Moran Shows Us Who They Really Are
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Grab audio sound bite number 11. I mentioned I got an e-mail yesterday from a person in Virginia who was at the Jim Moran 9/11 rally, on the fifth anniversary. We have just a short snippet of this. I can actually provide you more details. This is Internet quality. This is Jim Moran yesterday in Arlington, Virginia.
MORAN: There are more people around the world who hate America and what they think it stands for than even life itself.
WOMAN IN CROWD: This isn't political!
MORAN: But let us -- but let us resolve.
RUSH: You heard the woman in the background shouting, "This isn't political!" What he said was there are more people around the world that hate America and what they think it stands for than even life itself. And, of course, as far as Jim Moran is concerned, that's our fault and it exists because of George W. Bush. Now, the e-mail I got was from a guy, I thought it was a guy, I don't remember. My memory is that it was a gentleman, and he was there. He described this scene, and Moran started getting political, and I guess this woman said, "Don't make this political. My brother died on 9/11." And somebody in the audience shouted at that woman, "Your brother and you aren't important. Let the congressman speak," and he went on to politicize 9/11.
I don't care what Moran says. That's not the point. Doesn't matter to me what he says, other than noting it as an indication of who these people are and what their animus is. You know, look at their issues. What are their issues? They can't talk about national security because they couldn't make that believable. So their issues are tax increases on the rich, health care for all, gay marriage, expanding the minimum wage and so forth, bunch of other kook, really out of the mainstream social things, and Bush is bad. They know that the out of the mainstream social things are not going to fly, they're not going anywhere, they never do, and so they focus on Bush is bad.
As the American Thinker piece I quoted earlier said, it is just morally bankrupt. By the way, there are nine elections today, nine primary elections today. Among them, Senator Lincoln Chafee. The AP story here says, "Moderate Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee " He's not a moderate! He's a liberal! There are other stories about how all these moderates are on the ballot today. This is from the Christian Science Monitor: Political moderates imperiled. They talk about Chafee here. "Many drivers, soaring toward the beach wave, honk or flash thumbs up to Senator Linc Chafee and a gaggle of roadside campaign volunteers, hoisting 'Keep Chafee' signs. Some travelers don't react at all, but one woman scowls and plunges a thumb toward the dashboard. 'It's rare you see a woman do that,' muses the Republican senator to those standing nearby. 'We'll get her in the general, though.' That's if Senator Chafee manages to get to the general. The GOP primary in Rhode Island will tell whether the soft-spoken, middle-of-the-road "
He's not middle of the road; he's not a moderate. He is a Democrat. Lieberman is not a moderate, either. Now, the only way you could make the case that Lieberman and Chafee are moderates is if you compare them to the kook fringe of the Democratic Party. Like the other day somebody said that Nancy Pelosi, given the makeup of House leftists, is actually a centrist Democrat. But that's only her position among far left and not-so-far-left and medium lefts. But she's still a flat-out San Francisco liberal. That's how far left the Democratic Party is going and will keep so.

The woman quoted in the excerpt above from the Transcript called Russ around 2:30 PM today to explain her "outburst".
I'd never heard of Moran, but he's has to be some feelingless, ignorant fool to have made such a speech at the fifth anniversary of September 11th.
Could someone please get a transcript of her conversation with Russ from this afternoon 9/13 (the lady's name was Katie) on what happened at the rally from her perspective and post it on Free Republic. It is bound to be an eye opener and good discussion piece.
Who is this "Russ" you mention twice?

MORAN: There are more people around the world who hate America and what they think it stands for than even life itself.
that sentence is incomprehensible!
(to me, anyway)
Russ is "RUSH LIMBAUGH"!!!
I was typing so fast (going from RUSH's page to FR's "post article page that I screwed up big time!!!
If any one knows how I can fix it let me know. Thanks.
Looks like they misspelled 'moron.'
I thought the same thing! The MORONS are the ones who elected Moran. They're called "liberal Democrats".
Yes, and Moran was notorious for his anti-Semitic statements too. He's a former boxer and a bully - known for his propensity for violence and physical confrontation.
I think he's an ex-pug who fought one too many rounds without his headgear on!
Never heard of CongressMoron? I'll tell you all you need to know. He tried to rename Reagan Int'l after Pres. Reagan died.
He must on the sauce. He looks like a drunk.
Article (transcript) refers to: article posted three times yesterday on Free Republic from the Sun Gazette,

"But Moran then maneuvered into more sensitive ground, suggesting that the country was not safer and intimating that the Bush administration's foreign policy was headed in the wrong directions.
More people hate us, Moran said, a comment that drew an outburst from the crowd.
My brother died on 9/11 - don't make this political, a woman in audience cried out.
Moran continued, calling on the nation to address the root causes of terrorism by the 10th anniversary of the attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center. "
So I called Morans DC # and got some young smart ass that was rude beyond belief and told me Bush politicized his speech blah blah blah and so then I called his Virgina office and some ahole there told me to call my own congressman and hung up on me! Lot of good that did me! Now I'm so pissed off and shaking with anger. I tried to argue a point with these jerks but couldn't and as I'm trying to speak the guy just keeps saying there's no need to get angry...AAAAAGGGGHHHHHHH!~ Anyone else call?
Wasn't moran on the verge of being indicted for corruption, besides being a wife-beating drunk? Typical RAT spokesman.
Wow! Moran actually brought up the Islamofascists?
Good for Katie.
Jim Moron is known to be a racist, and anti-Semite, and financially corrupt. (IOW, a typical liberal.) Now it seems he's also an America hater who has zippo compassion. He needs to be exposed.
It is quite comprehensible. It means they hate Bush because he won't give them what they want.
Send them faxes, lol.
Lol. Great little site.
One of the more entertaining articles:

To your true liberal everything is political. Breathing is political. I'm perfectly serious - to be alive is to participate in class oppression and social injustice. To the sane this is obsessive-compulsive behavior. To a liberal it's politics.
I promise you that you have dog crap in your back yard smarter than this puke.
I think it says that they hate America so much that they are willing to die to hurt America.
here is this moron monkeys constituent e-mail page......use "reston VA" and zip code "20910"
"Please Note: This service is for current 8th Congressional District constituents of Virginia only and will not accept messages from zip codes located outside of the 8th District."

Thank you for your feedback!
Dear Eighth District Resident: Thank you for visiting my website. I hope you found it a helpful resource and look forward to reviewing your comments in more detail. Please feel free to contact me again in the future. Yours truly, Jim Moran
But just try to talk about the Jersey Girls....
Then I assume his seat is cosidered "safe" for this election, eh?
Who's his opponents? Dem and GOP
Rush on this now.
