Tin Ears or Tinfoil Hats?
At first I thought nonsense like the following was just coming from the nuts at DailyKos or our commie friend:
"Bush's idea of justice is bombs falling out of the sky?"
"Why is he dead again just now? I wonder if Karl's getting indicted tomorrow..."
"Those pics of Abu Z look like they just thawed him out just in time for the elections."
"Zarqawi was quite probably a psy ops job in the first place, so what does that make his "death"? ...Keep your eyes on the prize....Haditha."
"Just in time to hide the fact they're trying to cut the estate tax for the uber wealthy"
"Yes the timing of Zarqawi's death does seem too good for Bush to be true. It reeks of distraction politics."
Then I find out that many elected Democrats believe the same shtus:
Some Democrats, breaking ranks from their leadership, today said the death of terrorist leader Abu Musab Zarqawi in Iraq was a stunt to divert attention from an unpopular and hopeless war.
"This is just to cover Bush's [rear] so he doesn't have to answer" for Iraqi civilians being killed by the U.S. military and his own sagging poll numbers, said Rep. Pete Stark, California Democrat. "Iraq is still a mess -- get out."
Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich, Ohio Democrat, said Zarqawi was a small part of "a growing anti-American insurgency" and that it's time to get out.
"We're there for all the wrong reasons," Mr. Kucinich said.
Meanwhile, Nihlist in Golf Pants (what a great name!) has a list of the Top 11 Things That Anti-War Protesters Would Have Said At the Normandy Invasion on D-Day (Had There Been Anti-War Protesters At Normandy). My favorite are:
11. No blood for French Wine!
10. It’s been two and a half years since Pearl Harbor and they still haven’t brought Admiral Nagumo to justice!
5. We are attacked by Japan and then attack France? Roosevelt is worse than the Kaiser!
4. Why bring democracy to Europe by force and not to Korea or Vietnam? I blame racism!
1. I don't see Roosevelt or Churchill storming the beaches -- they're Chicken Hawks!
