"The right-wing takeover of America has been stopped!"
LMAO!!!
The welfare grandmothers, abortion enthusiasts, condom throwing sodomites, gold-chained union "organizers", Hollywood drunks, race extortionists, college professors, permanently oppressed race victims, and all the other losers, parasites and humorless malcontents who makes up the Democrat Party base are WINNING. Hahahahahahahaha....!
Angel, you've been around here long enough to know you should list the author (Froma Harrop) in the heading.
The writer denounces the questioning of patriotism (I don't recall that) from the conservative senators as a purely political maneuver, then praises it from the "moderates" when used as a purely political maneuver.
The problem I have with people who cackle over "turnabout" is that it is another example of amorality being praised by the left. It's like me, as a pro-gun voter, being anti-gun in order to defeat a pro-gun democrat. I've won a momentary victory but have trashed my morals.
Yet silly people like this writer giggle over it when THEIR guy does it.
(de·lu·sion) (d[schwa]-loo¢zh[schwa]n) [L. delusio, from de from + ludus a game] a false belief that is firmly maintained in spite of incontrovertible and obvious proof or evidence to the contrary and in spite of the fact that other members of the culture do not share the belief.
This silly, rhetoric-heavy, fact-light column shows how deluded these people are.
No mention of the booming Bush economy, the successful election in Iraq, Bush's rise in the polls, the renewed support for Iraq in the polls, the resurgeance of Merry CHRISTmas, the decision about "separation of church and state" recently.
Dream on, libs, the graves you're whistling past are there for your party's future, like it or not.
These people have been smokin' too much of they're own product. Stopped? Hell, we're just getting warmed up.
The pro-environment senators easily ignored the latest tantrum by Sen. Ted Stevens, the Alaska Republican obsessed with developing the refuge.
Why is it that east coast elites and west coast tree huggers know more about what is better for Alaska than the people who live there?
"For starters, the Senate said "no" to opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling. It has saved the refuge before, but this time the Republican oilmen turned the vote into a game of chicken."
HOOREY! Big oil money loses out to big Environmental money! Between the shortage and the high gas tax, we'll all be getting bikes this summer. :)
"The pro-environment senators easily ignored the latest tantrum by Sen. Ted Stevens, the Alaska Republican obsessed with developing the refuge."
Yeah, screw Alaska! They're a red state. Who cares if we're forcing our morality on them? What are they going to do? Being 50th in population we can drag these backwoods hicks anywhere we want to go!
"In another vote, the Senate temporarily extended the USA Patriot Act past its Dec. 31 expiration date. President Bush wanted the anti-terrorism law renewed, but that wasn't going to happen without a frank conversation on his recently revealed surveillance activities...The citizens have not signed on to giving Bush the right to wiretap Americans making international calls without a warrant -- especially since he already can do it in an emergency and ask permission later."
Cause the American left LOVES to befriend people who hate us. Kind of makes you wonder what they're talking about eh?
"The third victory for rational thinking took place in central Pennsylvania. There, a federal judge ruled that "intelligent design" -- a crypto-creationist challenge to the theory of evolution -- is religion, and forcing it on science classes in Dover, Pa., was unconstitutional."
Cause as we all know Atheism isn't a religion. Even though it has an opinion about god, places of worship (science labs) and beliefs in things that can't be proven (like black holes) we can still teach it in schools, cause the schools are left wing ivory towers and we say what goes down in them...
"All these events, one after another, suggest that the newfound courage of moderates is not a fluke."
He means "moderates" in the French kind of way - remember, right now France has a "Conservative" government...
"There never was this big groundswell to develop a wildlife refuge,"
The groundswell was in Alaska, but since that's thousands of miles from LA and New York who cares?
"make Bush king"
Yeah, that's reserved for leftists like Bill and Hillary...
"or teach creationism in the schools."
Cram our religion of Atheism on the populace...
"The nation has begun to march in the other direction from the right-wing majorettes. May the parade grow long in 2006."
And the parade will stay sort of long...until we run out of beer, dope and money for bribes.
If you expected "sensible" arguments from Froma Harrop, you were sadly misinformed. Left-wing feminist screeching is her metier.
I never thought I'd see the day that the democrats would try to sell themselves as trying to protect constitutional rights, and some thinking themselves to be conservatives, would buy off on it. I'll admit to having had concerns over the Patriot Act at times. That has been relieved significantly as the democrats have come to my rescue.
More lies from the left. ANWR wasn't going to be "developed" - a very, very small portion of the 10-02 area was going to be. Lies, lies, and more lies. That's all the left can offer because that's all they have. The truth is not on their side with any issue.
"The right-wing takeover of America has been stopped!"
Sounds like Frau Harrop forgot to take her medication this morning. *snerk*
It’s funny, Stevens has bent over backwards for the liberals for most of his time in the Senate. And now he makes one plea from those he helped, to help him on this vote.
The funny thing is that he thought that they would.
Just like most Republicans who compromise with the libs, expecting them to be fair, are in for a rude awakening.
He said this in the same breath when he and his friends under minded our soldiers in Iraq, then he probably logged onto Al Jazzera, while bemoaning all this "Merry Christmas" tripe.
The very fact that he thinks this activist judge who took a hard swing of his fist at Christians in that illogical and ridiculous ruling shows you everything you need to know about this guy.
First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.
2 Peter 3:3
If the President can just sign an executive order making something a national park... can't he just sign an executive order NOT making it a park? Heck, if I were Bush I'd sign a executive order giving ANWR to Exxon, just to see the left flip out.
Why is it that the enviro blowhards will go to the mat to defend uninhabitable regions above the Artic Circle and yet ignore mining operations so close to major cities?
Their assigned text next semester is my own (reliable) "Patriot's History of the United States."
But the good news is that as long as these morons keep lying to each other about the quicksand they are in, they cannot fix the problem. That's great news. Rejoice!
