The Left Must Eat Crow!!
Vanity | 03/08/2008 | MAKnight

Posted on 03/08/2003 7:12:39 PM PST by MAKnight

I just wanted to ask if anyone else has thought of this. But in case you're wondering, though it does somewhat concern her, the subject of this post has nothing to do with pleasuring the world reknowned geo-political analyst of sequined T-shirt fame.

Anyway, I've noticed that Leftists never ever get held accountable for anything. It has never happened. Whether it be on domestic or foreign policy issues, the Left never suffers even the mildest inconvenience for its mistakes, no matter how profoundly stupid. Stupid environmental laws pushed for by EnviroLeftists destroyed millions of acres of America's forests last year and yet the very same idiots are still invited to Congress to testify on issues they have proven themselves to be seriously (and dangerously) ignorant about every damn year ... their bleatings are still taken seriously. i.e. Paul Erlich still shows his face and expounds on the environment without any shame or challenge.

On foreign policy, it's even worse. Have you noticed Clinton being forced to at least acknowledge that his extremely stupid North Korea strategy has proven disastrously wrong? No.

Do you honestly believe that if Castro were to die tomorrow and the people of Cuba overthrow the Communist government and start revealing the hell Castro has put them through, there would be any consequence suffered by the Leftist Idiotarians like Barbara Walters, Jimmy Carter, Steven Speilberg, etc. who have spent these last few years having orgies in his honor? No.

Up until his death, Stalin was the Castro of the Left, with groupies all over the West, especially among the 'elite'. But right after his death, it emerged that he really was the genocidal bastard Conservatives always said he was. But were Leftists made to at least acknowledge that they were wrong? No. So they went on to their knees in front of Mao next, Castro, then Ho, then Pot, soon it will be Hugo Chavez, but now (much as they try to deny it) it's Saddam.

Note that these same idiots opposed the deposition of the Taliban, wailing about the thousands of missiles (have you noticed that Leftists, despite having no knowledge of any military matters, talk less of the US war plans, always seem to know the number of missiles that would rain down on Baghdad?) that would kill "The Children(TM)" in Afghanistan, the number of our troops that would be killed in a quagmire and that the people of Afghanistan actually liked living under the Taliban because they said so to BBC reporters (ignore the "minders" aiming AK-47s at their heads). Less than a month later, they were conclusively proven wrong on all these "points". Yet they somehow escaped any and all criticism. Enough so that they actually have the audacity to come back and display their idiocy again in public.

I recognize that this lack of accountability is largely the fault of the Press, being that it's dominated by Leftists and they understandably don't want to shoot themselves in the foot. But they don't control the FreeRepublic, the blogosphere, the internet as a whole, and thank goodness, Fox News.

I want us to help make sure they (the Left) don't escape what's coming to them once Saddam is deposed. I want to make them face, at least once, the consequences of being wrong.

The images of the people of Iraq dancing in the street and the revelations of what really was going on in the travesty that is Saddam's Iraq is going to captivate the world for a while. And you can bet that all the Idiotarian celebrities, Presstitutes and politicians who opposed the war would try to keep a low profile ... some would even try to act like they supported it all along i.e. Barbara Lee stood without any shame to clap for Hamid Karzai during the SOTU (2002) when she opposed the liberation of his country.

Somehow the Left is almost certain of escaping any of the consequences of their stupidity.

I am hoping you guys would help to stop this from happening. Keep their profiles high and remind the world with every new discovery of some atrocity by Saddam that Barbra Streisand, Woody Harrelson, the New York Times, Susan Sarandon, etc. opposed his removal. IOW, each time a new story comes out illustrating Saddam's degeneracy, we should remind everyone that the war was opposed by Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, Martin Sheen, Barbra Streisand, etc.

My fondest hope is that some group would gather some money together, splice a montage of pictures of life before (the victims lying dead in Halabja, newly discovered mass graves, maimed and tortured people, etc.) and after (Iraqis dancing in the street, political prisoners being released from prisons, etc.) the fall of Saddam and then list out some of the prominent useless idiots who opposed ending Saddam's reign of terror (with quotes) and put this montage in ads on national TV.

It may be a bit heavy-handed but I don't care. I want them to, for once, publicly EAT CROW! Maybe next time, they'll know when to shut up ... or at least engage their brains before opening their mouths.

Good Idea, of course we would be accused of being cruel and selfish for gloating.

How about laughter at these celebrities.

Immage: These people did not want us to liberate Iraq: (show images of the celebrities at their no war rallies, sarandon, sheen, garafalo, belafonte) you hear a tape of people laughing.

How about serving them some "spotted owl pate"? Lmao!!! Seriously I'm having an argument on another message board. The crybabies are up in arms, and so I pointed out a few facts to them. One person mentioned our economy being in worse shape under Bush than Clinton. Lo and behold, someone posted an article tonight stating the facts on our economy. Cut and pasted. I've been cutting and pasting for the last hour. Actually I've been bombarding them :)

All this anti war protesting is simply the left's hatred for President Bush. Not one of them squawked when Clinton dropped bombs to cover up his misbehavior. Amazing. Let's revoke their citizenship....

OH that it could only be so

This is the moment I am waiting for. When they yank down Saddam's images everywhere, oh boy!

"....forced to leave the country."

Some of them promised to leave when Bush was elected. When their lips move, dung oozes.

I normally am not the "told you so" type - but this I vow: If and when we take care of bidness vis-a-vis Saddam and Iraq, and the rightness of our cause is irrefutable, I am personally going to get in the face of every "anti-war" acquaintance, be they family, neighbor or co-worker, and force them to confront the utter foolishness of their ways. Their moral weakness, stupidity, and fecklessness have caused great harm to our nation and the world, and have personally given me headaches no aspirin can cure. And they must not be let off the hook for the damage they've done.

Nothing short of the cruel reality of the next American Civil War will suffice t obring these monsters to the justice they deserve. Yuo'd think that the 09/11 attack would have brought most of them to their senses. Didn't take long for them to crawl back out from under their rocks, did it?

Their actions speak for themselves. And rest assured, their Day is coming. Those of us who have the training and the skills, but are too old for the overseas callup are still more than capable and more than willing to deal with our domestic enemies.

What we really need is for people like Hannity and Rush to start a 'Holding the Left Accountable' campaign. They can start Teddy Kennedy.

Since the majority of these idiots are shame-dead, it's time to bring back the venerable practice of tarring and feathering. Shooting's too good for most of them.

I noticed on FOX tonight that many of the left guests were claiming that they know that Saddam is evil and that he needs to be disarmed, but that Bush is going to be responsible for the "rush to war", that he could have given Saddam some more time and maybe we wouldn't have had to go to war at all.

So you see they are all ready trying to give themselves an out.

No argument here. Though I should point out that there is a double-standard in play when the "intellectual elite" and the "mainstream press" judge the mistakes of the Left and the mistakes of the Right.

When the Left screws up, they are forgiven because they had professed "good intentions." So they are not judged by their actions or outcomes, but the supposedly "noble" ideals they had in their hearts.

When the Right screws up, they are NOT forgiven because it doesn't matter to those doing the judging what their intentions were. They are judged solely on the perceptions of their accusers. This has played out when Lott praised Strom Thurmond's platform (even though he was referring only to Thurmond's platform on increased Defense), and when Mayor Anthony William's aide was forced to resign after he used the word "niggardly," thus causing an outcry among the ignorant Leftists.

Thus, until we consistently and continually expose and aggressively seek to annihilate this double-standard, we may as well get used to watching the Left (literally) get away with murder.
