"Senator Ahab" (Subtitle)
The Washington Times ^ | September 23, 2005 | Greg Pierce

Posted on 09/23/2005 7:58:15 AM PDT by Ben Mugged

New York Times columnist David Brooks noticed a certain hostility in Sen. John Kerry's speech this week about Hurricane Katrina.

"Kerry began his speech by making the point that Bush and his crew are rotten. He then went on to make the point that Bush and his crew are loathsome. In the third section of the speech, Kerry left the impression that Bush and his crew are evil," Mr. Brooks writes.

"Now we all know people so consumed by hatred for George Bush that they haven't had an unpredictable thought in five years, but in Kerry's speech one sees this anger in almost clinical form.

"In the first place, not even Karl Rove's worldview is so obsessively Bush-centric as John Kerry's. There are many interesting issues raised by Katrina, but for Senator Ahab it all goes back to the great white monster, Bush. Bush and his crew should have known the levees were weak. Bush and his crew should have known thousands in New Orleans would be trapped. (Did I miss Kerry's own warnings on these subjects?)

"All reality flows back to Bush. All begins with Bush, ends with Bush, is explained by Bush and is polluted by Bush, cursed be thy name."

Indeed. I have been saying for a quite a while now that Bush is the lefts Moby Dick. Captain Ahab was even warned by prophecy that his mad vengeance would end in disaster. But he did not listen. And neither does the left. They are too far gone for that now. Hatred is all thats left.

"All that most maddens and torments; all that stirs up the lees of things; all
truth with malice in it; all that cracks the sinews and cakes the brain; all
the subtle demonisms of life and thought; all evil, to crazy Ahab, were
visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Moby Dick. He piled
upon the whale's white hump the sum of all the general rage and hate felt by
his whole race from Adam down; and then, as if his chest had been a mortar, he
burst his hot heart's shell upon it."

"Predictable"--yes. It's one reason why I no longer watch either Letterman or Leno: I can recite fairly precisely the jokes for the evening. Every night, same bad, unfunny jokes which all, for the most part, say one thing: the President is stupid, and Republicans are evil. Test patterns are more interesting. The same can be said of almost any 'Rat in front of a microphone and a camera.

Moby Dick is the first novel of American Literature.

Kerry is a self-hating Jew who is driven by that obsession and Bush is the symbol of support for Israel.

Since when is Kerry a Jew? He's only a Jew when he campaigns in NYC or other heavily Jewish areas. Just like Hitlery discoverd her "jewish roots" during her senate campaign. Both Kerry and the Evil B*tch are panderers and opportunsts. Kerry is a gigolo who worships money and marries other men's wives and daughters to get it. Hitlery is just evil who worships power and will murder and lie to get it.

Kerry is a prime example of an embittered individual who harbors(clutches to his chest)the bitter spirit(Biblical)rising up in him that must to be rejected else it will defile the whole body!

I am really very surprised that apparently his church affiliation has no power in that area!

Or mabye they do not warn their membership of this pernicious practice!

Anyway it certainly is evident in the "transparent religiousity" of the left in their attitude and as a consequence their treatment of those who invoke their bitter, bitter ire!

Oh goodie, just like Rush said:

"Let them explain who they are, let them tell us who they are, encourage them to tell the truth" and Kerry did...

They hate Bush and ANYONE that believes in the Bush Administration so much they don't have a agenda for anything, and remember, they are running against Bush this time again....they have forgotten thru their hatred, Bush isn't running this time....

I hope Kerry runs again. Cindy Sheehan could be his running mate.

I don't think Kerry (you know he served in Viet Nam) is radical enough for Shehan.
