What do the Democrats have to do to get really into trouble?

Buggers seem to get away with bloody everything.

Were's Chuck Schumer on all this?

Life imitates Scrappleface.

Okay, I think it's high time for me to drop my Democrat registration.

Cue Cuckoo Clock wav file. :)

These guys are BANANAS!

If we went to war for oil, how come I'm paying $2.37 a gallon for gas?

This is beyond unhinged. They're playing make-believe now? Unfreakinbelievable.

It's fitting that they were down in the basement.

McGovern was an "intelligence" analyst and all he came up with was jooos made us do it. PS, I did my darndest to unseat moonbat Jim Moran of Northern Jihadi Virginia Congression District 8 next to our Nation's Capital.

Uh, I think PEST is getting out of hand. They are now reduced to play acting their fantasies. The scariest thing is that they don't see how terribly crazy their actions are.

Wait a minute...

If Bush supposedly KNEW that Iraq had no WMDs, then why would Bush think it was necessary to go to war to PROTECT ISRAEL FROM SADDAM?!?

What sort of danger would Israel be in if Saddam didn't have WMDs?

The Dems/Liberals stories are starting to TRIP OVER EACH OTHER.

While it's undeniable that the Democrats are in deep trouble, I don't see the Republicans doing much to counter this sort of moonbatery.

These types of ravings can, and do, swing popular sentiment if left unchallenged.

Behold the self-destruction of the Democratic Party!

How much money did this cost?

Did they have a big hook nosed puppet with his hand up the back of a smaller W puppet?

#3 cole slaw -- "Were's Chuck Schumer on all this?"

Probably in the back room feverishly drafting the Articles of Impeachment.

Matters were even worse at Democratic headquarters, where the C-SPAN feed ended after just an hour, causing the activists to groan and one to shout “Conspiracy!”

This is their life: conspiracy theories.

Is this what we are paying these arseholes to do? The taxpayer should be reimbursed their salaries for the time they wasted on this.

Rep. James P. Moran Jr. (D-Va.), who prompted the question by wondering whether the true war motive was Iraq’s threat to Israel, thanked McGovern for his “candid answer.”

Candid answer. Is that the newspeak for accepting idiocy, anti-semitism, and providing aid and comfort to the enemy?

Did they have a big hook nosed puppet with his hand up the back of a smaller W puppet?

Yah. Exactly. Moving to Israel is starting to sound more and more like a good idea all the time. It's really really 1939 all over again. Actually I'd put it more at ... ohhh, roughly 35.

#11 rightasrain

Acute observation.

Funny how the left can't make it.

Don't think for a minute that, should this array of nuts and fruitcakes that was once the Democratic party somehow win the midterms, they won't try to make their fantasy impeachment into reality.

Then what happens?

Whew - sorry youse'all, hadda get some work done and, say, how do all those "activists" get so much time to engage in that tomfoolery, anyway?

You Democrats go play in that room over there while the adults take care of the nations business. Run along now.

Doesn't this all smack of Maoist China and Stalinist USSR?

These people live in a dream world.

I will NEVER come back to the Democratic party!

This is what they have to do to get attention.
Demographics are working against them.
The Red States will most likely remain the Red States.
The Republicans have been in charge of the geremandering of the various legislative districts for the last decade, which means continued control of the House of Representatives.
More Red States mean that it is more likely for there to be more Republican Senators.
Not a good picture for the LLL. More of the Democratic Representatives come from "safe" areas or States so they can reflect the moonbats that elected them.
But are the moonbats in charge of the country as a whole? Hell no. Can they piss us off.

Oh My G-d!

Literally.

Democrats: The party of disaffected 13-year-olds

I'd call to protest but words fail me. If they don't have an inkling of why their behavior might be a problem -- i.e. no shame -- then what can I say to clue them in? Same with Durbin. No clue, no shame.

Ok, what have they been smoking and why aren't they sharing?

They will become worse. All that they have left at this point is derangement and frustration. Clearly they don't have any constructive ideas left.

I had CSPAN on late last night and had this on in the background while working. It didn't register that this was a whole charade. I remember thinking for a fleeting moment that the committe meeting looked a little sparse and strange, like it was held in someone's garage. The reasons for this did not occur to me at the time. It was definitely a big anti-bush hate fest and made to appear like an actual Congressional hearing with all sorts of witnesses testifying about how bush lied and people died.

Thanks to the blogs for putting this in perspective.

Are these people nuts?

Is that a trick question?

There's no anti-Semitism there!

It's not time for the physical violence against Jews (in America) yet, so I dialed down the crisis-meter a little. In Europe it's probably more like mid-1940. And it doesn't have to take an entire year to advance my internal 1930s-o-meter.
This is all rough guesstimates based on my rough recollections of what happened when.

