Thanks to a wonderful website called ‘What Liberals Say’, I’ve compiled some very IN-tolerant quotes from the very Leftist people who demand ‘tolerance’ from the Right.
In Part 1, I covered the very intolerant words of many Left-leaning famous folks who are quick to judge Conservatives yet aren’t as quick to close their own mouths.
Continuing in alphabetical order, Part 2 brings you quotes from liberal favorites starting with Charles Darwin and ending with Howard Dean. Forgive me for offering multiple quotes from the same person; every now and then (as in the case of Charley Rangel) there are just too many to settle for only one.
Charles Darwin—the left’s favorite argument against Christianity—and his intolerance toward African-Americans: “The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian [aborigine] and the gorilla.”
Charley Rangel’s intolerance toward President Bush (or maybe white people in general): “Well, I really think that President George Bush shatters the myth of white supremacy once and for all; it shows that, in this great country, anybody can become president.”
Charley Rangel’s intolerance toward our military men and women: “If a young fellow has an option of having a decent career or joining the Army to fight in Iraq, you can bet your life that he would not be in Iraq . . . [T]hose who have the least opportunities . . . find themselves in the military.”
Chris Matthews’s intolerance toward presidents (and Southern people) who own property: “I’m so sick of Southern guys with ranches running this country. I want a guy to run for President who doesn’t have a f***ing ranch.”
Cindy Sheehan, activist who had zero tolerance for President Bush (but…where is she during Obama’s reign?): “[President Bush is] the biggest terrorist in the world, [. . . a] lying bastard, [. . . an] evil maniac [who is guilty of] blatant genocide, [. . . and a] fuehrer [who is] waging a nuclear war in Iraq.”
Cybill Shepherd’s intolerance toward John Ashcroft: “Too bad John Ashcroft’s mother didn’t believe in abortion.”
Dan Rather’s tolerance toward dishonesty: “I think I can be an honest person and lie about any number of things.”
Sen. Dick Durbin’s intolerance toward our soldier’s decisions at Guantanamo Bay (he later apologized): “If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime — Pol Pot or others — that had no concern for human beings.”
Elton John’s intolerance toward religion: “From my point of view, I would ban religion completely. Organized religion doesn’t seem to work. It turns people into really hateful lemmings and it’s not really compassionate.”
Garrison Keillor’s not-so-down-home intolerance toward ALL-THINGS-CONSERVATIVE: “[Republicans have] transmogrified into the party of hairy-backed swamp developers and corporate shills, faith-based economists, fundamentalist bullies with Bibles, Christians of convenience, freelance racists, misanthropic fratboys, shrieking midgets of AM radio, tax cheats, nihilists in golf pants, brownshirts in pinstripes, sweatshop tycoons, hacks, fakirs, aggressive dorks, Lamborghini libertarians, people who believe Neil Armstrong’s moonwalk was filmed in Roswell, New Mexico, little honkers out to diminish the rest of us, Newt’s evil spawn and their Etch-A-Sketch president, a dull and rigid man suspicious of the free flow of information and of secular institutions, whose philosophy is a jumble of badly sutured body parts trying to walk. Republicans: The No.1 reason the rest of the world thinks we’re deaf, dumb, and dangerous.”
Garrison Keillor’s intolerance toward born-again Christians: “I’m trying to organize support for a constitutional amendment to deny voting rights to born-again Christians. I feel if your citizenship is in Heaven — like a born-again Christian’s is — you should give up your citizenship. Sorry, but this is my new Cause. If born-again Christians are allowed to vote in this Country, then why not Canadians?”
George Soros’s intolerance toward the United States: “The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States.”
George Soros’s intolerance toward capitalism: “The main enemy of the open society, I believe, is no longer the communist but the capitalist threat.”
Gwyneth Paltrow’s tolerance of England over America: “Brits are far more intelligent and civilized than Americans.”
Harry Belafonte at a rally showing his tolerance toward Hugo Chaves and intolerance toward America: “No matter what the greatest tyrant in the world, the greatest terrorist in the world, George W. Bush says, we’re here to tell you: Not hundreds, not thousands, but millions of the American people, millions support your revolution, support your ideas, and we are expressing our solidarity with you.”
