Well gosh golly it took only upward of 500 dead U.S. soldiers (and counting) and more than 2,500 U.S. wounded (and counting) and more than 10,000 dead innocent Iraqi citizens (and counting) and countless tens of thousands of hapless dead Iraqi soldiers (and counting).

I just sent a mail recommended he either visit Baghdad himself, of take a lot of ExLax. I'll let you know if he replies.

I stop reading any article when I get to a phrase like "Well gosh golly".

Remember how not one single motive BushCo gave for launching this insane war has actually been proven true?

There was only one reason givin Marky, It was UN resolution 1441.
Please shut you pie hole Marky!, and for Gods sake wipe your chin!

And now Madelain Halfbright this morning*, is insinuating that the Bush Administration is holding Osama Bin Laden, and will release the news of his capture just before the 2004 election.

*(As reported on on Fox news, by Mort Kondrake, who heard Albright's comments in the Fox Green room)

Some other Dims are claiming that Saddam has been in captivity for some time now...
The left is going absolutly stark raving mad, folks.

Morford visits his shrink:

MM: I am so mentally out of control.

Shrink: But I gave you those Thorazine suppositories.
(kiddingly) What did you do, eat them?

MM: (sarcastically) No! I shoved them up my a$$!

more than 10,000 dead innocent Iraqi citizens (and counting)

This is a lie.

And it'll only cost U.S. taxpayers at least a staggering $350 billion along with the complete gutting of our foreign policy and our national treasury and the appalling blood sacrifice of our national pride and our international status and global sense of self-respect.

This is a lie.

And now, long after his political usefulness to us has expired, we up and invade his unhappy nation and lay waste to the entire region

This is a lie.

Dubya secretly flew to Iraq a few weeks back to spend 2.5 hours pretending to serve a fake, inedible plastic turkey...

This is a lie.

By the way, from Bush Sr. forward (and, yes, that includes Clinton), the U.S. has to date killed far, far more Iraqi civilians than Saddam ever could.

This is a lie.

Not to mention the more than half a million Iraqi children who've died from lack of medicine or decent health care since the brutal, U.S.-backed U.N. sanctions were imposed 12 years ago.

This is a lie.

I'll quit there - it's just too tiresome. Miss Morford isn't even entertaining when he attempts the complexities of politics, and he certainly isn't original. This is a regurgitation of a fair percentage of already discredited posturings - it fills the page, but that's about it. First Morford column I've read without a penis reference, too. He's slipping.

He promises that he will make two penis references in his next column. We have to keep up the side, after all.

You just know that Morford's absolutely livid with the way the world is turning out. If he didn't live in the protective bubble of SF with all his butt buddies and had to join the real world, he would just shriek and burst into flames.

Well Mr Morford, you might want to consider stocking up on Valium, booze and love jelly before next November, it's going to be a difficult time for you :)

If the mood in the Democratic party is "sour", this "person" can be counted on to be "hydrochloric". I see now why it is necessary, note I did not say "good" or "wise", but necessary to reprint Morford's columns. His writings offer the perfect "reverse barometer", if I may quote from one of the Custer character's lines in the movie "Little Big Man". Everything Morford says is wrong. His ideas are uniformly illogical, and fallacious. His policy ideas would be thoroughly destructive to our nation if implemented, and his assessment of George Bush and the Iraq war is from the standpoint of an enemy of the United States, and of sanity itself. Even Morford has his place in this world.

The Democratic Party's very own "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert."

Ever notice how -- the more irrelevant and inefectual he gets -- the more red-faced and schoolgirlishly shrill he gets...? :)