I think we also need to remind them to not run with sissors, stop placing plastic bags over their heads, stop sniffing glue, and that repeatedly pounding their heads against the wall will not cure their frustrations.

And why was C-SPAN covering this?

When your conspiracy theories are the same as that of the terrorists, you know your fucked.

By the way, ZAWAHIRI IS BACK, basically making the same claims about Jew/America/Crusader world domination as the Democrats.

Great job Donks! You just got a new party chairman!

I watched this so-called "hearing" yesterday, and mostly I was struck by the complicit dishonesty of our so-called representatives. They completely ignored all evidence which happens to conflict with the premise of the "Downing Street Memo", such as this other memo reported in the New York Times:

Prewar British Memo Says War Decision Wasn't Made

Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't these men and women actually sworn to uphold the integrity of the Congress? They failed to do so by not showing even a mild interest in getting to the actual truth.

It was really a disgrace. In all my years of being a C-Span junkie, I've never seen such a willful attempt to mislead the American public. In the end I was just glad and proud that my congresswoman didn't show up.

Mr. Conyers seems like a very nice man, but he's trying to run some kind of a scam and should apologize for his attempts to mislead.

If we went to war for oil, why are we doing this?

[Link: renewableenergyaccess.com...]

At any given time on DU there are a bunch of threads on how the impeachment will happen, what will happen after impeachment, how impeachment will lead to a Democrat as President, etc. They are entirely, completely unhinged (and that includes a (un)healthy portion of the "leadership").

Run along Rosh

PICK your side

Here's a letter by conyers to the WaPo complaining about milbanks' report. From comments section of RWN (sorry can't find link to actual letter)

Mr. Michael Abramowitz, National Editor
Mr. Michael Getler, Ombudsman
Mr. Dana Milbank
The Washington Post
1150 15th Street, NW
Washington, D.C. 20071

Dear Sirs:

I write to express my profound disappointment with Dana Milbank's June 17 report, "Democrats Play House to Rally Against the War," which purports to describe a Democratic hearing I chaired in the Capitol yesterday. In sum, the piece cherry-picks some facts, manufactures others out of whole cloth, and does a disservice to some 30 members of Congress who persevered under difficult circumstances, not of our own making, to examine a very serious subject: whether the American people were deliberately misled in the lead up to war. The fact that this was the Post's only coverage of this event makes the journalistic shortcomings in this piece even more egregious.

In an inaccurate piece of reporting that typifies the article, Milbank implies that one of the obstacles the Members in the meeting have is that "only one" member has mentioned the Downing Street Minutes on the floor of either the House or Senate. This is not only incorrect but misleading. In fact, just yesterday, the Senate Democratic Leader, Harry Reid, mentioned it on the Senate floor. Senator Boxer talked at some length about it at the recent confirmation hearing for the Ambassador to Iraq. The House Democratic Leader, Nancy Pelosi, recently signed on to my letter, along with 121 other Democrats asking for answers about the memo. This information is not difficult to find either. For example, the Reid speech was the subject of an AP wire service report posted on the Washington Post website with the headline "Democrats Cite Downing Street Memo in Bolton Fight". Other similar mistakes, mischaracterizations and cheap shots are littered throughout the article.

The article begins with an especially mean and nasty tone, claiming that House Democrats "pretended" a small conference was the Judiciary Committee hearing room and deriding the decor of the room. Milbank fails to share with his readers one essential fact: the reason the hearing was held in that room, an important piece of context. Despite the fact that a number of other suitable rooms were available in the Capitol and House office buildings, Republicans declined my request for each and every one of them. Milbank could have written about the perseverance of many of my colleagues in the face of such adverse circumstances, but declined to do so. Milbank also ignores the critical fact picked up by the AP, CNN and other newsletters that at the very moment the hearing was scheduled to begin, the Republican Leadership scheduled an almost unprecedented number of 11 consecutive floor votes, making it next to impossible for most Members to participate in the first hour and one half of the hearing.

In what can only be described as a deliberate effort to discredit the entire hearing, Milbank quotes one of the witnesses as making an anti-semitic assertion and further describes anti-semitic literature that was being handed out in the overflow room for the event. First, let me be clear: I consider myself to be friend and supporter of Israel and there were a number of other staunchly pro-Israel members who were in attendance at the hearing. I do not agree with, support, or condone any comments asserting Israeli control over U.S. policy, and I find any allegation that Israel is trying to dominate the world or had anything to do with the September 11 tragedy disgusting and offensive.
cont next post

John Conyers has gone past pathetic to completely certifiable. Are we really going to let people like this serve in Congress. The moonbat quotient in Congress has to be past meltdown. People WAKE UP... these are the people that are elected to RUN OUR COUNTRY!

