Michael Moore's Bitch Slap

I told you the Dems would overreach.
http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/asection/la-oe-moore17nov17,0,3842827.story

*...Thus, here is "A Liberal's Pledge to Disheartened Conservatives"
:1) We will always respect you. We will never, ever, call you "unpatriotic" simply because you disagree with us. In fact, we encourage you to dissent and disagree with us.

Michael, really. I doubt you which can muster much respect for the likes of me. I assume by "encourage to dissent and disagree with us" means the usual: you will distort, deny and obfuscate the discussion, then turn it to a personal attack about my mental acuity and emotional stability. We've been down that "comity" road before, Michael. Leftists like you can't respect anyone else's opinions--you are simply constitutionally incapable of such objectivity. Sorry.

See, Mike, old boy, what you represent is the most dangerous delusion this country has come up against in many decades. In other words, I can't trust you any further than I can throw you--and considering your size, well...

2) We will let you marry whomever you want (even though some among us consider your Republican behavior to be "different" or "immoral"). Who you marry is none of our business. Love, and be in love — it's a wonderful gift.

Good, considering I already have married whom I want, which is really great because hardly any of us care one way or the other. By the way, the "Republican" allusion in your statement is as suspicious as it was gratuitous. Again, with such sarcasm, I can't trust you.

3) We will not spend your grandchildren's money on our personal whims or to enrich our friends. It's your checkbook too, and we will balance it for you.

As for spending my grandchildren's money: yeah, you will. And regarding my checkbook, I'd rather have Gimpy the Chimp do that job, thanks.

4) When we soon bring our sons and daughters home from Iraq, we will bring your sons and daughters home too. We promise never to send your kids off to war based on some amateur Power Point presentation cooked up by men who have never been to war.

Sons and daughters! My, aren't we dramatic, especially since you have yet to acknowledge our military is a volunteer one. As for the promise to not send "my" kids off to war, you can't begin to make such a deal. No one can!

And that part about men who've never been to war? Look in the mirror, little boy. Then talk to me about your "view" of military matters.

5) When we make America the last Western democracy to have universal health coverage, and all Americans are able to get help when they fall ill, we promise that you too will be able to see a doctor, regardless of your ability to pay. And when stem cell research delivers treatments and cures for diseases that afflict you and your loved ones, we'll make sure those advances are available to you and your family too.

Of course, I'll finally see the that government doctor next year. However, I will admit that if I have a heart attack, I'll likely be seen within two to three months. You're right, Michael, if I fall ill, someone will see me--probably an undertaker.

About the stem cell thing: now this has really got out of control. You and your pals have absolutely NO proof that stem cells will give you the answers you seem to require. The problem with your position is it is paralleled to abortion rights and cloning. I'm just darned suspicious of what you really want to do in that Orwellian world you seem to long for. You want to create (clone) embryos to kill them. Admit it and we'll all be happier.

Not that it matters, but I think such a position is interesting because I can imagine your parents would've got rid of your genes in a nanosecond, had they known your tendency to overweight. Be careful, little man. This stuff is cosmic and meaningful. But then, you don't believe life begins at conception; I do.

6) When we clean up our air and water, you too will be able to breathe the cleaner air and drink the purer water. When we put an end to global warming, you will no longer have to think about buying oceanfront property in Yuma.


Gee, Michael, since your buds and you have cornered the market on scientific knowledge in these area, I am reticent to take anything any of you whackos seriously. I can't help but wonder just WHY you can't get all those scientists to agree with you. Personally, I'm of the mind the earth is big enough to take care of itself. How politically incorrect of me.

7) Should a mass murderer ever kill 3,000 people on our soil, we will devote every single resource to tracking him down and bringing him to justice. Immediately. We will protect you.

Huh? You mean mass murderers, or are you alluding to President Bush and that conspiracy theory that he did it, by God! For the record, we've not been hit since September 11, 2001.

8) We will never stick our nose in your bedroom or your womb. What you do there as consenting adults is your business. We will continue to count your age from the moment you were born, not the moment you were conceived.

No, you'll stay out of my bedroom, but you won't leave our classrooms alone. You will continue to "reeducate," that familiar leftist tactic. By the way, your group has done very well in taking our education system, as well as other institutions into your realm of social engineering.

In addition, your abortion baiting continues to reveal your hatred for people like me who have different opinions as to when conception begins. One thing's for sure: either way, you folks will retain your arrogance as this "pledge" clearly shows.

