their socialist ideals.

Mark D Thursday, August 5th at 3:51PM EST (link)Yes, it reeks of ignorance, as do all the emails that Erick posts. However, this one is shockingly devoid of profanity.

smitch61 Thursday, August 5th at 4:02PM EST (link)I live in Taylor MI.. approximately 7 miles from you. Our state is in disarray, have you been paying attention? The republican party has never been the party for the rich, that is a democrat talking point that unfortunately has been accepted for years. I would highly suggest that you broaden your horizons and study up on the political system.
Conservatism is what the country was founded on period…
Voting against your economic self-interests
chihank Thursday, August 5th at 4:04PM EST (link)This the phrase liberals use to social conservatives.
Elites like, Thomas Frank, talk of how GOPers use social issues to scare conservatives into voting for rich, corporate lobbyists who will undermine the economy Middle America.
I find such liberal elitist talk arrogant.

RedBeard Thursday, August 5th at 4:07PM EST (link)…trying to reach someone so totally devoid of reason. I can only assume that she operates along those lines because she actually believes the government creates its own money to parcel out like Santa does with the toys from his North Pole workshop. She probably also believes that government can create jobs and provide “free” health care, and that “rich” people stole their way to riches.
Anyway, congratulations to her for staying civil and non-vulgar.

Conservatives are “for the rich”

She believes we will have healthcare for all.

After 10 minutes of UberDouche, a watcher’s brains begin draining out the nose and at the end of a full hour, the transformation to zombie is complete. Obviously poor Cathy has an addiction to this process.
But to give her credit, she *does* do a *great* job of repeating the most simplistic “progressive” litanies, given there is only one degree of sentient difference between a large purple turnip and the average

My own response
NRPax (Diary) Thursday, August 5th at 5:43PM EST (link)Dear Cathy.
For the sake of argument, let’s agree that the Republicans are the party of the rich and the Democrats are the party of the poor.
This means that it is in the Republicans’ best interest for everyone to be rich because they will vote Republican. What does that mean for Democrats?
Excellent! (nt)

Cathy, here’s a tip. If you write an insulting e-mail to a blog where the participants are the very ones you insulted, the replies you get are very likely to be something other than sweet nothings and XOXOXOXO. See how that works?

Why don't conservatives just leave?
lineholder (Diary) Thursday, August 5th at 7:22PM EST (link)Cathy, be careful what you wish for, ma’am.
You may despise us through and through, but conservatives would rather work for what we earn than be totally dependent on our government for everything.
We would rather take the obstacles that exist in life and face it as a challenge than to wallow in feeling sorry for ourselves over some perceived violation of our “rights”.
We would rather follow the path of what is morally and ethically right than to follow the path of political correctness that is “deemed” for us by our government.
When times get really tough, which we aren’t even close to that yet but it is coming, it will be mainstream conservatives who keep this country from falling apart, not the political class.
For conservatives to leave would be beyond your worst nightmare, ma’am.
So be careful what you wish for.
Cathy, Cathy, Cathy
thebelle Thursday, August 5th at 7:36PM EST (link)You expected you wouldn’t get a reply from a conservative web site?
Next time, if there is one, ask them not to post your email.

*Most are quite nice when talking about non-political things, but they are ignorant when they talk about politics, and it shows.

stephaniet Thursday, August 5th at 10:00PM EST (link)Talk to her about, say, Star Wars, and she’s the most awesome person to be around. But get involved with anything political, and it’s like her brain melted. And it shows, big time. She’s a self-proclaimed hippie, and it shows.
Don’t know how she can be a hippie, though… A lot of hippies didn’t bathe; a lot of them did dope; and a lot of them did both. She fits in none of those categories.
