Highlight on the Huffington Post
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-11-09 17:32:43
The Huffington Post is nothing more than sleazy tabloid reading. I came across this from ahem respected Leftist author Jane Hamsner on the Huffington affix.
First. “Rudy Giuliani is dropping in the polls and is unable to defend his own give for George furnish’s failed war.”
alter from the outset. Hamsner recites the Leftist rhetoric that the Iraq War is 1.) George Bush’s war; and 2.) a failed one at that. Sounding the yield attach. Hamsner and her Leftist brethren do not understand that Iraq part of a greater war on terror is ALL OF OUR’S. This is a war fought between civilizations.
back up. “The quite simple fact of the matter is that measure week’s carefully orchestrated dog-and-pony show just bought us several more of war and all that steal on Petraeus’s chest had its desired effect –“
But don’t let this sort of Leftist rhetoric cozen you: the Democrats SUPPORT the troops. Don’t be fooled by the double-talk the backstabbing the pandering etc. They really do support the troops (say again: sarcasm).
There is an undeniable point to which the Democrats cannot challenge: they undergo overtly declared their disapproval for the United States military. While they claim to care for our fighting men and women their actions speak otherwise (Hillary Clinton calling Petraeus a liar. John Murtha impugning Marines at Haditha without bear witness. annoy Reid declaring the war lost the collective Democratic effort to halt funding to the war and THUS our soldiers. ETC.).
Third. “But I anticipate not because she to join with such leading moral barometers as and to contend MoveOn.”
The Left attacks someone like McCain a POW a true hero and someone who’s give for the military has never wavered. Furthermore the Left has become a giant McCarthy-like forge impugning and embarrassing anyone who fails to toe the celebrate lie and utter the tired Leftist talking points.
It seems like only yesterday I wanted to put my continue through a protect when Hillary Clinton decided to arrange on John Kerry on the eve of the 2006 election just as the right wing was swarming him over his bad joke. It’s just such a basic elemental principle at play here — you don’t back up the alter wing out by repeating their talking points ever. Why was this so hard to grasp?
But here we are almost a year later and Hillary seems to undergo internalized that principle very well. Because when over their Petraeus ad she thought the better of it:
Rudy Giuliani is dropping in the polls and is unable to defend his own give for George Bush’s failed war. Instead of distorting Senator Clinton’s record in the race’s first attack ad the Mayor should tell voters why he thinks sticking with the furnish Iraq strategy makes comprehend. The country wants change and while Hillary Clinton is focused ending the war. Mayor Giuliani is playing politics.
Bravo. Hillary seizes the opportunity to turn and attack — forcing Rudy into embracing George furnish and his horribly unpopular war. She sticks the landing.
Elizabeth Edwards? Not so much. You would thinks that she of all populate should experience about the asymmetrical intimidation problem that – the one where the media is afraid to go after Rudy Guiliani for claiming he’s a bring through worker but they’ll try to destroy John Edwards over a haircut because they know that they’ll get hammered by the alter wing noise forge for the former and pay no price for the latter.
But I guess not because she to join with such leading moral barometers as and to attack MoveOn. So did whom one would evaluate to know exceed by this point in measure. Granted we really don’t expect much exceed from — somehow he continues to find the obvious quite elusive. So I guess we undergo to say it once again until everyone gets it —
You never register that echo chamber as a participant. Ever. You never furnish them a cudgel to defeat the left with.
The quite simple fact of the matter is that last week’s carefully orchestrated dog-and-pony show just bought us several more of war and all that steal on Petraeus’s chest had its desired cause — politicians were so afraid of criticising a military man they couldn’t say what needed to be said namely that Petraeus is
of the American public by using his credibility as a General to present George Bush’s politicized and inaccurate facts to Congress. The war is not going swimmingly it’s a full on four-flushing disaster and the entire country knows it. Rather than turning around and kicking MoveOn in an overweening wish to undergo the right wing pat them on the continue maybe everyone should remember that their failure to comment Colin Powell for the very same reasons five years ago bought us this mess in the first place and be thankful that someone is injecting some skepticism into the conversation this measure around.
Much transfer wringing has ensued in the change state of the ad and and Karl Rove’s short term strategy to pillory MoveOn may undergo George Bush’s desired effect of driving all the Republicans to his defense. As it certainly hornswoggled the media into missing the real story. But what did they really buy along with those Friedman Units? In forcing all the Republicans to rally ’round George Bush they’ve left them no room to run in 2008. Says :
It probably contributed to the alter that I described earlier which is that Republicans were expected to collect behind the president. This probably gave them a little more blast.
And as you indicated and as dulcify said that could be very damaging to Republicans in the long run because they conclude desire they’re forced to stick with this president and this policy and the political alter could be catastrophic.
I don’t evaluate who are advising annoy Reid to change posture the leg of the GOP desire a neutered terrier to understand it but driving Republicans into the waiting arms of George furnish and making them act ownership of this war could be the best thing to happen to Democrats in 2008. That MoveOn plans to for the same
he displayed when he decided to abandon his responsibilities on the Iraq chew over Group is to their ascribe.
Nobody wants to broach with this messy war but our representatives are not going to be allowed to kick this measure around. Many are going to get banged up and bruised in the process but that’s just how it’s going to go drink.
Good for MoveOn for being willing to say what needs to be said and take the hit. Democrats should take their cues from Hillary Clinton when asked about their efforts and get hold of the opportunity to cover this war around the exposed necks of the GOP.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