9) We will not take away your hunting guns. If you need an automatic weapon or a handgun to kill a bird or a deer, then you really aren't much of a hunter and you should, perhaps, take up another sport. In the meantime, we will arm the deer to make it a fairer fight.

On top of being rather stupid, your humor falls flat on most of us. Your personal feminization is more apparent when you attempt to talk about "guy" things. Check those hormones! There has to be a reason you retain water the way you do.

10) When we raise the minimum wage, we will raise it for your employees too. They will use that money to buy more things, which means you will get the money back! And when women are finally paid what men make, we will pay conservative women that wage too.

I know, Michael, you're rich; YOU pay the extra, but keep me out of it.

11) We will respect your religious beliefs, even when you don't practice those beliefs. In fact, we will actively seek to promote your most radical religious beliefs ("Blessed are the peacemakers," "Love your enemies," "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" and "Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me"). We will let people in other countries know that God doesn't just bless America, he blesses everyone. We will discourage religious intolerance and fanaticism starting here at home.

I love it when atheists attempt to talk about the meaning of scripture, then call people like me hypocrites. Michael, it is obvious you're ignorant when it comes to the Holy Bible. When were you in a Bible Study class last?

12) We will not tolerate politicians who are corrupt and break the law. And we promise you we will go after the corrupt politicians on our side first. If we fail to do this, we need you to call us on it. Simply because we are in power does not give us the right to turn our heads the other way when our party goes astray. Please perform this important duty as the loyal opposition.I promise all of the above to you because this is your country too.

Uh huh. Okay, I'm "calling you on it." Lemme see. Jack Murtha, unindicted coconspirator in Abscam; Harry Reid, found to have hidden assets; Nancy Pelosi, her brothers are lobbyists and the whole family comes from the City of Baltimore school of how to run a political machine; Alcee Hastings, bad doings with moolah. Did I call you on it?

You are every bit as American as we are. We are all in this together. We sink or swim as one. Thank you for your years of service to this country and for giving us the opportunity to see if we can make things a bit better for our 300 million fellow Americans — and for the rest of the world.

Thanks for acknowledging my membership in the United States of America. By the way, if you can make things "a bit better" I will eat my hat. After all, you sure helped out with the Iraq War with your lame film fantasy, Fahrenheit 911.

Now pull yourself together and let's go have a Frappuccino. ...*

Nah, Michael, I choose not to make nice. I hold you and your ilk responsible for our perceived failure in Iraq. Call it what you want, Michael. The results are still the same. You're like an alcoholic; you get crazy and create messes with your excessive behavior; then you expect the rest of us to say "we're sorry" for the damage you've done.

Of course, Iraq is a problem now. YOU and the media have created an impossible situation, and now you want us to say we're sorry. THEN, when we call you on it by identifying this typical leftist strategy, you accuse us of calling you unpatriotic. It worked, by the way. For a while.

And lastly, I resent you telling me over and over that this is my country too. Who the hell do you think you are?

Post Election Rant
With a naive and gullible electorate firmly convinced miracles will happen once Pelosi and Company take over the country, the next item on my list is to convince people we're on a precipice of destruction.

While the Dems morph even further left, daily events continue to threaten us. As Dick Durbin becomes all he could be, the president of Iran announced he has a surprise for the US which he will deliver very soon. His bellicosity is highlighted with his pronouncing a new holocaust. Wait a minute. I thought he didn't believe there was an old holocaust. No one's listening, though.

Anyway, on top of that bit of sunshine, we've had new missives from the bin Laden camp which indicates they (the Muslims) have not yet spilled enough American blood. It will be interesting to watch Cut and Run--21st Century Style. as El Qaeda ensconces the new Caliphate in Iraq. That's quite a price to pay for Murtha's new committee chair. But, then, the people have spoken.

So Many Threats, So Few Brains
Then there's China, whose subs have been shadowing our carrier, Kitty Hawk...undetected. Guess that's why the Chinese are called inscrutable. But, nevermind. God knows we'll help them all we can to build up their economy and defense systems. We're good at that. Damned sleeping dragons, anyway.

North Korea, albeit China's strategic problem, still has the ability to sell to the highest bidder the knowledge and material for nuke making. That's okay, though. The Dems think that if we dance with Kim Jong Il, ala M. Albright, we'll be safe. After all, Pelosi comes from that "Nuclear Free Zone" in the Bay area. You gotta trust somebody!

