[CDHart]

LOL! No, I didn't. I've been using it for years -- maybe this would be better? :<)

I bookmarked the Emoticons -- it would be a great reference or filler for the newsletter I do at work.

"What would you EXPECT Rush to say about it?"

---

His opinion , what else?

Rush talks in detail about subjects taken from the daily news and an Administration bill is news.
Especially when the consequences are horrendous to the sovereignty of this country. Do you believe it is important to have an informed citizenry, or not?

Well, look at you! Congrats.
I'm from The School of Hard Knocks and as far as I know there is no emoticon for that. {;^)

"I'm from The School of Hard Knocks "

Rush backs the Administration pretty close to 100% of the time.

Get back to me when he raises hell about this monstrosity and I'll be happy to eat my words.

Reminds me of...

"Stroke of the pen, law of the land. Pretty cool."

This new commission will create the beginning of a global UN army. It will claim the right to intervene in any conflict anywhere on the globe, bringing the World Bank and the IMF formally into the picture as well. It is a complete new world order, but undertaken with the enthusiastic support of many of those who consider themselves among the most strident UN critics.

Whatever. It is time for Paul to adjust his dose.

I think this guy is hilarious; I didn't know he was a writer.

Rush thinks that concerns about the CFR and Trilateral whatsisname and all that are tinfoil kookdom.

He seems to be solely interested in party politics.

Because Ron Paul generally favors what the Euroweenies favor in foreign policy: a gelded United States that waits to fight wars on our own soil rather than smashing our enemies on their own turf, in their own neighborhoods, among their own families.

The cause of the pantywaist form of isolationism died on 12/7/41 and died again on 9/11/01.

Severing US involvement in the UN is a great idea and ought to be pursued. Unfortunately, Paul apparently would substitute a Switzerland form or foreign policy for American foreign policy. We are not Switzerland. We have self-imposed responsibilities. If the rest of the world does not like that, tooooooo baaaaaaddd!

The New Right aka the Conservative Movement of the 1960s and 1970s IS the conservative movement and consists of the actual conservatives.

Contrary to the fantasies of the "paleo""conservatives" and of the New Republic and of the Nation and of leftist pundits, the "neoconservatives" are a handful of surviving NYC nonogenarians who attended City College in the 1930s as Marxists but refused to remain Demonrat when the Demonrats went fully communist under McGovern.

Coincidentally, most of the actual surviving neocons are also Jewish: Norman Podhoretz, Midge Decter, Irving Kristol, Gertrude Himmelfarb, etc., which takes on a very exaggerated importance for some reason among the so-called "paleo""conservatives", particularly those of the "blood and soil" variety.

Reformulation (consistent with history and reality): There are conservatives, there are populist conservatives, there are (about twelve surviving) neoconservatives. And there are confused socially unacceptable eccentrics who wish to be known as "paleo""conservatives" when they are in actual life alcoholic poetry-spouting romantic admirers of deservedly insignificant Balkan satrapies, who favor contemplation and yak-yak over ANY EFFECTIVE ACTION WHATSOEVER in all imaginable circumstances.

There are libertarians who are very often separated from conservatives by their rank enthusiasm for such social issue heresies as abortion-on-demand and lavender canoodling legalization and encouragement. Many libertarians are also separated from conservatives by an allergic reaction to the use of military force to extend American influence and to protect our own people and their interests abroad. Many libertarians are separated from conservatives by absolute worship of materialism.

You shame Goldwater and Reagan by attempting to replace them with the radical neocon invasion of the party.

Coincidentally, most of the actual surviving neocons are also Jewish: Norman Podhoretz, Midge Decter, Irving Kristol, Gertrude Himmelfarb, etc.,

I believe that to be a disingenuous statement Mr. Elk.

You haven't even scratched the surface in terms of naming neoconservatives. Oddly, and amusingly, enough George Bush is one of the rare ELECTED ones!

You named SOME of the early ones and I challenge you to name ANY early one that was not a Communist or a red diaper baby!

Here's what I offered to another FR brother when he inquired about this late 20th century political anomaly:
"It was conceived during/at the waning of the Viet Nam War. Scoop Jackson (the Senator from Boeing) Democrats sensed that the Dim Party was losing its appetite for a strong defense and a belligerent foreign policy and migrated to Reagan's strong anticommunist stand. So far so good ... but that's nowhere near the end of the story."

Closed quote. Most of these Democrat "born again" Republicans were Jewish, You say coincidence? I ask you "at this time of neocon conception did the U.S. appear in imminent danger"?

No, we were, even then, the most powerful nation on earth. Who then was placed in jeopardy by a perceived contraction of American belligerence?

BTW, does the name Leo Strauss ring any kind of (dangerously radical) bell with you?

May I respectfully suggest you get your allegiances in order?
