The left and the right are about to go good night.

As has happened since the dawn of history, the center will rule and the left and right be the fool.

arguments like this one are the reason why people hate politics and politicians. “ignore what you think is right and follow the party line.” congratulations, you’ve managed to parody yourself quite well.

Denounce the two parties! Abolish ear marks, infighting, non public service, lies, deceit, special interest pandering, kick backs, payoffs, and ego-centricity! Term limits, political party abolishment! Let the common man stand up and tell us what he will do for us and let the AMERICAN people decide. No more lobbyists, no free lunches, no fund raisers, no moveon.org influence (what’s that Hillary?). It’s time for the common man to take back the reins! Wake up people! Your country is being given away to Mexico, China, Canada. Ask a Canadian Truck Driver what he is doing next time you see one on our interstates running east or west. Per NAFTA, they are supposed to bring product in, and take our product back! Ask them why then are they underbidding American Trucking Companies and running our products around our country. Now we are letting in Mexican Trucking Companies? Ask Ted (Hiccup) Kennedy how he can criticize when he left a defenseless woman to die at the bottom of the Salty Marsh. What happened to Mr. Reed’s questionable land deal in the Vegas area? Excuse me Mr. Edwards (Greentree Lending), foreclosed on any of those “poor” Americans that you care so much for? Hey Hillary, next time you need a pap, go to Canada Eh!

Ms Hamsher represents the worst of what is going on… instead of disagreeing on policy, she condones attacking the character of Gen Petraeus. He has served over 30 years in the military and has been deployed 4 years away from family since 9/11. I’m sure if there was any support for MOVEON in the military, its now dissipated.

One need to remember how the military brass sucked up to Rumsfield and his (disastrous) handling of the Iraq war.

But that was so very, very long ago and is now ancient history, right?

Petraeus is a good man, but Bush owns him.

The Reich-wing can count on Americas having a historical memory of a few days.

The right is fearful of dissent.

It’s scares the living hell out of them.

Their ultimate dream is to control ideas at the barrel of a gun.

Refusal to conform to the authority is a big-time problem for the Riech-wing.

The Moveon nuts are going to drive the center away from the Dems and the smart people know it. They are noisy, they spit out lots of cash but they only wield so many votes. In the end, they are not only stupid extremists but wrong for America and the Democrats.

Few coments above on how horrible the MoveOn add was. As horrible as calling abortion supporters baby killers. Maybe as horrible as 30 years of demonizing liberals. How bout as horrible as labeling anyone critisizing the leadership as hating the troops? Give me some kind of scale here.
As far as belittling the scope of the audience of FDL and MMFA. I can’t speak about the audience here though I believe it is very respectable. MMFA is the top site for its class. That being a media watch dog. Come on over and we’ll politly hand you your fundament.
