#1 A panel discussion entitled "Winning the War of Ideas" centered on the book of the same name by Thomas Frank

#2 Were these people ALWAYS this crazy? Or have eight years of defeats driven them nuts?
Either way, he is right. Time to break out the Raid.
Not because we want to "Preserve Tax Cuts for the Rich", but we have determined that their stupidity is a hazard to themselves and others.

#3 There are some I feel like killing sometimes - but not over tax cuts. Over disregarding the Constitution, over decimating the defense of the country (military and intelligence), over refusal to control our borders. Hmmmm, sounds like maybe the Clinton aides aren't the only ones who might feel worried.

#4 Civil wars are nasty. It might help to lower the level of the rhetoric to avoid one, but I only see the Dems, their leadership, and their cheerleading team at the DU and other Soros sponsored sites keep raising the volume. The zero factor is still in play. One shot and it can be 'Bloody Kansas' all over again on a national scale, but it can still be avoided. It appears the right finally is getting some backbone and is probably not going to back down, so it up to the left to pull the trigger to start the games. I suspect that when the dust settles a lot of migration will follow trail of thousands of crown loyalist to Canada and Europe after the War of Independence and thousands of confederates to Mexico and Brazil after the first Civil War.

#5 Franklin Roosevelt got us in World War II. They dragged the Republicans kicking and screaming. They didn't want to get in that war.

As far as that goes, it's true. It leaves out the fact that once we were in the war, the Republicans supported the war effort. Unlike, for example, this war. More people died on 9/11 than at Pearl Harbor, and most of the 9/11 dead were civilians. Yet the Democrats treat this war as if it's optional.

And before someone whines about Iraq not being involved, the first US invasions in WWII were mounted against French territories in Africa. France had not declared war on us, nor we on them, at the time...

I won't get into the Democrats' shameful behavior before, during, and after the Civil War.

#6 The poor scum just wants to make a buck and continue to feel special and relevant. Personally, I'm sick of the historical blah blah demos did this and pubs did that BS. A partisan recalculating old scores between political parties from sixty years ago using new math adds nothing to anything. He and his ilk have got alot to do with the problems our nation now faces. That is fairly recent and relevant history. He's made it fairly clear that he has got nothing real to offer today. Time for him to piss off and smoke that one in the hookah for a year or two before stepping up to try and snatch some slimelight at the DC clowntime conference for progress.

#7 For a really straightforward description of the inner philosophy of moonbats, I recommend a pre-Civil War book, "Cannibals All: Or, Slaves Without Masters", by George Fitzhugh. In it, Fitzhugh proposes that slavery is not just good, but *so* good, that 9 out of 10 people should be slaves. Of course, the book is written on the assumption that the author, and the reader, are of the "1 in 10" who deserve to be masters, not slaves. He goes on at length about how wonderful the life of a slave is, and how masters must be such fine people, to do all the "real" work to manage the happy slaves beneath them, who only have to do what their masters tell them. In other words, Fitzhugh and Hillary Clinton and company really are no different, intellectually; both in their belief in their own superiority, and their utter disdain and contempt for those they believe are beneath them.

#8 "The Clinton administration's national security efforts involved the right blend of "experience" and "strength.."
Begala went on to say...And Sandy Berger can prove it...oops...guess he's wearing the wrong pants tonight.

#12 How many times did the boy cry wolf before everyone no longer paid attention? I think the Democrats are about there now.

#14 "I was driving past the Pentagon when that plane hit" on Sept. 11, 2001. "I had friends on that plane; this is deadly serious to me," Begala said. "They want to kill me and my children if they can. But if they just kill me and not my children, they want my children to be comforted -- that while they didn't protect me because they cut my taxes, my children won't have to pay any money on the money they inherit," Begala said. "That is bulls*** national defense, and we should say that."

....and then a giant spring came out of his head and he started running in circles.

#17 Hitler, liked most Socialists of the period whether Left-wing or Right-wing, believed in Continetalism and or Mackinder's World Island - read Russia and Asia. His WW1-minded Generals and Admirals were the ones who cared most about attacking and invading England, and targeting Brit cities as opposed to Scapa Flow and destroying the Royal Navy in "decisive battle". Truth be told, iff Adolf's Generals and Admirals had followed his choices in the proper manner, the possib exists that England might had surrendered or sought armistice very early in the war, even before Pearl Harbor, ala VICHY PARIS + VICHY LONDON. Compared to Stalin or Mao, HItler however defective or medic ill was by far the superior war strategist-planner to both.

#18 As for the Demoleft, I have no probs if there Party goes into history, as I sincerely doubt their incessant and perennial Wafflings, Dialecticisims, and professional Policratisms, etc. is what Jefferson, Jackson, or even the early laissez faire Socialists-Utopians had in mind! I can see OLD HICKORY now going ballistic on learning that the Demoleft want America to obey a UNO and world community whose Mandates are NOT to be obeyed except via Media-based propaganda, or not to be obeyed if the POTUS is a Democrat.
