HuffPo Writer Yearns for Terror Attack, to help Dems: I Hope And Pray We Don’t Get Hit Again-BUT...

HuffPo Writer Yearns for Terror Attack

The Huffington Post (your one stop shop for the looniest of the moonbatosphere) today features a piece by Russell Shaw wishing for a major terrorist attack on America.

Because it will allow Democrats to regain power: I Hope And Pray We Don’t Get Hit Again-BUT... (Hat tip: Killgore Trout.)

What if another terror attack just before this fall’s elections could save many thousand-times the lives lost?

I start from the premise that there is already a substantial portion of the electorate that tends to vote GOP because they feel that Bush has “kept us safe,” and that the Republicans do a better job combating terrorism.

If an attack occurred just before the elections, I have to think that at least a few of the voters who persist in this “Bush has kept us safe” thinking would realize the fallacy they have been under.

If 5% of the “he’s kept us safe” revise their thinking enough to vote Democrat, well, then, the Dems could recapture the House and the Senate...

Now can we question their humanity?

You forgot to post it under MEGA Barf Alert.

Not enough room...limited to 100 characters in the title. :-)

How's this:
"Dem poster has wet dream: Thousands die; Frightened sheeple turn to Demoncrats for saftey. Pelosi becomes Speaker of the House Caliphate"

To be fair most of the comments to this on Huffpo are negative. Of course many who agree may not want to post comments. Consider how many liberals want us to lose the Iraq war.

yep, but I'd say it is much worse than that.
don't listen to me, I know nothing..nothing...nothing...
and someone moderating said, "Watch this one"
to which at this point, if I am censored......
I'll wear the censorship as a badge of honor.....
as long as I'm not forced to pick up the tab.....
but then again, my beloved politicians always see to it, I pick up the tab.
politicians and trucks....don't let anyone tell you there aren't similarities.

The unintended consequences of arianna's website has given us a window in the evil souls who wish us harm as a way to regain powers.

Just like their heroes Mao and Stalin, if the ends justify the means. Who would be surprised if they staged an attack to win an election?

Pray for W and Our Troops

No one ever said you were a Democrat.

Read it again, No one EVER said you were a Democrat!

All I am trying to do is tell you that I AGREE with you - did you catch that part?? I'm a lifelong Republican. I'm as angry as you are over the border and the illegal invasion that W and the Senate won't deal with.

But, I NEVER said you were a Democrat.

"I don't see how it would help them."That's because you don't think like a liberal.Seriously,if there was an attack on the US,the msm(print and network news)would immediately put the blame on Bush and republicans.

He who is in power should always be wary enough to enforce the nation's borders, 'cause if an attack comes, the people will know the borders weren't protected. And every single time I look at what is on the news and net, I see 'more' people dead, from an illegal, or two. Yep, fifteen of nineteen, illegally in the nation at the time of the attack first attack. Fool me once, and well you know the drill.....

Sure, the car I would put it on can't be vandalized, or at least not so that I care. It will give me a reason to smack them upside the head if I see them do it though.

I've been thinking this for the last five years.

Is that little pleasure worth having your car vandalized?

It is if the car is rigged to explode :-)

The Dems better hope we don't have another "mass casualty incident", because it just might be enough to cause a lot of well-armed American patriots to start settling those accounts.

To me this article amounts to open treason and should be prosecuted.

There is no such thing as treason in this country anymore. If there is, it is ignored and goes unpunished.

Terrorist attacks near election time benefit conservatives, not liberals.

The results of a terrorist attack would be a surge of support for conservative values. To the terrorists’ disadvantage, their methods are like a negative feedback system: more terrorist attacks will lead to more conservatives being elected who in turn will more effectively destroy the terrorists.

This is the same tactic that abortion providers did to own their clinics: they set fires to their clinics and then blamed the pro-life groups and people for "terrorism".

They convinced people through the liberal media's fake reporting that is was the pro-lifers that did it - even though among the protesters were priests, nuns, and pastors - some Christian groups bought the lie that pro-lifers had done it.

You do enough of these "fires" and that is how the F.A.C.E. legislation got passed.

It would not surprise me if Dems "fake a Terrorist attack "just before the election" because they are the same people that did the fake fires at the clinics.

** And no - I do not condone any violence at the clinics! (Especially toward the unborn!) I AM JUST SAYING - IT IS THE SAME MINDSET!
