Are Mexicans Hispanics? It seems to me that Bush has been pretty darn (overly)-compliant to those folks over the past years, hardly a can of Raid.
On these looney lefty remarks, I am constantly both amazed and annoyed, and somewhat thankful at the same time for these outrageous "perspectives" from the lamentable lefties. It is true, I believe, that the constant torrent of their absurd and offensive spewing (they left out Linda Round-stadt - "It's like Germany, before Hitler took over. The economy was bad and people felt kicked around. They looked for a scapegoat. Now we've got a new bunch of Hitlers." ) ended up helping to award George Bush the election.
I guess we may want to wish they remain just as bothered, unhinged, and unbalanced in 2008.
Hawkeye Pierce had a great line that describes the likes of Cameron, Eve, Julia (Roberts), Janene (Garofolo), et al; While putting the make on a nurse in the supply tent, the nurse made a comment about "gooks". Hawkeye, offended at the remark, said something to the effect of, "You know, you're really built, Lt. I'd like to explore every inch of your body and when I get done, start over again. But something happened to your mind that I can't begin to understand. The wires must have gotten crossed. I don't think I want to be your friend."
He gets up and leaves the nurse alone in the supply tent, then returns a moment later. "I forgot my wine," he said, taking the remains of the bottle of wine and leaving again.
That's how I think of a lot of these female Hollyweird "intellectuals". A lot of them are put together really nice, but something happened to their minds. The wires must have gotten crossed. And I don't want to be their friend . . . . or a fan . . . . . or someone who spends his money to support their lavish lifestyle.
They are entitled to their opinions and I encourage them to offer it - but I don't have to pay for the privilege of listening to, or seeing, whatever garbage and hate spews from their miswired brains. They can do that on their own dime.
Do Maddy and Terrayzah really know where W is hiding Osama - and exactly what is he waiting for to reveal his "capture?"
Your example illustrates one of the Left's real defects--hypocrisy. Hawkeye, offended, proceeds to offend in very much the same way.
I love a good movie, but I will no longer pay to see the work of this self-styled think tank. Not just because it is undermining America, but because I now cannot watch without becoming physically ill.
Well Cameron, I thought because of Bill Clinton we must just look the other way when rape occurs.
Bump
These loony lefties who have never served their country should STFU. Any human being with a functioning brain never listens to these (POE) They are celebrities in their own delusional minds. I think cameron diaz has the porcupine disease. Legizumo should have stayed playing his absorbed role as Johnny( The Stupe) in the movie, Hanging With The Homeboys. Thank you for telling it like it is about these so called (saleliberalties commies).
Cameron Diaz said that if you think rape should be legal, you should not vote on November 2.... Over the Top |
It's a crying shame Ms. Diaz and the rest of that silly, self-styled Hollywood think tank didn't adhere to this rape rule on November 3, 1992. |
Sylvia Plath he placebo effect immediately came to mind as I listened to Shelby Steele, a research fellow at the Hoover Institution,debunk the following pernicious spin intended to save clinton. To wit: A proven felon and utter reprobate can remain president; clinton can be a failed human being but a good president. The error in these statements arises, says Steele, from the belief that virtuousness is separate from personal responsibility so that one's virtuousness as an individual is determined by one's political positions on issues rather than on whether or not in one's personal life there is a consistency and a responsibility. Steele's contention is that this compartmentalization, rather than being the amazing advantage the clintons would have us believe, in fact, spills toxicity into, corrupts, the culture. If mere identification with good policies is what makes one virtuous then those policies become, what Steele calls, iconographic, that is to say they just represent virtuousness. They don't necessarily do virtuous things. If clinton's semantic parsing strips meaning from our words, clinton's iconographic policies strip meaning from our society, systematically deconstructing our society as a democracy. . . I would take Shelby Steele's thesis one step further. I maintain that iconographic policy functions like a placebo, producing a real, physiological and social effects. The placebo effect is, after all, the brain's triumph over reality. Expectation alone can produce powerful physiological results. The placebo effect was, at one time, an evolutionary advantage: act now, think later bill clinton is the paradigmatic Placebo President. Placebo is Latin for "I shall please." And please he does doling out sham treatments, iconographs, with abandon. To please, to placate, to numb, to deflect. Ultimately to showcase his imagined virtue. Or to confute his genuine vice. clinton will dispense sugar pills (or bombs) at the drop of a high-heeled shoe... or at the hint of high treason... clinton's charlatanry mimics that of primitive medicine. Through the 1940s, doctors had little effective medicine to offer so they deliberately attempted to induce the placebo response. The efficaciousness of today's medicines does not diminish the power of the placebo. A recent review of placebo-controlled studies found that placebos and genuine treatments are often equally effective. If you expect to get better, you will. Which brings me back to the original question: Can clinton be a failed human being but a good president? Clearly he cannot. These two propositions are mutually exclusive. clinton's fundamental failure is a complete lack of integrity. He has violated his covenant with the American people. Because clinton has destroyed his moral authority as a leader, he can no longer function even as a quack; the placebo effect is gone. And so the Placebo President must now go, too. They say that the clear focus of American policy was to discourage the state sponsorship of terrorism. So persuading Khartoum to expel Bin Laden was in itself counted as a clear victory. The administration was "delighted". Bin Laden took off from Khartoum on May 18 in a chartered C-130 plane with 150 of his followers, including his wives. He was bound for Jalalabad in eastern Afghanistan. On the way the plane refuelled in the Gulf state of Qatar, which has friendly relations with Washington, but he was allowed to proceed unhindered. Barely a month later, on June 25, a 5,000lb truck bomb ripped apart the front of Khobar Towers, a US military housing complex in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. The explosion killed 19 American servicemen. Bin Laden was immediately suspected... bill clinton, State of Union Speech, January 27, 2000 Among the comments clinton made in presence of Secret Service agents: After the Monica Lewinsky story broke, however, clinton toned down his rhetoric and behavior in front of his Secret Service agents, but those who guarded the president say enough of them saw and heard things which could be damaging to clinton. Turnover In clinton's Secret Service Detail Why does the press continue to ignore the Juanita Broaddrick story? Richard Gere stunned fellow liberals Monday by suggesting that President Bush is doing a better job of fighting AIDS than President Bill Clinton did. Introduced by Sharon Stone at a fund-raiser at Cipriani 42nd Street for the American Foundation for AIDS Research, the "Chicago" star hailed Bush for his State of the Union proposal to contribute $15 billion toward the AIDS battle in Africa and the Caribbean. Gere then addressed the track record of Bush's predecessor in the White House. "I'm sorry, Sen. [Hillary] Clinton, but your husband did nothing about AIDS for eight years," Gere said.

you beat me to the punch... line. ;)
That was the first thing I thought of when Ms. Diaz spoke as a blonde.

To those intent on talking about this election cycle and insecticides I say, "BLACK FLAG EN PASSANT." Bush has snared the terrorists in Iraq and the pro-islamofascist-terrorist radical chics here in America. The roaches have checked in, and they won't be checking out. |
