A rambling piece from a recovering Leftist who is slowly, painfully groping his way to the truth.

I just have to add this,so please forgive me any who think it is out of line. When the writer mentions Bush having part or something to do with Wellstones death, I say maybe if it were investigated it would lead closer to his leader by the name of Daschle. Not so much an attempt to kill Mr. Wellstone but from the part Daschles wife played in the past with the aviation industry, especially in that area of the country.Democrats and Liberals have a tendacy to be in the middle of things and push the button when getting paranoid hoping their part in mess wont appear.It is funny how Daschle accuses Limbaugh of inciting hatred and violence,yet when Alec Baldwin was advocating the killing of Henry Hyde and family you never heard a word from the Demoncrats.Down South we call this shucking and jiving in front of smoking mirrors. Maybe Bob Woodward should write a book about it.

God does he ramble! We'll see how long he stays awake when Kerry, Edwards or Hillary challenge Bush.
These people vote on emotion rather than reason. A pretty face and a good line of BS could put them back to sleep.

Frodo Corleone?
Oh, wait, he said Fredo. Darn, I thought this was going to be interesting.

Remember the way that rabid, self-destructive, paranoid, murder-list Clinton hatred paralyzed the Right....... At least we anti-Clinton folks had a great deal of evidence of illegal activities to back up our views, as well as an impeached, fined and disbarred scoundrel still spreading his poison.
The anti-Bush folks have nothing but emotion and worn-out diatribes from GW's past.

Didn't Maureen Dowd write the same column about a year ago?

Bingo, Whatever criticisms one can lay at the feet of President Bush (and I can think of more than one or two), the fact remains that any comparison between Krinton and Bush will fail because, fundamentally, Krinton IS a criminal.

A rambling piece from a recovering Leftist who is slowly, painfully groping his way to the truth. Cripes! He likes seeing his own words on the page/screen doesn't he. I'd have to agree with your assessment though.

its drowned out by the incoherent rageThere's a fellow calling himself Ed or Ted who keeps plaguing Hannity's radio show with calls like that. It's rather amusing...

Rosenbaum has been writing like this for years. It's an intentional style. A rambling monolouge that is usually very readable and interesting. I would imagine most who started reading this probably finished it to see where it all was going.
He was never a fan of Clinton. He will likely never be a fan of Bush's domestic poilicies, but the whole point of the piece is that on the fight against the 9/11 enemies, Bush deserves support, not the typical knee jerk reaction that he is somehow the devil in all this.

This is a very good article, though it could have been half as long. "Settling family business" is the difference between defeating terrorist movements or succumbing to them.

George W. as Michael Corleone?
I posted this on GlockTalk on 9/3/02. Pardon the vanity, but I like mine better than this guy's take...
With apologies to Mario Puzo...
"Michael said quietly, "Barzini is dead. So is Phillip Tattaglia. I want to square all the Family accounts tonight. So admit what you did."
Hagen and Lampone stared at Michael with astonishment. They were thinking that Michael was not yet the man his father was. Why try to get this traitor to admit guilt? That guilt was already proven as much as such a thing could be proven."
from The Godfather, by Mario Puzo, 1969
So imagine a day in the not too distant future... In the Oval Office, a young man who has assumed the mantle of power formerly held by his father, forced to deal with old family enemies, sits surrounded by trusted advisors. His face is steel as he stares into the eyes of the traitor who has been brought before him.
George W. said quietly, "Saddam is dead. So is Arafat. Assad of Syria and Khamenei of Iran - both dead. I want to square all the Country's accounts tonight. So don't tell me you're innocent. It would be better for you to admit what you did."
Cheney and Rumsfeld stared at George W. with astonishment. They were thinking that W. was not yet the man his father was. Why try to get this traitor to admit guilt? That guilt was already proven as much as such a thing could be proven. The answer was obvious. George W. still was not that confident of his right, still feared being unjust, still worried about that fraction of an uncertainty that only a confession by Bill Clinton could erase.
There was still no answer. W. said almost kindly, "Don't be so frightened. Do you think I'd make a former President stand trial for treason? The American people have suffered your sorry act long enough. No, your punishment will be that you won't be allowed any work within this country. I'm putting you and your wife on a plane to Hollywood to join your phony liberal friends and then I want you to stay there. But don't keep saying you're innocent, don't insult my intelligence and make me angry. Who approached you, Bin Laden or the Chinese?"
William Jefferson Clinton in his anguished hope for life, in the sweet flooding relief that he was not going to stand trial, murmured, "The Chinese."
"Good, good," W. said softly. He beckoned with his right hand. "I want you to leave now. There's a car waiting to take you to the airport."
Clinton went out the door first, the other three men very close to him. It was night now, but the mall as usual was bright with floodlights. A car pulled up. Clinton saw it was his own car. He didn't recognize the driver. There was someone sitting in the back but on the far side. Rumsfeld opened the front door and motioned to Clinton to get in. Michael said, "I'll call Hillary and tell her you're on your way down. Her resignation will be announced after your plane takes off." Clinton got into the car. His silk shirt was soaked with sweat.
The car pulled away, moving swiftly toward the gate. Clinton started to turn his head to see if he knew the man sitting behind him. At that moment, Richard Marcinko, as cunningly and daintly as a little girl slipping a ribbon over the head of a kitten....

This guy does love to read his own excrement, doesn't he?
I remember hundreds of posts seriously questioning whether Bill Clinton was the Antichrist, and postulating that his appearance heralded the Apocalypse. But, then again, Bill Clinton is truly an evil man. George Bush is pretty tepid by comparison.

The question needs to be asked "Where are the Truman Democrats?" That is, where are the Democrats and Liberals who are willing to see evil and know its name - Islamofascism / terrorism - just like Truman did in the late 1940s to Communism?
Where are the Democrats willing to see this war carried through in all its necessary aspects, from Iraq to Al Quaeda to dismantling Hezbollah and the Saudi funders, etc.?
I see too few of them.
But it looks like we found one here.

America was founded by escapees from such theocracies.Actually, the Pilgrims of Plymouth Plantation escaped one theocracy and then set up one of their own in the New World, as did Boston's Puritans.

...and only a disgracefully prejudiced, political and hypocritical Supreme Court gave him the Presidencyas Sandra Day OConnors husband indiscreetly made clear).Can someone explain the reference to an incident or statement involving Sandra Day O'Connor's husband?
To: jalisco555
No, he is not groping for the truth, he is bending it way out of shape. The Godfather analogy is asinine at best and his use of it merely emphasizes that this kook is an unrepentant RAT who will never change. This sick piece of tripe is yet another version of the RAT meltdown.
To: jalisco555
Sorry, but his journey to the truth has become much too incoherant. It's like watching one of those split-personality movies where one side is constantly arguing with the other until the guy's head explodes.
He needs to go to a dark, quiet place and not write anything until he can resolve his conflict.
This "my-mother/my sister" routine is exhausting to read.
