Are liberal Democrats the new black helicopter loonies?

Are the liberal Democrats becoming the black helicopter loonies of the new millennium?

 

Remember the black helicopter loonies of the 90’s? Linda Thompson, Mark from Michigan and the other crazies, remember how all their stupid ranting seem to stick to conservatives like Velcro? Those bozos created all sorts of credibility problems for anyone who spoke up about issues in the Clinton administration. Any time a conservative criticized the Clinton administration he or she would be dismissed as just another Clinton hating black helicopter loony. This dismissible conservative credibility in the eyes of the American public seemed to embolden Clinton to do what he damn well pleased without fear of retribution from the public, even to the point of lying to Congress and the American people.

 

Is the shoe on the other foot now?

 

Charles Schumer, Maxine Waters and others from the left appear have taken up the mantel of un-credible loonies whose words and actions are destroying any credibility the Democrats have when it comes to criticizing the Republicans and the Bush administration. Their ranting doesn’t seem to change Bush’s popularity ratings, in fact they make it look like the Democratic Party agenda is simply a sour grapes plot to get Bush.

 

Do the Republicans realize this? If they do realize this can they take advantage of the situation or will the innate Republican fear of doing something stupid turn into another round of not doing anything at all?

I think it's considered good manners to flag the people you're criticizing.

"Please show me your papers."

So, Herr Gauleiter, have you adequately requited yourself?

Finish in the sink, if necessary.

Better include the finest GOP member on the planet: Ron Paul.

If supporting the constitution and pointing out that Bush is a dictator as were several presidents before him, then I am a looney and proud of it.

Still think Demigod's a good guy?

He wants to give Osama bin Laden, an admitted foreign mass murderer, the same rights you have.

Notice that Demi was drawn to a thread about "loonies" like a moth to a flame.

Well, we do disagree on Ron Paul. To me, Paul is the Bin Laden of our congress.

I'd rather hide behind the Constitution than from it like the people who aspire to own us.

I must have missed when he had a bunch of people fly planes into buildings full of innocent people.

And you call us the loonies.

It is not my place to give them. God did that. You do believe in God don't you?

To be owned you must demonstrate some value. Unless Sink has seen your coin collection, I dont think your statements here have demonstrated that you're an asset to him.

Government does not "give" rights.

You mean Ron Paul can't sponsor and enact a bill that gives you the right to possess kitty porn?

Let me put up some defense here. I and several others have been called "Govt shill" for a loooong time. We've learned to live with identities, and generally co-exist sorta peacefully; when we don't JimRob takes over. Care to disclose your preference?
