Don'cha just love it when libs try to tell us how we should think, and what we should do?
Above is a piece from Victor Davis Hanson(scroll down about half way) who really has the rats analyzed to a tee. He has dissected them and knows exactly why they are the way they are. I excerpted a couple of paragraphs that are just priceless from a brilliant political analyst IMHO.
"Why this exaggeration and shrillness. Is it frustration over losing the Congress, Presidency,Supreme Court, and majority of State Legislatures and Governorships. Frustration from learning that a cobbled together coalition of gay marriage advocates, radical feminists, abortion on demand supporters, the old race industry emblazoned by Jesse Jackson, as well as the radical pacifism of the left wing blogs--all that only garners 45% of the popular vote---unless there is a pubbie scandal, a losing war, recession, or a dem running for President with enough of a Southern accent to fool voters that he is a true conservative.
So I think this anger arises over acceptance that the country does not wish what dems have to offer,and thus driving them to scream and scare the country into thinking we are in a 1930's depression, Vietnam redux,a Watergate or illegal wire tapping--almost anything to get back over the 50% hump--without having to reform and adopt more moderate policies--and to do what Michale Moore and co. what the pubbies once did to Birch Society die hards and neo confederates".
A brilliant analysis of why the rats are so exercised about not achieving power and why they are willing to sell their collective souls to get to 50% of the popular vote and why they will never do so. You can find it her at:

Here comes the macaca thing. I hope Allen laughs it off.
Nina is one of the most useless pundits I've ever seen on national television. She is an embarrassment to women.
Thanks! I'll miss Mr. McCain this morning on purpose but I still want to know what crap he's preaching. Brit is, as always, the best.
Lays out the FACT that last year McCain got passed into law the standards for interrogation....which the WH wants to include as clarification of Section 3, but NOW, McCain says that's not good enought..."and they are his own words".
@@@@@@
I'm happy that Brit led with this statement.
Kristol kept saying that President Bush will win this showdown with McCain, and what Brit pointed out is the reason. McCain is irrational.
:0)
This is BS!! Webb said that the USNA is a great place for 'horny women'. This guy (Webb) is a real lady hater.
I think that'as correct, Carolinamom.
He got a high off all the media attention he got during that time and he's never been able to quit his addiction to them.
Nina calls Powell a "team player",
@@@@
What team has Nina been watching?
Yeah I'll never understand why Brit made her a regular on the Special Report panel.
Now Timmie is playing the race-card.
I guess she would have said the same thing about Terrell Owens last year.
I hope Allen does better. From an email I wrote to a Democrat yesterday:
President Bush wants to clarify Common Clause 3, not rewrite it. It’s pretty simple, really. Clarify it so our interrogators can get the information they want or not. If it’s not clarified, investigators will not use the means they have used in the past to get information. If it is clarified, they will continue getting that information. The courts have forced us into making the distinctions on these procedures so it’s a bit disingenuous to blame President Bush. Are you suggesting you agree with the courts in giving USA constitutional protections to these terrorists?
Two more points. If you don’t want the USA to clarify what is meant by this why did the US Senate ram through the non-torture bill? Did that not clarify our position on torture? So, it’s a bit hypocritical to support one and now oppose another. Have you read the Geneva Conventions? You might want to read them to understand how ambiguous they are as well as understand how they have been ignored by other counties, and can be interrupted to mean different things to different people. For me, I cannot understand our desire to commit suicide in the face of an enemy we now have to contend with. Torture them to get information and then kill them works fine as far as I’m concerned.
That is excellent, Morgan.
Thanks. This should be interesting.
