The sick mind of Dan Riehl
Ever since Barack Obama was elected President of the United States, the conservative movement has been having seismic convulsions over it. The bile, rage and disgusting behavior have exponentially increased and is still ongoing as the media captures it for the nation to see.
Dan Riehl's latest post about Harry's Reid's family tragedy is yet another example of that lunacy, but just another version of the same song. This one is particularly nauseating.
As you may know, Senator Harry Reid's 69 year old wife and 48 year old daughter were involved in a bad car accident Friday. Normal, decent Americans would ignore what political party they were in and hope that their suffering is as short lived as possible. To Dan Riehl, that expression takes on a sick new meaning:
Isn't It Time To Euthanize Reid's Wife?
I'm not sure I quite understand this, given that cost is so important as a burden to taxpayers when it comes to health care. If Democrats want so badly to abort babies because of it, why are we bothering with someone who has a broken neck and back at 69? It sounds to me like she's pretty well used up and has probably been living off the taxpayers for plenty of years to begin with. Aren't we at least going to get a vote on it?
Sen. Reid's daughter Lana Reid Barringer, 48, who was driving the mini-van, and his wife, Landra G. Reid, 69, a passenger, were both injured. Landra suffered a broken back and a broken neck in the crash; Barringer suffered minor injuries, Sen. Reid's office said Thursday.
I realize her crook of a husband and his pals in Congress have excluded themselves from the mess they're going to compel everyone else to join, but we're still paying the bills, are we not? I don't see that she's worth it at this point, frankly. I can't recall her ever doing anything for me. Come on, Harry - do your civic duty. The nation's broke and counting on you guy. Pull the plug and get back to work. And don't bill us for a full day today, either. This is no time to be sloughing off. Air freight her home, you can bury her during recess on your own time and dime. Or are you going to bill us for that, too?
Reid has stayed at his wife’s bedside throughout the day Friday and returned to the Capitol in the late afternoon.
I guess it doesn't matter to Riehl that Reid is a Mormon and is strictly pro-life. But let's forget about Harry's religious beliefs. Riehl demonstrates the insanity that epitomizes the conservative movement.
And these are the people that the media demands the White House should try and reach out to and work with in a more bipartisan fashion. I guess Dan Riehl supports some form of those Palin death panels after all.
How can you work with crazy people?
He would have to have a "soul" to be sick. Since he does not have one, he is not human.
To make comments about anyone's wife or husband like this shows how much of a turd he is.
"Let's talk dirty to the animals"
those "compassionate conservatives": They will go to the wall and murder abortion doctors for a zygote that nobody knows for certain will ever be a living, breathing human being, but are quite comfortable saying things like this, the death penalty, and war. Sounds like mental illness to me.
“The greatest evildoers are those who don’t remember because they have never given thought to the matter, and, without remembrance, nothing can hold them back,”
the reaction would be had a Democrat said that!
It is the whole d... republican party.. They are a good example of what is wrong with our country...
I use to have respect for most of the republicans although I disagreed with most of their policies...
But they do not have policies anymore , it is now hate and greed...
They wave the American flag , Say they are family persons while holding the bible , yet their words and actions tell and show a entirely different story..
What is really hard to believe is that the Catholic Church and other so called religious leaders are attacking the democrats while kissing the a... of persons like this..
They hid their sex criminals from their parash members and gave them protection and communion .... WHILE...THEY
said no communion should be given to Kerry because he would not force his beliefs on anther persons , yet they kiss Bush's a... while he invaded another's country with lies , deceit and their resources,,, while killing 100 of thousand innocent women , children and men....
Plus the criminal crimes and moral policies he has committed...
None

... to euthanize the media, including Riehl. I'm sure that will cut down on CO2 emissions quite drastically.
How the hell can CNN call itself anything but a propaganda organ of the reichwing when it gives a forum to a malign sociopath like this guy?
At this point, I wouldn't trust anything CNN said without fact checking, even if it reported that the sky is very often blue during daylight hours.
Based on the screen capture photo of Mr. Riehl, I would say CNN had him on before or during the last time a President named Bush gave a State of the Union speech. I don't see any evidence this screen capture has anything to do with his recent blog comment.

