Where Have All the Sane Dems Gone? - (they're becoming more unbalanced by the day!)
AMERICAN CHRONICLE.COM ^ | JULY 15, 2005 | SHER ZIEVE

Posted on 07/15/2005 5:40:42 PM PDT by CHARLITE

As the terrorists heat up their attacks on Western civilization, today’s Democrats focus on the pretend ‘outing’ of long-time-ago covert CIA agent Valerie Plame. Dem sycophant Joe Wilson (Ms. Plame’s husband) gave a “press conference” Thursday, alongside Dem Senator Charles “Where’s the camera?” Schumer, in which Wilson said that it’s “irrelevant” whether or not Rove is guilty of any crime and that he should resign anyway. So, if the Dems don’t like you, Mr. Rove, I guess you’re supposed to leave your job. This, of course, is NUTS!

Pelosi and most Democrats have now joined Wilson, who has repeatedly been discredited for virtually all of his statements regarding how he gained his appointment to Niger (this discrediting came from a bi-partisan Senate Investigating Committee) and anything else he has spewed forth in the past, in their screams for Rove’s resignation, hide…and more. Then, just for laughs, perennial screamer DNC Chairman Howard Dean said the Dems will “beat Republicans by having a positive message”. Huh? What positive message? So far there haven’t been any. When will one of them be forthcoming, Howie? We’re all waiting for it. Note: Democrats think all elected Republicans, not categorized by them as “moderate” or “liberal”, should resign.

Then, after Democrats and Republicans returned from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility and had given it a clean bill of health (even after the Schmidt Report said of the terrorist-prisoners’ treatment “It was not considered to be overly abusive. There was no injury. There was no pain involved in this” and found that “only three interrogation acts” violated regulations and “No torture occurred. Detention and interrogation operations were safe, secure and humane”), Dem Senator Carl Levin is still whining and complaining about the treatment of the ‘poor terrorists’. Note: There are some people you cannot please any of the time and, despite clear and present danger to the country, they will continue with their contrary ways.

The Democrats abject hatred—yep, it’s hatred!—of President Bush is so pronounced that they will do and say anything to bring him to his knees. Good heavens Demmie guys and gals! Did you forget that Bush won’t be running for POTUS, again? Or is the old Dem adage “If we can’t be in power, the country can go to Hell…and we’ll help it get there!” really true? It sure sounds like it to me and, apparently, to an increasing number of independents and traditional liberals. The old song title “Where have all the flowers gone?” seems almost required to be rewritten. And “Where have all the sane Dems gone?” has become an increasingly valid question.

Just makes you want to laugh out loud. It never matters whether there was a real crime committed just make those mean republicans go home.

Whenever I see Joe Wilson I recall a good line from a bad movie, "I'll Do Anything":

"You're posing for a picture that no one is taking."

"You're posing for a picture that no one is taking."

An answer in search of a question, that nobody's asking.

Liberalism is a pychosis.

Liberalism is cynicism - the idea that nothing matters except PR.

We saw it with the x42 scandals, in which the press secretary would just say that yesterday's excuse was "no longer operative" - and tell a different whopper for today.

And because the "liberal" is a lapdog of journalism, he gets a new "get out of jail free" card every day. So he just goes out again the next morning and tells a new lie.

Where have all the sane Dems gone? Well, I know one of them, Zell Miller, recently retired. Other than that, if there are any others, I have no clue where they are.

"I know one of them, Zell Miller, recently retired. Other than that, if there are any others, I have no clue where they are."

What I've wanted to know for many years is exactly WHO decides, deep within some backroom of the Dem party, what the words and phrases are going to be used by ALL Democrats and their PR people, for a particular day or week's talking points?

Rush has run many audio montages with a dozen different Democrats using the exact same phrases on a particular day or week. These have to be devised, then distributed from a central location.

Who is the "wizard" behind the green curtain, who puts these things out? - the Clintons? - George Soros? - who?

Who orchestrates the "Phrase of the Day? They all use the same language and exact same phrases. There has to be one central source.......and somehow I doubt that the source is Howlin' Howie Dean, so who is it?"

Thanks for your comment, mysto!

Thought this quote was applicable to this discusion:

"Liberals have learned at a fearful cost the lesson that absolute power corrupts absolutely. They have yet to learn that absolute liberality corrupts absolutely." ~ Gertrude Himmelfarb (Bill Kristol's Mom)

Could minor Ambassador Joe Wilson himself have been the source in blowing his own Wife's cover?

It is distinctly possible, (though it may be unlikely that Joe Wilson himself directly was NY Times Judith Miller's source), since Joe Wilson himself evidently routinely bragged openly to strangers about her CIA employment, prior to such "cover" being "blown" in the press.

Here's an example of Joe's apparently routine and open bragging about Valerie being a "CIA agent," which became known directly to me over a year ago:

He certainly bragged about it per a famous and highly reliable source's (named below) account of his own face-to-face encounter with Amb. Joe Wilson prior to Valerie Plame's "outing" as a CIA agent/employee.

Based upon a personal conversation (we were in a small group eating; it was NOT an "off the record") I had with eminent historian Victor Davis Hanson (we were at a luncheon table together during a trip to Europe), it appeared entirely possible that Joe Wilson himself was the (or one source, if not the original one) possible source in revealing his own wife's status as a CIA agent or employee.

Victor Davis Hanson (Wilson presumably knew Victor Davis Hanson wrote regularly for NRO (National Review Online), had done OpEds for the Wall street Journal, and other publications, and had his own Website with a widespread following) said he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were both in the same "Green Room" before a televised debate-discussion on Iraq, etc. and Joe first warned the TV make-up person not to get powder on his $14,000 Rolex watch, then he bragged to Victor about several things (possessions and trips to Aspen, etc.), like his expensive car (I think it was a Mercedes), and then bragged about his beautiful wife who, Joe Wilson said (braggingly) was a CIA operative.

I asked Victor Davis Hanson Why he didn't write up this account.(?) He replied that Joe Wilson would probably simply deny it, since only he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were in the Green Room together before the broadcast.

However, it is now easy to surmise that Joe Wilson is a crass, materialistic, self-promoting, vain, egotistical, bragaddocio-opportunist, so this account is perfectly consistent with Valerie Plame's TWO photo shoots in Vanity Fair. (Or was it Vogue? No, probably too crass for Vogue, n'est pas?)

Excellent question, Char. I've wondered the same, but figured it out a long time ago. Here's the secret forumla:

Take the headlines from the three main liberal newspapers in alphabetical order from the previous day and select the first, third and last words from each. Paste them together and Voila!
