As for the accusations, they're a bit hollow, Otto. People on the left commonly utilize our most powerful weapon, irony steeped in dry whit, against people we disagree with.

It seems clear from the video, these people are being ironic. Liberals freed the slaves. Liberals, mostly, are for gun control. You see how what they say sounds like what you hear from the Tea Party? That's irony!

Wait... so because I'm conservative it means I don't have wit, sarcasm, or irony? I can't seem to express it where someone takes it out of context? I'd say the same broad statement that "it's not safe to take everything we say literally."
Liberals freed the slaves? Hmmm... Abraham Lincoln was a Republican.