Sen. Harry Reid’s intolerance toward the English language: “This amendment [to make English America's official language] is racist. I think it’s directed basically to people who speak Spanish.”
Hillary Clinton’s intolerance toward Arkansas men: “When I look at what’s available in the man department [in Arkansas], I’m surprised more women aren’t gay.”
Howard Dean’s intolerance toward Republicans: “Well, Republicans, I guess, can do that [get to the polls on time to wait and vote] because a lot of them have never made an honest living in their lives…I don’t know that she’s [Laura Bush has] ever had a real job I mean, since she’s been grown up.”
Howard Dean taking it a few steps further in his intolerance for Republicans: “I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for.”

The comments seem to be self-explanatory.
Any American who votes for any democrat commie is brain dead. The media controls the thoughts of liberals and their actions so Americans who vote obama or for any democrat commie has done so because they are mindless and spinless.
Nuff said above.
intolerance seems to be the new tolerance for those who decide what tolerance should look like.
The New Tolerance is a tolerance for evil. It is destroying this country. And that is totally unacceptable adding to the decline of all we know to be America.
Every one of those comments is projecting their own self-hate. To be a liberal you have to hate your own ethnicity – which explains liberal Jews in America supporting the destruction of Israel.
Speaks volumes! Thanks for taking the time to post. Is it a requirement for liberals to have memory loss?
And we insignificant peons on whom most of you elitist shitheads in politics and the entertainment field depend for your very livelihoods just love it when you tell us how to live and what to think! You’ve all proven yourselves to be above reproach, honest and of the highest moral character.
Liberals allowed one of their prettiest to kill all those children in Waco, Tx and never said a word. GW took out three WMDs in Iraq and the name calling went on like a broken record. The 3 WMDs: Uday, Cusay, and Sadaam, liberals, you wouldn’t understand because you don’t value life. Liberal history goes back to the KKK, but didn’t stop there, 72% of abortions belong to blacks. To the president a fetus is “a mistake”. I stand firm on my belief that liberals are Demonic. MJB
Tolerance in Libtard land is non-existent. Everything from tobacco smoke,to the climate,to one’s country,cars,trains,planes,
you name it and there’s a liberal complaint about it. Everything causes cancer,will make you die sooner,or make you glow in the dark.
If God created me as a Libtard,I would go jump off a bridge so I could start over. Suicide is a sin but I’d be forgiven ’cause God probably wouldn’t blame me.
well said and logical as well
Have you ever noticed that many of the products you buy anymore, if you look at the label, it says “causes cancer in California”. I think we need a lot more of these products. They aren’t working fast enough.
The next time I read any more about the liberals mentioned above, I hope it is on the obituary page.
The tragedy of this, is that the liberal/progressive mentality does not see what is so self evident. The very causes they say they espouse, fairness, equality and tolerance apply only to those who completely walk in lock step with their own idea of what life on earth should be. Say any thing outside of the party line and you are publicly branded a pariah in their eyes. Agree or disappear is their marching order. Seems we’ve seen this all before in various dictatorships throughout history. In their own enclaves, (non-believers excluded of course) they sip their martinis and spend the time agreeing with eaxhother while disdaining any divergent ideas from the peasants. Their are three types of liberals whose policies will destroy America. Naive idealists, subversives and idiots.
You have to wonder which page of National Enquirer Harry Belafonte got his statistics from, because the only people supporting Chavez are in Hollywood.
Actually these people are identified as Holly-wierdos. Appropriately named by a brilliant journalist. Please, everyone out here, try to remember that thse people are heathens of the 1st and only kind. We must not behave like them. They are already thier own demisees!!!!!!!!!!!!! They have an agenda of hatred that will eventually cause them to eat each other. “Hope springs eternal. I was once a Liberal Lune! Thank God for the philosphy of Conservatism. It just makes sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Amazing how small brained these people are. Apparently they think their ancestors made the earth, and that’w why they expect to ‘rule’ it. They have more arrogance than I’ve ever seen. Frankly I will be glad when God gives them what they deserve.
