Again you might want to watch "The Politics of Fear" to understand the links between the neo-con RWA's and the Muslim RWA's

They have their roots in the same era, and have the same cause and response...they are basically the same.

With the post of whatever was returned  by a search engine tasked with returning all instances of "left-wing violence".... and to post it as though it had any statistical  relevance whatsoever, has me now convinced that Dougy here sees himself as the self-appointed troll-gatekeeper whose job it is to make sure everyone who comes here looking for intelligent conversation instead gets his repeated  insults, ad homonyms, and faulty reasoning over why empirical data can be refuted solely by his own firm belief that it is otherwise. 

 That you and every other researcher studying the peculiar cognitive traits that keep him from accepting what his own activities here merely confirm, tells me you and the rest of us can expect nothing from him but the same sorts of mindless contrariness and site obstruction we see here today. He probably also believes his own insertion of nonsensical rebuttals as if they actually meant something is something that he, as a patriotic Tea Partier should continue to do in perpetuity as an "evil-site troll" fighting scientific evil as a religious duty.

I realize there';s some reluctance to bounce anyone at least pretending to speak in rational opposition to a given position, but Doug here has shown his true colors about having no intention of ever producing rebuttal evidence refuting the research that should be the focus of this site. 

He's a TROLL.....PERIOD.  As such, please block his attempts to clutter up and harass you and other posters wishing to use the site until he finally renders so difficult that it becomes unusable for those looking to use it for its primary  purpose. 

Please believe that I have not come by this decision lightly.  

What part of "promote the general welfare" don't you understand?

A tax cut won't help me in any real way, what it will do is help the predators who have crippled the middle class (me).

Liberals don't want a plutocracy...it's very simple. We want a society in which people can succeed based on their merits, not on their parents (or grand parents) money. We want a society where one mistake doesn't doom you to homelessness, we want a society where a person who works hard for their whole life doesn't need to choose between cat food and heart medicine.

We want a society, that is NOT owned by large perpetual corporations.

There is the crux...

The political right has managed to fool its RWA followers, the majority of which are net recipients of tax bennies, into believing that a tax break for billion dollar corps and multi millionaires will help them. That is demonstrably false. All one has to do is look at the middle class wage stagnation that started with Reagan's tax cuts and the "great deregulation".

The idea that government has the right to control the efficiency and safety of vehicles, this is a GOOD thing... "for the general welfare", as is energy efficiency in homes and businesses. Because it is truly in the general welfare of the nation as a whole and the citizens thereof to reduce the amount of energy we use, both for environmental reasons and for economic and national security reasons.