Really, I wouldn't vote for a Democrat now unless I was dead and buried in Chicago. This basement make-believe is unbelieveable. Zell Miller's description as a once-great party was an understatement. It is an unhinged party now in implosion.

Quote from new Zawahiri video courtesy of Al Jizzeera:

The removal of the Crusader and Jewish invaders won't occur by peaceful demonstrations," he said in a brief clip shown on the pan-Arab network. "Reform and expelling the invaders from the countries of Islam won't happen except through fighting for God's sake."

Is that what they call blowing yourself up? "Fighting"? Bwhahahahahahahaha!

contd.

That said, to give such emphasis to 100 seconds of a 3 hour and five minute hearing that included the powerful and sad testimony (hardly mentioned by Milbank) of a woman who lost her son in the Iraq war and now feels lied to as a result of the Downing Street Minutes, is incredibly misleading. Many, many different pamphlets were being passed out at the overflow room, including pamphlets about getting out of the Iraq war and anti-Central American Free Trade Agreement, and it is puzzling why Milbank saw fit to only mention the one he did.

In a typically derisive and uninformed passage, Milbank makes much of other lawmakers calling me "Mr. Chairman" and says I liked it so much that I used "chairmanly phrases." Milbank may not know that I was the Chairman of the House Government Operations Committee from 1988 to 1994. By protocol and tradition in the House, once you have been a Chairman you are always referred to as such. Thus, there was nothing unusual about my being referred to as Mr. Chairman.

To administer his coup-de-grace, Milbank literally makes up another cheap shot that I "was having so much fun that [I] ignored aides' entreaties to end the session." This did not occur. None of my aides offered entreaties to end the session and I have no idea where Milbank gets that information. The hearing certainly ran longer than expected, but that was because so many Members of Congress persevered under very difficult circumstances to attend, and I thought - given that - the least I could do was allow them to say their piece. That is called courtesy, not "fun."

By the way, the "Downing Street Memo" is actually the minutes of a British cabinet meeting. In the meeting, British officials - having just met with their American counterparts - describe their discussions with such counterparts. I mention this because that basic piece of context, a simple description of the memo, is found nowhere in Milbank's article.

The fact that I and my fellow Democrats had to stuff a hearing into a room the size of a large closet to hold a hearing on an important issue shouldn't make us the object of ridicule. In my opinion, the ridicule should be placed in two places: first, at the feet of Republicans who are so afraid to discuss ideas and facts that they try to sabotage our efforts to do so; and second, on Dana Milbank and the Washington Post, who do not feel the need to give serious coverage on a serious hearing about a serious matter-whether more than 1700 Americans have died because of a deliberate lie. Milbank may disagree, but the Post certainly owed its readers some coverage of that viewpoint.

Sincerely,

John Conyers, Jr.

You think Israel isn't fighting on America's side, keepandbear?

This is so sick. If this is on tape, it should be available to all and played in the MSM (yeah, right) so all can see just who these fools are.

Conyers, have you lost your mind?

Conyers to Millbank, short version: how dare you point out we have no clothes on.

Next time they go down to the basement somebody LOCK THE FREAKING DOOR.

What no Cynthia McKinney?

This from the people who want to run this country?. This should be played on every major media source to illustrate what happens (and what would happen) when you let your friends vote for democrats

“Israel is not allowed to be brought up in polite conversation,” McGovern said. “The last time I did this, the previous director of Central Intelligence called me anti-Semitic.”

Maybe because, as he just proved, he is an anti-semite.

Rep. James P. Moran Jr. (D-Va.), who prompted the question by wondering whether the true war motive was Iraq’s threat to Israel, thanked McGovern for his “candid answer.”

Nice to see that Jim "If it were not for the strong support of the Jewish community for this war with Iraq, we would not be doing this ... [t]he leaders of the Jewish community are influential enough that they could change the direction of where this is going, and I think they should" Moran hasn't learned a thing.

Prick.

Was Moran one of the Three Stooges that went to Baghdad before the war, to shine Saddam's nob?

...Democrats playing "house"...

What a joke!

#46 Beam:

Mr. Conyers may seem like a very nice man but he's not. In the run up to the election, he and Charlie Rangel put forth a proposal that the draft be brought back. It was all done by them on the q.t. and then when the Democrats started saying there was a rumor the draft was coming back and implying it was at Republican instigation, their proposal was at the root of the claim. No one bothered to admit that it was two Democrats who'd proposed the Bill. That' how politics works; smear the other guy with something you've done yourself!

He's a very wily corrupt old fox. Maybe evil is too harsh a word but 'corrupt' and extremely 'biased' would be more fitting.

In Europe it's probably more like mid-1940.

