Last week we posted a piece here where we used the term “hard-working, family-oriented” 4 separate times to parody the insistence of the pro-illegal alien crowd that us racists and nativists were unfairly targeting these people as law-breakers.
After reading this article on extreme right-wing hate groups in Israel, it appears our efforts to parody based on quantity of repetitive terms has fallen way, way short.
In an article much shorter than our post, the author feels compelled to beat you over the head using the term “extreme right-wingers”, “right-wing activists” or similar no less than 5 times (including the title of the article). And the term “right-wing activist” should be the first clue that the author is operating with an agenda as everyone knows that “right-wing activist” is the very illustration of an oxymoron.
And what evidence is presented other than having to accept the author’s good word that these people are indeed “right wing”? Do they favor free-markets and supply-side economics? Are they firm supporters of property rights and the rule of law? Are they against judicial activism and moral relativism?
As written about here, you as the reader are never presented with any information provided by answering the questions above that would help you come to an independent assessment as to whether these folks are indeed right-wing or more apt to be, as we have found, left-wingers.

Let me save you some time and effort, DwB...
There are plenty of us registered Democrats that want the border slammed shut, and no immunity for people that crossed said border illegaly.
Simple enough? - Mongo
Mongo, Unfortunately none of your candidates do.
And that would be Mr. BwD, to you, pal.
Sincerely,

Seems to me like not many of your candidates, nor the guy that currently holds the highest office in the land, do either.

Some do but your point is taken... and it also represents my dilemma with the current crop of Republican candidates: Each one of them bring something to the table that I like but there is also one show-stopper issue with each of them that prevents me from pulling the trigger on any single one of them at this point.
