"As some of us have been trying to tell you, Democrats don't oppose the war on terrorism because they hate Bush: They hate Bush because he is fighting the war on terrorism. They would hate him for fighting terrorists even if he had a "D" after his name. They would hate Bernie Sanders if he were fighting a war on terrorism. In the past three decades, there have been more legitimate sightings of Big Foot than of "Scoop Jackson Democrats."
That's why Hillary Clinton has anti-war protestors howling at her public events. That's why she has drawn an anti-war primary opponent, Jonathan Tasini, who appears to believe that Israel is a terrorist state. If those rumors I've been hearing about a Hezbollah/Hamas/DNC merger are true, we might be in for a slightly longer fight.
In Tuesday's primary, Connecticut Democrats dumped Joe Lieberman, an 18-year incumbent, because he supports the war on terrorism. This is the same Joe Lieberman who voted against all the Bush tax cuts, against banning same-sex marriage, against banning partial-birth abortion, against the confirmation of Judge Alito, against drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and in favor of the Kyoto accords. Oh yes, this was also the same Joe Lieberman who was the Democrats' own vice presidential candidate six years ago.
Despite all this, Connecticut Democrats preferred stalwart anti-war candidate Ned Lamont, great-nephew of Corliss Lamont, WASP plutocrat fund-raiser for Stalin. Lamont's main political asset is that he is a walking, breathing argument in favor of a massive inheritance tax. His plan for fighting the terrorists is to enact a single-payer government health plan and universal pre-K education programs. His goal is to unite the "cut" and "run" wings of his party into one glorious coalition."
It's at first glance passing strange that the Loons would rale against Senator Joe. That's until the real reason is identified and the real reason is money. Tons of it. The lefties will only contribute to the candidate who hates America enough to surrender to the terrorists, and for all of Joe's faults, he wasn't one of the Cut & Runner's. Ned Lamont is. Now, Joe can run as an independant and really screw things up for the Dems chances of retaining his liberal Democratic seat, but linear thinking is NOT a loon forte so they'll prance in the streets about their "victory" over America, right up to the point where they've suddenly realized that they've even LESS elected officials than before.
It's a shame our enemy, America's enemy, is so stupid, because a genuine opponent would be promoting genuine candidates and that would be good for America.
If thie is their big plan for '06 and '08 then poor RodHam will wither on the vine.