Sorry, misunderstood.
Is still walking the streets and running their BS and propaganda on the news media.
Rove & Cheney and the whole d... criminal mob from the Bush administration..
This is what happens when persons like Obama say we have to forget the past and go forward..'
When you do not clean up the BS when it happens ,,, it just keeps stinking more and more , effecting more and more as time goes by...
Why do we have a constitution and laws if we are going to let the very persons which are responsible for upholding and protecting them off ,, when they are the very ones which are breaking them..
None
pull the plug on Dan Reihl?
are beyond anything that is real. What scum.
"Let's talk dirty to the animals"
This is yet another example of "compassionate conservatism". I'm sure that, by the end of the week, this steaming pile will be all over Faux Spews whining that his comments were taken out of context. But, come next CPAC convention, he'll be right there, regurgitating this putrid bile and receiving a standing ovation.
They don't have the morals or the intelligence to make sound rational decisions. They have never been able to develop the capacity to feel shame. They show how batshit crazy the are everyday.
republicanism/conservatism is a mental illness! They have killed the economy and ruined the lives of millions of people!
I'm impressed, I didn't even see Rush move his mouth.
Good one!
“The greatest evildoers are those who don’t remember because they have never given thought to the matter, and, without remembrance, nothing can hold them back,”
Just... wow.
I know. I am not sure what to say. This is just amazing. If a progressive were to go on TV and talk about former Vice President Cheney each time he goes in for "heart" issues, they would be crucified.

has is to be repugnant -- in the hope that people will disengage.
Riehl's comments are admirably suited to Rethug 'morality'. As in, if you get sick, die quick.
A good thing dueling is no longer permitted in this country; a lot of "bulldog mouth/puppydog ass" Rethug politicians (as my Marine father referred to Bush's 'chickenhawks') spouting this nonsense would be 6 feet under themselves. That would lead to actual 'evolution'. As in 'improving the breed'.
Guns are too easy.
is CNN let's these nutjobs have a platform. CNN is so desperate for fox type demos. that they let the reichwing noise machine into some of their segments.
how come CNN only does full story's and background news on the weekend?

If I were still drinking and it became nauseating, I wouldn't turn my head long enough to blow chunks on the losers at C&L. Swallow that, you clowns!
And don't forget, Obama Care advocates advocate euthanizing people opposed to his bad bill.
But that's just polite political discourse from the kill babies to cut costs crew, I'm sure.
I'm not sure I quite understand this, given that cost is so important as a burden to taxpayers when it comes to health care. If Democrats want so badly to abort babies because of it, why are we bothering with someone who has a broken neck and back at 69?
... injured in a car accident (which was not her fault) be euthanized 'polite political discourse'?
How is continued LYING about the euthanasia/death panel nonsense 'polite political discourse'?
How is talk about whether or not you'd vomit on your opponents 'polite political discourse'?
I submit, Sir, that you know nothing of polite political discourse, and your rush to justify your reprehensible remarks clearly demonstrates this.

Quite the witty comment....loved it. From what I've seen, those who live in the self-imposed Rectangle of FEAR, are unraveling faster than granny's old sweater.
The greater the fear, the angrier the behavior. It is escalating, and testimonies abound from people who have escaped the trap, but still have family members who live in that box of fear. Best to steer clear of the toxic, and focus on keeping the love and light beaming in your own world.
Very tragic accident. Hope they all BLOW dan the asshole's mind and experience an amazingly quick recovery.
You might want to check the percentage of republican women having abortions.
"I know that there are people who do not love their fellow
man, and I hate people like that! " ~ Tom Lehrer (1928 - )
the only bad abortion is the one they aren't a party to.
Also don't forget, the fact that conservatives have to tell lies this huge tells you everything you need to know about them.
How else would they try to make Obama look like a Nazi (besides painting a small mustache on him)?
He's a milquetoast politician who thinks that he can reason with people who have no interest other than undermining everything he does in the name of politics.
Definitely not a Hitler. If Obama were Hitler, he would have "disappeared" the teabaggers around the time he burned the Reichstag and declared himself sole ruler.
At least the Bush comparisons to Hitler were a little closer -- possible false flag operations, "disappearing" people to Guantanamo and attempting to do end runs around the Congress... not Hitler, but a little closer.
has advocated passing the healthcare bill. At least the church is pro-life, as it does not advocate euthanizing anyone, including Mrs. Reid, nor in capital punishment, which many on the right just LOVE (is the right sadistic or what?). Further, it provides services for unwed mothers after the babies are born, while the right just leaves them hanging. Criticisms of the church aside, let us vow not call the right pro-life. Anti-abortion, anti-poor, anti-sick, anti-weak. Just anti-human, as Riehl proves. Period.
....was a rambling, stupid, incoherent and largely-repost-of-the-C&L-entry from a trolling doof. Seriously, what is your point, other than looking for attention, yon lonely person?
I'm just superstitious enough to hedge my bets.
shooting abortion doctors; equating zygotes with living, breathing humans; championing wars which kill hundreds of thousands; and cheerleading the death penalty with preserving the life of a woman with a broken back who shows no signs of dying. You idiots will grasp at straws to try to make your absurd points. Next time you get a hangnail, how's about we hang you.
“The greatest evildoers are those who don’t remember because they have never given thought to the matter, and, without remembrance, nothing can hold them back,”
And his post is from the just-spend-money-everywhere-but-cut-our-taxes crew.
BTW Riehl, a woman choosing a medical procedure doesn't have much to do with 'cutting costs.'
I'd ask how you can face that nasty mug of yours in the mirror every day, but I'm pretty sure there's no reflection.
me-oww!
This evil sick-minded monster Dan Riehl was given a national forum to spew his bile on CNN?! OMG is there no END to this madness? I am just so disappointed in CNN. I used to rely upon CNN but am turning it off because of this. Disgusting.
Faux Noise, Jr.
“The greatest evildoers are those who don’t remember because they have never given thought to the matter, and, without remembrance, nothing can hold them back,”
Riehl appeared as a right wing blogger counterweight to a left wing blogger on a segment of Howard Kurtz's Reliable Sources in 2007. C&L posted about it at the time. That is where this screen capture comes from. There is nothing other than the picture on this post to connect Riehl's statement to CNN.
Don't jump to conclusions.

