For those wishing to share a gentle, FReeperish little observation or three with the (demonstrably) addlepated little leftist yipyop, after perusing the above yowlings: kberger@seattleweekly.com .
No, Coulter makes a living out of laughing at you! Get a clue.
Every time I stare at those words, ordered thusly: my eyes cross, involuntarily. :)
In other words, what he's saying is that lying doesn't work.
I DEFENDED MCDERMOTT in this column when he went to Baghdad before the war and called Bush a liar on national TV. McDermott later admitted that was a mistake. Not an error of factit's even clearer now that Bush lied about the reasons for going to warbut a political blunder.
Bush lied? About what, that Saddam was a threat? That's obvious now. About the brutality of his regime? No, we have lots of creepy home videos from the Hussein family. Oh, it must be the WMD.
The fact that the CIA was EMASCULATED by leftists at the highest levels, starting with Sen. Frank Church's undermining of our intelligence gathering capabilities, has NOTHING to do with having to play catch-up now. It took us 8 months to find Aqualung--er, Saddam. Now you liberals expect us to just trip over chunks of Uranium and vials of sarin gas in the streets of Tikrit? Please.
They made an art of deception and concealment. What with Hans Blix and the Doofus Brigade visiting baby milk factories, driving around in the Mystery Machine looking for WMD, the Iraqi government became very adept at the art of illusion. It wouldn't surprise me if some of this stuff turned up in Iran or Syria.
In short, you liberals have nothing, NOTHING to run on except paranoia and emotions. And the resorvoir of emotion is finite. You will lose BIG in Nov., and it's your own fault. Get a clue. The majority of Americans are not socialists or communists. Once they start to actually think about politics, they invariably turn to the right.
Have a nice day.
Madeleine Albright Excerpts from a Monitor breakfast on: capturing Saddam Hussein, North Korea, and foreign fighters in Iraq ****On the view of America she finds in travels overseas:
"I have never seen in my lifetime the United States at such a low level of regard. We are now viewed - and I am quoting - as a rogue state, as a country that has no ability to understand ... how we affect other countries and do not take into consideration other countries' national interests at all in creating our own which, from my perspective, weakens our argument for national interests. So I think there is a genuine question as to their (Republicans') national security credentials."
On the failure to capture or kill Osama Bin laden and Saddam Hussein: "Saddam Hussein's continued life is more of a problem than Osama bin Laden's. Because if we look at what has been happening with the insurgency [in Iraq] and stories in the last few days [about] funds that Saddam Hussein somehow has access to ... in many ways he has a lot of levers he was used to pulling. The question is whether the strings are attached... His continued life is creating huge problems. And while the [Bush] administration is basically saying none of this matters any more, I think it does matter. Whether they capture him there is no way of telling. Osama bin Laden ...I think it would be better if Osama bin Laden were captured. That is what they promised us and it hasn't happened."*** [More at LINK]
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury: the prosecution rests. How do you find the defendant...? :)
.But Bill Clinton is not like those who worship him, corrupting himself and others for a higher cause. Unlike them, he betrays principles because he has none. He will even betray his country, but without the slightest need to betray it for something else-for an idea, a party, or a cause. He is a narcissist who sacrifices principle for power because his vision is so filled with himself that he cannot tell the difference.
But the idealists who serve him-the Stephanopoulos's, the Ickes's, the feminists, the progressives and Hillary Clinton-can tell the difference. Their cynicism flows from the very perception they have of right and wrong. They do it for higher ends. They do it for the progressive faith. They do it because they see themselves as having the power to redeem the world from evil. It is that terrifyingly exalted ambition that fuels their spiritual arrogance and justifies their sordid and, if necessary, criminal means.
And that is why they hate conservatives. They hate you because you are killers of their dream. Because you are defenders of a Constitution that thwarts their cause. They hate you because your "reactionary" commitment to individual rights, to a single standard and to a neutral and limited state obstructs their progressive designs. They hate you because you are believers in property and its rights as the cornerstones of prosperity and human freedom; because you do not see the market economy as a mere instrument for acquiring personal wealth and political war chests, to be overcome in the end by bureaucratic schemes.
Conservatives who think progressives are misinformed idealists will forever be blind-sided by the malice of the left-by the cynicism of those who pride themselves on principle, by the viciousness of those who champion sensitivity, by the intolerance of those who call themselves liberal, and by the ruthless disregard for the well-being of the downtrodden by those who preen themselves as social saints.
Conservatives are caught by surprise because they see progressives as merely misguided, when in fact they are fundamentally misdirected. They are the messianists of a religious faith. But it is a false faith and a self-serving religion. Since the redeemed future that justifies their existence and rationalizes their hypocrisy can never be realized, what really motivates progressives is a modern idolatry: their limitless passion for the continuance of Them. ***Source

This is great. Understand that the day will come when each leftist argument against the War on Terror will be exposed for the tissue of lies that it is. Saddam's capture brings that day ever closer. There are the leftists, in the bunker, moving phantom armies in the night. Stephen Hayes' expose of the Al Qaeda-Saddam connexion knocked one pillar from their belief system. Saddam's capture destroyed one more. Now, we will find out about the fate of the WMD. When we do, our triumph will be complete.
The Left chose the path of the Lie when they first decided to undermine George W. Bush. They forgot that Bush was an exceedingly patient man.
Be Seeing You,
Chris