Lemme see. We also have a left reprise in Nicaragua as Daniel Ortega apparently won an actual election. With the guy in Boliva, a recycled Socialist, and the twit in Venezuela threatening the US, arguably the largest user of his oil, maybe folks who bought beachfront property along east coast of Central and South America should think about selling. It's doubtful a tiny Ecuadorian democratic government could withstand this wave of socialism, for instance. These folks give new meaning to the term eminent domain. Just ask exiled Cubans. But, we're fine. The new regime in Congress never met a socialist they didn't like. Besides, how else can they get back at us Republicans for that dastardly Iran-Contra deal? Everything old is new again in Washington.

What else? Well, domestically, we have a problem down south and up north. No longer do we have an immigration mess; rather, we've got a major national security problem. But, to be more sensitive, the policy has become narrowly focused on illegal aliens from Mexico. Those folks vote too, you know.

I almost forgot. There are two items the Dems haven't really come clean on. First of all, the pathologic Bush Haters want to impeach him. That's goes along with the judicial committee chair, J. Waxmann, who stated with regard to lawsuits against this administration, he's like a king in a harem: he knows what he wants to do but doesn't know where to start.

The second item is of course tax increases. They will happen. The only Democrat who understood tax cuts was John Kennedy, and he's dead.

It's the Power, Stupid.
So, as these stealth leftists in our government quickly take over, they'd best remember a very important fact. Winning an election is easy. Now they've got to govern. My hunch is they will reach too far and will fail within the first year. After all, they always have and always will--this tendency is inherent to their constitutions and ideology.

This is Howawd CoSell, Speaking of Spoooohrtz
Most of my girlfriends dislike that I'm a big sports fan, especially football. What can I say? I come by it honestly. My dad was an athletic coach.

Why People Hate Hollywood
I'm currently writing screenplays. As a result I talk via internet numerous screenwriters, some wannabes, some produced. I also come across agents, production assistants, and support folks and readers.

Friday Night Lights, the NBC production based on the Bessinger novel of the same name, came up as a subject for discussion. Many of you already know the storyline: small town Texas high school football and the craziness that surrounds it.

I responded to a post which stated that it was a real tragedy that there was so little to do in small towns that people have to resort to putting their children through this hell, that it is viscous and wrong and it's akin to Jon Benet Ramsey's situation. No, I'm not kidding. Of course, what this twit was really trying to say was that Texas was the end of the earth and the idiots there were no better than Neanderthals, what with the football games, and how tragic it is when a child would ask "Daddy, does God love football?"

Well, I'll admit to not being too subtle. I think his calling me a slack jawed yokel was what may have put me over the edge. I mentioned his possible gonadal challenge--well, he did say he wasn't a football fan. I think I may have reminded him about being the last one chosen for basketball. It was wrong, I know, but he had it coming.

Finally, My Point
Much of what this gentleman comes on his natural creative make up. He's paid to look beneath. That the beauty of any great movie: its subtext. I appreciate the artful aspect of it as much as anyone.

However, all I could think about during this discussion was his tired, dismissive attitude of an entire group of people. And then to be called stupid because I tried to explain that his attitude cut off discussion because he refuses to grant respect to those of us who disagree.

He continued to call me an idiot. We left it at that.

My Dad, the Coach
I remember my dad saying he was a teacher first, a coach second. His job was to teach character which is the foundation of all games, indeed life. Without trust, you can't play.

If that is what Hollywood calls Neanderthal, I guess it will have to stand. Regardless of the excesses which can occur in any endeavor (soccer comes to mind, business, relationships), I'm struck by the genuine, overall disbelief from these Hwood types that normal people actually to think the way my dad had. Moreover, they accuse me of not telling the full truth, or worse, make cuts about traditional ideals and practices, which they say they suspect, are not true anyway, as if I were in a dream for the many years I lived this reality.

To compare parents of competent, excited, worthwhile football players to someone who supposedly exploited their daughter by forcing her to be involved in beauty contests is indicative of the huge chasm between Hwood's reality and yours and mine.

This cynical view of life coming from the left in Hollywood, thought smart or cool by fanboys and the old media, pushes traditionalists like me further away from their particular form of art. In fact, I'm hard pressed to further involve myself.

I'm amazed there are still good stories being told. There are, of course. They're just awfully hard to find. Meanwhile, Friday Night Lights is a fantastic pentimento of life in in a small town in Texas. I recommend it.

