The Wrong Party at the Wrong Time Driving the Wrong Bus
The Republican Party ain't much better but at least there are still those that remain that give a damn about this country and are not the power-mongering, jealousy-ridden and easily led by the short-hairs ingrates such has occupied the Democratic Party. Those that are in bed with the Democratic Leadership might as well jump ship...their days are numbered in the Republican Party. And THAT you can take to the bank...with interest.
I have been reading a plethora of blogs today. I have been reading ALL of the once Main Stream Media, now the Lame Stream and Passe Media. I have been reading the way out there in the outer reaches of space left-handed moonbat rags. I have been reading the way out there in the outer reaches of space right-handed freak-show rags. And, as Spree said earlier today in a comment board, "LOLOL, today has been chalk full of idiocy in the news, hasn't it?"
Yes. It has. I even watched CSPAN for a while and had to turn it off...I ran out of air bullets (I'm going to have get some more of that ammo). Fox News was a joke and many other "news" groups were equally staffed by inept concierges of moonbattiness. What has happened to by-God HONESTY? Personal Integrity? Professional Integrity? What is with the sly looks into the cameras and the gaudy showmanship? I don't watch the news to be entertained. Do you?
And why do people park in driveways and drive on parkways? Who decided that?
I left the safety of my Death Chair and strolled into my domain...The Garage. I have a VERY clean garage. It wasn't clean enough. I turned on the "didio" and listened to that evil Talk Radio as I commenced making a mess of my perfectly clean garage...the three cats looking at me like I had lost my marbles. Evidently, I messed up their entire existence but they hung around in earnest curiosity as I guffawed now and again and spit nails the rest of the time.
There are some really odd people in this world and I have decided that most of them stroll the Halls of CONgress roaming around seeking those of whom they may devour. We have the RINO of The Bridge Leading To Nowhere in Alaska getting busted for being a egotistical charlatan right on down to the Freezer Man.
We have the reddest-faced Mutant Murtha the Toad that has just GOT to be messing in his drawers. He reminds me of that British cartoon of forest creatures and the key character was a toad. That is Murtha. A pompous, egotistical baboon. I sure hope he gets what is coming to him and I hope it is a United States Marine that does the deal.
We have Reid The War Is Lost In Spite of the Plethora of Good News Via Once Staunch Critics of The War moron sinking ever lower into obscurity and irrelevance as each day passes. Yet he maintains that ignorance stance and beleaguered stature and thinks he is the cat's meow. I will venture a guess here that if Reid were to sit down in my garage, my three cats would commence to bury him; the turd that he is.
We have a People's Rep Kansas Rep. Nancy Boyda stepping out of a hearing room last week while a retired Army general testified about U.S. progress in Iraq. And I quote;
“There was only so much that you could take until we in fact had to leave the room for a while,” Boyda said after she returned, according to a transcript of the hearing. “So I think I am back and maybe can articulate some things — after so much of the frustration of having to listen to what we listened to.”Yes, Sir. That's my baby. No, Sir. I don't mean maybe.............moron. Boy does SHE have some "splainin" to do, eh? How in the HELL do these people get elected?
Others walked out as well but I shant list them. If you need to know, go find out. I am not in the mood.
We have Hillary saying she wants to develop "re-education camps" for public servants. What is that all about?
We have theoretically very highly educated people running for public office that won't debate on Fox News (even though Big Man donates to Hillary's campaign) but they will blow bubbles in the bathtub to drool over the Kos Kids.
We have John effing Kerry that said in an interview not all that long ago that there were NO killing fields in Cambodia, now being called on the carpet as a material witness by a fellow being charged with crimes against humanity than ran the "torture club" in Cambodia after he and his ilk lied to the American People and thousands upon thousands upon thousands died. There's something to brag about to Queen Heinz, eh? (By the way, there are absolutely ZERO Heinz products allowed in my household...NONE.)
While our allies in the GWOT decry, "Don't go!", we have GOP members wanting to rebrand retreat. WTFO?
Out of ALL the articles I read today...not blog articles...but hired writer's stuff, this one impressed me the mostest.
You'll see why if you read on.
Thanks for sharing.
The Wrong Party
Sen. Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut may officially be an independent after losing his party's nomination to a well-financed anti-war challenger last year, but there's no doubting his heart belongs to the Democratic Party.
In an interview with Washington's Hill magazine this week, Lieberman lamented that after the party's "most important and successful times" of fighting Nazism and communism last century, there is now "a very strong group within the party that I think doesn't take the threat of Islamist terrorism seriously enough."
Clyburn sees a big "problem."Some Democrats in Congress, he noted, oppose a strong stance against the Islamofascists "because anything President Bush is for, they'll be against, and that's wrong."
Just how wrong was illustrated by James Clyburn of South Carolina, the Democrats' chief vote counter in the House. In a Washington Post interview Monday, he envisioned it being "a real big problem for us" if the commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, Gen. David Petraeus, presents Congress with a positive report of progress in September, which seems increasingly likely as sectarian violence drops. House Democrats could be fractured, making it harder to mandate a pullout, Clyburn repined.
When your country's winning a war is "a real big problem" for you, it's time to take stock of exactly what your party stands for.
Lieberman called Democratic leaders "naive in thinking we can somehow defeat this enemy with talk, or they're simply hesitant to use American power, including military power."
Echoing the late Sen. Henry "Scoop" Jackson of Washington, Lieberman pointed to the "great tradition in our history of partisanship generally receding when it comes to foreign policy. But for the moment we've lost that."
Jackson, a legendary figure from a Democratic Party that is no more, liked to say that on national security, "the best politics is no politics." He was chairman of the Democratic National Committee, was considered for running mate by JFK in 1960 and ran for his party's presidential nomination in 1972 and 1976.
His prescience on the war on terror was, in retrospect, nothing short of astonishing. Before 1980, Jackson was warning, "I believe that the ultimate but seldom-stated goal of these terrorists is to destroy the very fabric of democracy. I believe that it is both wrong and foolhardy for any democratic state to consider international terrorism to be someone else's problem."
Like Lieberman today, Jackson became an outcast in his own party. But just as history has vindicated Jackson's uncompromising stance against the Soviet Union, it will prove Lieberman right and his party colleagues misguided on the war on terror.
All the signs are that we have a chance to win in Iraq and prevent large-scale genocide. Yet rather than going all-out to win there, most Democrats in Congress are going all-out to win in Washington against Bush; they're dying to see him blamed for a failed war. And instead of recognizing the historic threat posed by a nuclear-armed Iran, they pretend that talk can be used as an effective weapon against an Islamofascist madman.
The sadness that Lieberman feels for his beloved party gone awry would surely be shared by Scoop Jackson, not to mention Presidents Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman — just as it is by the millions of patriotic Democrats all across this land.
Had enough? Me neither. Read on.
It's all a kerfuffle.
