Is Arafat dead? The Politburo Diktat has the scoop.

The leftie Londoners have a way with words I think.....

Brian Reade in the Daily Mirror, who attributed the President's victory to: "The self-righteous, gun-totin', military-lovin', sister-marryin', abortion-hatin', gay-loathin', foreigner-despisin', non-passport-ownin' rednecks, who believe God gave America the biggest dick in the world so it could urinate on the rest of us and make their land 'free and strong'."

Forty five per cent of Hispanics voted for the President, as did 25 per cent of Jews, and 23 per cent of gays. The Hispanic number is big and wonderful. The Jew and gay number is small but gratifying. But it does sorta discount the lyrical words of our across the pond wierdo.
You know, I can see why he thinks these insults just really are the worst you can say about someone from their wacky point of view, but "military loving????' That's akin to "sister-marryin???" Joining the military and incest.......same thing to them. Hmmm.....can anyone say 'twilight zone?"
And if he really thought about it he might not have wanted to use "the biggest dick in the world," because if you think about it, isn't that a compliment? I have always heard that size matters.

Mark Steyn, who I copied the above Brain Reade post from had this to say in response:
"In all but six states, the Republican vote went up: the urinating rednecks have increased their number not just in Texas and Mississippi but in Massachusetts and California, both of which have Republican governors. You can drive from coast to coast across the middle of the country and never pass through a single county that voted for John Kerry: it's one continuous cascade of self-righteous urine from sea to shining sea. States that were swing states in 2000 - West Virginia, Arkansas - are now solidly Republican, and once solidly Democrat states - Iowa, Wisconsin - are now swingers. The redneck states push hard up against the Canadian border, where if your neck's red it's frostbite. Bush's incontinent rednecks are everywhere: they're so numerous they're running out of sisters to bunk up with."

Please read the whole thing. Steyn is worth is weight in gold.

This is the thing about Americans. Don't tell us we are stupid if we don't vote your way. I honestly think the leftie movie stars and Michael Moore did more harm than good for the left. The European condescending e-mails to Ohio did more for Bush than any of the swiftboat ads, windsurfing and skiing commercials against Kerry ever could have.
Another thing I think that hurt Kerry is having his people simply say "they are lying" about every single thing that came out about Kerry. Whether it was swiftboat ads, liberal voting record, or non support of the military. Because when things then came out about Bush, like the National Guard accusations, lost explosives in Iraq ect. The public just shrugged and said "oh, they all lie." and listened to none of it. Half the time I didn't know what to believe on either side myself.
There is this thing called the truth. And I really think that it is time the media got back on that bandwagon. Instead of spinning a story, show both sides, and at least TRY to get at the truth. The public is SICK of it, I can tell you that.

I have been e-mailing a liberal friend who insists that Iraq had nothing to do with terrorism. If you read my blog, then you saw my post on Operation Viking Hammer, where our special forces went into Iraq at the beginning of the war and brought down a international terrorist training camp. This was a story I got from U.S. News and World Report with an inbred reporter. Several soldiers got silver medals of valor and the like. It is documented military fact, and a reporter from a msm magazine there to report on the accuracy. I told my friend this and he had the same reaction a commenter on my blog had. It wasn't true. It. Just. Was. Not. True. How do you argue with people like that? These are not stupid people. But their mindset is so against Bush and this war that I honestly believe that if tomorrow we found WMD so incredible they could have blown up the world in the basement of one of Saddam's palaces, they would insist that Rumsfield planted it there.

Ok, my funny quote of the day is a bit irreverent, but given the quotes above I decided today was the day to go with it.
