Just cause they have more money doesn't make them smart.
Remember the tulip at one time was the national currency of Holland.

Good heavens what an atrocious column! Thanks for the post. I need to know which morons to avoid (and to hold accountable when this all shakes out). Something tells me that there will be a nice whitewash once the tortured people of Iraq get to relate their experiences.

yet no one complains when the president says Iraq was responsible for 9/11. Does anyone remember al-Qaida? No one complains because any sensible human knows there is a connection.

Sean Penn, who seems to have replaced Barbra Streisand as the most hated liberal on talk radio, No but maybe a close second.. Barbra is still at the top of the list..

The best way to not have enemies is to get rid of them, by force if necesary!

Laura Billings can be reached at ... With the delusions needed to write that creamy nonsense, I doubt Laura Billings can be reached by any method. I can't believe what passes for a publishable article these days.

rather than a war that will surely lead to the deaths of thousands of innocent Iraqis Maybe I'm out of line here, but don't the Iraqis bear some responsibility here. I mean, they know what kind of guy Saddam is. Sometimes you have got to get some guts and remove evil dictators from power (you know, the tree of liberty is nourished by the blood of tyrants). If you fail to do so, you open yourself up for the potential of a major war in your backyard.

Avoid is correct. Some of these people, if not most, have problems with drugs, alcohol and vilonce. These are the same atributes they try to sell our kids on TV.
They may have face time on TV but for the most part they represent the bottom crawlers in our society.

I remember putting a "Nixon" sticker on my Dad's car bumper during the election of 1960 (Nixon vs Kennedy). Though my Dad was a Republican, he was also a business man and he ordered me to take the sticker off with these words of wisdom:
"Buck", my customers are also Democrats, so are some of the people that work for me. I don't want to loose a sale to a Democrat or make a man angry that works for me. WE keep our politics at home and in the voting booth.
The people in H'Wood have taken their politics public and have exposed themselves to the scorn of some of their customers.

The author is willfully ignorant, and is himself worth little more than a dismissal.
His comment on "limousine liberals" shows his ignorance, because he obviously does not know how the term is defined.

The question I have is, why do we so easily dismiss the opinions of famous people, as if they're nothing but "limousine liberals"?Looks like Ms. Billings has some comprehension issues, doesn't it?

"noted geopolitical strategist who probably thinks Saddam Hussein is a New York City cabdriver." Sums it up for the lot of them.

A minnesota BUMP. The Pioneer Press is usually a little less blatant in it's "leftist" drivel than its competitor the "Red Star & Sickle"
Shame on the PP for this article.
Laura Billings sounds about as clueless as they come.