Careful with the hyperbole. By that time, even though it was pre-Wannsee, the Einsatzgruppen had already killed about a million Jews. Anti-semitism in Europe is bad now, but let's keep a sense of proportion.

At what point does a mock "impeachment" hearing stop being playacting and become actual insurrection?

More fodder for talk radio.

Keep it up Dems. Remember the Whigs? The Know-Nothings?

Milbanks thought what he was witnessing was ludicrous, and it was. What a shock to the system for the Democrats!

Please note that, in addition, it was in an opinion column, Milbanks' "Washington Sketch." This was not in the news section.

Please, Please keep explaining just who you are and what you stand for, please.

WTF?!

I just don't know what to say. I was trying to think of some pithy bon mot, but this development has just subverted my sensibilities--literally and figuratively.

Fuck the LLL. And I'm talking Greek-style.

Sigh. My congress person Jim Moran strikes again. Can't we please get rid of him? Or trade him- any takers?

The deranged Dhimmicrats sing:

We say we want a revolution,
Well you know,
We are want to change the world.
We're acting really rootin' tootin'
Well you know,
We all need to change the world.
So if at the moment it still seems so out of reach,
All we can do is to stand up and Shout "IMPEACH".
And ya know it makes us feel
Alright.
And you know it makes it feel
Upright...

Thanks for the cut and paste job on Conyers' letter. Seems like a very hasty damage control job is now underway by the DEMS before this one gets too far.

#69 Occasional Reader

let's keep a sense of proportion

Well, I did say this was my rough guesstimate. I realize a million people have not fallen victim to Eurabia yet. Clearly the 1930s aren't going to repeat themselves step-by-step.
But the open anti-semitism displayed by McGovern and "appreciated" instead of denounced by Moran makes one remember that those who don't learn from history are condemned to repeat it.

#58

And turn off the lights.

Yes I know Israel is fighting on Americas side.

As much as our respective national securities will allow( as perceived by our respective leaders}

If I got to choose Israel would have a free hand in the ME with all the material and Monies she needed to solve the problem.

Israel is doing things now I never thought they would do. giving op land for nothing other than empty promises. That all you'll ever get out of the present crop of muslim leaders as they are all lead by the nose by their religion.

In my opinion Israel should tell US the US to FO and take care of business. We'd make a bunch of noise but we would get on board. I do not believe, as some do here, that Bush is anti-Semitic. He would get behind israel if they put their foot down but if their gonna play politics he has to too.

If you live in Israel then ignore my statement. It doesn't apply. If you live here, then get behind and push or get out with the other dead weight (liberals DNC Greenies etc) and we'll move on.

like I sasdi my statements only apply to an American, not someone from another country

#76 Jim in Virginia

Sigh. My congress person Jim Moran strikes again. Can't we please get rid of him? Or trade him- any takers?

Illinois will trade you for Durbin of you throw in a goat and 2 chickens.

BTW, the NY Times and the BBC also covered this same story, but they left out any mention of the Jew/Israel baiting angle.

Milbanks deserves credit for highlighting the repeated nutiness of Moran and his buddy McGovern, as well as the even nuttier "activists" handing out the Raimondo-esque pamphlets re: Israel and 9/11.

Jeebus.

This is bad for people who voted Bush/Republican last election. The Democrats are getting so loony that they might completely implode as a viable party. If that happens, the Reps. won't have any competition, and God knows, the current bunch in power is definitely fallible.

I voted for Bush, but I don't like about half of his decisions in this war. Resolve to fight the war? Yes. How he's fighting the war? Not so much. Without someone to provide a viable alternative, the Reps. have no one to be accountable to. When the Dems. fail, it really does seem to be bad for the country.

That all being said. The guys in the article are creeps and wackos and should be voted out of office, as should everyone who agrees with them.

“Israel is not allowed to be brought up in polite conversation,” McGovern said. “The last time I did this, the previous director of Central Intelligence called me anti-Semitic.”

Rep. James P. Moran Jr. (D-Va.), who prompted the question by wondering whether the true war motive was Iraq’s threat to Israel, thanked McGovern for his “candid answer.”

How fitting that Rep. James P. Moran Jr should be asking the question. So when does David Duke get to testify?

This is astonishing and it went on for 3.5 hours? This is the equivalent of moonbat street theatre only it's coming from real elected members of Congress. Conyers seemed put out that the scheduled floor votes, the real work of adults in Congress, keep many Democrats from being on hand to participate in the playacting.

What's next, Dick Durbin going to use the basement to put our troops on mock trial in a production of "Guantanamo: The Unfinished Work of Nuremburg"?

Ah yes the "double blame game" with Israel

The "double blame game" is pretty much what the LLL has been using as its main ammunition. This is also used agaisnt the US but more common with Israel.

