Capture of Saddam Shows True Evil of Liberal Media and Politicians

I was suggesting to another freeper earlier that - somebody ought to start a thread to compile all examples today of disgusting, evil liberal spinning on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, etc. It was disgusting from the very beginning of the news of the capture.

An example stated on NewsMax; "Time Magazine columnist Joe Klein suggested that another 9/11 attack could revitalize Democrat hopes of defeating Bush next November. "This election, more than any other I've covered, is out of the hands of the politicians and in the hands of the events that take place in the world," he noted. "All it would take, God forbid, would be one [domestic terrorist attack] - not even on the level of the World Trade Center. You know, say they take out an elementary school or a movie theater or a shopping mall. "That could change everything," Klein predicted.

Klein was almost outrightly asking for something awful to happen, just for the Democrats' benefit. Somebody start a thread where any freeper who witnessed this stuff, writes it down. It was pathetic!! It would make a very illuminating thread!

..........

So now, I decided to start it myself. I was up this morning even before I posted third on the first thread on the capture, "Saddam Hussein Captured." And since then, I have heard and seen numerous lefty reporters and politicians say the most disgusting things in order to diminish the troops' success, the possible success of the Administration, and, at the same time, to try to boost their evil intent.

Here is hoping that every freeper who witnessed an outrageous, nasty comment today, would please include it here. If we collect all their comments in one place, it may serve to clearly illustrate their real damaging desires, and their outright evil . Thanks for any help.

Ditto your post.

Also, the History Channel did a show on how important it was for the national psyche for the people of Germany and Japan to have national trials in which innocent civilians could participate. It was a way to reconcile and get over the trauma of living under such murderous regimes.

Did you take a visit over to that DUmp today?

You betchya!

Someone on another thread said that l'il Aaron was concerned that Saddam's dignity had been taken from him. Can you believe that sh!t?!

They will drink champagne and lattes and lament the cruelty in the world while hiding in their well kept homes and academic fortresses.

You are so right. I call them, "Castle Communists".

Brown and Zahn hope President Bush doesn't gloat. Can you imagine what Bill Clinton would be doing?

[RobbyS]

Then they need to hit him on the move because security at BIA is tighter than Ft. Knox.

You should see what they are saying on DU. One nut was upset because some on DU were happy that Saddam was caught. He felt that the capture was a bad thing.

You can also be sure that behind closed doors the DNC is grinding its teeth.

NPR is conerned about Saddam's face being shown publicly and undecorously like that

After all, he was a leader and it is unseemly to be doing that.

This is from a professor of International Justice interviewed in a concerned and supportive way by an NPR flunkie.

So am I. I want the SOB to live and rat on the French and the UN.

Me too, but I just read an early account of early interrogation of him. And they said he's not talking much yet, as a matter of fact, they mentioned that he seems a little addled! Tough "hole" living, for "the ace in the hole."

[thesummerwind]

My guess is that France and Germany have hit squads right now trying to find Saddam and kill him. --- no doubt about it. My God, if he talks what are the Dems. going to say?

Saddam's new home impovement show...This Old Hole...coming soon on the WB!

I just got off the phone with a family member who gets all her news from the usual network leftist media sources. She was distraught over the death of Keiko the whale. I asked her what she thought of the big news of the day....the capture of Saddam. She told me that was no big deal and it did not mean anything.

I was amazed at that reaction, even from her. I asked what made her think his capture was not important. She said that his second in command (who's name she could not remember) now has all the money and he will just carry on the fight so catching Saddam is meaningless. Now I know she did not come up with that one on her own, so I must assume that is one of the ideas being pushed by the mainstream media. Marginalizing the significance of his capture will be important in the days ahead.

First thing I saw on ABC was Stephanopoulus saying how the Iraqi celebrations were so small.

And example of the vacuity was on ABC later where after Bush's speech the first thing they talked about was Bush's tone -- ie how he gave the speech rather than about the news itself.

They went on talking about it in terms of political nonsense.

Why do these "news" people forget they should first and foremost present information on the actual news event.

[eleni121]

Of course many of them (DU - Chomskyites)) are unhappy---after all he is the leader of the "freedom fighters" who are fighting against the "invaders"

These are the same idiot goons that love Fidel and Mao and all the rest of the evil tyrants that Leftist ideology has spawned.

Regarding your comment that Lieberman "is the only dim I can stand..."

Why IS that? Possibly because he is the only democrat candidate who even PRETENDS that religion and God are a part of his life. Every other candidate: a) never mentions it, b) says he keeps that part of his life separate from politics, c) says he isn't religious, or even worse, d) mocks religion.

At least Joe has SOME sort of moral compass, paltry though it may be.

Right now, he and Big Teddy K are eulogizing former and late Sen. Paul Simon in the town next door to me.

I was stuck running errands this morning with my 13 month old and all I had was NPR.

Their description of Saddam's capture sounding like a eulogy. They were obviously saddened. A few of the guests they had on were mildly upbeat.

I've read about the Great Debate before WWII and how once Pearl occurred that the Nazi sympathizers and isolationists STFU.

...not anymore...the enemy has breached the walls and it is....us.

Why do these "news" people forget they should first and foremost present information on the actual news event.

Probably because they think they're too smart to just report the news. They are compelled to analyze and comment on it, so that stupid, ignorant, uneducated people like us can begin to understand it.
