Dear Left-Wingers:

Trying to make the case that Howard Dean is a moderate, is about as incredulous as trying to make the case that the California Recall is the result of a vast right-wing conspiracy.

Dear Left-Wingers:

Trying to make the case that Howard Dean is a moderate, is about as incredulous as trying to make the case that the California Recall is the result of a vast right-wing conspiracy.

Years ago, I gave up trying to discuss issues with liberal leftists because I came to realize that their belief system (similar to flat-earthers, astrology buffs, believers in UFOs and Tarot card readers) is really the product of their diminished psychological health, rather than logic, facts, and honesty.

In this regard, I think that, when left-wing columnists such as Bill Press says: "...the anger that most Democrats, and a growing number of Americans, feel toward this administration" (as he cited in his article) http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=34218 is overwhelming the liberal left's ability to assess the reality of the current political scene.

Left-wingers such as Bill Press are consumed by anger. Apparently, they would rather get behind a candidate that -- unlike all the other wimpy democratic candidates -- can symbolically 'beat up' on George Bush during the election cycle, rather than support a candidate who has a chance to win the general election.

Moreover, it is evident that many left wingers hold an unconscious resentment and visceral hatred of the Republicans because the Republicans (in the twisted leftists' mind) represent a controlling, and sometimes religious and/or moral based parental authority. The leftists relate this authority to the broken-home, unsuccessful upbringing, alcohol and dope-fueled painful relationship they had (and have) with their own parents.

This unresolved psychological conflict obliterates the ability of liberal-leftist to see the world clearly.

Now don't get me wrong, I am hoping - praying -- that Howard Dean receives the nomination. However, I point out this psychological reality merely to convey the transparency of extreme left-wing psychological motives, and how ineffectual and anemic their political arguments are in fact.

Those with unresolved psychological issues continue, time after time after time, to repeat the same mistakes. And, thankfully, for the well-being and security of the United States and the rest of the free world, the left-wings' new so-called 'Moderate' - Howard Dean - is yet another, and the latest of a series of colossal, and self-destructive mistakes.

Here we go. It's Clintoon redux. The press will paint him as a "progressive moderate". Amazing how fast they runaway from that liberal label...until they take up residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

"Trying to make the case that Howard Dean is a moderate, is about as incredulous as trying to make the case that the California Recall is the result of a vast right-wing conspiracy."

or as incredulous as trying to make the case that George Bush is a conservative?

The "whores" are much more effective at spreading this "liberal" disease than Howard is by a looong shot! Howard spends too much time trying to talk with his foot in his mouth to be too effective.

I don't think he has a shot. He may win the nomination with the help of the media, but eventually that temper and proclivity for speaking through his shoe will catch up. (Reminds me of McCain in 2000 - same temper)

IMO, don't think we have a concern with the Dean for President becoming a threat to Bush.

However, mark my works or I'll eat them....

GENERAL WESLEY CLARK will announce that he is running for President as a Demoncrat. Remember him? He has the support of the Hitlary... or perhaps he will run as Vice President with Hitlary running as President 2004.

Any one have comments?

Liberal was once an honest characterization for political belief. The leftwing socialists have hidden behind that name for years.

Not any more, they've soiled the word "liberal" enough that they are migrating to the "progressive" label.

Socialist hardly fits them anymore. "Statist" fits them well and says it all. It needs no qualifiers as it is the end of the line, the bottom of the pit.

Keep in mind, as of yet he is still in the minors. Who wouldn't look good with the foe he is competing with presently?

Wait until he hit's the majors (if he makes the grade and gets the nomination) and starts playing with the big boys! Then his bumbling will really come to light!