VDH missed this example in his latest masterpiece about the modern left and the connection between the jihadists. The same words coming out of the pali's mouth is identical to this.

The way it works is by blaming Israel for two contradricting things. The LLL and Jihadists now blame Israel for being a wuss/massive weakling, who hides behind the purse strings of the 'mommy' (the US). Hamas and the Arab states chest beat about how Israel can be easily defeated by doing a simple puff, less effort than blowing out the candles on a birthday cake. The LLL say the same thing, in that Israel only continues to exists because of American protection and presence in the middle east. Never mind the previous 50 of history.

Then when the LLL/arab states get over confident they go on a rampage. The LLL go on a propaganda streak, the arab states go to war (I don't see the LLL denouncing Egyptian college students calls for war with Israel). Then when this rampage is summarily destroyed by Israel either by the truth or the IDF, they go on and complain about how Israel is the neighborhood bully. How it's military is far to vast and powerful and that the IDF must be stop being so advanced, and Israeli's who argue back are now guilty of the "new anti-semitism" (now all of a sudden the arabs remember they are semites and share some bond with the people of Israel, too bad they forgot about that during the Mufti's rule during WWII or pretty much the past 50 years). And this excluding the historical precedent that the term "anti-semite" has always meant anti-Jew.

Now with the double game in play, the left and arabs constantly see-saw between arguements. Just wait, in a few hours (or if their slow a few days) they'll go back to Israel being the bully.

"Democrats Play House"

--as in, "pretend they have a majority."

The Dhimmicrats are doomed to extinction. They could win easily in '08 by reviving the Truman/Rayburn spirit and hitting the Repubs hard on illegal immigration and Saudi Arabia. That would require jettisoning a big part fo their multi-cult and media culture baggage, which they would literally die than do even if they were capable of recognizing the need.

Instead, they will simply shout their moth-eaten 60s media-mantra that much louder.
They are the political arm of the institutional media culture, just as New Age is the official religion, and Islamic terrorists are the special ops force.

The only way to describe this event is: public psychological mass masturbation by people filled with nothing but a crippling irrational hatred.

That is exactly right. The Left has established the perfectly non-falsifiable conspiracy web. Eacxh possible outcome, no matter how divergent or contradictory to each other, only serve to confirm at least some aspects of the theory. And if you disagree with their propositions and/or present facts against them, you are automatically part of the conspiracy and trying to cover it up, or else a dupe for those who "run the show".

You know, the Dimocrats literally ARE UFO people.

"Who here thinks Bush is anti-semitic?"

I don't but I can't say the same for his daddy and the crew his daddy hangs around with (i.e, James "Fuc* the Jews" Baker).

However, what is very very clear at this point in American politics is that, outside of country club anti-semitism, the real madness is firmly on the left.

Yeah, I'd say Ewwurope is more like it was in 1928

"Looking around today, we find ourselves in a nightmare house where the clocks all stopped on the eve of an unthinkable disaster. It is 1928 all over again."

This is scary.

And to think it was even televised!

Every day, I'm beginning to think moving to Israel is the only choice we Jews have.

I love the way the pretend it was a committee hearing. The MSM was trying to spin it the same way. They also, like to refer to Conyers as “Ranking Democrat on the committee.” Which just means he is the senior member of the minority? However, the way they say it you would think he is the chairman.

All this really was is a meeting of the “Congressional Anti-Semite Caucus.”

OMG! I want to see the video! Who has the freakin' video! It must be seen!

There's no way I can be the first person on a 70+ thread to say ALL LIBERALS ARE TRAITORS!

Somebody should have turned the air conditioning to eleven.

WTF? I was certain that was an Iowahawk parody. I started to doubt because it wasn't as funny as Iowahawk.

From #50 above

Despite the fact that a number of other suitable rooms were available in the Capitol and House office buildings, Republicans declined my request for each and every one of them... ... Milbank also ignores the critical fact picked up by the AP, CNN and other newsletters that at the very moment the hearing was scheduled to begin, the Republican Leadership scheduled an almost unprecedented number of 11 consecutive floor votes, making it next to impossible for most Members to participate in the first hour and one half of the hearing.

That's too great if it true (paranoia runs deep here). It must have been hilarious to watch these idiots running back and forth to the chamber every 15 minutes to vote on vital issues as "National Hummingbird Spleen Month". It just adds to the utter decrepitute and irrelevance that is now the democratic party.

After the mock impeachment they plan a mock inauguration for Kerry (who of course elbows his way to the head of the line) followed by a mock government and a mock national health plan and a mock pullout of troops from Iraq with a faux peace.

I'm looking forward to the 2006 elections. The LLLs are expecting to gain back the Senate and then try to impeach Bush, count on it. They're going to be in for a big surprise when the Republicans no longer need to worry about filibusters as they'll have 60 seats in the Senate instead.