he said it. C&L is just putting a face on it.
“The greatest evildoers are those who don’t remember because they have never given thought to the matter, and, without remembrance, nothing can hold them back,”
I don't see the point of CNN broadcasting this. I realize true journalism won't be found anywhere in the MSM but don't we already have a "nut-job with a bullhorn" station called, "Fox"?
Perhaps because they didn't.

Riehl is just following in the stupid, stupid footsteps of Limbaugh by trying to "satirically" make the point that Reid is a hypocrite because his behavior doesn't match conservative misrepresentations of his beliefs. Limbaugh does this all the time, and then accuses people of not "getting" his "satire", missing the larger point that the whole enterprise is just a truckload of bullshit.
Yeah, I don't think anybody should make the mistake of believing Riehl actually means what he says here...that just makes us look really dumb. It's obviously a very mean, satirical jab. The question really is, is it sick to make a jab like this or is it just wildly inappropriate? And dumb.
Now that I look at it again...yeah: sick. Even if he doesn't mean it.
Why choose? Riehl is being opportunistic, obnoxious and crass in his methods, and completely dishonest in substance.
Or, in the world of sleazy right-wing horseshit, "Monday".
At least the repukes are providing plenty of great footage for the Dems to use as paid national commercials which much of the American public will see during 2010 and 2012 election cycles. "Compassionate conservatives" baaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaahhhhaaaaaaaaa.
put it succinctly regarding Riehl. He called him "an unmitigated asshole."
The Sick and The Stupid
"Let's talk dirty to the animals"
... in assholeness.
Just think how much worse it would be if he turned out to be merely a mitigated asshole.
.
"Let's talk dirty to the animals"
Usually, things like honesty or humor can serve to mitigate assholity, but Riehl doesn't come within a hundred miles of either of those things. Cole's assessment stands.
Or is this Jackalope asking to convene a "death Panel" so he can vote as to whether she lives or dies??
No, Riehl is trying to say something along the lines of "see, Reed supports Death Panels, but not for his wife! That makes him a hypocrite!".
This is exactly the kind of completely bullshit "gotcha" that is so popular in right-wing dis-infotainment.
More money spent on the suit and the hair than on the soul, plus that permanently constipated look where shit is just looking for any orifice from which to escape.

At what point do people on the conservative side realize that someting is very wrong here. When do we start to hear the protest and correct responce to the dangerous and sick comments being made on behalf of conservative repube party?
Their continued silence is very very revealing. they truely are the silent minority.
Sounds like the Reid women have something on a GOP solon--or more.
Connell didn't live through the plane crash, but these two ladies made it through the collision. I know firsthand about Republican collision-for-profit families in the Southeast, and this sure sounds like the mouthpiece of a man who wanted rid of some evidence.
I still can't even believe they put inhuman people like this on the air.
If he meant it to be some sort of funny, it isn't. I wish I hadn't even read it.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.

"It is beneath our dignity to engage in the airing of the concept to "air freight her home" as the ORIGINAL post stated....
To point out their hypocrisy and their evil is one thing, but the original post did not accomplish this.
Christians everywhere should pray for the recovery of Mrs. Reid, and that perhaps through this, her husband can see the evil that he does and repent.p>"

Sound like even conservative need to grow pears.

The poster to whom Riehl is responding is clearly not a 'real' Christian.
I like him calling a commenter named Blanche a "statist bag of crap." Were Amato to try something like that here with the likes of me I would profess hurt feelings and challenge whether "bag" was an appropriate container for crap.