Oh give me a break! That Charlie Rangle (who I think should be in jail) hates our military is fabrication. Many military people join because they love and want to help their country but there are also very many who join so they can feed themselves and their families.

“Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion?
——————————
You are correct. these heinuos crimes were committed in the “NAME” of Christianity.
However, one only has to read the Holy Bible to see that this is not nor ever was Christianity.
This is the selfish greed of humanity that has twisted God’s Words to fit their self rightousness.
This is what RELIGION is. That is why it always fails and has left a negative note in history.
God makes it very clear from the beginning and all throughout the Scriptures that He is about wanting a relationship with any human being.
This is true Christianity according to God’s Word:
The human being must start this relationship by saying to God (Jehovah) of the Holy Bible that He is the only God and that Jesus Christ the Messiah is His only Son. Also that Jesus died on the cross for every human beings sins and God raised Him from the grave bodily and is now in Heaven.
Once someone says the above to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit will spiritually be within you. You will be sealed so that when you die your destination will be with Him forever. God states many times that this is the “only” way to enter Heaven.
God also says that you can never lose this promise (covenant) no matter what happens in the future.
People speak of God having an “Unforgiveable sin” that will prevent us from ever entering Heaven.
That is true. God identifies this “sin” as the person that does not say those above words to Him.
Jesus Christ came to earth the first time as a servant and to be the last sacrificial Lamb dying on the cross. Jesus is coming again and this time He will come and easily conquer all the evil on this planet.
A few years ago at the Detroit Dream Cruise, I saw a man with the following statement on his T-shirt back.
“Yes, Jesus is coming again…….and is He ever pissed!!”
To make a long story short; that says it all.
If you really want to know who God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit is and how you are to live your life on this planet. Then read the Gospel of John. Simply read one chapter each day and ask God to help you understand what you just read. When you come to the end you will have all these answers.
Exactly my point about religion! You said it very well.
We all interpret what we read in the Bible a little differently so no human can be absolutely certain about what God wants and some religions pretend that they do know.
do you also agree with Elton John that religion should be banned legally? if so, you are a perfect illustration of the intolerance of the Left. Does the fact that you don’t like religion mean that you must ban others from practicing their faith? If so, you really ought to move to another country.
No – absolutely not. Some people like to be with others who believe like they do.
I was looking at it as banned from my life.
I think that the influence of one persons beliefs should not affect what another believes and that is why we keep Government out of religion in the U.S.A.

Has G.Paltrow been in the part of the UK that has been takenn over by islamic muslims and is ruled by sharia law? England declared, along with Germany and France, that it was a disasterous error to admit this many muslims to their countries, which resulted in these countries STRUGGLING TO MAINTAIN THEIR OWN IDENTITY AND CULTURE.
MULTICULTURALISM HAS BEEN DECLARED A FAILURE!
(BY THOSE WHO KNOW)
The nationality of any immigrants cannot be allowed to outnumber natives of the country if the culture, language, and laws of the host country are to be maintained. That means it is mandatory that close attention be paid to the number of one nationality immigrating to a host country, if the basic values and culture are to survive and not be forcefully replaced by incoming immigrants.
The host country tolerates the culture of incoming only as long as it does not overturn those of the host country, or the laws of the host country. Incoming MUST assimilate or leave. No question about it for any country.
You know we have had assholes like these people from day one of our country. We have always been able to over come them. I do have to say, I have never seen so many communist and American haters in power in Washington DC. It starts at the very top with obama carrying the commie flag. We all know that actors and singers are not the sharpest tools in the shed!
The Left uses our tolerance against us like a weapon. Shallow graves await us if we do not resist their malevolent nature.
In response to Hillary. Like you?
REVENGE, is voting the liberal progressive traitors out of office, and watching them squirm when the Republican party controls all 3 areas of power.
VOTE: Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin.
Everyone should check out Brigette Gabriel on YouTube. She is a Christian Lebanese immigrant. Her story could be our story if we aren’t vigilant. Try to find the speech where she introduces her husband, what a blessing. MJB
One look at ‘Billary’ Clinton is enough to turn any man gay. Avoid eye contact at all costs!