It was on C-Span or C-Span 2 last night and will be repeated tonight and sometime on Sunday. If you can stand it, pop a big bowl of corn, open a cold one, and watch the dems continue their melt down.

I'm truly distressed by this. It's not healthy for a republic to have only one legitimate political party. Already the spending is out of control and unchecked. If the Democrat Party continues to flush itself down a toilet (like a Koran?) then there will never be a move towards smaller government, or an overhaul of our immigration policy, or etc...

#162 alegrias

Usually, Dana Milbank is reliably liberal, though not always a moonbat. This time, though, he ripped the Dems up one side and down the other.

Milbank is read by lots of people in Washington. If he said the Conyers & Co. were ludicrous and tin-foil hat-wearing loons, they really, really were.

This may have been posted BUT, can we have mock beheadings?

Oh ahhh, du, kos, other leftist freaks...'mock' is the key word...just like mock impeachment...got it leftist asshats?

can we question their sanity now?

While it's undeniable that the Democrats are in deep trouble, I don't see the Republicans doing much to counter this sort of moonbatery.

Exactly. For example--instead of taking advantage of the numbers, Republicans lamely "negotiated" rather than insisting on their judicial nominees getting an up or down vote.

Hey if they are going to impeach Bush, they should atleast find a crime. How about, the borders Bush refuses to enforce. Bush has one job, to enforce the laws of the land. I love the guy, and that's an issue that they could actually motivate some of both sides on...

Oh, wait, they'd have to actually be RATIONAL to try something like that.

LOL OL LOLOL ROFLOL

Bedlam!

Conyers is a shill for the "swimmer" Kennedy and Monsieur Skerry.

He was a speaker at the Vietnam Veterans against the War in DC back in 1971 along with Kerry and Jane "the traitor" Fonda.

This side of Conyers needs to be exposed. His loony and sedetious (sp.) past is relevant to the present.

Bush Derangement Syndrome has run amuck, and the Democrat Party is officially off its medication. Perhaps a mock therapy session is in order?

Seriously, what I would like the Republicans to emphasize now is the astounding irrationality behind virtually everthing that the Democrats do and say. It's all hyperbole and hysteria with them.

"C reported on his recent talks in Washington. There was a perceptible shift in attitude. Military action was now seen as inevitable. Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy.

C= Sir Richard Dearlove, head of MI6

[Link: www.timesonline.co.uk...]

This is just more evidence that the Democratic Party is in deep, deep trouble.

According to the party Chairman, Republicans (and presumably anyone who voted for Bush) are white, Christian, and have never worked a day in any of their lives. They are worthy of hatred, and the party Chairman does indeed hate them and everything they stand for, by his own declaration.

According to the Minority Whip, the second ranked Democrat in DC, American servicemen engage in behaviour that one would expect from Nazis, Stalinist Soviets or Khmer Rouge. Things like restraints, hoods, boobies, air conditioning and urine are used to annoy jihadis sworn to kill us. This behaviour invites the comparison of our sons and daughters to those who murdered millions in cold blood in these totalitarian regimes on the floor of the Senate. As of a few days later, the number of this Senator's colleagues to distance themselves from these comments is zero.

I wonder what other segments of America top level Democrats will deign to grieviously offend before November '06 rolls around.

Whites. Christians. Military (and their families, dontcha know) Republicans, Red Staters. People who generally and honestly like America, and who we are and what we're about. These people are all repulsive, according to Democrat leadership.

Who does this leave to vote for them? Why should anyone vote for them when all they have to offer is hate?

Film it in 140mm I-MAX. Project it across the Statue of Liberty. Have Siegfried and Roy's white tigers prowling around the base of the statue. Then David Copperfield could make all of it dissappear (If only).

How close are these idjits to actual treason and sedition with this, anyway? Can't THEY be impeached for this kind of dispicable outrage?

This is the usual "Dissent is patriotic" LLL justification for doing this.

OT: CAIR: Hurt Feelings in Lodi, California

The federal government indicted a father and son from Lodi, California on 16 June on terrorism related charges:

This is an example of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) getting around to doing its job properly; defending the United States from terrorist attacks. The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), has taken the usual tack of not addressing the crime and instead attacking the accuser.

These are the words of Basim Elkarra, executive director of the Sacramento chapter of CAIR:

“We have documented numerous reports of intimidating tactics used recently by some FBI agents. We’ve become disappointed and alarmed at reports of abuse by local FBI.”

And:

"There have been threats of deportation, telling someone they can't have an attorney, when the attorney was on the phone they wouldn't speak to the attorney."

In addition, Elkarra made allegations that law enforcement threatened to detain people for jaywalking; conducted surveillance of a mosque, and grabbed a youth by the arm.

