"There You Go Again..."

Doug's at it again. Bashing Cindy Sheehan and all Liberals.

He cannot help it. He is run by emotion and a darkened world-view filled with fear and loathing.

He claims some level of objectivity because he, and a few others, have come out against Pat Robertson's insane doctrine of assasination. Good for you Doug.

Sheehan, not an accomplished speaker or thinker, has made some misteps to be sure. Those should be noted. Here is a quote given to CBS News where one such gaff is obvious:

"No, because it's not true," Sheehan replied. "You know Iraq was no threat to the United States of America until we invaded. I mean they're not even a threat to the United States of America. Iraq was not involved in 9-11, Iraq was not a terrorist state. But now that we have decimated the country, the borders are open, freedom fighters from other countries are going in, and they [American troops] have created more terrorism by going to an Islamic country, devastating the country and killing innocent people in that country. The terrorism is growing and people who never thought of being car bombers or suicide bombers are now doing it because they want the United States of America out of their country."

It's hard to argue with anything she says until she uses the term "Freedom Fighters". I would also take issue with Irag not being "a terrorist state". If they had had the means (which they obviously did not) the designation would fit. What they did to the Kurds is just one example.

But they did not possess WMD, nor did they take part in the attack on 9/11.

Fact. Deal with it Dougey-boy. No emotion. Fact.

Their initial resistance to invasion was, at times, like throwing dirt clods at tanks. Hmnn...take away the word "like".

There are more terrorists now due to the invasion. They are not "Freedom Fighters'. They are "Terrorists" fuled by religious zeal and rage. How else do you explain the widespread use of suicide bombings? Like all Fundamentalists, these people are deadly earnest.

Anyway, when Sheehan calls them "Freedom Fighters" she is as misguided as Bush & Co were when he stood on the flight deck and declared the war was over. Neither of them understands the terrorist mindset.

This is not about being emotional. Deal with the facts Doug...deal with what is HAPPENING on a daily basis, not your need to feel secure as a Conservative.

More people will die today for no good reason. There is no exit strategy and you will sit on your fat ass and draw comics all day long and whine about the Liberals. At least some of them have the balls to call this war what it is. Wrong.