Nope! I didn't go to his site and I don't intend to go there. Seems the entire nation has a pear shortage these days. I bought a pair of hanging strawberry plants Saturday. Let's see if I can grow that pair.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
. . . their personal failings onto other people and the Left in particular, I'd say Riehl's own marriage is probably at the wanting-her-dead stage.
He obviously has a problem with women receiving medical care on a few fronts. He's got a creepy vibe going, too. Just saying, he's someone I wouldn't trust to be around children. Some things just go together a little too often to ignore.

A salient feature of sociopathy: supreme selfishness made manifest as the absence of any drive or instinct towards altruism.
"Conservative Sociopathy" sounds closer to the truth than "Liberal Fascism."
"Conservative Sociopathy" has been redundant at least since Rand.
... is reading 'Atlas Shrugged' in an attempt to understand his far more conservative older brother.
The young man is making faces and wondering how his brother can believe this tripe.
I dated a huge Rand fan in college, and that prompted me to read up. Rand's message is of a piece with pretty much all of modern conservative apologia: pseudo-logical rationalizations for all manner of sleazy and dickish behavior; simplistic, easy-to-regurgitate easy answers to complex issues; and shameless, con-artist-like flattering of the ego of a target audience that delusionally considers itself to be smarter than everyone else.
Ayn Rand very consciously planted the seeds for the "modern conservative movement."
It's no coincidence "conservatives" read her works.
Untold millions have been spent by conservative think tanks sponsoring classes and academic chairs in otherwise respectable universities specifically to inject Rand's poisonous ideology into the minds of our youth.
Bear in mind Rand is an unapologetic atheist.
Rub that in their evangelical faces next time they quote her!
Democracy is too important to be entrusted to politicians.
Rise Up!
Protest!
Ugh, nauseating.
...what we are all getting so upset about! This Riehl person is clearly doing satire! Just because we aren't good conservatives and can't comprehend high-minded humor....
I'm just superstitious enough to hedge my bets.
..SORRY, I just deleted myself regarding my post. It was not kind to this ugly bag of water.
Mickey: "It was an epiphany. Do you know what an epipany is?"

Wow! That's all I can say about Riehl's comments. I'm just left speechless. I guess CNN is trying to out Limbaugh Limbaugh.

who is this guy again?
I just checked out his website (he calls out C&L BTW) and there's nothing on the guy. He doesn't post any information about himself (although digging through is site, I'm not really surprised).
Why is CNN giving face time to this nobody?
Before enlightenment - chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment - chop wood, carry water.
The American Racist Nazi republiCANTS are out in full force this pice of SHIT should loose his job and people need to bail on CNN, NO apology is going to be redeeming enough.
Now I would strongly encourage those with very strong political idealogies to see thsat this piece of shit has a permanet accident. I voluteer to pull the plug.
Had to edit my post to avoid having it deleted by the site monitors. Suffice to say, I am really pissed at CNN for broadcasting this piece of shit.
You can't. What is crazy is to think that you can.
These hateful Christians are the face of the GOP. They have been growing in both strength and malevolence since Reagan and.. it's worked! They control most of the money in politics. They control the airwaves with Clear Channel and Fox.
They use wholly un-American tactics to obfuscate in Congress and then, when they have nothing else...they lie! And that works, too!
They can be diaper wearing Senate perverts. The Christian GOP doesn't care. They can be US Rep pedophiles. The Christian GOP protects them. They can be drugged addled TV and Radio hosts who espouse hate crimes. The Christian GOP pours millions into their shows.
The dank depths that the Christian GOP is willing to go is bottomless. Their only goal is to - WIN. What ever that means to them at the moment. Nothing else matters.
The Christian GOP is a collection of the very worst in American society. They are abject hypocrites and they are willing to do and say ANYTHING to - Win.
The headlines prove it.
My first thought when I heard about Reid's wife and daughter injured when a semi rear-ended the mini van in which they were passengers was that it was a criminal act intended to intimidate Reid.
The CRIMINALS who run this country (and I'm not talking about elected officials) will stop at nothing to get their way.
I assume they either had something on the driver of the rig, or threatened his family, or some such to get him to attack Reid's wife and daughter with his rig.
Democracy is too important to be entrusted to politicians.

Otherwise, Dan Riehl is a coward.

The truth will set you free but can you handle the truth?
Just when we thought it couldn't get uglier, this revolting piece of trash opens his pie-hole and proves us all wrong.
as Ricky has been trying to tell you. C&L put up this picture from a previous time Riehl was on CNN. It says "bush's State Of The Union".
The horrible remarks from Riehl are from his blog. The sick bastard!