During one arrest, according to Elkarra, agents "knew there were three females in the house and five children, but they still came in with guns”.

CAIR alleges egregious violations of civil rights, but then, in our opinion, fails to provide any proof. In the alleged case of the agents effecting an arrest with women and children in the house, would CAIR rather law enforcement knock politely and invite the terrorism suspect to come out for a quick chat on the stoop? Or does CAIR believe that terrorism suspects in America should use women and children as human shields, as they do in Iraq and Gaza?

What do local Muslims think of CAIRs interference?

Apparently, not much.

According to the article, Lodi Muslims are not appreciative of CAIRs standing by the father and son as well as two local imams arrested on immigration violations. Local Muslims plan to protest at the Sacramento office of CAIR.

Lodi Muslim Mosque board member Nick Qayyum stated that the two imams:

"…divided our families -- brothers against brothers, sisters against sisters. If (CAIR) is going to go out to support these people, we're going to protest…that's not a joke, either. As far as I'm concerned, (Khan and Ahmed) hijacked our religion and tried to hijack us “

A sizeable proportation of Lodi Muslims have chosen to stand up to CAIRs hateful tactics, rightly pointing out that it is their community and that CAIR clearly is on the wrong side in this latest battle against Islamofascism.

It looks to Anti-CAIR that Lodi Muslims have rejected the hate, bigotry, and cheap tactics of CAIR; we’re happy to note this development and hope that this is a continuing trend in the American Muslim community ...

Scoop Jackson, JFK and FDR are rolling in their graves.

Wow...that's all i can say, i'm so dumbstruck that this how adults, elected officials, no less, are spending their time. if anyone other than howard dean was running that place, i'd think this was satire from the onion.

#190 amir - Holy shit. If he hadn't said it intending it to be an insult to Israel, I'd have applauded this line:
"We, who don't give a hoot for the opinion of the entire UN membership or for international law, we who have refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, we have adopted the strategy of force - we have decided that it is our mission to destroy Iran's nuclear capability. Iran doesn't have that capability as yet, but we and India, Pakistan and Russia -- the countries surrounding Iran - do. Our mission is clear and it is up to us to provide the lead in a war whose consequences no one can predict."
I think he's even got Conyers and Durbin beat for moonbattines.
He was the minister of EDUCATION?! OMG.

Medved made a great case today for the direct correlation of smoking dope and voting democrat. Wish I had it on tape.

Hey, I burn herb and I'm a proud Conservative. Granted, I lean Libertarian, but I'm still a Republican!

Last week Dean called the Republicans the party of White Christians. I assumed than he considered his party the party of Black Jews. Scratch half that constituency. I haven't seen such moonbatty self-destructiveness ever.

How many times have we heard that dissent is patriotic? What does that really mean? And where did the idea come from? Our founding fathers, it cannot be said lightly, had some major points of dissention with England. To wit, they expressed their dissatisfaction with the policies of their colonial masters and ultimately made a Declaration of Independence. Dissent has never been expressed more eloquently since. Perhaps the modern justification for this view of dissent as patriotic comes from failed presidential candidate and former Ambassador to the UN Adlai Stevenson:

Do not regard the critics as questionable patriots. What were Washington and Jefferson and Adams but profound critics of the colonial status quo.
What status quo is being raged against these days? Certainly not the status quo of the appalling regime of Saddam Hussein. The problem with dissent as it is currently being practiced is that the principles for which the dissent is expressed run contrary to the greater good of the nation and the world.
Once war is engaged, the only acceptable end game for a patriot is Victory. How many calls for Victory do you hear amongst those who place themselves in the ranks of the dissenters? What greater good is being served by this dissent? To what purpose or principle does the dissent serve? The answers to those questions tell me all I need to know about which protestors are patriotic and which are not.
Patriotism is many things to many people. How we define patriotism is an important factor in its usage.

Well Said!

Are people this emotionally crippled the quality of representative we want dealing on our behalf in Washington?

Holy smokes, I actually have to get work done, leave and come back and see a new thread already at 220 posts.

You know, when I was in College Republicans, we did what they call "model legislature" in the actual state senate and assembly rooms in the state capital.

The College Republicans behaved themselves. Debated bills and acted rather mature (even afterwards when the drinking started). The Young Democrats were, well jerks. The head of the CR's gave a nice speach on what he wanted to accomplish, the head of the Dems went on this nasty rant, calling Republicans "merchants of death" and just spewed hate.

I would imagine now my generation is moving into lower leadership positions in the parties. I fear for the Democrats if this is what they are to become.

The concept of a 'moot court' is familiar to most of us, I daresay...but for the Democrats to actually carry out something like this within the precepts of the government buildings is so...like a bunch sailors on Mutiny on the Bounty, plotting treason. It's all so seedy and backdoor and unseemly! As a Democrat I'd be ashamed to have any part in it.