My answer to another Hollywood whack job, Michael Moore, and his pledge to us hapless Republicans is forthcoming.

Speaker Hastert MUST Fight Back
It's time to act like a Democrat and go on as if nothing ever happened.

Republicans Must Step Up
It's now time for my fellow Republicans to call the Dem's bluff. The October surprises--Woodward's silly book (have you read it? I believe he's gone from journalist to mindreader.), Foley's scandal and the usual drip drip drip of "bad news" from the Middle East--have much more meaning this election. Let's look at the possibilities, shall we?

• A majority in the House: Wrangle as Chairman of Ways and Means, Pelosi as Speaker of the House, ad infinitum. I think I'll be sick.
• A shift in the Senate: Reid as Senate Majority Leader, people like Kerry, Durbin and Biden in more powerful positions than you can imagine. I fight the gag reflex as I write...
• The ability to prevent the president from prosecuting the war in a way that will make Viet Nam look like organized war games, you know, the usual way Dems fight wars. You think our casualties are bad now!

I have to stop. It's just too much to contemplate, what with the increase in my taxes, America hating and all.

I want Dennis Hastert to stay in his post, tell the Dems and the media to stuff it and lead the party toward victory in November. We cannot, must not show weakness. We've capitulated in the past and always paid for it. We have nothing, absolutely NOTHING, to apologize for.

Let the Dems suck toes, for all I care. This is war.

Beneath Bill's Rage
Looks like President Clinton hates turning 60 even more than we knew!

Baby Boomers Life Indiscretions
The Duchess of Windsor, that crone, used to say many miserably elitist things such as "one can never be too thin or too rich" and my favorite, "a woman who would tell her age would tell anything."

I turned 61 last August. That makes me one of those BBINOs (Baby Boomers in Name Only)--you know the kind. We are not too hip, but are always willing to learn.

Anyway, I place turning 60 right up there with colonoscopies and root canals. Evidently, so does Bill.

Expect Outbursts of Tears and Rages
My year of actually being 60 sucked more than turning 30. But now that I'm through it, here are my observations, predictions, rationales, bull.

The world is beginning to see the first of about twenty years of these self-indulgent displays, so gird yourselves and your children. Nevermind. If you're a child or a parent of a BBoomer, you've already done so.

The worst are those who as they reach a mature 60 realize they were wrong, all wrong, all the time, but are afraid to admit it. They likely force the issue until they are backed into a corner, and by year's end will come out with their tails between their legs. But there are plenty of fireworks.

Another type, the quiet Baby Boomer, who never got involved will probably decide this aging thing is not for them, and go through the last gasp of anti-aging strategies ranging from goat gonad implantation to face transplantation. Again, they will go along quietly most of the year, but expect larger lips. Isolation is the hallmark. This is due to the downtime from medical procedures. By age 61, however, it's hoped this type begins to see the impact hypervanity has on the quality of life.

A third type, the academic Baby Boomer, will perish. We'll never hear from him again because he stopped publishing and just as when he was alive, no one really cares what he thinks.

The fourth type--the narcissist--will tear you apart. And insist he tried like hell to get bin Laden.

Then They All Turn Sixty-One (or have died)...
And life is normal and interesting again.

Gas Bags
Good grief! Two of them in one place at one time!

Ahmadinejad
I've listened to him for twenty minutes now. He's a skillful little dude and uses specious quite well. However, he has forgotten that most Americans turned him off nineteen-and-a-half minutes ago.

Chavez
He's got a certain schoolboy look that just pisses me off. A bully. The best thing we can do is stop buying Citgo gas and tell everyone we know to do the same.

The Crazy Aunt in the Attic
OMG, I've become her!

Point-Counterpoint, Family Style
I received a wonderful counterpoint email to Planet California from one of my nephews. Since "internicine" politics has always intrigued me, I decided to respond and see where it takes us. Geographical tyranny being what it is, this infernal "e-mail" ironically has brought about unexpected relationships from family members we'd love to know better.

But, what if, as during America's internal wars, our political views drive us apart?

I remember the dinner table discussions at home and at Grandma's. They were always lively, terribly loud and wonderfully funny. That forum prepared each of its participants for the outside world. If nothing else, we learned how to disagree without being disagreeable, most of the time...in addition to timing our breathing so as not to lose our turn to speak.

