Just goes to show ya, I'll believe anything bad about McPain!
Indeed. Liberals are so predictably "reactionary" that we've been able to figure out how to play them for suckers.
We put out the bait...they snap it up.
A you'll-want-to-bookmark-these-comments, ping.
This is good. Thanks. I don't see where he says "democrat" do you?

See post # 95 (no, it's not true)
If they didn't already have this formatted and waiting.
I'll take that tagline!
Watch and see how the MSM spins it. This gives them an excuse to drop the Durbin story. Of course it'll still be talked about here, on talk radio, and on FOX. But most of the country will never hear of it again.
The Rats were getting millions from Soros and allowed Moore to sit with Jimmy Carter at their convention. They should have hung these statments around Kerry's neck.
God Bless the USA bump
This is hilarious...each Repub senator should as part of their comments simply read off the litany of statements by Democrats. They're telling and they buttress Rove's point.
BTW, the megalomaniac that is the Dem Party chair, has been throwing bombs for weeks now. They can dish it but they can't take it. What's sauce for the goose...
The important parts:
But perhaps the most important difference between conservatives and liberals can be found in the area of national security. Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers. In the wake of 9/11, conservatives believed it was time to unleash the might and power of the United States military against the Taliban; in the wake of 9/11, liberals believed it was time to submit a petition. I am not joking. Submitting a petition is precisely what Moveon.org did. It was a petition imploring the powers that be to use moderation and restraint in responding to the terrorist attacks against the United States.
I dont know about you, but moderation and restraint is not what I felt as I watched the Twin Towers crumble to the earth; a side of the Pentagon destroyed; and almost 3,000 of our fellow citizens perish in flames and rubble.
Moderation and restraint is not what I felt and moderation and restraint is not what was called for. It was a moment to summon our national will and to brandish steel.
MoveOn.Org, Michael Moore and Howard Dean may not have agreed with this, but the American people did.

Thanks to this transcript, and you locating it, we now know the MSM has SPINNED this 179 degrees out phase. The closest reference to the word, "Democrats" or the phrase, "Democratic Party" was this one TINY mention of "Howard Dean".
Now we know for sure that these comments were absolutely appropriate for the occasion.
That would be true if Rove controlled the spin cycle. But judging the transcript in the Scott Mclellan press conference, the MSM is working this in a way that;s not favorable. No surprise there. Other than Fox, it'll be a constant drumbeat about the "hateful" comments of Rove.
But I guess I'm in the minority on this. It just seems to me that Rove "out-clevered" himself this time.
I don't think MSM carried the Durbin story in the first place. MSM are a wholy owned subsidiary of the DNC, and do not report negatively about democrats. They will however, jump all over the Rove statements. It will be funny to watch; we should all get a graet laugh out of the bias we will witness.
Gotta bump for a read and save.
I'm so much happier when I'm not disppointed by the inability of our leaders to avoid duplicity.
Doesn't say much for my opinion of McCain that I would fall so easily for that kind of reaction from him.
I figure if McCain has any intention of running for President, and I know he does, Rove could make or break him. My guess from the transcript of Rove's speech is that he won't lift a finger on his pudgy little hand to help McCain, a liberal in conservative clothing.
Rove 2008 - hear the liberal heads explode at the mere mention.
It seems it's not so hard to trap desperate animals, LOL.
The Architect strikes again, hooray.
Choice. Very choice.
:-D