#251 TotallySirius

As I've said before the Demonrats haven't had a new idea since the New Deal,and that sucked.

You forgot the "Great Society", which sucked worse.

Hey, everybody...

They can stage all the "Mock" Impeachments they want.

We already got to do a real one. YEAH!

I used to think it was real waste of time, but now, I am really, really glad they did it.

SYRIA MURDERS... AMNESTY SILENT... {crickets 'chirp chirp'}
DAILY SCORECARD

Murdering in Lebanon, Syria and Iraq... Oh well...

a) Amnesty supports 'resistance' in Iraq to the Great Satan
b) Syria's murdering Kurds in Syria, so who cares... they're not Arabs... yawn

Conyers has a history of this shtick when a successful conservative Republican president is in office, calling twice for President Reagan's impeachment:

In 1983, Clinton defender John Conyers called for Reagan's impeachment for invading Grenada. (For good measure, he earlier called for impeachment over the Gipper's alleged "incompetence" in dealing with unemployment.)

Also during that period:

In 1984, as he ran for President, and again in 1986, Jesse Jackson suggested Reagan should be subject to an impeachment probe over U.S. actions in Nicaragua. Rep. Henry Gonzalez called for impeachment in 1983 over Grenada and again in 1987 over Iran-Contra. The National Organization for Women and the American Civil Liberties Union advocated impeaching Reagan in 1987.

Si, si, I'd get weak in the knees if Zell Miller were our Presidente. Jose Maria Aznar--ok, so he's a Spanish speaker--but real hombres who want to kick terrorist posterior--also works.

You sound like me. When asked about my politics I tell people I'm liberally conservative in my libertarian views.

George Washington proudly grew hemp next to the rye he grew to make burbon for export. Tobacco was our first major export.

Dammit, this nation was founded on intoxication.

The Democrats know exactly what they are doing. They are consciously reaching out for Muslim votes.

#266 Bubble Girl

Actually, it's Hungarian Gulag Butterhorn cookies.

Who was it who described the opposition as a collection of "brigands, pederasts, and lawyers"?

Updating a classic 18th century exchange in the British parliament (often falsely attributed to Gladstone and Disraeli in a much later period):

Self-righteous Dhimmicrat: "You, sir, shall end your days either upon the gallows or from some loathesome disease."
Anti-idiotarian: That, sir, depends upon whether I embrace your principles or your mistress."

Don't forget Durbin's tasty recipe for Gitmo Gumbo.

"I have had Libertarians and Republicans tell me they have no category for me, that I am beyond category, LOL! "

You too?

You too?

Same here. I took a political leanings test online once that plots your political orientation on a large grid sectioned off into different areas. There was a narrow wedge section stuck in between the large Republican and Libertarian sections, simply labeled "Capitalist". I wound up in the dead center of it.

Senator Dick Durbin first obtained this recipe about 40 years ago when he was a paperboy for the now-defunct East St. Louis Journal (the same paper that the late Congressman Melvin Price once wrote for as a sports reporter). One Christmas, a customer gave Durbin a box of these cookies, which proved so popular with the entire family that he went back for the recipe. Durbin's mother baked them every Christmas.

However, what is very very clear at this point in American politics is that, outside of country club anti-semitism, the real madness is firmly on the left.

ahem...

David Duke? Pat Buchanan? I frankly don't think antisemitic 'paleoconservatism' is limited to the country clubs...it's certainly all over the internet.

Have you ever looked at vdare.com?

Freaky Boy @ 273

LOL LOL Gitmo Gumbo...

Pol Potstickers?

#266 bubble girl

Hey Chica, Dick Durbin's not serving gulag goulasch nor Cuban black beans and rice--these aren't good enough for our enemy combatants who need FRENCH trained chefs to saute their cuisine such as Rice Lyonnaise and filet of sole Meuniere au limon.

#254 taxfreekiller

Our forefathers in the late 1700's were highly educated in the classics, loved their country above all else and had incredible minds. They were also extraordinary statesmen.

We would not be here today if it were not for them.

You will notice that these to men have been all but expelled from the Republican Party, and today write anti-war columns that make the lefties who used to despise them swoon.

They simply don't represent Conservatism today, just as Truman and JFK would not feel comfortable in todays Democrat Party (much to its detrement).

Not to mention ready to go to war over it.

Do you know of George Washington's involvement in putting down the Whiskey Rebellion?

Si, si... es verdad... and all the better that Aznar is a Spanish speaker, it makes me very proud. Very, very proud!

He "claims" it is, among many other claims. You know, like claiming to work at Sandia Labs but also claims he lives in Texas? Sorry, I have a bad feeling about this one.