Perhaps in our world of gotcha, we can learn from the dinner table forum as we venture into this new reality of instant communications, anonymous, unvetted opinion and healthy, natural generational differences. With that in mind, below is my response to my nephew's email.

Different World Views

Hi!

Thank you for your message this morning. I always love feedback regardless. It makes me a better observer and thus, a better writer.

Your world view and mine are vastly different. I come by mine via walking down many political roads. You may be surprised to know that I was a registered Democrat for six years. Then I became a registered Independent, and am now a middling Republican. Before my forays into progressive politics, I was always pretty independent.

The citations, Alterman, et al. provided in your email aren't foreign to me. I routinely read three newspapers a day, LA Times, Daily Californian and The Press Telegram and listen to all network coverage on television. Since I don't have much emotional investment in any candidate--never have had as I learned very early from your grandfather that every one of them, Dem, Repub, or other, has his eye on more power before anything else--I can only determine who will do what I think will work.

There's a new realism in the world; it is uncomfortable for many. The U.S. is the only post cold war superpower Incumbent upon that position, the U.S.has been forced to deal with foreign policy in a unipolar world. Mutally Assured Detruction (MAD) kept us honest, if nothing else, back then. Now, it's up to America. Who else is available and/or capable of responding to the threats that face our new world?

This sounds like fearmongering and preaching U.S.A. all the way. That, I believe, is our biggest personal difference. I call it realism. Its denouement will be determined eventually, regardless of what you and I say. The nuclear ambitions of Iran (God, think about the arms race vis a vis Saddam and Iran!) are pushing the rest of the world into making a decision. But, let's face it, the rest of the world is very worried. Again, in the unipolar world, it is up to the U.S. to stop it.

These policy skirmishes will continue for quite a while, I'm afraid, until again the kid has to get hit by a car before installing the stoplight. Historically, the U.S., will again move to contain the vagaries of all parties. The difference between now and the past is preemption. Unfortunately, America's detractors call it imperialism. There are volumes of historial data which indicate every president in every war has been accused of being an "imperial" president.

The reason: we're just not used to it. Americans are used to the opposite--inefficient and endless posturing until the problem either goes away or becomes uncontrollable. Usually, as with the early warnings of the Jihadists, the problem didn't go away. In fact, it became uncontrollable the minute the first plane hit the WTC.

Another huge difference, as I said, again is a new enemy who doesn't intend to draw back as per their own statements.

Again, our views are different. Mine are not, however, garnered from hearsay or your "You must watch Fox." I've come by my ideas honestly, believe me. Moreover, they come from years of study and political involvement at the grassroots level. I subscribe to the works of many think tanks, (Brookings, CSPC. AEI, e.g.,). With these involvements, I am exposed to the ideas of policy wonks and political types. I have met as many movers and shakers as any outsider. In fact, you'd be very surprised at whose hands I've shaken. Not bragging, just sayin...

So, please understand that when we discuss these issues, I'm not one of the minions of Fox or of right wing radio. In fact, I HATE right wing and left wing radio.

I would hope you would rather respect my opinions as devised and well thought out. Bring on the debate!

Meanwhile, hope you're doing well! Write soon.

Love always,

Auntie Andrea

Take a Muslim to Lunch
Do Muslims have a chip on their shoulders?

The Muslim Brotherhood, the 1920s hate group started by a bunch of Cairo Muslim men who preceded today's terrorist groups, now demand Pope Benedict apologize personally for his anti-Muslim statement...

Here's How I'd Apologize

• Gee, Fellas, I was just sayin...
• Does this mean you won't be celebrating the Holy Days with the rest of us?
• The Muslim Brotherhood. Say, aren't you the guys who started all this jihadism back in the day? You know, the ones who facilitated and financed the assassination of Anwar Sadat? Finances Hizbulloh and Al Qaeda, among others? Yeah, I remember who you are now. And you want what? An apology for a quotation from a Muslim from the 15th century? So much for intellectual honesty!
• Tell ya what, Messers. Imams, why don't we have a cartoon contest to see who is the more reasonable between us? No, you don't get to bring that pretty dagger with you.
• What's that you say? You won't speak to me because I'm an infidel woman? I'll have you know I never cheated on my husband! How dare you.
• If the Pope doesn't apologize you'll do what? Murder nuns, burn churches? Cause riots in every Muslim city in the world?

And if the Pope does apologize, you'll do what? Murder nuns, burn churches and cause riots in every Muslim city in the world?

