Me too! The dude on Hannity and Colmes was waving that one.
Joe Wilson has been so thoroughly debunked that it's a mark of how biasd ABC is that he's allowed on. Koppel is not interested in becoming INFORMED--he does not have strong voices from all sides of the story. Look at the ones who are against the war--there are sound, logical reasons for being against it, but Koppel will take the radical, emotional spokespeople every time.
I had to turn it off......... I like to stay informed on what the wackos are doing......but this was too much for me.
Sad thing is, how many people are watching this crap and believing it?
I have no problem with anyone being against the war as a sincere matter of principal. That is what makes our nation what it is. The left has only one reason to offer:
"Liar, liar pants on fire." Followed by sticking out their tongues.
But this is not a matter of being against the war. This is anti-Bush.
Of course, we all want our troops home.
As a child of the 60's, I can see the aging anti-Viet Nam hippies gasping for another chance of national prominence. They want to turn this into another Viet Nam. They are using the same rhetoric to turn this nation against our efforts, hoping against hope Bush suffers Nixon's fate.
Our defeat in Viet Nam (and the resulting death of so many, many South Vietnamese) is the sole responsibility of Congress because they refused to fund our efforts. Ted Kennedy was a part of that Congress. If I had the time or the inclination, I would do a search for his public statements back then and compare them with what he said yesterday. I bet I would find more similarities than differences.
"No one is calling for the immediate withdrawal of troops."
Oh yeah? Teddy the Lifeguard Flunkie was calling for just that today.
This is what we are in for in these next four years. The left is willing to sacrifice the good of the nation because of their hatred for President Bush.
Lessons learned? None. The defeat of daschle and his ilk has only strengthened their resolve to destroy the President.
BTW, George Allen did an excellent job.
