These people won't apologize. They don't believe they are doing anything wrong. The RATS believe they are the "ORDAINED" people who are SUPPOSED to lead us. We're just too stupid to realize it!

Add on top of all of this the un-called for ad-hominem attack on President Bush yesterday by Nancy Pelosi. The RATS are coming un-hinged.

Don't hold yer breath waiting for the pansies on the political left to ever apologize for anything. They lack the intestinal fortitude, the moral compass, the intellectual honesty and the just plain decency to ever admit their being on the wrong side of any issue.

These people are beneath contempt.

And as sure as the sun comes up...as soon as someone dares to call them out for their viscious attacks...they'll start the shrill cry of "Don't you DARE question my patriotism!!"


Somehow the RATS now equate "patriotism" with their bursts of hate speech.

Your garden variety member of the RAT party wouldn't know what PATRIOTISM is under any circumstance. How could you be accused of questioning something that has never existed?

Good point. And yet another mystery of the RATS that just makes me scratch my head in confusion about them.

Found my copy of Rush's "Undeniable Truth's" list today. av couple of them REALLY jump out at me considering what's going on in our country today.

9. When Americans oppose America, it is not always courageous and sacred; it is sometimes dangerous.

15. The Peace Movement in the US, whether by accident or design, is pro-Communist.

There is nothing to be confused about. RATS HATE America and all that she stands for. They just think that the majority of us believe their tripe about them being "caring people" that just want everybody to get along. Truth is they would turn this country into another Soviet Union in a New York minute if given another opportunity to hold the reigns of power. They must never get that chance again.

The truth is, Pres. Bush has run a remarkably able campaign in Iraq and Afganistan. The Taliban is gone, Saddam is gone, Iraq is about to have democracy, and US casualties are remarkably low for such feats as these.

Bush is going to come out with an honorable, brave and astonishly progressive legacy intact. We can suffer a few bruises now for such a reward.

I keep finding UTOL's that apply to this article in particular and the RATS in general.

31. To more and more people, a victorious US is a sinful US.

I keep hoping and praying that what you say is correct. I know several people in the military with me that are scared to death of what's going to happen to us if the Lib Kool Aid drinkers take over the WH again.

Friedman has a golden opportunity to prove he's not just another Jayson Blair, presenting fantasy as fact. Think he'll ever produce his sources for Rumsfeld's "hatred" of Powell? I don't. And I don't think he'll ever admit to his dishonesty, either. Blair is right. They're all a pack of sanctimonious hypocrites at the Times.

Notice how quiet it is when we demand an apology? Do we hear any discussions, discussions, debates about our request? No. Do we see any hand-wringing from the perp (Sen. Kennedy)? No.

So, maybe it is time the conservatives act as the dems and just completely ignore their temper tantrums and refuse to acknowledge their stupidity.

No. He won't. As soon as someone tries to get him to reveal this source...assuming the source does exist outside his word processor...he'll wrap himself in the cloak of the 1st Amendment, protecting sources...et. al.

Let him. The next day, some other commentator can write that he has it on good authority that Thomas Friedman hates black people. Let Friedman pound sand for the guy's source.

So let us calm down and let events play out. If it were not an election year, Mr. Kennedy would dare not say such reprehensible things. In two or three months when there is a legitimate Iraqi government in power, Mr. Friedman may not wish to level such absurd charges. And when the truth comes out about the U.N.'s past role in Iraq, both Iraqis and Americans may not be so ready to entrust the new democracy's future to an agency that has not only done little to save Bosnians or Rwandans, but over the past decade may well have done much to harm Iraqis

But it is an election year and that is all that counts for Kennedy and the New York Times and their accomplices. It counts more than the damage they do to the nation because in their cosmos they are trying to save the nation from the apostles of darkness.

Not only are we in an election year but we are in a 24 hour news cycle. The Clintons recognized these realities and adjusted to them so well they were able to save their presidency from the brink of impeachment. They created a war room and went to a war mode when they, but not the nation, were at war.

Now we as a nation are at war but there is no war room or any evident coordination of war policy for public consumption.

Bush's appearance before the Republicans at Congress might be the initial stirrings of a President waking from a sleep walk. Monday night he makes an important speech and one can only hope that he can lay out a path in Iraq the folks will support. Will he be on the war path or sleepwalking?

Where are all the shriekers who were stating emphatically that there were absolutely no wmds left in Iraq...if there ever were any? Last week their fatuous announcements were revealed to be lies, and I've not heard one of them, especially the head scoundrel himself Ted Kennedy, admit that they were wrong.
