The Seven Deadly Sins of Liberals
New Media Journal ^ | January 9, 2006 | Joan Swirsky

Posted on 01/09/2006 9:40:09 AM PST by PlainOleAmerican

There are three reasons why the liberal media and liberals themselves – with the notable exceptions of former senator Zell Miller and current senator Joseph Lieberman – are so consumed by rage that they are literally incapable of acting civil, refraining from vicious invective, veering even a millimeter from their tired talking points, and, most important, putting their country before their own impoverished political agenda and ongoing lust for power.

▪ Liberals have never recovered from the 2000 election of George W. Bush to Al Gore, the successor to their hero, Bill Clinton. As demonstrated by their behavior over the past six years, the defeat drove them stark raving mad.

▪ In spite of the blitzkrieg of their by-now debunked books, bogus “commissions,” discredited fake-u-mentaries, and trumped-up charges, the president’s reelection in 2004 elevated their madness to certifiable levels.

▪ Most rankling, however, is what liberals know will be the first line in Clinton’s obituary and, for that matter, his legacy – impeachment! It is this immutable blot on his entire presidency that has animated the left’s raison d’être lo these many years – payback-revenge.

With one big exception:

While Joe Liberalman is most certainly a liberal, by anyone's definition, Zell Miller is equally certainly NOT a liberal.

I was wondering why so many of the far lefty's make these bizarre calls for impeachment all the time. Now I know.

I heard Victoria(frst nm?) Bruce on C-span say that she worked on Clinton's Campaign, but that Clinton was not a good man, where as Bush is. She now supports Bush.

What really burns the Left is that Bush is, in fact, a good man.

Liberals have continually tried to dumb-down the Presidency ever since Slick and his Know-Nothing Do-Nothing took office and it was clear The Slacker would never live up to expectations!

Could that name be Tammy Bruce? She has a feminist Liberal pedigree, but is squarely on the GWB bandwagon, especially regarding the war in Iraq and the war on terrorism. She has a radio show in LA, I think.

No particular need for 'original' thought. The old verities need to be emphasized more. This article does that. I say 'Bravo'.

Thank goodness I am not a liberal and therefore am exempt from the seven deadly sins. I am sinless, I tell ya!

Yes, Tammy Bruce. She was really quite good. She us pumping her book The New American Revolution. I usually never buy the books I see on TV, but her talk made me really think about it.