That's exactly what I thought.

The Pope Needs to Stand His Ground

The idea that the entire world's media capitulates to the insane demands and rhetoric heard from the Muslim world is dangerous. The NY Times, for instance, says the Pope needs to retract his remarks.

A Blast From The Past
Just when we thought it was safe, the same old crowd of lawyers and Clintonistas revive their favorite tactic when someone dares to call them on their shortcomings. Perhaps the idea that they'll just sue their enemies to death was what was behind the Bin Laden escape from capture and or death all along.

"Ah didn't do ut."
The cast is the same: Bruce Lindsey, attorney for Bill Clinton, sends a letter to ABC in which he basically threatens their broadcast license if they show their miniseries on Sunday and Monday, "Path to 9/11."

Then there's Sandy Berger, the Feckless, who was caught on security tape stuffing telling documents into his socks in a vain attempt to thwart the 9/11 Commission's discovery of what happened before the World Trade Centers were hit. Blustering Berger can't abide a suggestion that he and his boss had missed an opportunity to get Bin Laden where he lived.

Don't forget Madeline Albright, dancing with Kim Jong Il, in celebration of the Clinton administration's appeasement of the North Korean dictator during the early years of that country's nuclear build-up. Many years later we find that Kim had his own celebration going on--the fact that he hoodwinked the US into giving him even more time to build a bomb. In regards to this film, she is incensed, shocked and mad as a hornet whose nest has been blown away by a garden hose.

And, of course, the Liar-in-Chief, proclaims "Ah just want people to tell the truth." Uh, so did we Americans, Bill. Guess it depends on what the definition of "truth" is.

None Dare Call it Censorship
Maybe it's just a style issue, but I don't recall Republicans going nuts over Michael Moore's depictions of President Bush in his two hate-filled "docudramas." Nor do I see Dems standing up en masse to protest the latest cinematic outrage in which President Bush is assassinated.

Oh, I know, it's an election season. But this display of Democrat cajones is almost more than I can take. True to form, the Clinton agenda always comes back to its original mission: sue the bastards.

Thanks for the read.

Appeasement: Twenty-First Century Style
I'm trying--really I am--to understand why today's antiwar groups insist on ignoring pre-WWII parallels and insist we take Jimmie Carter's advice and talk to Iran about their threats to western civilization.

They Can't Have it Both Ways
As Japan was preparing to bomb our Quonset huts and Pacific fleet into oblivion their people were also deep in discussion with President Roosevelt. In fact, if memory serves, the last conversation the Japanese ambassadors held with the U.S. was approximately one day before their attack.

Talking seemed to be the right course for Roosevelt. It placated his socialist, antiwar friends and showed America was taking the high road. Unfortunately, those meetings were nothing more than window dressing, which disguised despicable events to come.

While we were talking, the Japanese fleet contemplated whether to use torpedoes or bombs. In that case, words meant nothing. Roosevelt knew it; the Japanese knew it. War-weary Americans didn't want to know it. Roosevelt did his level best to shake the complacency of his countrymen. As usual, just as the corner that needs a stoplight, some kid has to get run over first before one is installed.

Hard as it is to comprehend, the Dems have now brought up Reagan's ability to talk us through the end of the cold war, pronouncing not a shot was fired in the meantime.

Of course what they don't understand is the fact that President Reagan's "conversation" was reinforced with a bunch of Pershing missiles sitting in Germany, aimed directly at Moscow.

If the Dems would step into their Go Back machine, they'd have to listen to their own words in this regard, i.e., yes, but the USSR was on its way out anyway. As I said, they can't have it both ways.

That Offensive I-Word
Leave it to the Dems to be put off by reality and truth. Islamofacists is a buzzword made up by Neocons, they say. How dare they scare the American public by comparing Uncle Dolfie and his Nazi regime with Ahmadinejad and Iran's theocratic thugs?

The Iranians have gone on record to explain in great demonstrative detail they will do away with non-Islamic folks (jihad) at home and abroad, destroy Israel as a people and a country, all the time insisting upon furthering their nuclear ambitions.

And we must open a dialogue with them?

We need to be scared into understanding there are people who, if given the opportunity, will destroy America. Think it can't happen? Great countries come and go. America is not exempt from history's breathtaking parallels of a complacent, naive citizenry who refuse to face reality. Words, in the face of annihilation, mean absolutely nothing.
