Anyone who wants to understand Bill Moyers has only to listen to the LBJ tapes being broadcast by C-SPAN Radio. Moyers was the ultimate toady.

[Savage Beast]

"If...Democrats look to their pundits and intellectuals for guidance, they'll mostly find" intellectual and moral morons.

Never equate "intellectual" with "intelligent".

As for Democrat "pundits", which is most of them, they have shown the world how profoundly inferior they are, intellectually and morally, to the average person.

Dysinformation such as that attributed to Moyers merely provides history with further examples of this.

In March 1965, four months after the landslide bolstered by suggesting his opponent would blow up the world, President Johnson landed Marines in Vietnam, the first commitment of U.S. ground units. The bumper sticker ran, "They told me if I voted for Goldwater we'd have 500,000 troops in Vietnam."

I remember that ad and the whole campaign against Barry. I was even a spontaneous demonstrator for Barry at the San Francisco Convention in 1964 (boy, how San Francisco has changed!). There may have been a bumper sticker like that somewhere, but what I remember is Bill Buckley's quote in NR sometime in '65 or '66:

They told me if I voted for Goldwater we'd be at war within six months.
I did and we were.

"something cynical has taken its place"

Poor Garrison. He's clever, but he's like Oedipus--in deep denial. The cynicism that he decries is not Republican.

If he were not so blinded by denial, he would see that the Democrat Party is suffused and saturated with cynicism--self-serving, exploitive, manipulative, mendacious, decadent, destructive cynicism.

Did you tune in to the Wellstone Memorial Service, Garrison? How about the Kathleen Willy interview? Ever hear of Ruby Ridge or the Waco incineration? The Buddhist Temple fund raiser? The sale of military secrets to China?

Hey Garrison, ever see a movie called American Beauty? Here's a quote from it:

"Never underestimate the power of denial."

Here's another famous quote:

"There is none so blind as he who will not see."

Poor Garrison. He will not see. Such people are the tools of power-hungry cynics that will lead the world down the Road to Hell.

The recent elections represented only a small tilt toward Republicans, after all, but it looks like an eruption because the volcano has been rumbling ever since Ronald Reagan arrived in 1980.

That is a great line. Also, I read somewhere yesterday that people are turning against the dims because they are "so pro-minority that they are perceived as anti-white". So true.

"Joe Conason, who made his mark by volunteering for the grimy task of defending Bill Clinton"

"Democrats suffer in failing to stand for any idea bigger than drugs for granny"

This man writes well.

"If the liberal class can't offer anything but hysteria and name-calling, the future of their cause looks bleak indeed."

Let's not confuse the liberal class with the Democrats, Robert. There's nothing liberal about them or the decadence known as "Liberalism".

Libertarians and Republicans are the liberal class. It is they, and definitely not the Democrats, who embody liberalism--freedom, freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and open-mindedness.

...."a right-wing assault from all sides".....

Have really we got all sides covered? I hope they think so!

Let's Roll!

[uncbob]

My main fear is that all this hysteria and name calling will trigger some nut job .

It happened after Reagan got elected and we almost lost him

Hope Bush has enough sense to listen to the SS advice more and stay away from large public gatherings for a while till these fools calm down

[ncpastor]

See moral and spiritual bankruptcy and follow its fascinating trail, down, down, down......bye bye Dims.

[jerod]

All this hysterical yapping from the lefty media types seems strangely familiar.

That's because they used the same nonsensical attacks in an attempt to sully the popularity of Ronald Regan. It didn't work then, and it won't work now.

Get used to it Moyers. Bush and the Republicans are going to be around for at least another 6 years, and probably longer than that.

[elenchus]

We cannot rely on Dem stupidity.

If the conservative agenda on taxes and social security is to have a chance of succeeding and if conservative judges are to gain Senate approval, we must preserve a Republican Senate--which is in greater jeopardy than many realize.

For those who understand why the Louisiana election is crucial to retaining the Senate in the face of possible Republican defections by Chafee and McCain, please see the article just posted on:

[RooRoobird14]

Joe Conason, who made his mark by volunteering for the grimy task of defending Bill Clinton, says that when critics call Nancy Pelosi a San Francisco Democrat -- echoing Jean Kirkpatrick's rhetoric on the heady-liberal 1984 Democratic convention there -- they're guilty of "queer-baiting by proxy."

I thought DemoScum were looney, but this is beyond looney. Well, well, it's the old "All Republicans are racists, homophobes and misogynists" rant, isn't it? These crybaby losers really need to get back on the Thorazine ASAP.

Let me guess: Joe Conason is gay, right?

Good post bump.
